God Damn Me Lyrics
there isnt enough hot water
to be in
there isnt enough salt lake to
to lie in
there isnt enough sky to fly in
so softly
there isnt enough breath to breathe
not for me
oh god damn me
oh god damn me
there isnt enough snow to see through
snows too deep
there isnt enough fog to see through
not through to me
there isnt enough gain to get from
not for me
oh god damn me
oh god damn me
nothing changes
nothing we erase
nothing to change
nothing but me
oh god damn me
oh god damn me
to be in
there isnt enough salt lake to
to lie in
there isnt enough sky to fly in
so softly
there isnt enough breath to breathe
not for me
oh god damn me
snows too deep
there isnt enough fog to see through
not through to me
there isnt enough gain to get from
not for me
oh god damn me
nothing we erase
nothing to change
nothing but me
oh god damn me

An introspective look at the narrator's self, detailing the problems he seems to love getting himself into ("there isn't enough hot water to be in"), and the limitations he feels in life ("there isn't enough sky to fly in"). He wistfully states "God damn me", which can be interpreted as either an affectionate or unhappy statement about himself, but which is probably a little of both, reflecting the dual nature of most people.
The ballad "Goddamned Me" is "kind of a backhanded apology, like, 'You're stuck with me — What are you gonna do?'"
I like your interpretation. It works for me. Can't believe there aren't more Filter fans out there. This song is awesome.
Yup. A beautiful sincere statement of one's dissapointment, but acceptance of one's self.
Like I said, beautiful. Would love to hear more from them.
