Well, yes, but that's not what I meant; maybe the last two verses are a bit too vague. Note, however, that it says my day, not 'the day', and this is not random.

I'm not sure how much more I can or should say without giving away too much... but shot, even if it's not a metaphor, can still have more than one meaning.
