Lyric discussion by L0uderN0w 

Cover art for This Is All Now lyrics by Taking Back Sunday

In an interview i watched Adam said its a song about how religion can take over your life and stop you from being who you really are ("You don't know yourself").

"I know you mean well with your ancient code of ethics lead by example could you imagine christ hitting a child? you live in a shelter (shelter) built from your own truth"

That to me seems to back it up.

Anyways great song, love it.

on a side note; im sick of people saying "oh this is about that band member that left" on every single one of tbs's songs. Adam has clearly said the lyrics come from their everyday lives. Im sure their lives have more to it than band members leaving.

I hadn't seen this interview so thank you, this was actually the only song off this album that I thought could be about any ex member and that was based off the article and not just trying to make ties that weren't there
