| Flyleaf – Freedom Lyrics | 12 years ago |

This song means so much to me that I created an account just to provide an interpretation. I am almost a 100% certain about the meaning, though I admit that it's only because I feel such a strong connection with the words (and not because, say...the band members sat me down to explain them). This song is in the voice of Jesus Christ. Keep in mind that He is also referred to as "The Word [of God]" so that should put some of the lyrics and their double entendres in even more perspective. This is my "translation" of the song: "Freedom, these words I speak are for your freedom. Freedom, this death on the cross is for your freedom Until every road is removed from the earth Until even the world starts spinning in reverse You will always feel my peace in your mind Because I will wrap you in the comfort of my words And now as I bleed on this cross My blood signifies the extent of your worth to me I did this because I knew you would thirst for this kind of love And the knowledge of this love will weave new words of comfort And they will provide you with freedom from the shackles of sadness and despair" I hope these words do for you, what they did for me: fill me with the peace that transcends all understanding. |
