Chasing Victory – Janus (Doctor Jekyll/Stephen Hyde) Lyrics 18 years ago
Doctor Jekyll/Stephen Hyde = analogy or metaphor or whatever of good vs. evil in humans
i think he was trying to portray fighting against himself/sinful nature and that if you just choose, you can be redeemed
or something of that sort

Blindside – All of Us Lyrics 18 years ago
basically i think this song is about How we are running, searching for something to fill that hole in us, and the whole time God is chasing after us. and when we finally found what we are looking for to complete us (which is God), we realize we've been searching after Him the whole time. (the music video helps to portray that)

oh and they may have decided to use the video as a metaphor. blindside is a well developed band with a lot of deep lyrics. i'm not saying what the video is supposed to mean, but it would make sense that they were going for something deeper than a boy chasing a girl

Blindside – Silence Lyrics 18 years ago
They won't see the fire you have lit inside of me.
[Perhaps people who have hardened their hearts or something of the sort

They look up to the stars and wonder where you might be.
(Correction) -they look up.- Without realizing they're standing in the palm of your hand.
[people wonder where God is. but really he's holding the whole universe in his hand and is in control of everything

I can't explain or understand.
I just love you.
[basically faith is hard to explain, to believe in something that you can't see. but he still has faith and loves God]

It's common knowledge that; you've been dead for a while.
[People think that even if Christ was real.. that he's really dead. Or that it’s all fake, Or something of the sort]

It's well known that the cross is only a burden with pains
and trials.
[ perhaps like being a Christian is just a life filled with pain and is pointless

But thinking how come my shoes are so light, how come I can walk for miles?
And still, just love you?
[he can find strength in God. and even when there are tough times, he still comes out loving God (Christian says sings the same type of thing in Eye of the Storm) ]

So I think I'll stay, caught up in silent prayer,
cause I believe in silence. Our hearts speak the same words. So why don't we just walk along the shoreline with our silent song? Cause I believe in silence. Our hearts speak the same words, the same words.
[self explanatory i suppose]

We have to prove that our love is real, over and over again.
[people want those who follow Christ to prove themselves]

But let them think what they want cause I know It'll never end.
[ridicule for being Christ followers will happen to the end of time ]

Cause I know when it began.
[perhaps he’s referring to the fall. even since evil has entered man, anyone who has been follow God has been ridiculed for it]

And my heart still pumps twice as fast whenever you walk by.
Cause I still love you.
[basically whenever he feels God’s presence(and I can talk from my own experience) it’s just so amazing

Brand New – Handcuffs Lyrics 18 years ago
to me it's basically about inner struggle like Alchemyrules said " this song is all about the weakness in man and that there is a homeostasis living between The Devil and God."
kind of reminds me of Thr3e by Ted Dekker

Dead Poetic – Vices Lyrics 18 years ago
she is some girlfriend or maybe even his wife. but i'm pretty sure that when he's talking about God

"While I bite my tongue to keep from breaking the heart that I’ve spent my whole life seeking.
[he spent his whole life seeking God]
The only heart I’ve ever needed."
[the only ones love he needs is God's]

that's how i see it

As Cities Burn – Of Want And Misery: The Nothing That Kills Lyrics 19 years ago
"i'd like to think that this is love
lost in second chances without end
this is romance"

Though this whole song is obviously about a girl
the last three lines remind me totally of Gods love. and no matter how many times we mess up, he will always take us back.

Showbread – Oh! Emetophobia! Lyrics 19 years ago
yes but he write very metaphoric songs,
i look on it as like he singing for jesus to come right up to him and like embrace him or something like that,
like "baby when i wrap my arms around you feel the bones in your back" could be like when he's really close to God he can like really feeel it or something

Blindside – Eye Of The Storm Lyrics 19 years ago
I think I've stayed for the last time, goodbye
[saying a sweet goodbye to sin]
Hope is so much closer to beauty than sorrow
[we're not going to find hope in sorrow so we shoudn't look for it here...or something along those lines]
I think I'll leave and leave self pity to die
[pretty straight forward'
Reflection is always brighter than shadow
real christians who "reflect" Christ are always going to out sine the devil.
{straight forward}


Please come closer
Cause I don't even touch you anymore
[calling out to God to come closer, cuz he can't feel Him anymore]
Please see I'm walking in to the eye of the storm
And I'll still come out loving you even more
[saying how he's gonig into a really hard time in his life but he's still gonig to love God no matter what happens"

Love is in the air tonight
So just breathe
[Jesus' forgivness is here we jsut have to accept it'

You made sure the atmosphere was thick tonight
So this is where it begins and where it ends
With a crack in a dark sky piercing light
[not sure about the first two lines but "With a crack in a dark sky piercing light" is talking about in all this darkness there is still christ' love

[Please come closer
Cause my heart doesn't touch yours anymore
Please see I'm walking into the eye of the storm
And I'll still come out loving you even more]
already explained

Love is in the air tonight so just breathe
Breathe my spirit breathe
Love is in the air tonight so just breathe
Breathe my spirit breathe
[already explained]
leave, leave now and don't look back
leave, leave now and don't you look back
[leave sin and your old life behind and don't look back]
[the rest i already explained
Please come closer
Cause I don't even touch you anymore

Please see I'm walking in to the eye of the storm
And I'll still come out loving you even more

Please come closer
Cause my heart doesn't touch yours anymore

Please see I'm walking in to the eye of the storm
And I'll still come out loving you even more

Blindside – King Of The Closet Lyrics 19 years ago
didn't read all the comments but here it is
first of all "KIng of the closet"
has nothing to do with gay people it's in the terms of being in the darkness(spiritual darkness)

I answer with a restless ok but I'm about to blow when you're gone
I keep this to myself; a restless ok but I fear the dawn
I've never been afraid to hide up in the dark
It's the first morning stream of pure light that makes me rather swim with the sharks
And it'll make me say I'm ok even though it hurts more if I stay
And I'm ok. Yes, I'm ok. If that'll make your questions go away
- this is talknig about christians pushing their faith on him
how he wants nothing to do with christians(this is before he was saved) ("It's the first morning stream of pure light that makes me rather swim with the sharks") and how they made him want nothing to do with God

"This choice I've got to make,
I've got to make alone
A heart of stone
This choice I've got to make
I've got to make it true
A heart broken in two"
here christian talks about how he has to make a chice about accepting Christ and how he has to make the chice himself and not have "christians" push it on him

Showbread – Welcome To Plainfield Tobe Hooper Lyrics 19 years ago
this song might be about thechainsaw massacre
but
"I'll bet Your hands are beautiful, I'm sure Your head is beautiful, But the world is ugly, The world is ugly and it's true, I'll bet Your hands are beautiful, I'm sure Your head is beautiful, But the world is ugly, But the world is ugly, The world is ugly even after you"

is most def talking about how God is perfect but we're still messed up, even after Jesus came

Showbread – Oh! Emetophobia! Lyrics 19 years ago
ok it's not about a girl, it's about jesus


"Yeah, you turn me inside out"
josh is saying how jesus changed him

"You give new meaning to drop dead gorgeous"
saying how Jesus is so beautiful

"Oh yeah, your voice is like music
It’s music to my ears
I’m not dying anymore, I’m alive baby!"
he's not dying anymore because he has Jesus' music in his heart

those are a few of the main points
and josh said something about the throwing up thing had something to do with rejecting sin.

So bored of losing ground to the heresy
