System of a Down: Lonely Day Meaning
Song Released: 2006
Lonely Day Lyrics
And its mine
The most loneliest day of my life
Such a lonely day
Should be banned
It's a day that I can't stand
The most loneliest day of my life
The most loneliest day of my life
Such a lonely day
Shouldn't...

Daron has said alot of things about alot of songs. And so far this song he has said its about his girlfriend and about the hiatus. SOAD does this on a lot of songs because they want the fans to find there own meanings in the words. Some people inturpret it as about what the band has said or as 9-11, or many different things. Personaly, i thin its about AIDS

I was actually searching on yahoo answers to see if Daron Malakian had any siblings and what i found was that when he was younger there house had caught on fire and he had made it out but his brother didn't and that's what the song was written about which explains a lot.
in the video it showed buildings and/or small structures on fire and some of the lyrics such as "and if you go, i wanna go with you, and if you die, i wanna die with you."
and "its a day that i'm glad i survived"
that's just kind of the info that i'm going on, but then again i could be wrong. -
Daron told rolling stones in an interview the song was about the worst day of his life, the day his brother died in a fire, hense the random fires everywhere. Daron had only his brother and when he died he was Linley and had a void in his heart.

Wut do u think? Lol this song Is cut and dry. It's basically about some1 having a lonely day and they want to kill themself but then the person or ppl don't and there glad they survived.

sometimes we are alone individually.we can realize that we are one naturally and lively in the world.the people beside us are nothing to me/us.we have walk alone , live alone , realize alone, alone alone or alone although people around us share for living.

you guys are all CRAZY!!! this song has nothing to do with genocide, suicide or anything else of that nature... it's a song to make fun of all you sensitive people out their... they're trying to get under your skin and obviously they have succeeded! you people are suckers... SOAD was not at all trying to prove a point in this song other than people are easy to shake. they weren't sad, they weren't lonely. if you know system you know they are very profound individuals. "they most lonliest day of my life" is not a profound sentence.. it is improper and incomplete and they would only write that as a joke
-
I heard its about one of the band members brothers?(not sure which one sryy). their house caught on fire and him and his brother were in the house and one got out n the brother died. n he feels bad he made it out without his brother?? again im sorry I dunno who he is lol. the ending he says its a day that im glad i surviveddd.

It's simply about a lonely day. shez!
-
it's about that feeling we all have in our lives at some point. it's called Melancholic depression
-
I think its a total piss-take on pop music. Not many SOAD songs with this poppy structure, the grammar is purposely bad (in "the most loneliest day of my life") to illustrate the naivety and effortlessness behind most bubblegum pop music written today. "And if you go i wanna go with you, And if you die i wanna die with you. Take your hand and walk away." - Littlebit too easy for SOAD? A satirical piece IMO.

This song is about Serj losing his brother in a fire.
-
I believe this song is about Daron's brother or someone close to him dying in a fire?

Ok, so about 45 seconds in, we get a very important clue. Very important. Did anybody else notice the allusion (a figure of speech that makes a reference to, or representation of, a place, event, literary work, myth, or work of art etc) when the lady walks by the glass double doors? Hellooooo! Pink Floyd: Wish You Were Here album cover!
Two men shaking hands, one is on fire. We all know that Wish You Were Here was written when Roger Water's grandmother died. "I wrote it around the time my grandmother died. She spent her last years at my mother's house, and when I visited, she would look at me with an anguished expression and go, 'Robert!' Robert was her husband, who had been dead for twenty years. It was very tortured and moving." (Roger Waters).
Daron Malakian: Interview Source titled "Anaylysis of Daron" (can be googled if the link fails to post). And I quote, "Malakian displays deep vulnerability when, in detailing the primary pivotal event of his life thus far, the death of his grandmother, he's asked how he dealt with the loss. "A lot of fighting," he says. "I kicked a lot of peoples' fuckin' asses. I realized that I had a lot of aggression in me. I've had to learn to keep it in check. If someone turns around to look at my chick, I want to fucking kill them. If someone fucks with my homeboys, I want to fucking kill them. I've got to keep it in check now."
Did we all catch that, the most pivitol moment was when his grandmother died. This is what the video is trying to express with the fire, its a metaphor for death, as seen on the Pink Floyd album cover mentioned above. Daron was damn right spelling out what this video was about...but to only those who know the language of symbolism ("Signs and symbols rule the world, not words nor laws" Confucius).
To all those saying Daron's brother (or sister) died in a fire, please people, provide a source. I googled the hell out of that, and came across an Armenian teen's blog, who's brother died in a fire, and she just happened to be a Daron Malakian fan. ???. If I am wrong, and he DID say the song was about his brother (which he is an ONLY child, by the way), then by all means, prove it =)
