Awesome song.. I just uploaded it on Playlist.com for anyone who wants to check it out =). Really catchy, fast paced song. I would say it's meaning is pretty simple. He blames his ex for whatever she did that ruined their relationship. |

| Senses Fail – The Priest And The Matador Lyrics | 14 years ago |
| Good song, great band. Obviously about him denying religion as he found it to be a lie. Dunno what William Tell has to do with it.. He was an expert x-bow marksman.. I guess it just flows with the song. But "My body lies Kissing the ground Like a cross turned upside down.". Just him showing his disbelief towards religion by his body resembling an upside down cross. The rest of the song just seems to flow with disapproval regarding religion. | |
| Rise Against – Audience Of One Lyrics | 15 years ago |

Just spitballin this. But my guess is that this song is about Fear, and growing up.. I think the Intro is just about realizing its time to grow up "We cruise along at half speed but then we shifted gears" (Transition to adulthood). "Identities assume us As nine and five add up" I think this also has to do with growing up (Age based meaning fourteen years old when he was nine not long ago.. and five not long before that) and his identity is becoming more clear to him. "Synchronizing Watches to the seconds that we lost" I think just means he feels growing up hit him really quick and he feels like he lost a lot of time in childhood.. "I looked up and saw you, I know that you saw me, We froze but for a moment, In empathy" Empathy meaning they can understand each others state of mind, looking at each other frozen as they realize how fast they are growing up. "I brought down the sky for you but all you did was shrug You gave my emptiness a name" I think this is just about trying to impress those who we look up to as teenagers or children. We can do something incredible but they have seen so much more so to them its not as impressive, hence they shrug it off. "We're all ok, until the day we're not The surface shines, while the inside rots We raced the sunset and we almost won We slammed the brakes, but the wheels went on" This is about as true as it gets. The first part is self explanitory. We're okay until something goes wrong.. The surface shines, while the inside rots meaning on the outside we act okay but on the inside we are terrified of growing up during which time we are terrified that something will go wrong. We raced the sunset and we almost won meaning that life is going by to quick and the sunset happens before we can accomplish our goal(s). We slammed the brakes, but the wheels went on is an amazing metaphor simply meaning there really isn't breaks in life like there is in a car.. You can try to put growing up on hold but growing up is something that you can't stop or even slow down. "But you ran away Now all my friends are gone Maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved Runaway But what are we running from? A show of hands from those in this audience of one Where have they gone?" Chorus is about his fear of moving on. Runaway but what are we running from? Meaning hes trying to run away from growing up but you can't.. So really.. What is he running from? Maybe we've outgrown all the things that we once loved meaning he is facing that he is growing up but the sentence starts with a genuine maybe showing that he is unsure. I believe the Audience of One is just a metaphor meaning that people really aren't as alone when it comes to growing up as they think they are. Perhaps Audience of One just refers to people in general feeling alone but we all have to go through several of the same experiences to reach maturity. |
