HIVE OPEN MIC 126 / Bad Day Cover

This week, I chose Daniel Powter's song "Bad Day," which I think is fitting for this week's theme of "Trusting the Process." The official music video for this song was a lovely story of two people going about their daily lives and being reprimanded by their boss despite their efforts. One day, both carried their creativity onto an advertisement wall in a subway by responding to each other by drawing. I think most of us know and have watched its music video so yeah I won't go into further details. If you haven't then this is a sign that you should.
Well If you want to, that is. The video and the song brings smile to my face especially after a terrible day.

In addition, this song somehow reminds me too that even if you have a terrible day every now and then, things will get better. Cliche as it may be but my faith in myself and my complete trust In God and His plans is what always gets me through allowing me to breathe, relax, and Trust the Process.

Lyrics

Where is the moment we needed the most?
You kick up the leaves, and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue sky's faded to gray
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carrying on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces every time
And I don't need no carrying on

'Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me, "don't lie"
You work at a smile, and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down, and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carrying on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me, "don't lie"
You work at a smile, and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing, it turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well, oh, that strong
And I'm not wrong (yeah, yeah, yeah)

So where is the passion when you need it the most?
Oh, you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

'Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You see what you like
And how does it feel one more time?
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
