Solitary Experiments Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No second chance don't hesitate
The way of life seems difficult
Each up and down emotions overflow
Another day is gone it follow
The dusk and the unknown
Whatever happened
And resist all the forthcoming fears
Another time is come
We are suffering to be strong
No matter which problems
We must overcome
There's a light on the end
Of the way it is worth to stay
A blissful world is breaking down
The insight hurts and make me sad
A desperated cry from far away
But time goes on it's not too late
Don't try to hide there is no place
Where you can go to rest in peace
The only thing you have to do
Is face the fear what are you waiting for
Another day is gone it follow
The dusk and the unknown
Whatever happened
We don't falling down on our knees
And resist all the forthcoming fears
Another time is come
We are suffering to be strong
No matter which problems
We must overcome
There's a light on the end
Of the way it is worth to stay
The lyrics of Solitary Experiments's Another Day is Gone are about the difficulties that people face in life and the need to be strong in the face of those challenges. The singer of the song realizes that life is not always fair and that there are no second chances. The ups and downs in life are emotional and can be overwhelming, but one must face them head-on. The song suggests that life is like a show that must go on no matter what, and it is up to the individual to resist their fears and push through whatever problems come their way.
As the day ends and darkness falls, the unknown looms, and the singer is reminded that nothing can be taken for granted. However, they refuse to give up and keep pushing on, knowing that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Even though the world may seem to be breaking down and everything is falling apart, the singer encourages himself to keep going, to face his fears and not hide from them.
Overall, the song is about the necessity of perseverance and the will to overcome obstacles as they appear. Life may seem difficult, but one must keep moving forward and not give in to fear or despair.

a great song to listen to while watching a golden sunset

Great production values, like a lot of their songs. Given the low hits, probably their marketing isn't so good. That said, this song is best played CRANKED.
