Your Day Will Come
Streetlight Manifesto Lyrics
A young lady leaves her mother
With no one to love her
To protect her from the world
And I have seen the monsters
That will haunt her
That’ll tear her all apart
And at her gravestone
We will remember
Just where we were
And I still remember the day that we left her
And that's when she said that she knows
How it goes
And we sang
[Chorus: x2]
Your day will come, your day will come, your day will come
And no matter what they say
It won’t matter if you pray or if you sin
Cause in the end
It’s all the same
Young man becomes a soldier
And he isn’t much older
Than a boy and that’s a shame
They will lead him into battle
And the medals when he comes home rearranged
I have to say so
Of the man with the halo
He will obey he fall into place
Remember [?] but never forgive them
Ensuring the bulk of the blame
What a shame
And we'll see
If I only had a dollar
For every horror
That befalls my fellow man
And they will work another hour
But I’d grow sour
From the guilt and bitterness
The luck on the draw will
Determine the fallen
And everyone else will relax and fall
But what will you do when
They come looking for you friend?
I hope that you’re brave, and you’re strong
Through it all
[Chorus]

Streetlight Manifesto is a third wave ska punk band from New Brunswick, New Jersey, under the creative leadership of singer/guitarist Tomas Kalnoky. Since forming in 2002, the band has released four full-length albums.
Several of Streetlight's members were already well known among the New Jersey ska community for their roles in past ska bands from that area, most notably Catch 22's Tomas Kalnoky, James Egan, Mike Soprano, and Josh Ansley, as well as One Cool Guy's Stuart Karmatz, Pete Sibilia, Dan Ross, and Chris Paszik.

The band's first album, Everything Goes Numb, was released on August 26, 2003, and was distributed by Victory Records. They headlined their first ever show at Rutgers University on December 9, 2003 in front of a sold out audience.
The line-up has gone through several changes since the band's conception and currently consists of Matt Stewart on trumpet, Mike Brown on alto and baritone saxophone, Jim Conti on alto and tenor saxophone, Tomas Kalnoky on guitar and lead vocals, Pete McCullaugh on bass guitar, Karl Lyden on trombone, and Chris Thatcher on drums.
Though the band has enjoyed little mainstream commercial success, they have received acclaim in alternative music circles, and their debut album is currently in Interpunk.com's top 100 items, over 2 years after its release. In addition, they regularly sell out their live shows, and their first few shows at Rutgers and The Stone Pony not only sold out, but had people coming from as far as Minnesota and Canada. Their second album, a reworking of Catch 22's Keasbey Nights was released on March 7, 2006.
Streetlight Manifesto's third album, entitled Somewhere in the Between came out on November 13, 2007. Rumors also have it that the band is currently working on a series of 8 albums entitled "The 99 Songs of Revolution" in co-operation with Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution, a side-project of singer Tomas Kalnoky slated for release in early 2009.
On November 17, 2009, the band's website announced that "99 Songs of Revolution: Volume One" has been ready for release for quite some time but "some record labels are just plain horrendous." They are also in the process of arranging a tour for 2010 but will spend some time in the studio until they have "a few records to release."
The first album of 99 Songs of Revolution was released on March 16, 2010. On this CD, the band covered songs by artists such as The Postal Service, Radiohead, and NOFX.
