Breaking Benjamin – Crawl Lyrics 14 years ago
This man wants to get away from someone he is in love with. He fell in love, only to realize too late that the one he loves is cruel to him. He feels stuck in the relationship. While he loves the person, he also resents them for being so terrible, and is trying to play the same games as them in an effort to tear them down. He eventually realizes that he is becoming the same person he is trying to escape. By the end of the song, they are both fighting for figurative control. The person the song is coming from is losing, but still has to escape.

Breaking Benjamin – Hopeless Lyrics 14 years ago
A lot of this album seems to be about losing someone. If that's true, then I think this song might be about the person's feelings after the loss. Maybe a relative or a close friend or a lover died, and now they feel hopeless. "I can't wake up, I cannot hold on, I will not let go. It's hopeless now." They feel sorrowful about whatever happened, and want to give up so they won't have to face the sadness anymore, but they also don't want to just give in. "Filthy, Worthless, Guilty." They feel like that because they don't know what they really want, or what would be best for them to do to move on, or if they should move on at all.
