 Song 135

Hey everybody, my fellow music nerds, lovers, or just people looking for some new songs to enjoy. Welcome back to the blog! I have a new song by a band that I grew up with. Daughtry! Who I think does not get enough recognition or credit, that man is a phenomanal singer! For the longest time he's done mainly soft rock, but lately he's branched out into more heavier stuff. Which I am here for. This song that I am going over today is called The Day I Die. The intro is very easy listening, very good set up. Almost like an action movie soundtrack. I think there might be some violin action up in there. Bringing us into the first verse: "Haven't seen the light of day since God knows when, couldn't force a smile even if I tried. My heart is empty and my bones won't mend, feels like the river's running dry." Wow, I can feel the emotion and depth in this one. The chorus is where those freaking amazing vocals come into play. The chorus: "And I keep on dreaming of the day I die, where I escape the darkness in my own mind. It's like a mental funeral, something beautiful. I wanna stay, but I know I gotta let it go. I keep on dreaming of the day I die." I feel like this song doesn't need an analyzation, I think it speaks for itself on this one. Plus I don't wanna take away from the deep and emotional words. Second verse: "And I don't wanna wake up, melancholy creeps in like a thief in the night. Resentment tries to have its day, I know I'm just another dog in their fight. Feeding on the scraps of my mistakes." Really beautiful. The bridge on this one, doesn't have any new lyrics but I'm still gonna put it in. "And I don't wanna wake up, and I don't wanna wake up, yeah. And I don't wanna wake up, yeah. Oh, I'm dreaming, keep on dreaming. I keep on dreaming, I keep on dreaming, yeah." I'm serious you all need to listen to this song, it's so freaking good. Please do yourself a favor, and go listen to it right now! 

See you next time :)
