Lyric discussion by wisewhiz 

I like this song, and I'd say it's slowly becoming one of my favorites. I love the last line and how it builds up, "Stuck watching our lives blow up." Anyway, as far as what it means, I think it's talking how this guy's so caught up in the moment and what seems right at the time, but in the end, realizes that he needs a wake up call. God had showed him the right way, but he chose to ignore it, thinking he could figure things out his own way, but then realized that his own way doesn't work at all.
