My Beautiful Rescue Lyrics
I've been jumping from the tops of buildings
For the thrill of the fall
Ignoring sound advice
And any thought of consequence
My bones are shattered
My pride is shattered
And in the midst of this self-inflicted pain
I can see my beautiful rescue
I'm falling more in love
With every single word I withhold
I'm falling more in love
With every single word you say
I'm falling head-over-heels for you
I've been dancing on the tops of buildings
At the top of my lungs, I'm singing you a song
Don't you leave me alone
My bones were shattered
My pride lays shattered
Well, I'll trample my pride
And tell the whole world to dance with me
I'm falling more in love
With every single word I withhold
I'm falling more in love
With every single word you say
I'm falling head over heels for you again
Well I'm crying out,
"Wash my hands, these bloody hands lord open my mouth and I'll sing."
I'm falling more in love
With every single word I withhold
I'm falling more in love
With every single word you say
I'm falling head-over-heels for you
I've been dancing on the tops of buildings with you
For the thrill of the fall
Ignoring sound advice
And any thought of consequence
My bones are shattered
My pride is shattered
And in the midst of this self-inflicted pain
I can see my beautiful rescue
With every single word I withhold
I'm falling more in love
With every single word you say
I'm falling head-over-heels for you
At the top of my lungs, I'm singing you a song
Don't you leave me alone
My bones were shattered
My pride lays shattered
Well, I'll trample my pride
And tell the whole world to dance with me
With every single word I withhold
I'm falling more in love
With every single word you say
I'm falling head over heels for you again
"Wash my hands, these bloody hands lord open my mouth and I'll sing."
With every single word I withhold
I'm falling more in love
With every single word you say
I'm falling head-over-heels for you

This is so me and my boyfriend. It reminds me so much of him.
When we first met, I was pretty miserable. I was at a new school, missed my friends like crazy, and was having a really rough time. I didn't make it any easier for myself by not talking and not trying to make friends. Then I was forced to talk to him while we worked together on something, and he became, in so many ways, my escape from the rest of the school. I love him so much now, I can't imagine what would have happened if I hadn't changed schools.
this song is definitely a Christian song!!! Right??? are they a Christian band?
Well basically, the guy is saved. So after he realizing his sins, he will discard his pride and sing and dance for the Lord. "Well I'm crying out "Wash my hands, these bloody hands, Lord" And I'll open my mouth and I'll sing Whoa-ho-ho-ho"
no offense, but this is a site to ask/give yiour thoughts about the meanings of songs. not to talk about your boyfriend and when you are getting their cd.
a lot of people have the same ideas of what this means as me.
i see this song in two different ways. the first way is religious, just like harlequingurl said.

I've been dancing on the tops of buildings At the top of my lungs I'm singing you a song Don't you leave me alone My bones were shattered My pride lay shattered Well, I'll trample my pride Until the whole world will dance with me.
And in the midst of this self-inflicted pain, I can see my beautiful rescue.
I've been dancing on the tops of buildings, With you.
i'm not very religious, so some of my comments may sound off. sorry.
now the other way i see it is a guy is in love with a girl and can't think of a way to say it to her, so he writes a song about it. I've been jumping from the tops of buildings For the thrill of the fall, ignoring sound advice and any thought of consequence My bones are shattered My pride is shattered And in the midst of this self-inflicted pain, I can see my beautiful rescue.
-"i've been jumping from the tops of buildings" they're in love an feel like they're capable of everything. maybe even flying [?]
I'm falling more in love With every single word I withhold. I'm falling more in love With every single word you say. I'm falling head over heels for you.
I've been dancing on the tops of buildings, With you.
i guess you could interpret the song in a lot of different ways. again, please excuse my ignorance of religion and faith and such. hope all this helps. :]
I completely agree with this! Just fantastic, I want to run around screaming this song! and I think you were dead on with the religious thing. It sounds to me a little more deeper than just a relationship. Just the way he sings it I guess.

the whole idea about Christianity is not being "religious" its having a relationship with Jesus. he is just maddly in love with the Lord. this song makes me happy =]

this song is saying how someone has come into his life during his darkest times and worst moments and turned it around completely. now he enjoys his life because this person has made it all better. i imagine them dancing alone on a rooftop at night with lots of lights, and its just the two of them, and then people see theyre in love and realize love is a great thing. then more people join in and fall in love and dance with them, and realize their appreciation for their wonderful life and stop being depressed. this is a very beautiful song.
i cant believe no one has commented on this song its sooo amazing, its pretty straight forward...the first verse is by far the best. i cant wait for this CD to come out its going to be F***ING AMAZING!!
their new CD will be be my favorite CD this year!
i just heard the song, the first few lines grabbed me.. i'm now completely amazed and in love with this song. maybe i'll sing this song to my first love.. it's just an amazing love song.

its "wash these hands, the bloody hands Lord" this whole song is about loving God and his forgiveness... not some girl that he loves.

i was only off by one line, sending the "actual lyrics" was really unnecessary.
