It's time to rest
not to sleep away
My thoughts alone
try to complicate
I'll do my best to seek you out,
to be myself, and not to impersonate
Possibly could be talking about how hard it is to be a Christian sometimes with all the temptations of the world (sex, drugs, violence). "My thoughts alone complicate." His own thoughts are confusing him...he's looking for direction. "to be myself, and not to impersonate." he just wants to be himself, to be true to God and not become a fake, insincere, impersonation of himself.
I'm going in so cover me
Your compass will help me turn the page
The laughing stock I'll never be
'cause I won't let them take me
He's decided to dedicate himself to God and is asking for the strength to accomplish this "cleansing" of the filth of the world. He won't "let them take me" is him deciding to be resilent againts peer pressure and influence.
I took a walk to see
all the love that's around me
Through the highs and lows
there's a truth that I know
and it's you
Yeah
The truth is God, who is there through the high and lows, the ups and downs.
So that's MY over-interpertation of the song [:
just thought someone ought to be a christian spin on this one
Think you sooo much for putting my thoughts into words :D
but he isnt strong and this song is his cry out to the lord. asking for forgivness, begging for his help.
true he might of had a problem at one point "I tried so hard to not walk away" thats saying that he tried not to walk away from his problems but he cant cause you cant run away from your problems. and he is realizing that he need god and he will find faith in him and become stronger.
everytime i hear this song i think about my life and how i should be a better person each day, a year ago i found what i was looking for and now im in love with god. and my heart sinks everytime i hear this song, just noticing how much of an impact god has made on my life, god is so great. and i can never run from the lord, cause when everything is lost, if im ever poor and living on the street and i have lost everything i will still have god.
he fer sure is the greatest. i have seen a homeless man with just a bike and ratty clothes show up to a church up a 1 mile hill. i admire this man for never losing his faith. i truly love the lord
The line
"I tried so hard to not walk away
and when things don't go my way
I still carry on and on just the sa-ay-ame"
hits me so because the relationship didn't end the way I wanted it to, yet I still need to just rely on God, and know he's looking out for the best for me.
I personally think it's about some one who walks away from their troubles, but has finally found someone they love, someone that makes them confident enough to stand up for themselves, but are too scared to ask the other person out, to scared of rejection. And asks God if they can help.
So yeah, it probably about God, and how he helps people survive the torture that people go through. To show them that will be better days, so if your ever going through a hard time, don't give up on your life yet, it will get better sooner or later.
