well,growing up listening to RA,i think it's ok to say that most songs by them have more than just 1 meaning,depending on the listeners point of view.
I personally think this is a love song though,but it's possible that it has another meaning,i just can't put my finger in it...
anyway,ATR is good as well.I'm just hoping they could mix their hardcore style from RPM and The Unraveling and their melodic style on TSSOCC and The Sufferer & the Witness.
I think you're right about the dual meaning type of thing - I see the love story, but I also see a Christian message in it. (don't go off on me for tying in religon, im just saying whats a possible meaning).

What if this song's about a person talking to an angel - a messenger of God, saying that he loves the angel (and by angel, I mean God), but he's done too many things in his past to reconcile what he's done. He thinks he's hopeless, and he's damned, and he cant change, but god (through the angel)...

The man doesn't believe the angel, and tells her to stop trying to change him ("im not the answer to the questions that you still have").
Also, throughout the song, he makes several references to how unstoppable time is - how it keeps coming ("there is no time like the present to drink these draining seconds" "As the day pressed on like crushing weights, for no man does it ever wait..."). This makes me think about him not having enough time to change himself for the better.
Just something for you guys to think about, tell me what you think. =D Freakin' love the song, btw.
Matt thats actually a really interesting interpretation i didnt think of it that way (and usually i hate it when people connectt songs to god) but i personally think its about a relationship but the girl wants to change the guy into someone he isnt and the quote "And the day pressed on like crushing weights for no man does it ever wait" sounds like big expectations to the guy and the girl doesnt love him for what he truely is but idk thats wat i think

I agree with Drunken and Matt. I think the part where he says, "But I'm not the answer for the questions you still have" is him telling her God is her answer.
