Plums sorry it most definitely not is about a girl, you can interpret it that way go ahead, but I'm sure Red would sing about more important things about this especially on this album.

Anyway I absolutely like this song! It's so amazing because, I don't think, it's talking about God leaving us. I believe it's talking about the mystery of Him. How amazing is that? If we had a God whom we would know everything about why worship Him? If we could figure God out there honestly wouldn't be any point to listening to Him because we, essentially, would know everything God knows.

"Somewhere I will find all the pieces torn apart You just left behind in your mystery"

Look at it this way: why do we study Scripture? To know God better, and through that to have a more intimate and deep relationship with Christ. As for the "torn apart" bit I'm not entirely sure why the singer would say that. Maybe he's referring to the mystery as pieces, like a puzzle possibly, that are torn apart. I say this because the next line("You just left behind in your mystery") I always think of when Jesus ascended into Heaven. He left us behind, and so He gave us the Councillor (the Holy Spirit) to guide us, and the Holy Spirit is such a mystery.

In this book called "The Shack" the author refers to the Holy Spirit as "working in mysterious ways". It's a great book, it is a work of fiction, but I believe some things in it can be linked to Scripture. It's an amazing read, and it is quick as well!

Forgiven123, it is true that He makes himself distant and mysterious. He seems that way because all of His actions He has done in your life are beyond our understanding.
