its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
One day
It will happen
One day, one day
It will all come true
One day
When you're ready
One day, one day
When you're up to it
The atmosphere
Will get lighter
And two suns ready
To shine just for you
I can feel it
I can feel it
One day
It will happen
One day, one day
It will all make sense
One day
It will blossom
One day, one day
When you're ready
An aeroplane
Will curve gracefully
Around the volcano
With the eruption
That never lets you down
I can feel it
I can feel it
And the beautifulness
Fireworks will burn in
In the sky
Oh just for you
I can feel it
I can feel it
One day
One day
One day
One day
It will happen
One day, one day
It will all come true
One day
When you're ready
One day, one day
When you're up to it
The atmosphere
Will get lighter
And two suns ready
To shine just for you
I can feel it
I can feel it
One day
It will happen
One day, one day
It will all make sense
One day
It will blossom
One day, one day
When you're ready
An aeroplane
Will curve gracefully
Around the volcano
With the eruption
That never lets you down
I can feel it
I can feel it
And the beautifulness
Fireworks will burn in
In the sky
Oh just for you
I can feel it
I can feel it
One day
One day
One day
One day

Word Alive, The
This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Our interpretations are relative based on our lives...
Mine has to do with how I feel about my overwhelmed, depressed, anxious teenage daughter. "One day, when you're ready... " I actually wrote the lyrics on my daughter's bathroom mirror for her to read whe she's in there. I signed it "Love, Mom & Björk"
She's left it on there for over a year. It must mean something to her.
