"Lonely Day" features a dreary musical theme with a heavy chorus and a dual guitar solo near the end. The chorus is notable for featuring the double superlative "most loneliest".
The song is featured in the 2007 film Disturbia, as well as the film's trailer; however, it is not included in the film's soundtrack. Daron did not write the song as a tribute to his brother as rumored, as Daron is an only child.
The music video features the band on a tour bus with interspliced shots of Hollywood and sections on fire. About 45 seconds into the video, there is a reference to the Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here album sleeve on a reflected piece of glass. The doodle that bassist Shavo Odadjian is seen to be sketching in the video can be found on his Facebook profile.

System of a Down Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And it's mine
The most loneliest day of my life
Such a lonely day
Should be banned
It's a day that I can't stand
The most loneliest day of my life
Such a lonely day
Shouldn't exist
It's a day that I'll 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
It's a day that I'm glad I survived
The song "Lonely Day" by System of a Down is a melancholic, introspective piece that offers a glimpse into the mind of a person who is experiencing a sense of loneliness and isolation. The opening lyrics, "Such a lonely day, and it's mine, the most loneliest day of my life," sets the tone of the song and captures the themes of aloneness and sadness. The repetition of the phrase "lonely day" emphasizes the feeling of loneliness, almost making it a character in the song.
The lyrics suggest that the character is experiencing a feeling of despair and hopelessness. They wish that the day, this "lonely day," would be banned and that it shouldn't exist. The character is struggling to cope with their emotions and is desperate for someone to share their experiences with. The line "And if you go, I wanna go with you, and if you die, I wanna die with you," highlights the character's dependency on another person to cope with the emotional turmoil they are experiencing.
The closing lyrics "such a lonely day, and it's mine, a day that I'm glad I survived," suggests that the character has come through their period of loneliness and has emerged with a sense of gratitude and appreciation for the difficult times they went through. Overall, the song is a reflection of the universal human experience of isolation and loneliness, and a testament to the need for human connection and support in times of emotional distress.
