Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And life is goin' on.
Time is tickin', and I'm sleepin'
I feel it comin' on, I feel it comin' on
We keep it comin' on, so keep livin' on, livin' on
Waiting on today, tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
So I won't run away
I'm missin', days are back then
And life was goin' on, alive and kickin'
Waitin' for meanin', and now were movin' on,
And now were movin' on, we keep it movin' on,
So keep livin' on, livin' on
Waiting on today, tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting on today, tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away
Waiting on today, tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting on today, tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away
I feel it comin' on
And we run
And now we're movin' on
And we run
I feel it comin' on
And we run
And now we're movin' on
And we run
I feel it comin' on
I gotta join it now!
And now we're movin' on
I gotta go right now!
I feel it comin' on
I gotta live it now!
So keep livin' on, livin' on
Waiting on today, tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting on today, tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away
Waiting on today, tell me it's ok
So I won't run away
Waiting on today, tell me that you'll stay
So I won't run away

Lyrics
Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known
Can't live for tomorrow,
Tomorrow's much too long
I'll burn my eyes out
Before I get out
I wanted more
Than life could ever grant me
Bored by the chore
Of saving face
Today is the greatest
Day I've never known
Can't wait for tomorrow
I might not have that long
I'll tear my heart out
Before I get out
Pink ribbon scars
That never forget
I tried so hard
To cleanse these regrets
My angel wings
Were bruised and restrained
My belly stings
Today is
Today is
Today is
The greatest day
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you
Today is the greatest
Today is the greatest day
Today is the greatest day
That I have ever really known

Day I’ve ever known

I tried so hard
To cleanse these regrets
My angel wings
Were bruised and restrained
My belly stings

I don't know what traumas and challenges you've experienced, and I want to offer some enlightening advice, but I genuinely don't feel like I'm in the position to offer anything. I would argue to change your perspective, but that only works for me because I'm not suffering too hard right now (college kid, living at home with folks).
That's not to say I haven't been severely depressed before, but luckily a change in schools helped a lot. Unfortunately, it's not usually that easy to get out of the rut. I was scared to make change because of the uncertainty, but realized that I didn't really have many friends to begin with, so what's the worst that can happen? More bullying? Not likely since literally the entire grade was new (the school had just opened a middle school at the time)
I currently have an addiction as well (video games). Luckily my poison of choice isn't something I'm chemically dependent on, so I'm grateful for that.
When it comes to addiction, I'd recommend maybe winging yourself off of your drug of choice (unless you're clean, congrats, and ignore thi) and letting those around you be aware of your issues and tell them that you have a plan and ask them to monitor you closely, so you don't relapse. I've been in situations where I'm like "I've done a good job, let me play for an hour" and realize I just spent all day online. I need my folks to moderate my behavior so I don't 'overdose'. I watch YouTube and write programs to prevent relapse
regardless, hope your life gets better : )

Oh man, I don't know where to begin.
First of all--Thank you for your comment. It shows empathy, and we all sure as hell need more of that.
There are a couple things though...
My drug of choice with video games has to be Mario Bros. 3 on original NES, haha. Showing my age here.
I'm not quite sure what withdrawal from video games would be like, but any addict will tell you this--Be happy it's not drugs.
*Please do not suggest "winging it" to get off chemicals though. This is dangerous. Withdrawal from a whole assortment of things can kill you. I've been there. Weaning is the best. I've lost enough friends.
Enjoy the living at home thing, it won't last. And college... well I was forced to go to community college by my parental units. I preferred to work instead. Back in those days jobs were easier to find. I went to that college, but would just leave. Then four planes were hijacked and all our lives changed. No more fake going to school. I cut my folks off years ago, no contact. Clueless to this day as to why they even had kids. So be happy you don't have to worry if you'll have a place to sleep tonight.
I don't really know what to say to ya though, you're so young. I haven't talked to anyone your age in decades. I could be old enough to be your mom maybe (41 today).
I worry for the younger generations. You guys missed out on so much. I never had kids so I don't really know the "adult" advice to give ya.
I just want you to be strong, happy and don't let the world get ya down (too much). We all need you young folks.
Anyways, I did get off my drug of choice (heroin) like 4ish years ago when fentanyl took over. Shit's not worth it. But when you're 41 and have been chemically dependent since age 13 your brain and body change. I will never be fully "sober", nor do I want to be. Some people just truly need the help of meds.
One bit of advice I can give ya with your video game issue, I would try to start to swap that out a bit (wean!) with something else you like so you're not playing as much. And don't ever beat yourself up if you slip. Relapse is part of recovery.
Thank you for talking to me. You seem like a good egg. Back to my B-Day Breakfast Beer. I'm rooting for you.--C

This song really embodies the feeling of “having nothing specific to be sad about, but also having nothing to be happy about”
@okjeffy6581
To me, it’s the feeling of not knowing if you should be happy or sad.
