The Beginning Lyrics
i see who you are and who else can compare
i meant what i said
i promised to stand by your side
until the end, that's where we begin
from here to eternity
we begin understanding
it is our hearts that define what has meaning in life
some will ask how can this be but it
was you who made me feel
i meant what i said
i promised to stand by your side
until the end, that's where we begin
from here to eternity
we begin understanding
it is our hearts that define what has meaning in life
some will ask how can this be but it
was you who made me feel

To me this song is about being in a relationship that means a great deal for the first time. It is about how you feel as though you have never really felt before and the person makes you feel a way that is new to you. I really love this song right now because i am starting to like a girl and i have never gone through this part of a relationship before. With my x we kinda skipped the whole begging phase pretty much. I mean i didn't get a chance to slowly build emotions for her. I got guilted into the relationship. But with this HOPEFULLY new one to arise i have gone from nothing to feeling for her a great deal and that is one of the best feelings i have ever felt and this song makes me think of that.
From here to eternity, we begin understanding. From here to eternity, I see who you are and who else can compare?I meant what I said. I promise to stand by your side to the end. Thats where we begin. Until the end, that's where we begin. From here to eternity we begin understanding. It is our hearts that define what has meaning in life. some will ask how can it be, but it was you who made me feel. from now until eternity. we begin understanding. until the end, thats where we begin. until the end, thats where we begin. until the end, thats where we begin. until the end thats where we begin.
the lyrics up there were right, but thats the order they go in and how they were repeated.
I think this song isn't about a girl. It's about God. becuase he lasts forever, and "From here to eternity" that's how long God lasts, and that's how long we'll be with him.
"I think this song isn't about a girl. It's about God. becuase he lasts forever, and "From here to eternity" that's how long God lasts, and that's how long we'll be with him."
Works either way. They look like wedding vows, almost.
This song kicks major ass. The screams, the breakdowns, the riffs. All amazing. Best AILD song yet, IMO.
The breakdown after "that's where we begin" gets stuck in my head everyday.
One of their best songs.
It's a promise to God that he will always stand by his side. It's not about a relationship with some girl, its about his relationship with God.
I wish a god would stand by my side.
aww i feel for you Demonfox..
this song is awesomeness!!
Either God or a girl its about a relationship that is new. New feelings like youve never felt, feelings that make everything ok. Doesnt matter who its about, its the meaning behind it.
Sick guitars in opening of this song one of my favriot as i lay dying songs
well I think hes saying life begins when u surrender ur life to christ and the opening guitat rift sounds a bit like the trooper lol
