Darken day - Lyric analysis - Group Post

First of all we had to listen to the songs lyrics in detail and find out what the song is actually about. we came to the conclusion that this song gives you a sense of freedom makes you do what you want and no one can tell you what to do. The following examples are lyrics from the song which explain this.

"you can't stop me" - this is implying that you are in control of yourself and no body can stop you from following your dreams

"ill leave you standing in my dust" - this could mean that you have left everyone else behind and done your own thing so they are standing in your 'dust'

"don't let anybody stand in your way" - this is another line that tells you not to listen to anyone saying you can't do something or be something, do
what you want and see where it takes you

"don't let anybody darken your day" - don't let somebody ruin your day and make you feel bad, don't listen to negative people and always stay positive

"don't feel like giving up" - if you are doing something you like, it can be hard at times but don't give up. In the end it will be worth it and always think back to why you started in the first place.

All of these lyrics are very positive thoughts and make you feel like you can do anything you desire. This sparked our idea for the music video as we just felt like going out and enjoying ourselves. This links not only into the lyrics of the song because we are not letting anything get in out way but it also links to the sound because the song is fast paced and we are always on the move.
