And here is Ryan Clarks description as to what the song means: "This song, although seemingly very sad and depressing, is in actuality a love letter to my friends and family. It is essentially something that I would want them all to know if I were to die. I ask my true friends to carry my casket down the aisle, and as they lay me into the ground, not to mourn for my soul, but rather rejoice for my salvation. Death can be viewed as a very negative thing, but for Christians, it is where we find our true hope. Death is never something I would take lightly or toy with, but to address it I think can be very revealing. If you never spoke of the reality of death, you would be ignoring such an important part of life. This song asks my friends and family to “save sorrow for the souls in doubt,” for they know that my soul is safe." Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest as they lie in death. -Isaiah 57:2 |

A few corrections... Here are the lyrics as they are posted on TBR website. And if you see me losing ground Don’t be afraid to lie I know the pain inside my heart can’t break the fear inside of yours And if you see me losing faith In what it means to die Don’t let me leave before I know what lies behind the stained glass doors Save sorrow for the souls in doubt Bleed every care out Chorus: Will you carry me down the aisle that final day With your tears and cold hands shaking from the weight When you lower me down beneath that sky of gray Let the rain fall down and wash away your pain For every word we never spoke We have a tear to cry For every silence like a wall between a better you and I So if you see me losing sight Of all the death in life You’ll find the peace in every time I failed to see the death in mine Let all the fear inside you drown Tear out the blade and lay it down Save sorrow for the souls in doubt Bleed every care out (Chorus) Oh, the blood is rushing out Oh, I’m better off without Oh, the walls are closing in Oh, sing for me again (Chorus) (Rain down, oh rain down, no care for the flood) |
