Dagr
In Norse mythology, Dagr (Old Norse "day") is day personified. This personification appears in the Poetic Edda, compiled in the 13th century from earlier traditional sources, and the Prose Edda, written in the 13th century by Snorri Sturluson. In both sources, Dagr is stated to be the son of the god Dellingr and is associated with the bright-maned horse Skinfaxi, who "draw[s] day to mankind". Depending on manuscript variation, the Prose Edda adds that Dagr is either Dellingr's son by Nótt, the personified night, or Jörð, the personified Earth. Otherwise, Dagr appears as a common noun simply meaning "day" throughout Old Norse works. Connections have been proposed between Dagr and other similarly named figures in Germanic mythology.

A Fine Line Between The Middle
by: DiggerAnd when I think of you
I hope we make it through
And when I think I'm strong
You let me know I'm wrong
Everything we ever did
It somehow complicated it
And somehow now we've lost our grip
You've always had me right where you want me
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
And when I think of me
And how it used to be
I was so different then
I don't know where to begin
Everything we ever did
And somehow now we've lost our grip
You've always had me right where you want me
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
(You, always. You, always)
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
You, you got me hoping this gets better
You, you got me wrapped around your finger
