You'd better learn
That this will not blow over and over
High above they're taking over you
And you should know
I will not let you go, let you go
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
There's something greater there
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
Iit's not gonna change you
We walk along but never turn to see what we have done
(what we have done)
We chose our move so carefully for oyu
(carefully for you)
I will not let you go, let you go
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
There's something greater there
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
It's not gonna change you
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
It's not gonna change you
I believe in nothing
Why believe in nothing at all
I believe in nothing
Why believe in nothing at all
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
There's something greater there
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
It's not gonna change you
What is my body worth?
What is my body worth?
That this will not blow over and over
High above they're taking over you
And you should know
I will not let you go, let you go
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
There's something greater there
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
Iit's not gonna change you
We walk along but never turn to see what we have done
(what we have done)
We chose our move so carefully for oyu
(carefully for you)
I will not let you go, let you go
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
There's something greater there
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
It's not gonna change you
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
It's not gonna change you
I believe in nothing
Why believe in nothing at all
I believe in nothing
Why believe in nothing at all
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
There's something greater there
What is my body worth?
Was there a price set before?
It's not gonna change you
What is my body worth?
What is my body worth?

So how I personally interpret it is that the girl is treating him like crap, (He is asking her what his "body is worth") and she doesn't seem to see what she's doing to him ("We walk along but never turn to see what we have done"). But (in my case at least), he still loves her and doesn't want to leave her ("I will not let you go, let you go"). Another issue is that she keeps doing what shes doing over and over again ("Its not gonna change you") and it's as if there was a "price set before", showing that it's almost as if there's only a maximum amount of respect that she is treating him with.
Plus, he is trying hard to do everything to make the relationship work ("We've chose our steps carefully for you"), also showing that he was exclusively making the relationship work for her.
With the title (It's Far Better To Learn), I'm taking a long jump here, but I feel like it's saying how its better to learn from your mistakes, than for them to go unnoticed. Of course though, that's more of an obvious statement... Possibly the title is just emphasizing it?
Anyways, I understand that this can be religious, but I saw a comment saying how other band members try to make it be relatable to other situations.
Lucky for me though, my girlfriend and I aren't in as much shit as what I interpreted the song to be x]
Another reason why I think she is treating him crap constantly is because in the song, he says "You'd better learn That this will not blow over and over". Showing that she has done it numerous times before.
And about the title, I think its connected to the lyrics "Youd better learn", saying in the end there are going to be consenquences (such as HE breaking up with SHE), but it's better to learn and be hurt, then to not hurt and not learn at all.
It's obviously about religion. If you understand true Christianity, you can understand where he is coming from.
If someone was going through a lot of questions about drugs in their life or someone they cared for, it could easily be taken that way. Or if someone was starting to date casually after a breakup, the sexual problems that come up could come through to that listener. The God idea makes sense as well. This song is good just for this ability to be so meaningful to so many different people without being generic.
w/e its catchy as hell.
And he is!! hehe
And he is!! hehe
obviously ..
to someone cove knows that's atheist, or when he lost "believed in nothing" .. something like that
and the title is saying it's far better to learn about god, etc.
for yourself .. instead of being told what you should believe from other people
"you better learn that this will not blow over" -- rape never goes away.
"what is my body worth, was there a price set before, its not going to change you"
She got raped, she thinks thats all shes worth, she wonders "was there a price set before" - is she worth anything anymore? "its not going to change you" - whoever did this to her, its not going to "change" him.
"and you should know, i will not let you go, let you go" ---this part of her life will always be with her, she'll never let it go, shell never forget.
"we walk along but never see what we have done" the said rapist goes on with life, he doesn't see how much damage hes caused.
"i believe in nothing, why believe in nothing at all" this is the girl saying "i believe in nothing" and someone responding asking her WHY? why dont you believe in anything.
