okay, to the defense of laurim, sky explosion, when it says that...
Your touch, your ways
Leave me dumb without reson
Your love, my cage
My prison so pleasing
I spend my days tangled in thoughts of you
Stuck in this place, resigned to be your fool
i am pretty sure its actually Christian lyrics here, but because you don't think so, allow me to break it down for ya ;)
"Your touch, your ways
Leave me dumb without reason"
obviously, God is so great that His touch (metaphorically speaking) and His ways (love) leaves him dumbstruck without reason, now the without reason means that there is no reason why God should love him to do what He did, but he does, so therefore, he is left dumbstruck in aw, and all reason and rationall in the love God has, does not make sense to him (sense none of us can fully grasp nor understand God's love for us)
"Your love, my cage
My prison so pleasing
I spend my days tangled in thoughts of you
Stuck in this place, resigned to be your fool"
Okay since he is God's, that means that nobody can pluck him out of God's hand, "Your love, my cage" he is trapped, even if he wants out, even if he didnt want to be a Christian anymore, hes eternally sealed, (he's in a cage) but he DOES want to be there, he is thankful that he has no choice in whether or not God loves him. "I spend my days tangled in thoughts of you" well that's what it says, ill take that one at face value, he's tangled in thoughts of God, thats part of the cage and prison, that happens, especially when you set forth disciplines that allow time for God.
"Stuck in this place, resigned to be your fool"
as harsh as a term that is used here, i am willing to see "fool" as a humble term and not derogatory towards God. what John is saying is that God is so great that he, as a human is a fool, one who doesnt understand the love of God completely, but that is okay because he is God's. when john says stuck, he is refering to the metaphorical cage of God's love and will, well when you're infatuated and obsessed you tend to go a little loopy and foolish abit (foolish and loopy in the world's eyes) but what he does, he does by faith, and not by reason.... note connect the seemingly lack of reason here to the "without reason" in the second line, you should be starting to pick this up a lil bit now, if not, it can be a bit of a stretch in some ways, but not all too much
