I listened to this song on repeat and I cried myself to sleep. What I got from it is when he says "close your eyes until the sunlight dies in your head a thousand stars through the darkness you can see a light" it's metaphorically speaking when you close your eyes and you are wishing or praying to get of a dark slump that someone may have caused you, you see or feel a light of hope in the darkness praying that there's still hope. The part where he sings "i want to believe in you and i heard you your song, you sing, a truth is no other i want to believe in you, dear on Sunday" Well to me it means he wants to believe what they are saying specifically on Sunday when we usually show up to church and are forgiving we tend to be more open and loving, therefore he feels he should believe them they are speaking truth because hey it's Sunday a holy day. "there's a life i hide but i try to disguise and i could take you a million miles away" this to me means he isn't living an authentic life. His life isn't genuine but if he were to be raw and real it can take you out of this world meaning he hasn't showed you everything he is capable of. "on sunday i made amends of all my mistakes may godspeed be with you" To me this means he might of went to church or prayed because it's a Sabbath day and he asked God for forgiveness for all his mistakes and is asking God to help them with what that person was asking or saying to be true "may Godspeed be with you." "and if they steal your light your heart is still in mine" I think this means if what the other person is saying isn't true like they continue to lie, their heart at least is still theirs because obviously that person loves them. |
