I don't know how the stars hang
How there's night and then there's day
I don't know how you've spoken to the black
And made it all go pale

[Chorus]
All that I know is the bleeding in my heart
And the healing in your touch
All that I know is that you gave everything
So let that be enough...it's all I know, it's all I know

I don't know how your love works
How you cover me in grace
I don't know how you swallow all I am
When I can't stand my taste, oh

[Chorus]
All that I know is the bleeding in my heart
And the healing in your touch
All that I know is that you gave everything
So let that be enough...it's all I know

And I can't explain your mystery,
But I know the answer..Mmmm

[Chorus]
All that I know is the bleeding in my heart
And the healing in your touch
All that I know is that you gave everything
So let that be enough...it's all I know, you're all I know

    i agree with kkr789. it's about God and how amazing he is. we can never understand everything there is to know about God but we should know that he is the answer. I am absolutely in love with this song. it's incredible

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

Word Alive, The
This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone). And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
