Tomorrow Will Be Kinder by The Secret Sisters
Posted by Crystal • 24 Comments »
Categories: Soundtrack / Score

Last month, The Secret Sisters revealed that they had recorded a song for ‘The Hunger Games’ soundtrack, which we now know will be released on March 20. Thanks to Hypable for posting about this video of their new song, Tomorrow Will Be Kinder. Here are the lyrics, which are fittingly haunting for Katniss.

Black clouds are behind me
I now can see ahead
Often I wonder why I try
Hoping for an end

Sorrow weighs my shoulders down
And trouble haunts my mind
But I know the present will not last
And tomorrow will be kinder

Tomorrow will be kinder
It’s true, I’ve seen it before
A brighter day is coming my way
Yes, tomorrow will be kinder

Today I’ve cried a many tear
And pain is in my heart
Around me lies a somber scene
I don’t know where to start

But I feel warmth on my skin
The stars have aligned
The wind has blown but now I know
That tomorrow will be kinder

Tomorrow will be kinder
I know I’ve seen it before
A brighter day is coming my way
Yes, tomorrow will be kinder

A brighter day is coming my way
Yes, tomorrow will be kinder

The southern duo ‘The Secret Sisters,’ revealed to NY Mag that they’ll be on ‘The Hunger Games’ soundtrack:

“We were in Australia when the tornadoes came through Alabama (in April 2011). It was so tough for us to be away from home when all that was going on. There, Lydia sat down and wrote a song stemming from that sadness, “Tomorrow Will Be Kinder.” Even though it came from a really dark circumstance, it is about looking forward to better days. Just recently, we found out that song is going to be on “The Hunger Games” soundtrack. We recorded that song with T Bone in New York.

This is awesome news! Check out a song by Secret Sisters below:

Taylor Swift’s father confirmed today on his Facebook that Taylor is shooting a music video for her new song ‘Safe and Sound’.

Just back from Safe and Sound Video Shoot. I think it is by far the best I have ever seen. The scenery and shots are amazing as is Taylor walking barefoot across fields with rocks in cold weather. What a trooper. But it works! Stay tuned. I cannot wait for this one.

From Taylor’s father’s comments, it sounds like this music video is going to be amazing!

“Another mockingjay, a young one by the look of it, lands on a branch before me and bursts out Rue's melody.
My song, the hovercraft, were too unfamiliar for this novice to pick up, but it has mastered her handful of notes. The ones that means she's safe.”
