Forever Lyrics
Do you know I could never leave you?
And I know i could never beat you
And I find, i can never find you
Nevermind, I will not forget you
Can I stay alive forever?
Can I stay alive forever?
Can I stay alive forever?
Forever
Can I feel a chemical reaction?
Cause I found a hideous attraction
Can we share a poison apple?
Can it be that we've occured for nothing
Can I stay alive forever?
Can I stay alive forever?
Can I stay alive forever?
Forever
Forever
Stay alive forever
Forever
Stay alive forever
Stay alive forever...
And I know i could never beat you
And I find, i can never find you
Nevermind, I will not forget you
Can I stay alive forever?
Can I stay alive forever?
Forever
Cause I found a hideous attraction
Can we share a poison apple?
Can it be that we've occured for nothing
Can I stay alive forever?
Can I stay alive forever?
Forever
Stay alive forever
Forever
Stay alive forever

First of all, Breaking Benjamin is an awesome band and I love them; they never dissapoint me. Now, talking about the song, in my opinion Forever is an Impossible Love song. Why? Jugde for yourself:
Do you know I could never leave you? And I know I could never beat you (She already knows about his feelings for her and he's reminding her that he would never leave her, He knows that she will never be his enemy and will never fight with her 'cause he loves her)
And I find, I can never find you Nevermind, I will not forget you (He realizes that she will never be for him, He doesn't care at all, but he'll never forget her)
Can I stay alive forever? Can I stay alive forever? Can I stay alive forever? Forever (He is asking to himself if he can or will stay in love with her forever)
Can I feel a chemical reaction? Cause I found a hideous attraction (He begins to feel something for her, He secretly is in love with her)
Can we share a poison apple? Can it be maniacle and awful (He wants to stay with her to death, He wouldn't care how cruel the life can be with him, just by staying with her everything's alright for him)
Can I stay alive forever? Can I stay alive forever? Can I stay alive forever? Forever (Same as above)
Forever Stay alive forever Forever Stay alive forever
Stay alive forever... (Same as above, but more desperate)
Alright, this is my interpretation of this song, and I interpretated it this way because everytime I hear it reminds me of an impossible love I have. If you don't like my interpretation, I don't really care n_n, after all it's MY interpretation. Have a nice day!
Impossible love? Are we in a 3rd world country with arranged marriages? Last I checked, Buddy, impossibilities begin and end in the MIND, unless you are like I and strive to be Miss Universe; the highest paid high fashion model in Europe; and one of Hugh's favorite gurls:) Good band. Good song. As for the defeatest attitude, my daddy would have told you to "Bite the bullet!" He'd also have said "Don't be a limp wrist" but that's not a socially acceptable comment these days:)

Well, this may be TOTALLY wrong, seeing as I dont have the CD book to look at the lyrics, but to me, it seems like it sounds:
Can I stay in love forever?
But iunno. Just me.
I think a lot of people have it wrong, I dont think its to do with dying. I think it's about a relationship, where the girl makes him feel so alive, he wants to feel like that forever. Idk :)
It's a beautiful song. It's, in my opinion, about being in love.
This song is obviously talking about death
The lines
"Do you know I could never leave you And you know i could never beat you In a fight, i can never fight you Never mind, I will not forget you"
He is talking about how he can not escape death no matter what he does. He is pleading, begging death to stay alive. If anyone knows the story behind Ben Burnley, he has many phobias, and I'm sure dying is one of them.
I'm sorry, but this song IS NOT A LOVE SONG!!!! I can not express how much i hate when people call every song they hear a love song. I'm all up for open interpretation, but this song is clearly straight forward if you listen to the lyrics close enough.
this is about a boy that is in love with his female fren.. he knows he cant get her probably coz she's in love with another .. he knows he cares too much for this fren.. he can never get past her . he's unhurt yet coz he still feels alive.. he wont mind how she feels , coz he cannot forget her (Do you know I could never leave you? And I know i could never beat you And I find, i can never find you Nevermind, I will not forget you) he asks . if it's ok for them to be together as couple. he asks if she feels the same way he feels.. but he knows it's too big a thing to ask from her .. (could it be maniacle and awful) he wont mind how she feels , coz he cannot forget her.. he's not hurt yet coz hope still lingers on so he's asking her if this hope can last forever.. can he feel alive forever!! you cannot actually understand the lyrics untill you experience it..I'm so much in love with this song now
This song is really amazing, they did a really good job witht his cd.
I believe he is singing about someone dying in a relationship and the love is so strong that he wants to die too. When he asks if he wants to stay alive forever he basicaly is asking if can he die too.
I've cried listening to this song. I must have listened to it at least 50 times. Beautiful! Ben's voice tears me up.
this song is so amazingly beautiful, wow. i'm not too sure what it's about... losing someone (one way or the other) almost as soon as you have found them... wishing to stay alive forever so you can find them again... i dunno. this song makes me sad though
I love the part that goes
Can I feel a chemical reaction? Cause I found a hideous attraction Can we share a poison apple? Can it be that we've occured for nothing
Ben is an AMAZING singer.
