Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Once you get closer in too deep
Where there is something I wish for, I'll go through
Want to get closer into you
No hell to discover
I've got it all inside myself
Salvation you have breached a scar
Nothing can turn it around
Looking for a higher ground (higher)
Searching for something I missed before (searchin' for)
From a higher ground (higher)
Will I fall in the right direction? (searchin' for)
Falling apart has nothing real
Devil can be sweet to change what I'll go through
Want to get closer into you
No hell to discover
There is just nothing to betray
Salvation you have bridged a scar
Knowing can turn it around
[Repeat: x3]
Looking for a higher ground (higher)

From a higher ground (higher)
Will I fall in the right direction? (searchin' for)
Looking for a higher ground (higher)

Will I fall down into your arms?

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Why not just buy the damn cd and take the lyrics from the book? Anyway, good song, I really like the new album.
To me, this song is about an inner struggle... abandoning the traditional beleifs to a "higher ground" because "no hell to discover, I got it all inside myself" So she's looking to get out of it and hoping she finds a better way... but going blindly with hope.
Wow..the lyrics are wrong as get back. Whoever's submitting should go to emptyspiral.net and look at the CORRECT lyrics. This is not the first time this site has screwed up Lacuna Coil lyrics. Take heed of that fact.
Another anti-religious song from Lacuna Coil in the same vein of To Myself I Turned. sighs
I agree with Wumpmom, I think it's about inner struggle too.
Thunderbolt, if you're refering to "Heaven's A Lie", I think it wasn't meant to be anti-religious.
I don't think this song is anti-Religious, but it really wouldn't bother me if it was. I'm a Christian, but I hate religion, all it does is make war.
I think this song is about trying to overcome the hell we all feel inside ourselves everyday.
To Myself I Turned is about retreating into a Fantasy world, and in my fantasy world there would be no religion, cause, like I said, religion causes war.
This is not an anti religion song? Are you reading the same thing I am? I understand if many people have confused "Heaven's a Lie" as an anti religion song, but I can't see it here.
i have never heared Lacuna Coil and i don't know really anything about them but i played this song on guitar hero 3 and i decided to look up the lyrics. i think this song is a struggle to find the truth about religion and she doesn't know what to believe, where she'll end up or what she'll find. Really good song by the way!
I am a Christian and im torn inside because i love the song but i hate the lyrics. It says Salvation you have preached is gone No way, you can’t turn it around. That is an absolute lie because no matter what we have done, are doing, or will do in the future. Jesus made it right the moment he died on the cross. And as for religion making war. Yes, IT does but that is nothing we preach. We has Christians are called to Love Our enemies. You have problems with Christians when they dont obey the Bible.

double that, I played it just now on expert, got a 471 streak, (or something), it wasn't that hard.. but yeah, it's a good song.
// Looking for a higher ground Searching for this something missed before ///we don't know what it's about, but it's pretty self explanatory; the higher ground is needed to gain leverage over some current, (probably bad), situation. ///Searching for 'this' something, refers to something she's found now, but hadn't found back then. So the song is reflecting on some past event.
// From a higher ground Will I fall in a right direction? ///that's basically saying "once I find this higher ground to overcome whatever this song is about, will I have actually gotten anywhere, or just have falled further in the wrong direction."
I want to download the song, but my isp are being assholes, 0kb/ps on 13 downloads, not bad for a 8mbps, $90 p/m connection?
