Took It All Lyrics

I really wish I knew what this song was about because it is beautiful, but I don't know for sure. I have a couple guesses and most of them are kind of ridiculous.

  1. Suicide, but they decide not to do it, because "this life's abundancy came clear."
  2. Being in a bad relationship, domestic abuse.
  3. The glass ceiling, sexism, etc - the chorus could be personifying the glass ceiling
  4. It's random words, not supposed to make sense.

And finally, this one makes the most sense and I think it makes the other ideas look stupid by comparison...

Also I think Harmer made up the word "abundancy" - it only exists as a math term. LOL...

  1. Poverty in undeveloped countries. We are taking all their resources, our life is abundant by comparison, we are scared and greedy out of fear, etc.
