--- Beautiful Day ---

On the news, early morning
Hadn't even left my bed
Took a minute through the crying
'Til I made out what they said

There was an accident at dawn
Both sides have launched their bombs
It was a beautiful day

Wandered out with a coffee
While my neighbor mowed his lawn
Only had 20 minutes
'Til the seaboard would be gone

The pollen made me rub my eyes
Not a cloud was in the sky
It was a beautiful day

Gotten used to thinking everything's the same
But I finally stopped hoping for the day
I could look around and find that everything had changed
Now, finally

Walked into a supermarket
Drifted through the empty store
Through the blue fluorescent lighting
That's reflecting on the floor

The backwards boXes in a row
I never noticed them before
It was a beautiful day

Gotten used to thinking everything's the same
But I finally stopped hoping for the day
I could look around and find that everything had changed
Now, finally

The missles blotted out the sky




I never thought to wonder why
It was a beautiful day

Overall Meaning

The song "Beautiful Day" by Gateway Worship depicts the juxtaposition of a seemingly ordinary day with the harsh realities of the world. The lyrics open with the singer waking up to the news of an accident and bombings, highlighting the alarming presence of tragedy even from the moment they start their day. Despite this somber start, the individual slowly becomes aware of the beauty surrounding them - the neighbor mowing the lawn, the clear sky, and the everyday activities taking place.


As the day progresses, the singer continues to experience moments of beauty amidst the chaos, such as the peaceful scene at the supermarket and the light reflecting off the floor. These small, simple moments contrast with the backdrop of destruction and conflict, emphasizing the fragile and fleeting nature of beauty in the midst of darkness.


The repetition of the phrase "It was a beautiful day" serves as a poignant reminder of finding beauty and hope even in the midst of despair. The lyrics explore themes of perception and perspective, showing how one can shift their focus from the turmoil and devastation to appreciate the small wonders and joys that still exist in the world.


The abrupt reference to missiles blotting out the sky at the end of the song serves as a powerful conclusion, underscoring the abrupt and unexpected nature of tragedy that can shatter moments of peace and beauty. Ultimately, "Beautiful Day" by Gateway Worship conveys a message of resilience, urging listeners to find moments of beauty and light even in the darkest of times, and to hold onto hope amidst the chaos and uncertainty of the world.


Line by Line Meaning

On the news, early morning
Waking up to the news in the morning


Hadn't even left my bed
Still in bed


Took a minute through the crying
Took some time to process the sad news


'Til I made out what they said
Until I understood what was being reported


There was an accident at dawn
An accident happened early in the morning


Both sides have launched their bombs
Both parties have initiated hostilities


It was a beautiful day
Ironically, despite the chaos, it was a beautiful day


Walked into a supermarket
Entered a grocery store


Drifted through the empty store
Casually walked through the deserted store


Through the blue fluorescent lighting
In the presence of the artificial blue light


That's reflecting on the floor
Causing reflections on the ground


The backwards boxes in a row
Noticing the boxes arranged in an unusual manner


I never noticed them before
Never paid attention to them previously


The missles blotted out the sky
The missiles obscured the sky


I never thought to wonder why
Didn't pause to question the situation

Don't look at me
Every day is so wonderful
Then suddenly it's hard to breathe
Now and then I get insecure
From all the pain
I'm so ashamed
I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring me down, oh no
So don't you bring me down today
To all your friends you're delirious
So consumed in all your doom
Trying hard to fill the emptiness
The pieces gone, left the puzzle undone
Is that the way it is?
You are beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring you down, oh no
You are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring you down, oh no
So don't you bring me down today
No matter what we do
(No matter what we do)
No matter what we say
(No matter what we say)
We're the song inside the tune (Yeah)
Full of beautiful mistakes
And everywhere we go
(And everywhere we go)
The sun will always shine
(The sun will always, always shine)
And tomorrow we might wake on the other side
'Cause we are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes, words won't bring us down, no, no
We are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring us down, oh, no
So don't you bring me down today
Ooh-oh-oh, yeah
Don't you bring me down today
Yeah, ooh
Don't you bring me down
Ooh, today

"Don't look at me .."
First line of the song.
She completed her vocal in one take,
and they decided to keep this spoken
line as the first line to the song.
Before she started to sing it, she told
her friend, who had accompanied her
to the studio for moral support -
"Don't look at me .."
