Daybreaker Anthem [Deep Cut] / English Fan Lyrics / Splatoon 3
Lyrics are also in the description!
Ok I'm super sorry for the long description, i have a LOT to say today lmao
First of all, thank you so much to @WhyWhyZedSplt for helping me refine these lyrics! If you like the videos I make, I GUARANTEE you’ll like Zed’s channel too. Check out his fan lyrics and subscribe to support an amazing splatuber!
Second, the Portuguese lyrics were lifted from Um Passeio no Mundo Livre. It translates to “A step forward and you’re not in the same place anymore.” The way I used it here is pretty divorced from the original context, but it's a really cool line and I wanted an excuse to include it. I dont speak Portuguese, im so sorry 😭😭
Lastly, thank you guys SO MUCH for 2000 subscribers!!! It seems like a livestream and/or Splatoon tierlist was the most popular choice for a 2k special, so I’m going to start planning for that. Seriously thank you so so so much, it means the world to me! 💙🤍💛
* * *
Washing out all the chalk marks
As the rain patters onto the street beneath
Wish our art could’ve stayed there, lasted forever
Guess I just have to make another
Not a trace of my hue on the concrete
Need a little permanent ink in my artwork
What’s the point of creating things
If they never last long?
Down the gutter goes my heart and soul
This was a rare night
The blue moon glowed for me
A strange, elusive sort of sight
But after blue moons, the day returns and
Swallows the precious light
(Um passo… à frente e você…)
The stars will shift and the sun will rise
(…não está mais… no mesmo lugar)
Why should I even try?
On my knees on the beach
Making castles of sand
Till the waves start cascading upon them
Every grain washed away
Ruin left in the wake
Why do I create my castles here?
Hands reaching for the ash
Grasping for embers before they’re gone
Winds extinguish every lantern wick
Every good thing comes to an end
Begging the sun to wait
Don’t bring the dawn, the evening is young
Please don’t make us bid the moon farewell
I’m not ready for it to wane
What is the point of hello
When so suddenly we’ll bid goodbye?
Our songs will fade like we do
Even rainbows don’t last forever
So why do I embrace the rainbow?
Come see the coloured bands bending above
Don’t you understand?
Even when those colours turn to grey
You still wear their brilliant stains
Brandish your ink and pen
Scribble upon our still-pulsing hearts
Fill our senses with the art you make
That’s the point
That’s why we create
Let the metals rust
Let the sculptures turn to dust
Build something brand new
Let the branches rot
Clear the woodland floor for saplings to bloom
Blot out every star
And rinse the chalk off of the ground
Let these castles fall
And tell the sun to wake the dawn

It's not sad for me, it just reminds me that the moment will not last forever, reminds me that everyone goes on... But even if rainbows don't last forever, they will last in my heart til the end of time.
I'm in tears watching this. It's so emotional. It reminds me that Splatoon and everything else won't lasts forever but still gives me that kind of hope that new things will come
SALLY WHAT I DIDN’T KNOW YOU KNEW PORTUGUESE?!?! These lyrics are so well thought out and beautiful, so fitting for this tranquil anthem, GREAT WORK!!!! You too Zed!!! Don’t think for a second I’m not gonna praise you too!!!

4:22 until the end is my favorite part hands down. The subtle and not subtle meaning and then the connecting the three “stories” together at the end gives a really great conclusive feeling to the lyrics. Super good video these lyrics will stick now and I won’t be able to sing it any other way LMAO

Dang, this almost got me tearing up. I know it's just fan lyrics but they were still amazing and portrayed a great message. I'm gonna miss splatfests once we get the final one 😢. Great job though!
These lyrics kind of reminds me of death because while death is an unfortunate part of life and nothing lasts forever, it also reminds me that everything is going to be alright in the end.
I think this left me in tears As an aspiring creative, i often forget what i do isn’t restricted to being perfect but fun as well. Its not for legacy, its for the moment. And oft that moment will feel like it lasts longer than what physically remains.
I keep imagining this as an animation with Deep Cut bringing everyone back together after the DISASTER that was the anniversary fest. Your lyrics really bring images to life!

When it comes to making lyrics for splatoon songs, between you and Catlin Koi, I gotta say I prefer you a lot more. While Catlin’s lyrics may be a little more vocally accurate, your lyrics (unlike hers most of the time) actually make sense with the song title and I really appreciate you for that

Thank you very much, I appreciate that! 🙏🙏 Yeah I definitely don’t match the vocals NEARLY as well as Caitlin does, but I like trying to conceptualize what the song would be about if it were actually in English. It’s a fun thought experiment and it helps me develop as a songwriter! :>

listining to these lyrics when splatoon 1s online will be gone in less than a month is making me feel Emotions nothing will last forever, so we should embrace and cherish the things we love while we still can i love this series so much. edit: writing this right after the servers shut down and i am crying harder than i thought i would. this series means so much to me and ill miss splat1 so much. i will play and love and cherish splat3 and any future games. i will cherish them so hard
"the stars will shift and the sun will Rise" the power of this line is Amazing
The lyrics are so good! This is my first time hearing the song fully, and I have a feeling it's going to be stuck in my head lol
I can't tell if this is an actual new song for Splatoon 3 that got announced on twitter or if it's a really well made fan song, but either way, I was literally in tears this morning 😭 I want this to be one of the DLC ending songs so badly, presuming that we get more DLC past side order, because this song is beautiful and just holds so much meaning

Deep Cut, making a slow song that's tear-jerking, and Sally Strings/WhyWhyZed making a lyric video for it?!?!?! This is shaping up to be quite the Septmber for me, and i'm sure for many others here too! I love the idea you two had of making this song about making something new out of what once was; such a powerful message!! I can't beleive that you're already at 2k+ subs! I know i've said this already, but getting to experience the growth your channel has made since it's early days has been nothing short of an absolute privilege! Here's to the new lyrics you'll create, and to the new memories made along the way!

You’re so incredible at lyric interpretation and writing….im blown away at the poetic nature of your lyrics every time :(
Y'know, the dumbest question someone can ask is "Why do you create?" Does there need to be a reason? If creating is what makes me happy, and seeing other people's creations make my heart hurt in the good way, do I have to have a reason? Isn't that enough? And yet, people still ask that question. "Why do you create?" And really, all I can say is this: I am who I am, and you are who you are. We do how we choose, and that's what's beautiful about being human. These lyrics are truly beautiful, and have so much meaning to me. Thank you.

Oh, WOW. This set of lyrics is absolutely incredible and elevates an already great song to brilliant emotional heights. Every line in this hits so incredibly hard. The scenarios for each member of Deep Cut grappling with loss and impermanence as an artist, where you've created beautiful images that quickly become heartwrenching, are so engaging. "Down the gutter goes my heart and soul" AGH the imagery with the chalk is so clear, and the sense of futility moving into Shiver's section, using the imagery of the simple and unstoppable passage of time, is so good. Then the section with the Portuguese line for the choir is so cool! I adore Big Man's section here (I was overjoyed when I heard this bit in game!) and I love the sandcastle imagery here, which also feels like a very neat parallel to that one Alterna track. I really like the lines "On my knees on the beach" and "Ruin left in the wake". The entire next section is all beautifully written, and I especially like the honest feeling of "I'm not ready for it to wane". Also, "Our songs will fade like we do" immediately before "Even rainbows don't last forever" with the Anarchy Rainbow motif? OUCH. And then the emotional shift towards the end matching up with the image of dawn breaking over the city is perfect - the video editing all throughout this video is absolutely brilliant and a treat to watch, and this particular moment is subtle but so good. Also the line "Scribble upon our still-pulsing hearts" is so raw and visceral and evocative and perfect, moving into the end section of embracing change and endings leading to new beginnings. And to top it all off, you bring back the chalk, night sky, and sandcastles from earlier in the song! So so so good and a really satisfying ending. This was a perfect emotional rollercoaster - Deep Cut finally got their lower-tempo emotional number, and my goodness have you made such a brilliant piece of art with it. One of the best things about your Splatoon lyrics in my opinion is how you create cohesive and emotionally impactful lyrics, and this video is a perfect example of this. This has become a massive ramble again, but thank you so much for creating these lyrics and sharing your art with us all!
I missed this immaculate song, I am so sorry. Keep up the excellent work!
Honestly with the upcoming grandfest...i always come back to this song. It makes me tear up knowing things will be over yet I'm happy that events happened..the memories we all made during splat 3 run. This song speaks volumes to me in alot of ways

Now we need someone to make this into an english cover
Aauuugghhh this gives me so many emotionss,,, like listen it's already very human of them to have this desire to express themselves and be their freshest selves. The fact that this vide gives this song the question of "Why do we create even though we know it'll fade in the end?" And have the end of the song be that to create is to like share our colours, share our experiences. It's so painfully human! It's so human to want to create, to build sand castles, to draw with chalk on the sidewalk, so sing songs that resonate with others. And this song really emphasizes that the inkfish society inherited this human trait. At the end of the day, humanity lives on through these aquatic beings. And as such, these beings will continue to create I'm sorry this went on a tangent but I'm inconsolable at the aspect of splatoon where the inkfish society inherit humanity's desires and how that reflects in their own society fhdjg
