I think it might just be all right,
To put what matters out of sight.
Old habits die hard holding on,
Inevitable means it's never gone.
[Prechorus]
Told myself what I need to hear,
I think the point was very clear.
Showed myself what we missed since we,
Slipped into inconsistency.
Seems as if my ties with you've been severed,
I can't seem to hold it all together.
I just fall apart, cus thats my Trademark.
[Chorus]
It's my, my trademark move,
To turn my back on you.
It's my, my trademark move,
To realize I should improve.
And sometime, soon after that,
You'll see me, come crawling back.
[2 lines I can't remember, will fix later]
Let go of everything that's hurting me,
Until you finish your work in me.
[Prechorus]
[Chorus x4]
To put what matters out of sight.
Old habits die hard holding on,
Inevitable means it's never gone.
Told myself what I need to hear,
I think the point was very clear.
Showed myself what we missed since we,
Slipped into inconsistency.
I can't seem to hold it all together.
It's my, my trademark move,
To turn my back on you.
It's my, my trademark move,
To realize I should improve.
You'll see me, come crawling back.
Let go of everything that's hurting me,
Until you finish your work in me.
[Chorus x4]

best song off the new album!
It's about the cycle we as Christians can so easily get to, of running to and from God. Its like, we finally get close, then get scared and run away, then realize we need him more than we thought, and it repeats over and over. Good song, easy for me to relate to
same for me, I've written a lot of songs along the same lines.
I'll kill the thing that turns me away amputate the arm that will disobey.
that's actually a passage from the bible, i forget which one. one of the apostles said he never wanted to disobey the lord, and he'd cut off one of his arms if it did anything bad...

Not quite... the verse is Matthew 5:30 and it says if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away because it is better to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. One of the Apostles never threatened to cut off his arm if it did anything bad... =P
This song is a good example of Relient K's belief and music type. This song is probably confused by an unbeliever as a carnal or secular song, but really if you look close enough, it's about a spirital relation ship with God. Another example would be "Pressing On", most people think is just a song with no spirial message.
I like Relient K because they cant take feelings and things like that, and communicate them in such a down-to-earth and easy to understand, way.
