R.E.M. - Until The Day Is Done [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
The battle's been lost, the war is not won
An addled republic, a bitter refund
The business first flat earthers licking their wounds
The verdict is dire, the country's in ruins

[Chorus]
Providence blinked, facing the sun
Where are we left to carry on
Until the day is done
Until the day is done

[Verse 2]
As we've written our stories to entertain
These notions of glory and bull market gain
The teleprompter flutters, the power surge brings
An easy speed message falls into routine

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
A voice whispers son
The blessed vision comes
What have i done[x2]
So hold tight your babies and your guns
Forgive us our trespasses, father and son

[Outro]
Providence blinked, facing the sun
Where are we left to carry on
Until the day is done[x6]
