I've got to be honest
I think you know
We're covered in lies and that's OK
There's somewhere beyond this I know
But I hope I can find the words to say
Never again no
No never again
Chorus
'Cause you're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
That you would know
You're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
I'd let you go
But I've been unable
To put you down
I'm still learning things I ought to know by now
It's under the table so
I need something more to show somehow
Never again no
No never again
Chorus
I've got to be honest
I think you know
We're covered in lies and that's OK
There's somewhere beyond this I know
But I hope I can find the words to say
Never again no
No never again
Chorus
I think you know
We're covered in lies and that's OK
There's somewhere beyond this I know
But I hope I can find the words to say
Never again no
No never again
Chorus
'Cause you're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
That you would know
You're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
I'd let you go
But I've been unable
To put you down
I'm still learning things I ought to know by now
It's under the table so
I need something more to show somehow
Never again no
No never again
Chorus
I've got to be honest
I think you know
We're covered in lies and that's OK
There's somewhere beyond this I know
But I hope I can find the words to say
Never again no
No never again
Chorus

"I've got to be honest,
I think you know,
We're covered in lies and that's OK.
There's somewhere beyond this I know,"
Since the Garden of Eden man has had a sinful nature, and through the salvation of Christ we're given the chance to be somewhere beyond the brokenness of this sinful world.
"But I hope I can find the words to say,
'Never again, no'
'No, never again'"
Matt finds it hard not to sin, and in return he hopes he can find the desire not to.
"'Cause you're a god,
And I am not,
And I just thought
That you would know/go"
Simple enough. Matt's talking to God, so he's basically affirming that he's not divine like God is. Not that God doesn't know, but Matt's saying it more for himself.
"But I've been unable
To put you down.
I'm still learning things I ought to know by now."
He's either referring to the Bible or his own spirituality. As he's growing in his faith he's learning more about God and how to live life to glorify Him.
"It's under the table so
I need something more to show somehow"
He's talking about hiding his faith by referring to it as being "under the table," or "off the record" if you prefer it.
God Bless!
i agree with the sarcastic tone about his attributing her to being a god, because that is how she wants to see herself. the only time he is honest is when he says that there could be "somewhere beyond this."
'Cause you're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
That you would know
You're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
I'd let you go...
If u ever watched the music video, the girl there is quite bossy and greedy or whatever... She wants what she wants and she gets it... So Im guessing the other guy is trying all he can but he is just not enough for her.. and so he lets go... in the end after the girl got what she wants... she looked at the mirror and realized what she just lost...
I guess you can connect the song "Everything you want now"... :D
I've got to be honest
I think you know
We're covered in lies and that's OK
(sometimes she acts like she doesn't hate me, and i try to hide my feelings, we're both lieing to each other about how we really feel, but we've managed to get along this year without any big conversations, and i think we're both fine with it)
There's somewhere beyond this I know
But I hope I can find the words to say
Never again no
No never again
(i feel that i could make things right again if i tried, but at the same time i want to tell her that i don't really want a major relationship with her because odds are we'd just break up and hurt each other again)
'Cause you're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
That you would know
(this describes how she thought of me last year, she considered me a god, but she thought i would know without her telling me, obviously i found out too late and the damage was already done)
You're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
I'd let you go
(this describes how i feel about her now, in my eyes she's still perfect, but i don't think anything good can come from a relationship between us and i realize that it would be best for the both of us if i could just let her go)
But I've been unable
To put you down
(i've tried letting her go before, but now that i realize i truly like her, it hurts just to think about having to live without her)
I'm still learning things I ought to know by now
(everytime i make a mistake in her eyes, i feel like i've learned something new that i should've known a long time ago)
It's under the table so
I need something more to show somehow
(she doesn't know that i like her now, so what i feel is "under the table", but if i ever want a relationship with her i'd have to show her that i've changed for the better)
Never again no
No never again
(this is like me telling myself that i won't make the same mistake twice with another girl, so that the next girl and i won't be hurt so bad if we break up)
