This is my life
its not what it was before,
all these feelings i have shared,
theese are my dreams
that id never lived before
somebody shake me cause i,
i must be slpeeing
/Chorus/
Now that we are here,its so far away
All the struggle we trought was in vain
All the mistakes, one life contained
they all finally start to go away
Now that we are here its so far away
and i feel like i can face the day,
and i can forgive,
and i am not ashamed,
to be the person that i am today
these are my words,
ive never said before,
i think i am doing ok,
this is the smile,
i have never shown before,
somebody shake me ccause i,
i must be slpeeping
/Chorus/
I am so afraid, of waking,
Please dont shake me,
i am afraid of awaking,
please dont shake me
/Chorus/
its not what it was before,
all these feelings i have shared,
theese are my dreams
that id never lived before
somebody shake me cause i,
i must be slpeeing
/Chorus/
Now that we are here,its so far away
All the struggle we trought was in vain
All the mistakes, one life contained
they all finally start to go away
Now that we are here its so far away
and i feel like i can face the day,
and i can forgive,
and i am not ashamed,
to be the person that i am today
these are my words,
ive never said before,
i think i am doing ok,
this is the smile,
i have never shown before,
somebody shake me ccause i,
i must be slpeeping
/Chorus/
I am so afraid, of waking,
Please dont shake me,
i am afraid of awaking,
please dont shake me
/Chorus/

This is the absolute moment when you find out after making your ardorous climb through life, that you're going to alright. That success (personal of course -- whatever you want out of life) will come and that all the pain will be washed away. The pivotal moment when the suffering will cease.
How do I know this? I don't! I am so trying to reach that moment and I can feel I'm almost there but I think I have a couple more lessons in life before I reach the peak.
"I am so afraid, of waking,
Please dont shake me"
When finally your dream comes true and you are worried that things will fall apart again. Only because life has been such a bumpy rollar coaster ride. You go up-then down-up-down. But now you start to realize that it will no longer be like that. That finally everything you've wanted starts to come true. And then you feel as if you're sleeping, living in a pure place you dreamt about for far too long.
Can't wait to get there.
Someday...
I still am head over heels about her, but in my head it feels like whenever I want to talk to her, it feels like I'm constantly inconveniencing her, and it's tearing me up inside.
This is a beautifully written song, and definitely sums up, for me, the feelings I have towards this girl.
The hope and the love and the joy and the optimism and the desperation in it... it's so hard to listen to.
Yeah, yeah this was a song that reminds me of an ex, and my youth, and how stupid the sentiment "it's for the best" is. And all kinds of crap like that.
*sigh*
I believe it's about a man who has had hard life and decided to go far away "now that we're here so far away" from his previous life. After he ran, he finds someone who he truly loves and can't believe he's with her. He feels that he is able to show her his life and how screwed-up it is and through the struggles and pain in his life he's finally found meaning and the mistakes go away from his mind because they don't matter anymore. Beautiful song.
On a side note, this song is the total opposite of The Punisher. Like 3 lines actully fit into the movie. heh.
now. how many "truths" weren't so true? and how many plans didn't go quite right?
i've lived twenty lives since high school. but when i think of where i thought i'd be, i'm blown away. when i look back on all my plans, i'm shocked. when i look around at everyone and everything that's changed, it makes me cry.
it took a while to accept this change. it was like, who the hell am i now, and what happened to me?
this song is about reflecting on that, and then being able to face the changes and be happy the way things turned out. despite the mistakes and changes. it's the epiphany that comes after the inability to grasp all the changes.
and it's the instability that comes with knowing that tomorrow you might wake up and not be able to accept things like you can in this perfect moment in time.
And finally when your pride is broken and you can really see and except who you are now...
"Now that we are here its so far away, and i feel like i can face the day, and i can forgive, and i am not ashamed, to be the person that i am today"
Also points out that whoever we've become and am today we shouldn't be ashamed of. This song is like Aaron is closing a few chapters which he had a really tough and rough time in his life, and he can finally forgive those who've hurt him and he's proud of who he's became.
