The key lyrics to the song are:
"I saw two fall before they were ready to
and I found no sense or gain to bear the cost
comfort comes to those with faith in mysterious ways
But for me faith don’t make up for what we lost"
Two people died young, Josh couldn't see the point, people always say to "have faith in God's mysterious ways" when you can't understand why someone dies young, but Josh is still focussed on his loss and faith isn't enough to overcome this sense of loss.
"But in the morning I can smell you on my pillow
I need to know we won’t get wrung out in the wash
I need to know there’s time for us
I must believe there’s time for some of us"
Even though "there won't be time for all of us" there is still a sense of hopefulness in this song...almost like Josh is pleading with fate to give him a chance to make the best of his life with his loved one.
