Nature's Law

Embrace (UK)

I tried to fight the feeling, the feeling took me down,
I struggle and I lost the day you knocked me out,
Now everything's got meaning and meanings bring me down,
I'm watching as the screening of my life plays out.

Every day I fight these feelings,
For your sake I will hide the real thing,
You can run all your life; for mine, I will chase...

You should never fight your feelings,
When your very bones believe them,
You should never fight your feelings,
But you have to follow nature?s law.

I'll live with never knowing, if knowing's gonna change,
I'll stop the feeling growing, I will stay away,
Like a broken record stuck before a song,
A million beginnings, none of them the one.

Every day I fight these feelings,
For your sake I will hide the real thing,
You can run all your life; for mine, I will chase...

You should never fight your feelings,
When your very bones believe them,
You should never fight your feelings,
But you have to follow nature's law.

I wrote her letters and tried to send them,
In a bottle I placed my hope,
An SOS full of good intentions,
Seek your will, you'll give it to me,
Don't make me wait,
You build me up, now take down,
But I will stand my ground,
And guide this light that I've found.

You should never fight your feelings,
When your very bones believe them,
If you let them show you'll keep them,
I know you're hurt but soon you'll rise again,
Again, again, again, again, again, again, again..

You should never fight your feelings,
When your very bones believe them,
You should never fight your feelings,
I have to follow nature's law.

    Embrace look ready to release another great album to follow up their previous one. This song provides more than enough evidence for this to happen. Anyway I believe that this song is about hiding your feelings and being to shy to talk to a girl who you have a secret love with and worried about rejection (looks quite obvious but you never know, I'm often wrong)

    I think that this song is quite simplistic, yet powerful. I think the words really speak for themselves so it's just about revealing your feelings before it's too late. I (L) this song!!!

    This song is just beautiful, and the 'Listen to your Heart' music by Roxette fits the song perfectly! The track describes the situation of trying to hold back your feelings for someone because you're scared that they may reject you. Its a tough situation, just what do you do? Do you carry on the way things are, or do you just follow natures law and risk ur friendship in the process?

    "Listen to your Heart" is about the person who has to make the choice about the relationship, whereas this song is about the person who has no control in that person's choice. It's kind of the other side of the story in my mind, but yeah, the exact same subject. It's an amazing song, and I agree, spot on with how it feels to be in such a situation. The irony is that neither person really has a choice because the matter in question is love. I get the feeling that the narrator of this song is trying to do what's best for the girl he loves, and if that means biting the tongue, so be it. But there is evidence he hopes she'll come around: "like a broken record stuck before a song", as well as lines that indicate self-abuse: "in a bottle I placed my hope" (a nice double-entendre). All in all, a well-written, fresh new song that has me loving this band more than ever. "We don't choose who we love, we don't choose..."
