Collision Lyrics
can you understand my meaning hidden in the roses around my eyes
i want you to know how much it means to have you in my life
your love brings me close again in this instance when our worlds collide
the wire of eternity twists around us
i can feel this river rising, moving up my back
some things never change
some things never go away
i could never forget you
and i will never be the same
i want you to know how much it means to have you in my life
your love brings me close again in this instance when our worlds collide
the wire of eternity twists around us
i can feel this river rising, moving up my back
some things never change
some things never go away
i could never forget you
and i will never be the same

this song isn't about God, it's a love song plain and simple.
To me this song is about falling in love with someone. Time to disect the song=D
Line 1: -----To me in this line he is trying to ask the person if they really can see how much he loves them underneath everything else. Roses can be used to descirbe the false beauty of something. That false beauty is just in his eyes though because i doesn't know how the other person feels about him so and he still has all the insecurities and he wonders of they know he has them as well.
Line 2 needs none
Line 3: -----This just means to him it feels like they are meant to be forever
Line 4: -----The river rising is meant by the feeling of water going up ones back. This is used to describe the feeling of love and the feeling of it engulfying you.
Remaining lines also need no explanation
Actually, he is talking about the love of God.

Only the love of God is eternal. Love between two human dies with human death.

This is referring to the kingdom of God v.s. the kingdom of mankind. The reason this song is called "Collision" is not because he is colliding with someone he loves, but the collision is between the ever-perfect God and the sinful mind of the lyricist.

once again.. they're talking about God
I think hes talking about a girl he was in love with but she left him because she questions just how much he loves her. Even though she left him, he cant get over it. "some things never change some things never go away" hes still trying to show her how much she means to him but shes not listening.

"i could never forget you and i will never be the same" hes basically just crushed

my favorite AILD song. lyrics are a-ma-zing
These are just some amazing lyrics...I can't see how anyone cannot feel something in this song.
It is a love song to God man. When you truely have that relationship with christ you love him with all your heart more then anything else in life.
"i can feel this river rising, moving up my back "
That line describes to me the feeling of God's love and the holy spirit entering his life. It is an experience like no other.
Love it, this song is great! My mom hates this kind of music but little does she know the power of a song, ne? This is the first As I lay Dying song i've heard for a while... and i must say im impressed o.o
this is about god, and "Jean Genie" i always thought the "roses around my eyes" line meant someone was crying the thing about AILD is some of there songs are like love songs but they are really about god

Byfar one of the best AILD songs, but seriously what does it matter if its about God or a acutal relationship?? It means something differnt to everyone.
