I've gone for too long living like I'm not alive.
So I'm gonna start over tonight, beginning with you and I.
When this memory fades
I'm gonna make sure it's replaced
With chances taken, hope embraced
And have I told you...
I'm not going
Cause I've been waiting for a miracle
And I'm not leaving
I won't let you
Let you give up on a miracle
When it might save you
We've learned to run from anything uncomfortable
We've tied our pain below
And no one ever has to know
That inside we're broken
I tried to patch things up again
To count my tears and kill these fears
But have I told you? Have I?
I'm not going
Cause I've been waiting for a miracle
And I'm not leaving
I won't let you
Let you give up on a miracle
Cause it might save you
It's not faith if, if you use your eyes
Oh, I will get it right this time (this time)
Let's leave this all behind
Oh, I will get it right this time
It's not faith if you're using your eyes
Oh, I...
I've gone for too long living like I'm not alive
So I'm gonna start over tonight, beginning with you and I
Don't want to run from anything uncomfortable
I just want
No, I just need this pain to end right here
I'm not going
Cause I've been waiting for a miracle
And I'm not leaving
I won't let you
Let you give up on a miracle
Cause it might save you
Yeah, it might save you
Oh, it might save you
It's not faith if
If you use your eyes
If you use your eyes
If you use your eyes
I asked for love.
I asked for mercy.
I asked for patience.
but you're already all of these things.
I asked for love.
I asked for mercy.
I asked for patience.
but you're already all of these things.
I asked for love.
I asked for mercy.
I asked for patience.
but you're already all of these things.
oh you are...
oh you are...
I asked for love.
I asked for mercy.
I asked for patience.
but you're already all of these things.
I asked for love.
I asked for mercy.
I asked you for sunshine and then I begged you for the hard rain.
oh I begged you for the rain.
ooo...
I asked for love,
but you're already all of these things.
if I knew what I needed,
if I knew what was good for me,
I, I'd be down on my knees begging "please, please, please
let your light shine bright inside of me."
shine bright in me.
you are...
but you're already all of these things.
So I'm gonna start over tonight, beginning with you and I.
When this memory fades
I'm gonna make sure it's replaced
With chances taken, hope embraced
And have I told you...
I'm not going
Cause I've been waiting for a miracle
And I'm not leaving
I won't let you
Let you give up on a miracle
When it might save you
We've learned to run from anything uncomfortable
We've tied our pain below
And no one ever has to know

it kind of reminds me of a person who use to self harm
or in any kind of, pain, or suffering
this makes me think that because in the line that says...
We've learned to run from anything uncomfortable
We've tied our pain below
And no one ever has to know
That inside we're broken
I tried to patch things up again
To count my tears and kill these fears
But have I told you? Have I?
because in the line "weve tied our pain below" means
like you covered up with bracelets or something
another way is by in the line
"I tried to patch things up again"
means that i tryed to heal myself
but i couldnt do it, i need help
and the last meaning of this song is GOD
and to prove this is by in the lines of
I asked for love,
but you're already all of these things.
if I knew what I needed,
if I knew what was good for me,
I, I'd be down on my knees begging "please, please, please
let your light shine bright inside of me."
shine bright in me.
you are...
but you're already all of these things.
because in the lines that say
I, I'd be down on my knees begging "please, please, please
let your light shine bright inside of me."
shine bright in me.
you are...
but you're already all of these things.
means that, i need all of these things, but i dont know how to do it
but he already knows whats in your heart, he knows what your thinking, feeling, and are in need of.
and im pretty sure it says "I asked you for SHELTER" not sunshine.
I may be wrong, but it doesn't sound like sunshine at all
the outro is on that video from their gig at Islington on 07/09/09
I was there :D so amazing. like actually amazing. this outro topped the night off to the point where i almost died of joy.
