After the upheaval of a relationship breakdown there is a period of calm. The Singer, desperate for peace, is proposing maintaining that calm by carrying out a suicide pact. Tomorrow becomes the last tomorrow, thereby stopping any more painful tomorrows.
This describes the collapse of a relationship. How a partner becomes an unfamiliar person who acts differently and who's outlook changes. The pain of the cessation of any closeness and denial of any special connection.
A cynical look at the members of Western Society who purport to have our interests at heart, but who have their own agendas. There is a sneer in the delivery at politicians, lawyers, bankers et al who deceive us with fears of instability and play on our insecurities.
This is a song of hope. The possibility that if the dream is there and you don't give up, it can come true. The main character is a woman author who works hard, through adversity, to achieve the ultimate in her field.
An 'Awayday' ticket used to be a cheap way of travelling on British Rail and was a way of getting away from home, the return part of the ticket not being used. My character in this song has left home to prove a point (perhaps, infused with the feel of the old stories of the man who leaves to make his fame and fortune). Unfortunately, my character doesn't reach his required level of achievement and decides to find another way out. This character is a composite of a number of people I've known in the past and the outcome, a reflection of what might have happened.
