Fault Line Lyrics
We all hurt
We all need
We all cry
We all bleed
These dreams, these desires, they consume me
The good, the bad, the ugly aren't too much to take
I've been put in this position, but now I can't bear to leave
Stand here with me
Together we'll get through this
Stand here with me, and we'll wash it all away
Without you I'm nothing, yes
I've come to understand this
Without you I'm worthless, yes
I've come to understand this
I've been handed my life by you
The least I can do is listen
Pull me aside, and step inside
I'll listen to your horror stories
Let this song be your motivation
Let your life be your inspiration
You can't hide your fear in this chorus forever
If I could do more
I promise you I would
but this is your time
If I could do more
I promise you I would
but this is your time now
Whisper your grief
Scream your sorrow
Proclaim your love
Just don't call me your hero [x2]
Tell me your stories
I'll lend you my ears
Tell me your horror
I'll make it disappear
I'm absorbing the impact of the young at heart
Young at heart
We all hurt
We all need
We all cry
We all bleed
We have hope
We all need
We all cry
We all bleed
The good, the bad, the ugly aren't too much to take
I've been put in this position, but now I can't bear to leave
Stand here with me
Together we'll get through this
Stand here with me, and we'll wash it all away
I've come to understand this
Without you I'm worthless, yes
I've come to understand this
The least I can do is listen
Pull me aside, and step inside
I'll listen to your horror stories
Let your life be your inspiration
You can't hide your fear in this chorus forever
I promise you I would
but this is your time
If I could do more
I promise you I would
but this is your time now
Scream your sorrow
Proclaim your love
Just don't call me your hero [x2]
I'll lend you my ears
Tell me your horror
I'll make it disappear
Young at heart
We all hurt
We all need
We all cry
We all bleed
We have hope

It's the band replying to the fans they helped that they are also humans and you can't depend on music to save your life forever. You are the only one that can go after what you want and need.
"We all hurt, we all need, we all cry, we all bleed" - It's ABR saying that they are humans too, they have emotions and are not "Gods" or "Heroes".
"Stand here with me, together we'll get through this, stand here with me, and we'll wash it all away" and "Tell me your stories, I'll lend you my ears, tell me your horror, I'll make it disappear" - The band is saying that when possible they'll help anyone who is in need.
"If I could do more I promise you I would, but this is your time" - We made music to cheer you up, now it's time for you to go and give your best to face a situation.
"You can't hide your fear in this chorus forever" - If music is helping, nice! But now you have to create courage.
"Whisper your grief, scream your sorrow, proclaim your love, just don't call me your hero" - It's the summary of the whole song. ABR is saying "WE ARE NOT HEROES", we are happy that we can help you, but please don't make us gods or something like that, we are also humans.
Having read that the band has Christian tendencies it could be suggested that this is about God (well God is the "I will listen").
Otherwise could be simply between two friends, and one is there to support them (maybe a parent or loved one also).
