Breaking Benjamin – Torn in Two Lyrics 7 years ago
If you hadn't noticed already, Breaking Benjamin's songs have had more overt Christian messages, I believe that all somewhat started around Phobia's release and Ben's Grandpa's death. I believe this song correlates between the verse from the Bible:"I am torn between the two: I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far; but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body." (1 Phil. 23-24).

"Is this the way it's gotta be? Ignite the fire inside of me" I see as a call to God for an awakening of his spirit.

"I am torn in two
Hold on, hold on
We're barely alive
I am faded through
Hold on, hold on
The fallen arise
I will fight this war for you
And let the dawn of love survive
Broken, I crawl back to life"

"I am faded through", Ben is making the transition from life on earth to life in Heaven (depart with Christ), "I will fight this war for you... broken I crawl back to life" connects with "but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body." to try and fight a for Christ, whether it's a literal war like a crusade or making disciples.
