DAY6 "Maybe Tomorrow" - A Song that Gave me Hope
On May 7, 2025, DAY6 returned with their new digital single “Maybe Tomorrow”, and as expected, it hit me right in the heart. The moment I saw the teaser, I already braced myself. I knew this song was going to be emotional. And guess what? I cried so much during my first listen.
The track is a beautiful mix of lively drum beats, refreshing melodies, and heartfelt vocals - everything we love about DAY6. Young K wrote the lyrics by himself and you can really feel that raw, honest DAY6 emotion all throughout. Sungjin, Young K, Wonpil, Dowoon, and producer Hong Jisang also came together to compose the song, making it a full team effort.
Maybe Tomorrow Music Video
The music video features all four members acting out the emotions of the song. It begins with Dowoon waking up in a daze, Sungjin quietly watching the sunset, and Young K sitting alone in a dark room, drawn toward something unseen. Then comes a dreamlike world, each member floating through warm, peaceful scenes. Wonpil wakes in a bed surrounded by soft clouds, greeted by sunlight pouring through a small opening above. Just like that, the video ends with a quiet but powerful message: there’s always hope for a better tomorrow.
How I Relate to the Lyrics of Maybe Tomorrow
No matter what I do, nothing ever changes
This first line of Maybe Tomorrow hit me hard. Right from the start, the song captures that deep, lingering frustration, working so hard to change your life, only to feel like you’re still stuck in the same place. It perfectly sets the tone and addresses the core emotion: we’re not okay, and there’s a reason behind it.
Where's the path I'm supposed to take in my blurry world?
This line speaks directly to my current season in life. As someone often called the “Jack of All Trades, Master of None,” I constantly feel lost, unsure of which direction to take. Everything feels unclear, and fear keeps creeping in. It’s hard to move forward when you don’t even know where the path is.
When tomorrow comes, it might be better than today
This is the line I think we all hold on to. That hope - that maybe, just maybe, tomorrow will be better. The moment I heard it, I couldn’t stop the tears. Even when I say I want to give up, there’s still a small voice inside me wishing, believing, that things might improve. It’s that tiny spark of hope that keeps us going.
Full English Lyrics
No matter what I do, nothing ever changesStill, I try this and thatBut the pain surrounding me doesn't seem like it's going awayIt feels like this moment will last foreverCome on time, flow away, look how I am right nowTears keep welling up, so I lift my head to hold them backWhere's the path I'm supposed to take in my blurry world?I don't know, noWhen tomorrow comes, it might be better than todayThis burning wound might hurt a little lessI wait for the day to get my smile backMaybe tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrowWhen tomorrow comes, it might be warmer than todayThis skin-piercing coldness might die down a littleI wait for the spring to embrace my heartMaybe tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrowI want to send it over, even if forciblyBecause it feels like the next might be okayEven if I can't see it getting betterI repeat the days, imagining what lies beyondWhen tomorrow comes, it might be better than todayThis burning wound might hurt a little lessI wait for the day to get my smile backMaybe tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrowAnd so on, tomorrows will pile upAnd then one dayThe day I waited for will come to meWhen tomorrow comes, it might be warmer than todayThis skin-piercing coldness might die down a littleI wait for the spring to embrace my heartMaybe tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow
