This lyric is about how I feel about myself and how I relate or it relates to the world around me. I think for so long in my life, I felt like I never fit in. This is one of the big reasons why I turned to drugs and alcohol. But I ended up feeling the same there too. I just need to find a place in life where I feel comfortable. It's an everyday search for me.
This lyric is about wanting to get back what I lost. I know I made mistakes in the relationship, and I'm pleading for one more chance. Not in a begging way, but in a way that says hey we had a great thing, I messed up, and what can I do to fix it and then move on. It's definitely a love song, with an opposite side to it. Aside that has deceit, lies, and pain
Steve Jobs said, "Your time is limited; don't waste it living someone else's life," and that is the heart and message of this song. We often get caught up in the motions of life and forget that our days on earth are numbered; even if one had a thousand years, they'd still come to an end. Many people tiptoe through life, hoping to make it safely to death, as one philosopher put it. We have people trapped in jobs they don't like, living lives they hate, and they feel like there is no way out of their misery; they have become so enslaved by society that they have forgotten about the dreams they once nurtured in their hearts when they had the liberty of mind to fantasize and explore the world of their imagination. The song is a reminder that each of us has a purpose to fulfill during our short stay on this side of eternity. It speaks of the fleeting nature of time, and challenges us in the Bridge to cut loose from the crowd, dare out into the unknown and chase the visions we hear calling out to us beyond.
The song is about a songwriter who faces the difficult task of reconciling the words and actions of his lover, which seem to be quite contradictory. He is gifted with the ability to write but, apparently, cannot sing too well. The girl can, but has never offered to try to sing any of his songs. She says she loves them when he sends her something he's written, but doesn't post them on her socials for others to see these works she's so proud of. She can also write quite well, but has only joined him to write one time, at his casual request. The Chorus lands the plane, describing the conflict that goes on within him, which is further expatiated in the Bridge when he says his mind is "under fire", a rather graphic picture of the fight inside. He knows she loves him, truly, but can't seem to understand why her actions tell a different story. It's a highlight of the plight some couples find themselves in, where there is a lot of love and other emotional accompaniments, but not as much support when it comes to the personal goals and struggles the individuals in the relationship are left to battle on their own.
The beauty industry is huge in today's society. Girls and women particularly are sucked deeply into it, investing in a lot of things to enhance their beauty from simple efforts like make-up to rather extreme ones like plastic surgery. But, how necessary are these things? Have we lost perspective? What really defines true beauty? The song addresses this and attempts to let those who feel uneasy about how they look know that they can be beautiful the way they are; one doesn't have to fit into the mold that society has created for them in order to find acceptance and happiness. This vice-like conformity has injured the esteems of many a victim, and keeps luring more and more of its unsuspecting customers into its trap every day, especially with the increasingly pervasive influence of media, both digital and social. There's more to beauty than the outward appearance, and we ought to focus more on that inner beauty that comes from the heart as the Bible admonishes in 1 Peter 3:3-4.
