I know this really isn't you
I know your heart is somewhere else
And I'll do anything I can
to help you break out of the spell
I see you following your crowd
I know you're trying to fit in
But if you're gonna find yourself...
You gotta start from deep, deep within

Hold on to what you believe...

[Chorus]
I will always be your friend
I know who you are inside
I am with you 'till the end
Never far behind
I am standing in the distance
You can take your time
And I will be here waiting
Never far behind
Yeah!
Never far behind

I am sending you a message
Don't ever think that it's too late
When you care about someone
There is always room for change
You're allowed to make mistakes
It's a part of every life
I don't see you any different
The truth is shining in your eyes

Hold on to what you believe...

[Chorus]
I will always be your friend
I know who you are inside
I am with you 'till the end
Never far behind
I am standing in the distance
You can take your time
And I will be here waiting
Never far behind
Yeah!
Never far behind

You can take your time
And I know
With all my heart

[Chorus]
I will always be your friend
I know who you are inside
I am with you 'till the end
Never far behind
I am standing in the distance
You can take your time
And I will be here waiting
Waiting by my side
God
Is never far behind

I am sending you a message...

    General Comment:This is a song about being there for a friend who is going through a tough time...Im not trying to be disrespectful and stuff, but i dont think this is about god or jesus. I understand that theyre christian, but that doesnt mean that there songs have to be about it all the time. But i guess everyone is intitled to their own opinion...

    General Comment:i think this song is about cliques and how a best friend is seeing her friend wanting to fit into the popular crowd and when she does she wants to get out of it but she cant

    General Comment:i think it could be taken however you want to take it. it could be a breakup, a friend going through a tough time, or god. i'm sure they wanted it to be about god.

    I think its about a girl and shes telling her friend
    you shouldint have to change and do bad things to be cool just be yourself beacuse she knows who her friend really is inside and what shes doing isint really what she wants to do and that no matter what happenes she will always be there for her friend

    General Comment:i luv the song, and lyk evry1 else says it's about god, and how he'll be right there behind, to help, and how this person is being someone they're not, and God be there to catch the person and help to discover who they are, with helping him to find themself

    General Comment:this is one of my favourite songs i think it means that you shouldn't change for people just to try and fit in and the verse
    'I am sending you a message
    Don't ever think that it's too late
    When you care about someone
    There is always room for change
    You're allowed to make mistakes
    It's a part of every life
    I don't see you any different
    The truth is shining in your eyes'
    this is saying the only reason you should ever change is because you want to not because you want to be friends with other ppl and that just because you have changed your tru friends can still see the old you is still in there

    General Comment:I feel this is a song about a person seeing a friend who is struggling through tought times ...

    "I know this really isn't you
    I know your heart is somewhere else
    And I'll do anything I can
    to help you break out of the spell
    I see you following your crowd
    I know you're trying to fit in"

    ...she is trying to tell her friend that even though you are going through changes i'll be there for you. And she prays that everything is okay and god will be there sending her her message.

    =) i love this song
