| AFI – The Leaving Song Pt. 2 Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
thinking about the song i figured out what it means to me. its about being broken in ways that make you think that nothing can save you from yourself and all the emotions youve found and hid inside yourself from everyone. its an explanation of the thoughts that may go through ones head while reflecting on life. Don't waste your touch, you won't feel anything Or were you sent to save me? -trying to keep people at a distance because of thoughts that you already dying or dead but asking yourself if they can really help make you feel alive and whole once again I've thought too much, you won't find anything... Worthy of redeeming -being stuck inside ones own head and emotions so long has made you believe that there isnt anything good left of yourself and its just a waste of time to get help now cause its to late Yo he esta-do agui muchas veces antes y regreso (translation-I have been here many times before and I return) To... break down, and cease all feeling Burn now, what once was breathing Reach out, and you may take my heart away -put with the spanish it means that you've come to this feeling of hopelessness before and justcame back to it once again. came back to just breaking down and numbing yourself from all the emotions and pain/anger/sadness/fear you've been feeling and just basically kill off all emotion though there is still a hope that someone can reach out to you and help ease the pain by taking what you have become inside away Imperfect cry, and scream in ecstasy So what befalls the flawless? -hating and loving what is happening to yourself. questioning what happen to the ones who are perfect. Look what I've built, it shines so beautifully Now watch as it destroys me -you've made a mask of perfection around yourself now. it makes others believe that nothing is wrong and they envy the way it makes them looking. all this time it's killing you inside to not show what you really feel and it hurts lying to everyone and not letting them see you for the imperfection you really are. Y regreso agui otra vez y comienzo (translation-i return here again and begin) To... break down, and cease all feeling Burn now, what once was breathing Reach out, and you may take my heart away -now coming back to this place of instability again and doing it all over again. repeating the cycle of breaking down from the emotions pooling up inside then shutting yourself off again and killing them once more while hoping that someone will free you from it. Break down, and cease all feeling Burn now, what once was breathing Reach out, and you may take my heart away -the repetition just goes to show that all of this is an endless cycle that keeps happening and never seems to stop I left it all behind, and never said goodbye I left it all behind, and never said goodbye I left it all behind, and never said goodbye I left it all to die -completely killing off everything you felt and becoming like an empty shell. leaving all the memories of everything behind and not looking back though by not saying goodbye it means that you aren't over them all yet you just dont want to face them. I saw its birth, I watched it grow I felt it change me I took the life, I ate it slow Now it consumes me -you know that it started and just let the feelings build up until it made you a different person than what you were before. it turned your life into something completely diffeent than what it was, what you wanted it to be. you then completely got rid of all emotions and bit back anything that you might've felt. now by holding it all in and not letting anything come out you let it all take over your life. it haunts you and you can't get rid of it no matter what. its all now part of you, it is you now. I... break down, and cease all feeling Burn now, what once was breathing Reach out, and you may take my heart away Break down, and cease all feeling Burn now, what once was breathing Reach out, and you may take my heart away ... Heart away -trying to be a completely emotionless shell of a person hasnt worked because the feelings come back again and the cycle starts over again. heart away being repeated at the end just shows how much you want to get rid of all the negativity and your hoping more than ever that someone will save you from yourself so the endless cycle of pain and hurt will finally stop and you can try to go back to a better life once again. go back to feeling something good. i love this song...i relate to it in the way i stated above...the pain and hurt and anger never stop coming as long as you let yourself feel this way and dont try to let anyone close enough to take the pain away and no amount of hoping will get someone to help you with what they dont even know exists...its sad but enlightening. this is a beautiful song and i am happy for the sense of hope it brings. thanks to any who took the time to read my interpretation. i know its long but i cant make short explanations. sorry ;) |

I'm not out to find what davey meant by the song im just writing what it seems to mean to me. It seems like its about a relationship where the narrator doesnt love who he is with though they do love him and he wont really give up the relationship. I have been a world apart, stuck in between time. -The world apart means that he doesn't feel the same as the other person. He feels like they are metaphoriically on two different planets. Stuck in between time is like where the relationship keeps happening over and over and its like time is just repeating itself. Head into the ground, I'm found falling through fault lines. -He feels like he will go to hell for lying to the other person and every lie(fault line) he says just makes him fall closer to hell. I feel see through. Can you see through me? -He feels like everyone should be able to tell he doesnt feel the love that the other person feels for him. He is asking the person if they can tell he doesnt love them. Could I change one thing? Could I change your mind? -They broke up and are getting back together and he is asking if he can change their mind about being with him. Shall we burn it just like the last time? -Asking should they break up again like they always do. I can't change a thing, can't explain why I never felt it, not even the first time. -He's saying that he can't explain why he cant just say he never loved her or why he didn't feel anything for her since the beginning. Raise a glass and toast the flame just like the old days. -He's saying lets move on and just be happy for the memories. Lets just be happy about what we had like how we were happy about it in the beginning. Swallow but be careful, don't drown the new ways you could say, "Would you change this time?" -The swallow and drown parts make me think of holding back tears and sadness. He's saying its okay to be sad but don't make it be like the end of your life and ask me to love you when i can't. don't ask me to make this work by making me feel guilty. I'll begin to change my mind when you can explain why I feel see through. -He's telling her that he can love her when she tells him why he doesn't and why he lies about it. Can you...feel me? -Asking if she really believes that he loves her. Shall we? Nothing's different... -He is now askin her to take him back again though it will be the same as always. Nothing will change. I still won't love you but i just want to be with you. The song is like the narrator wants to be with the girl cause he cares about her but he doesnt actually love her which make him not want to be with her cause he will just hurt her. He is torn between wanting to make her happy though it hurts him to lie to her and wanting to end it so she can maybe find something real though she loves him and breaking up for real would hurt her. He just wants her to see he doesn't love her and wants her to just end it so maybe she wont really be hurt so much. |

this song is absolutely beautiful and after having it on repeat for the past few hours i finally figured out what i think it means. i believe its about telling someone not to try to figure out who you truely are because they wouldnt be able to handle it.i'm gonna try breaking it down a few lines at a time What could you see? What could you find? -Asking the person what they think they will find If we meet please avert your eyes. -Telling the person that if they do find something not to take notice and remember it What I'd never show, what you'll never find is explosive so hide your eyes. -telling the person that they won't be shown what they are trying to find and that they won't be able to find it themselves and that they should just stop searching cause they would'nt be able to handle it. What should mean nothing to you has left a poison running straight from your lips and into (lead to) the poison I'm becoming. -Telling them they shouldnt even care and they are just making things worse off by trying to pry Walk right through me, I'm not really there. -Saying that the person should just go because what they are trying to find is nothing Once it meant something to me. -At one point it was important but now its not I find it rather stunning. I draped it cold and clarity. It's true, I find the look becoming. -Its amazing that the person is still trying though they were clearly told to just stay away and its actually kind of nice to see that someone cares so much to find out what makes one tick so badly that they'd keep on looking even after being told not to so many times It's a day gone away. Turn away from the day, it's explosive. -basically saying that the person is wasting their days trying to find out something that they can't even begin to understand and they should just forget about it and move on with their life. thats how i think of the song. another way i thought of it was where instead of someone trying to hide something they were just trying tell someone else that they dont posess what that person thinks they do and they are trying desperately to tell that person that they wont find what doesnt exist and that if they keep looking they'll just get hurt when in the end they finally figure out that they were being told the truth the whole time so they should just move on. hopefully that wasnt confusing. in the end its a really touching song by really talented people. |

| this song holds a lot of meaning to me....it reminds me of a relationship i was in a few yaers ago where i was getting beat by my bf and he cheated on me and i knew that he did but i kept believing him every time he said that everything was good and i couldn't let go of the relationship till all the fighting got me to a point where i just wanted to kill myself.everyone believed that he was such a good person and that i was lying about everything and i lost many friends and ended up staying away from people just so i wouldnt have to deal with their angry glares and hateful words. thankfully a good friend of mine realized that i wasnt lying and that i was getting hurt in the worst ways and helped me get out before it was to late. i love DC. i can relate so many of their songs to things in my life and i am thankful that they have made songs that i can relate to and listen to to help me get through life. :D this is my 2nd fav song next to 'again i go unnoticed' i love it. thanks DC for all the great music! \(^_^)/ | |

i did get a jesus vibe from it after i listened to the whole cd but the meaning i get from it isnt really about jesus.i think all the theories are correct cause there is no right or wrong answer if your asking an opinion and i think its great to try to think about things a lil differently than you might have first thought. i think this song is about someone who has had alot happen to them in the past and the would like to tell the person they trust (a best friend or lover???) but that person is hurting them instead even though they have been there to listen to said person...... yes i kno my interpretation is a little out there but its just what i got from it......just my way of making it relate to my life....id like to hear some feedback maybe |
