... And the best part is that these lyrics work both ways. I think it means both. This one has a similar meaning to Hymn For The Missing... Maybe I should listen to Red's lyrics more! |

| Red – Hymn For The Missing Lyrics | 13 years ago |

Couldn't agree with you more! It's about a relationship whether it be between people or people and God or maybe even both. Say the song is about a boy and a girl. It could be something else, but i feel the verse 2 is more powerful if it's about love. The boy is a solid christian but the girl isn't sure of her faith - "the night was growing dark" (picked it this way because I know a story where it is so) All seems to be good, but then as her faith begins to crumble and she slips back to her "old self", the relationship loosens, too. "Thought you were beside me But I reached and you were gone" However, the girl isn't fully lost. The last lines in verse 1 imply that she longs back to the relationship with the boy and simultaneously with God. "I hear you crying softly for the way it was before" The chorus is basically the cry of the boy (and God, too!) to the girl who went missing. He is desperately missing her and worried that is she lost forever. Verse 2 is powerful, as I said. "You took it with you when you left These scars are just a trace Now it wonders lost and wounded This heart that I misplaced" As the girl left the boy (because she left God), she took his heart with her and all the boy has left is the scars. His broken heart is wondering somewhere between his feelings for her, his love for God and the thought of losing her. |

Yeah and that was 10 years ago :D well, could still be it but this song could tell about any kind of addiction or bad habit. Maybe 'them' is his habit of catching himself, looking at his flaws? But he realizes that he can't make himself be a better person. He's coming down alone as he's destroying himself? But then he wins the wrong thoughts, One breath at a time I'll be just fine, 'cause I'll be right on the inside. just something that came up to my mind :) |

| Underoath – Who Will Guard the Guardians? Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| Just sayin', christianity and the church are two totally different things. If someone questions the church it may be because deeper devotion to christianity. Can't say more as I don't see it the same way as you. | |

| p.s. musical and lyrical perfection, I doubt anyone (even ABR) can ever compose a song better than this. | |
| August Burns Red – The Truth of a Liar Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| The title says it all - could be concerning fake religion, addiction or just building up your fortune with unclean methods - the song tells that truth built on lies won't hold up for long. | |

| +1, nice comment but I'd like to add that it doesn't need to be sin. It could social, financial, emotional or educational problems etc. Pretty much anything. | |

Foreword: Long comment, but please take your time, it was very powerful for me. I'm speechless. This song feels like it's written about my present situation. Verse 1 tells about a normal person, whose life seems to be on track. All's well. But suddenly he figures out that he has messed up badly in every aspect of life. Now his path feels blood-stained, it's something he's never been into before (I don't belong here, I never saw this on the path). He didn't see it coming. He didn't see the backlash when the tide began to rise. Chorus tells about a dark, infernal place. For me, it's something concerning secrets and regrets and stuff I feel I've failed in. Things I'd want to change. Maybe getting disappointed by other people. Also I had my first panic attack ever today (yes, I'm male, 18yrs). For someone else that infernal place could be anything, but something he somehow can't get over with (I won't stop feeding the pain etc). Verse 2 is much like verse 1, he seems lost in his new situation (stuck between the guilty and the insincere), drowning in the tide. He feels so much guilt (I should have know this), he should've fixed it on the backlash (but he didn't see it). He's desperate to do anything to get out (I'd die to kill this noise in my head). Part 3 made me cry. It escalates all my feelings. If this is all the love my spirit can give - Why cant I do any better, maybe show some love and forgiveness? Maybe get rid of the hatred, guilt, bitterness and self-pity. I HAVE failed. We all have. It just might take a long way to find out how lost you've been. Even I being a christian from my birth realized I've gone too far on my own. Now I bow down to God and give up everything. I can't do it on my own. If this is all the love my spirit can give... JUST TAKE IT BACK TONIGHT, THERE IS NOT A REASON MORE TO LIVE ... Can't do it on my own. God must take my spirit and guide it. And he will. If I ask for it. P.S. I told this from my aspect. Everyone has their own problems (everyone has some), the meaning of this song may be different for you. But this did touch me. A lot. |
