I made an account solely for the purpose of ranting on just how awesome this song is... I think it's about a girl who's recently betrayed him in a relationship. The whole first verse is basically him exposing the girl to what she really is. Often times insecure girls with problems will try to act as victims and play off as if they need help but really they are just desperate for attention. Basically he's saying you always cry about getting betrayed but won't think twice about screwing people over. Then I think in the next verse he's really exaggerating time trying to show he spend all of his time with this person and was truly dedicated to them. The 8,064 hours of conspiracies would be him playing in his mind what she was doing when she wasn't with him. Whenever you have someone lie to you, even once, you'll often find yourself creating scenarios in your head of what's really happening. All he wanted was for the girl or person to be honest. The next verse is aweseomeeeee, he's basically saying if he wasn't a Christian he would have been the one destroying her instead her him and that even though she's done this to him he still forgives her. Then he goes on to say he's no longer accepting the fact he's been a victim, he's moving forward and he's going to become all he can be. The only thing I haven't quite figured out is the meaning of " Leveler, make level the road for the righteous". The last verse is self explanatory, he's basically saying he forgives her for everything she's done and he hopes one day God will show her true love. The reason I am so into this song is because basically the entire song just recently happened to me. I'm not sure if it's about a girl but the "queen of hearts" is a dead give away in my opinion. Basically, forgive those who wrong you and you can never go wrong. That doesn't mean take the person back, it just means forgive them and let the anger go. Vengeance is never truly satisfying... Don't ever let someone else break your character and who you are as a person and don't ever stoop to their level... August Burns Red have some of the most influential and meaningful lyrics in my opinion. This band is REAL, very down to earth, and they display what a Christ follower should think like. Thank you for making this song, you guys rock!!!! |
