I halfway agree with SinkFloridaSink. But the final lyrics of the song seem to say something different to me. After he finds his God and prays and what else, the chorus comes back. This implies, to me, that he thought he found what religion was right for him, but then reverted back to his old sinful ways. He partied and lived his old life again. But then the final verse: I need a life I've never had I need so much more good, lord & much less bad So this is his thought pattern AFTER he partied again and lost touch with his found God and religion. I think the most important lyric here is "I need so much more good, lord." This shows he still is leaning on God. Even though he dropped the pursuit of religion, the previous search left him with a belief that he still has. A belief that SOME God presence exists. This is why I think thevan is incorrect. I don't think he's being sarcastic about it. He's battling with the desire to be young and enjoy life as young people do, while still yearning for a higher order. this is all imho. |

ya, so it's about a guy who hates being corrected all the time by his girl... he's whipped. when he says "lord knows i haven't tried" its just reiterating that he's whipped. even know he's the one that has to deal with the bullshit all the time, he still puts the blame on himself. blindness. |
