"Felled in the night by the ones you think you love"
Love this song!! I agree that it's definitely about Daniel from the Bible, but I also think it's a tool so to speak, representing the feeling of being betrayed and hurt by people you love and trusted. Blatantly being stabbed in the back.
This part of the song has proven hard to decipher. I believe I may finally have found a possible solution.

"And felled in the night / By the ones you think you love / They will come for you"
"And felled in the night / By the ones you think you love / They will come for you"
Basing the interpretation on everything in the song being from Daniel's point of view, he seems to be saying someone was "felled in the night", killed or betrayed, by ones who this someone loves. "They will come for you" referring to the ones who killed/betrayed this someone.

Originally I thought this might be referencing Belshazzar who was overthrown in the night by Darius the Mede at the end of chapter 5. And while this seems plausible, it also seems strange that these three lines would be repeated SO many times throughout the song.
So, I think a better explanation is a bit more general. Throughout the book of Daniel, he and his companions are repeatedly betrayed by basically everyone. All of this in spite of the fact that they never seem to show any hate for anyone; only a love for God and desire to be according to His standard.
Anyways, the book of Daniel is pretty amazing. And if you haven't read it yet, you should...
Ah, that generalization definitely fits the context! Like you said, the line's repetition would seemingly apply to Daniel as opposed to anyone else in the story, as the song's namesake. I never realised Daniel was constantly betrayed I just assumed it referred to the one event that led to him being thrown in with the lions, but that is so interesting, maybe i should read the book of Daniel...Thanks heaps:)
