Monument Lyrics
It's Monday morning
And I would kill for a chance to drive
Get so far away from here with you my dear
That I'll never leave your side
Nobody knows the troubles I've seen
In a van, on a soapbox for the world to see
Miles away, and I wish this didn't mean so much to me
To be a monument for the rest of them
Miles away, and I wish this didn't mean so much to me
To be a monument for the rest of them
We're getting older and I've started to fear for my life
Is this the way that it should be?
This whole thing's riding on me
It's been a long road so far.
Nowhere to turn.
There's no looking back from here, no more dwelling on my fears
Miles away, and I wish this didn't mean so much to me
To be a monument for the rest of them
Miles away, and I wish this didn't mean so much to me
To be a monument for the rest of them
20 bucks says you'll remember me when you see me on your TV screen
It may be the first time, but it won't be the last time
20 bucks says you'll remember me when you see me on your TV screen
It may be the first time, but it won't be the last time
20 bucks says you'll remember me when you see me on your TV screen
It may be the first time, but it won't be the last time
And I'll scream so loud that everyone in this place will hear every word I say, 'cause this is my time, this my time to shine
Let nothing stand in our way
and I'll scream so loud that everyone in this place will hear every word I say, 'cause this is my time, this my time to shine
Let nothing stand in our way
20 bucks says you'll remember me when you see me on your TV screen
It may be the first time, but it won't be the last time.
And I would kill for a chance to drive
Get so far away from here with you my dear
That I'll never leave your side
Nobody knows the troubles I've seen
In a van, on a soapbox for the world to see
To be a monument for the rest of them
Miles away, and I wish this didn't mean so much to me
To be a monument for the rest of them
Is this the way that it should be?
This whole thing's riding on me
It's been a long road so far.
Nowhere to turn.
There's no looking back from here, no more dwelling on my fears
To be a monument for the rest of them
Miles away, and I wish this didn't mean so much to me
To be a monument for the rest of them
It may be the first time, but it won't be the last time
20 bucks says you'll remember me when you see me on your TV screen
It may be the first time, but it won't be the last time
20 bucks says you'll remember me when you see me on your TV screen
It may be the first time, but it won't be the last time
Let nothing stand in our way
and I'll scream so loud that everyone in this place will hear every word I say, 'cause this is my time, this my time to shine
Let nothing stand in our way
It may be the first time, but it won't be the last time.

The song is about Jeremy having to go on the road to tour and being away from his girlfriend. "Miles away and i wish this ("this" meaning the band and touring) didnt mean so much to me, To be a monument for the rest of them ("monument" is him figuratively being something that the fans love, the fans being "The rest of them")
But also, it speaks of the bands success and how nothing is gonna stop them from getting to the top. ("20 bucks says you'll remember me ("Me" being the band) when you see me on your TV screen, It may be the first time, but it won't be the last time. And I'll scream so loud that everyone in this place will hear every word I say, 'cause this is my time, this my time to shine. Let nothing stand in our way")

I've been saying that you really cant get the true meanings from the lyrics (poetry) because everyone's different and see things differently... But, I'd say you hit the nail there bud. Nicely done.

he is afraid of what would happen in the future but he tells himself bring it on im not afraid of my fears
It's Monday morning and I would kill for a chance to drive Get so far away from here with you my dear
IT SAYS HOW HE NEEDS TO GET AWAY FROM THE TROUBLE HES GOIN ON THROUGH LIFE
"And I'll scream so loud that everyone in this place will hear every word I say, becasue this is my time! This is my time to shine, let nothing stand in our way!"
best line in the song. its really powerful, especially live.
To my ears the line, "There's no looking back from here, no more second guessing my fears" sounds more like, "There's no looking back from here, no more dwelling on my fears"

i just heard this song the other day and conviced me to listen to the rest of there songs but this song is still my favorite
This song is amazing. Definitely one of their best. I'm surprised it doesn't have more comments.
Yeah its "Dwelling on my fears" not "Second guessing on my fears"
I think I love this song=]
