If You Intend Lyrics
If you intend to live again,
then open your eyes and don't pretend you're feeling
there's nothing worth believing.
God, if you persist you'll die like this,
and wither in the midst of your first season,
cut down with no reason.
How can you be so near and not see everything?
If you intend to live again,
then take the outstreched hand of the one that needs
you.
It's been so long, we've missed you.
Why do you intend to speed your end?
Lie in the dark and let your limbs grow weaker,
sinking low then deeper.
How can you be so near and not see everything?
Feel what might be. See what I see.
Again and again and again and again say you don't.
You say you don't, but you will.
How can you be so near and not see?
This song is about motivation - just get on with life! Other people need you, just open your eyes, get up, and get on with it. Stop withering away and feeling sorry for yourself. It's a song about tough love!
