Someday
Julian Casablancas
In many ways, they'll miss the good old days
Someday
Someday
Yeah, it hurts to say, but I want you to stay
Sometimes
Sometimes
When we was young, oh man, did we have fun
Always
Always
Promises, they break before they're made
Sometimes
Sometimes
Oh, Maya says I'm lacking in depth
I will do my best
You say you want to stand by my side
Darling, your head's not right
Ah, see, alone we stand, together we fall apart
Yeah, I think I'll be alright
I'm working so I won't have to try so hard
Tables, they turn sometimes
Oh, someday
No, I ain't wasting no more time
(Trying, trying)
And now my fears they come to me in threes
So I
Sometimes
Say, fate, my friend, you say the strangest things
I find, sometimes
Oh, Maya says I'm lacking in depth
Shit, I will try my best
You say you want to stand by my side
Darling, your head's not right
Ah, see, alone we stand, together we fall apart
Yeah, I think I'll be alright
I'm working so I won't have to try so hard
Tables, they turn sometimes
Oh, someday
I ain't wasting no more time
A Nostalgia e a Realidade em Someday dos The Strokes
A música Someday da banda The Strokes, lançada no álbum 'Is This It' em 2001, é uma composição que mistura nostalgia, reflexões sobre o crescimento e a complexidade dos relacionamentos. A banda, conhecida por ser uma das precursoras do renascimento do rock de garagem nos anos 2000, traz em suas letras um olhar crítico e ao mesmo tempo sentimental sobre a vida cotidiana e as relações humanas.
A letra de Someday parece refletir sobre a passagem do tempo e a saudade dos 'bons velhos tempos', uma época de juventude e diversão descompromissada. A repetição do termo 'someday' (algum dia) sugere uma esperança ou expectativa para o futuro, mas também pode ser interpretada como uma procrastinação de enfrentar a realidade. A música aborda a dor de querer que alguém fique, apesar das dificuldades, e a aceitação de que promessas são muitas vezes quebradas.
O personagem mencionado na música, Maya, acusa o narrador de faltar profundidade, o que pode ser visto como uma crítica às vezes ácida que as pessoas próximas fazem sobre nosso caráter ou comportamento. A frase 'alone we stand, together we fall apart' (sozinhos nós resistimos, juntos nós desmoronamos) é particularmente poderosa, sugerindo que, em alguns relacionamentos, a proximidade pode levar ao colapso, em vez de fortalecer. A música termina com uma resolução de não desperdiçar mais tempo, o que pode indicar uma decisão de seguir em frente e focar no presente, em vez de se prender ao passado ou a expectativas futuras.
In many ways, they'll miss the good old days
De várias formas, eles sentirão falta dos bons velhos tempos
