The first time I heard the chorus it broke my heart... I really believe that this song is about someone who died and is now in hell because in the chorus she says "Please give me something I'm so thirsty, I'm so thirsty" and people who had near death experiences in hell talk about how thirsty they were in hell because of how humid it was there and there was no water at all in hell... It also mentions in the bible of how precious water would be to those in hell... And in the song she also says "Oh please, let me warn them Don't you come here, don't bring anyone here" Shes begging God to bring her back to earth to warn everyone that hell really does exist and that its so horrible that she would'nt want anyone on Earth to have to go there. Just watch near death experiences on youtube. This song really does make you realize how bad hell is once your there... Anyways God Bless to you all... hopefully this gave you a better understanding of the song.

Wow, reading your explanation... Wow. I hadn't thought of the song in that way before (and I completely agree) it has given the song a whole new meaning for me. Thank you!

WOW, i can agree with that, now listening through again, thank you for that

No actually i think the song is about a story on the bible (luke chapter 16 verse 19 through 31) yeah about the story about lazarus and the rich man. Go read it, its fun ^_^
