The death of Christ on the Cross ushered us into liberty from the bondage of sin. The icing on the cake is that His ministry didn't end there; He lives on as our High Priest before the Father, interceding for us daily in order that He may present us to God blameless on the last day (1 Thessalonians 5:23). What a Gospel, one so glorious that He has entrusted us to take its message to those in our worlds so that they too can receive the blessings of its truth; to bring them home to love, faith and hope, the three eternal principles of the Kingdom (1 Corinthians 13:13). The other mind-blowing reality of this is that we have been raised with Christ to a position of authority where we rule in victory in His Name (Ephesians 2:4-6). These are the themes expressed in this song, and the Bridge invites all to bring high praise to the risen King who brought us back to God, and defeated man's greatest fear: the sting of deaths.

Times come when relationships go through turbulence of one form or another. Such are the flames which test the strength of our commitment to each other. This is the case in this song; the two lovers have just come out of a serious disagreement "so bruised." From it, the girl has come up with a lot of new rules; adjustments she wants the two of them to make, which are bound to turn the tables and rearrange their whole life. Earlier on she had said she was comfortable with the man calling the shots; now, with the changes she's proposing, her actions beg the question: was she really honest with herself when she settled for the way things have been? Among them, she wants them to stay low key, especially on social media, yet she wasn't as loud as the guy was. She also doesn't want him to tell her what to do, but had earlier said she wanted him to guide her, given he's older and has a lot more experience with relationships. She is also not comfortable with them going for hang outs at the guy's brother's place, where she had been comfortable before. Beside all that, she requires much more attention, raising issues with the guy being online and not talking with her, while he's there trying to find a job, which is something she had been pushing to do. Now she's left him "fears for the trust" he had before. What are her intentions? Is she putting one leg out? Or is she just taking it slow?

This lyric is about a relationship that has been going bad for quite some time. There's been no affection at all no intimacy either spoken or physical. But we talked about this, and things seem to be getting better. Been out of the blue, comes this bullshit about her wanting to leave. Being a perceptive person, I can see through all the lies and know that there's somebody else. I call her on this, and it makes me angry. Basically I say go ahead and leave it's not going to kill me or crush me.

This lyric is about a girlfriend I was with and she was very bad at communicating her feelings, unlike me. I'm a very perceptive person, and we had been going out for years. I knew when she was keeping something from me and wouldn't tell me. She also had a very hard time showing affection and expressing love. I found this all very frustrating, and it got to the point where I knew she didn't love me anymore. This is an old lyric that I wrote some time ago when I was probably in my 30s about her. I just took it and rewrote it a little bit, but I always kept the title you don't love me no more. I hope you enjoy it.

Communication is one of the biggest challenges couples face. Most of the fatal issues that end up burying relationships are things that'd have been easily solved by a few minutes of honest conversation. That is the dilemma the persona in this song finds himself grappling with. In Verse 1 he alludes to the fact that the lover reacts quite negatively when they have arguments. He likes to pour his heart out, and says he doesn't want to measure his words. They had agreed to be brutally frank with each other should matters arise, yet when he uses that latitude to express himself, the other gets offended most times. In Verse 2 the same thought is followed up: she prefers to solve problems using parables and indirect references, forcing him to read between her lines to figure out what she's trying to say, and that often adds salt to the injury, when he finds himself unable to get her. The Chorus is a heavy confession: she puts him between a rock and a hard place, trying to choose between her fragile feelings and the naked truth. If it's all about protecting her from the hurt, then he loses his voice in situations where the truth would inevitably destroy her. The Bridge further intensifies the drama, buttressing the apparent irony in her actions. She's afraid to face the truth, and is conservative with it when it comes to her turn to speak.
