Hate, something, sometime, someway,
something kick on the front floor.
Mine? Something, inside.
I'll never ever follow.
So give.. me.. some.. thing.. that.. is.. for.. real.
I'll never ever follow.
Get your boogie on...
Hate, something, someway, each day, feeling ripped off again.
Why? This shit inside.
Now everyone will follow.
So give.. me.. noth.. ing.. just.. feel.
And now this shit will follow.
God thinks we will never see the light, who wants to see?
God told me, I've already got the life, oh I see...
God thinks we will never see the light, who wants to see?
God told me, I've already got the life, oh I say...
Oh, I see
Each day I can feel it swallow, inside something they took from me.
I don't feel your deathly ways.
Each day i feel so hollow, inside I was beating me,
You will never see, so come dance with me.
Dance with me
Rumbiddieboo
Rum bum dee dum dee bum diddie doo
ME!
God thinks we will never see the light, who wants to see?
God told me, I've already got the life, oh I see...
God thinks we will never see the light, who wants to see?
God told me, I've already got the life, oh I say...
Got the life.
Got... the... life.

To me, Jonathan has a conflict with his inner-self. He speaks of something inside, and that's what acts in a rather blithe manner to what he feels. He says, for example:
- Hate, something, sometime, someway, something kick off the front floor. // I'm not OK.
- Mine? Something, inside. // Something inside says:
- I'll never ever follow. // The voice is reluctant to follow God, no matter how things get.
- So give.. me.. some.. thing.. that.. is.. for.. real. // He's asking for directions...
- I'll never ever follow. // His voice says on the inside: "I still won't go there."
The song is about how he is looking for God because his life is destroyed, but there's something inside that is rebellious against following God, albeit his life is a mess. It's an anthem, for sure. The Chorus goes like:
- God paged me, I'll never see the light // God/Christians say that I'm going to hell for what I do.
- Oh, I still see. // It's being sarcastic: "I'm already in hell --I can see quite well."
- God told me, I've already got the life, oh I say... // God offered him 'life', and he's being sarcastic: "Oh, I see/say." as in "Good for you!"
