Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Such a lonely day
And it's mine
The most loneliest day of my life

Such a lonely day
Should be banned
This day that I can't stand
The most loneliest day of my life
The most loneliest day of my life

Such a lonely day
Shouldn't exist
A day that Ill never miss
Such a lonely day
And it's mine
The most loneliest day of my life

And if you go, I wanna go with you
And if you die, I wanna die with you

Take your hand and walk away

The most loneliest day of my life
The most loneliest day of my life
The most loneliest day of my life
Life

Such a lonely day




And it's mine
A day that I'm glad I survived

Overall Meaning

The song "Lonely Day" by System Of A Down is a melancholic piece that reflects on loneliness and the painful feelings that come with it. The repeated line "Such a lonely day and it's mine" emphasizes the personal nature of the experience, as though the singer is acknowledging that loneliness is something that they personally own, as if it is a part of their very being. The lyrics suggest that this is perhaps the most lonely day of their life, something that they cannot stand and wish could be banned. In a way, the day has become personified and is responsible for the feelings of isolation and despair that the singer is experiencing.


The following lines express how the singer wishes they could escape the loneliness, but can't seem to do so. The repetition of the phrase "The most loneliest day of my life" highlights this sense of inescapable isolation. The final lines, "And if you go, I wanna go with you / And if you die, I wanna die with you," convey the desperate longing for a meaningful connection with someone else, even if it means dying together. The song concludes with a bittersweet acknowledgement that despite the pain and loneliness, the singer is still glad to have survived the day.
