have u guys heard this song before? i dont know if any of u r christians or not, im guessing not. countless times i hear someone comment on a christian songs meaning saying like "well i think its about a relationship and how its falling apart". that is right, it is about a relationship......with Jesus. this one in particular with lines like "more than eyes can see" and "something to believe in". it may seem like its too obvious but sometimes it has to be cause some people look way too deep into lyrics. the whole first verse is talkin about looking for something but they dont know what. "Is this where we need to be? Or are we tired of looking?" that says most of us just give up cause we cant find the answer, so we say "well i cant find anything to put my trust into" when actually their just tired of looking for it. "Slipped away, fell away, tried to play yourself No turning back, all alone And there's nobody else Who even knows I'm missing" thats sayin how they feel right now (without Jesus). worthless and abandoned and cant turn back cause they never had anything to turn back to. the verse is sayin hes going to listen to the "Jesus freaks" next time they talk about their beliefs. cause he has been running from the christian faith since its ridiculed so much, he doesnt think he has the courage to stand up to the slander. he wants more, so hes waiting till it hits him instead of running. second verse is saying how hes getting that feeling again how every time he starts to have faith nothing seems to change like everyone says it will. and he cant wait anymore but realizes that there is nothing else to lose or gain if he walks away again. also, almost forgot, the first verse where it says "Slipped away, fell away, tried to play yourself No turning back, all alone And there's nobody else Who even knows I'm missing" hes actually believed before but fell away, which also comes in again on the second verse. last one, "cant believe this chance were taking" the "chance" is thinking Jesus is not the answer, thinking theres something else. hes knows, he feels that its right, but the enemy is steppin in planting seeds of doubt into his head. if anyone thinks otherwise please comment and explain the lines better than that. thank you for reading. God bless
