He will tell ya

i read an interview sumwhere and this song is about sum1 who waz abused

'And is this the way you Let your problems drift away to?'

I think it should be too,not to.

I think canadianchick is right. I haven't read any interviews where this song was discussed,but it sounds like someone turning to God in a time when he/she is being abused,or when someone close to them is being abused.

At the beginning of the song I get a picture in my mind of a girl being abused by her father and her mother sitting there pretending it's not happening. As the song goes on,the mother stands up to her husband and seeks out the much needed help.'No more silence',right?

Eventually things work out. 'I'm not afraid of the bed I lay in'

I agree that it's a song about abuse....it sounds like sexual abuse, perhaps even a girlfriend and boyfriend, then near the end, the "i'm not afraid of the bed I lay in" is her saying, "I'm not afraid to sleep, because I know that i'm not going to be abused" ...I dunno... good song though

i don't really get this song, but i'd appreciate it if someone did mention something about it... i know the guy is making some sort of comeback, and a change in his life, but, idk. a little help?

I really like this song, though I feel that it doesn't rise to the height I wanted it to it the chorus. After the build-up I expected more, but I really like the build-up.

I've been trying to figure out what it is about for a while, and I don't really know. TFK being a Christian band, it is probably a Christian message--I'm thinking maybe about being open about your faith and not being afraid about talking about it with other people...? That would kind of work with talking about the girl letting the conversation move away when she has an opportunity to share her faith, thus letting her problems drift away, and with some other parts of the song... But I don't know how the chorus would fit into that

i think this song is also about the expectations that we have on us. the chorus is about how God doesnt care who we are or what we've done he just wants us to accept him. at the beginning the girl was only doing what people expected of her but in the end she breaks free of that.

I can't deny it, no more silence

JESUS ROCKS!!!

Yeah, What is this song about? I actually thought the build up portraid the chorus pretty well. Idk it's just me, but I really like this song. It makes me think that it might be portraying like how he feels with God, and Hows he releasing himself to God, he's giving up his soul, and it's kind of his struggle with it. Idk I'm probably wrong.

It means that we try so hard to get to the top. To impress everyone. But we really need to stop and turn to God. The Chorus is a one on one conversation with God:

I don't want you to be anything at all I just want you to say you love me I don't care, just stop living like this I don't want to be anything at all I just want you to see who I am And stop the violence No more silence

The first half is God telling us that we don't have to worry about all this crap on Earth, (Popularity, sex, drugs, etc.) because all we have to do is love Him and He'll love us back. He doesn't care about our mistakes because we're forgiven.

The second half is our turn in the conversation. It's us coming to God and saying, "I don't care about the world anymore... I only care about you."

When the song refers to "see through my holes" we're telling God to don't look at my sins, which He doesn't (after we ask for forgiveness).
