Trust me, I listened to the lyrics. I know what the lyrics say, and I know what the song's about. Maybe I should rephrase my last comment seeing that people hate the word 'emo' so much... what I meant was that it's another song by TFK about a...DEPRESSED...person who eventually finds some comfort. Let's take a look.

Small Town off of Set It Off is about a DEPRESSED girl who nobody acknowledges, she doesn't know why she's alive, she shuts herself up in her room (sounds emo to me but whatever) so anyway she finds a church an at the end she's ok.

This Is a Call off of Phenomenon in the first verse tells about a coughEMOcough girl who's got all these problems and she fakes being ok. The second verse is about a coughEMOcough guy who is all depressed and everything but hides his feelings. Then yes, the chorus is about asking God for help in depression.

Broke Wing from The Flame In All of us, for the sake of saving space, is along the same story line as the last to. So, along comes Look Away. It's about the same thing.

Sorry if I offended anyone with using the word "emo" but the people in the song kinda fit the description. And yes, I know there is a positive message to it. That was beside my point. I just thought it was another traditional uplifting song about depressed teenagers (not that there's anything necessarily bad about that. But if iwnbts17 was right, then that's pretty cool.

Great Song!
