Everyday

The lyrics describe someone struggling with a love that seems impossible to express or act on. The speaker feels lost and deeply attached, yet repeatedly tries to calm their feelings and carry on. As the song develops, the hope of simply “trying” gives way to exhaustion: each day feels harder, even though the speaker keeps making the effort.

Several images show how powerful and confusing this attachment feels. Love “makes you blind” suggests that strong feelings can make someone less able to see clearly or behave as usual. Being “knocked off my feet” conveys shock and emotional overwhelm, as if love has physically thrown the speaker off balance. The “fire inside” that will never “see the light of day” suggests intense feelings that must remain hidden or cannot be openly expressed.

The song leaves the reason for this separation unclear. The speaker says that “the book closes” and that the two try to forget, but the feelings remain; this could point to a relationship ending, or to a love that was never fully lived. “Our lives” and “ourselves” also hint that the other person may share the sadness, though the lyrics do not confirm this. The result is a tension between accepting that life goes on and feeling unable to let go.
