first an FYI to razr1313... just because a song is titled "hear me now" doesn't mean it has to say it... it does in fact say "can you feel now" in that one part... if you don't believe it then check the lyrics they posted themselves on myspace...
on with the song... although i can see everyone's point on the song being about someone who has reached their limit, i see this song meaning something else...
the song isn't saying "I'VE been down this road" or "i'm sorry I'VE let you down again", it's saying "WE'VE been down this road" and "i'm sorry WE'VE let you down"... i think its talking about one of two things.. its either talking about our generation (generation Y) and how we are looked down upon...
OR it has a bigger meaning... and this is the one i lean towards more... i think this song is a plea to the world in which we live and the people living in it... we are so worried about what other people are doing that we don't care to look at our own lives... and all the world is trying to do is make us believe lie after lie... he is begging (now my body's on the floor and i am calling out to you) the people of the world to change... and even though i know how people get when there is talk of religious conotations in songs but i also think that in parts of the song he is talking to God as well (i'm sorry if we've let you down)... also i think there are two "voices" in the prechorus... one is the world telling you to believe in the lie they are telling you the other voice is saying you need to get on your knees and have faith (obviously) and they seem to be fighting each other... the world wants you to believe that there is no God or higher being to have faith in but you need to believe that because that is your salvation and can be your sanity in this world full of lies and deception...
ps... i have been a fan of these guys since they were just a local band in nashville... WE LOVE OUR NASHVILLE BOYS!!!!!!!!
