Breaking Benjamin – Dance With The Devil Lyrics 13 years ago
My interpretation is it's about pain or sickness. Or more, dealing with it. Pain is the "devil" you are fighting.

"Here I stand
Helpless and left for dead"

Left for dead is a feeling you feel when you are sick and in pain..

"Close your eyes
So many days go by
Easy to find what's wrong
Harder to file what's right"

Hours feel like like days, and days feel like weeks. It's harder to focus on the good.

"I believe in you, I can show you that
I can see right through all your empty lies
I won't stay long, in this world so wrong"

I can see a time when I'm not in pain. But it seems distant/

"Say goodbye
As we dance with the devil tonight
Don't you dare look at him in the eye
As we dance with the devil tonight"

You are fighting, holding on.


"Trembling, crawling across my skin
Feeling your cold, dead eyes
Stealing the life of mine"

You sometimes shake. You sometimes feel cold. You feel like crap.


"Hold on
Hold on"

Just hold on. It'll be okay.

Skillet – Falling Inside the Black Lyrics 13 years ago
Just because it's a Christian band, doesn't mean it's definitely about Christianity. Look at those "Those Nights" it really doesn't have to do anything with Christianity.

Skillet – Awake And Alive Lyrics 13 years ago
I take the non-Christian view.
So, I believe this is about the people who fuel you to live, the people who fuel you to wake up. They help you through tough times, and wake you up.

And my strength is fading fast
You breathe into me at last

I'm awake, I'm alive
Now I know what I believe inside

They support you through your dreams, whatever they are. It's as simple as that.

I'm at war with the world

This line shows that there are people who put you down, and hurt you.

Anyways, that's my interpretation.
