"Brighter Day" was one of the first songs I recorded, which is why is has a canned drum track in the background. I call this song 'really rough', but, aside from that canned drum track, it's pretty damned decent, and one of my favorites. For many years, the song went without the guitar solo in the bridge, which was originally meant to be a saxophone solo, but I was never able to buy a saxophone that sounded good enough for me to record with. After I lost the saxophone I grew up with in a burglary, I realized how nice that old sax really was when I started trying to find a replacement. In 2012, I touched up the balancing, and added the solo. Brighter Day also features an antique Hohner Melodica during the chorus. The music video was also made as a kind of 'tribute' to an old video game, "Planescape Torment", which is an artistic masterpiece of a game--one that had a profound impact on me, influences my music in some places, and was special for me, and for my friend--the subject of this song. "Brighter Day" was intended to be SONG 4 of the original album now named: "The Kokiri Project - Dare the Oblivion" |

As I drown In a sea of sorrow Are you out there, my friend Wishing we can turn back the time? A brighter day If I'd never crossed the line? But I guess we'll never say If we can find our way Ever again... Ever again... The regret I carry It weighs me down Eats me up inside And it weighs me down It weighs me down I waste away inside All the years That we've shared now flash before me What can change the nature of a man? When all you know and love Is gone ... like grains of sand And it's lost as the wind blows Left you in the rows All alone... So alone... The regret I carry It weighs me down Eats me up inside And it weighs me down It weighs me down I Waste away inside Forgive me, my brother A second chance to make amends If I can make a brighter day We'll all be well again How can I live on with this Paralysis? |
