"Everyday Glory" is actually the name of a song by Rush, on of my favorite bands. I remember borrowing a Rush cd "Counterparts" from my older brother when I was about 15, and I LOVED it right away, -still do. Ever since I've had a weak spot in my heart for prog pop, rock and metal.
The song "Everyday Glory" is really a little bit sad, but so many good memories have been made with this song as the soundtrack, so it only makes me happy whenever listening to it.

Everyday glory
In the house where nobody laughs
And nobody sleeps
In the house where love lies dying
And the shadows creep
A little girl hides shaking
With her hands on her ears
Pushing back the tears
'Til the pain disappears
Mama says some ugly words
Daddy pounds the wall
They can fight about their little girl later
Right now they don't care at all
No matter what they say...
No matter what they say...
No matter what they say...
No matter what they say...
Everyday people
Everyday shame
Everyday promise shot down in flames
Everyday sunrise
Another everyday story
Rise from the ashes and blaze
In everyday glory
In the city where nobody smiles
And nobody dreams
In the city where desperation
Drives the bored to extremes
Just one spark of decency
Against a starless night
One glow of hope and dignity
A child can follow the light
No matter what they say...
No matter what they say...
No matter what they say...
No matter what they say...
Everyday people
Everyday shame
Everyday promise shot down in flames
Everyday sunrise
Another everyday story
Rise from the ashes and blaze
In everyday glory
If the future's looking dark
We're the ones who have to shine
If there's no one in control
We're the ones who draw the line
Though we live in trying times
We're the ones who have to try
Though we know that time has wings
We're the ones who have to fly...
