Lyric discussion by Etreum 

In my opinon..... This song is about life on earth and how nothing is guaranteed or permanent. How its best not to get too involved due to this just being a path on the road to a greater/better place. i.e. heaven.

"But i know one day we'll see face to face" "A city that endures, where all is made new" "I won't rest until my lips touch the shore" "Of the land that I've been longing for as long as I've lived" "Where there'll be no pain or tears anymore"

Sounds like heaven to me. By the way i got to meet these guys at Warped Tour 2009 and they are freaking AMAZING! Favorite band for near 5 years now and i don't think it will ever change.

-BEGGARS IS FREAKING AMAZING! Definitely more mellow than previous albums but the lyricism flows so well with the music its ridonculous.

I agree, mostly because of the word sojourn (temporary stay)--which is often used to describe our (humans) life here on earth, in the Bible

"Definitely more mellow than previous albums but the lyricism flows so well with the music its ridonculous. "

agree about the lyricism, it's amazing.

however, the alchemy index was MUCH more mellow than this. this is almost going back to artist in the ambulance. as far as the guitar and drums.
