Even though They're not a Christan band it doesn't mean that they can't sing about Christan stuff...
I for one think that this song is about the fall of man kind in Adams point of veiw...Now don't go calling me some crazy religious chick...I'm actually Atheist sooo >.>
catch me as i fall
obviously This is adam wishing For someone (god) to step in as he is about to give into temptation
say you're here and it's all over now
speaking to the atmosphere
Again here i believe that he is talking to god
no one's here and i fall into myself
this truth drives me into madness
According to a passage in Paradise lost ( an epic poem of the fall of satan and the banishment of adam and eve from the garden of eden) The Truth from the tree of knowledge gives adam and eve nightmares
i know i can stop the pain if i will it all away
don't turn away
(don't give in to the pain)
don't try to hide
(though they're screaming your name)
don't close your eyes
(god knows what lies behind them)
don't turn out the light
(never sleep, never die)
To me this whole chorus is about Adam fighting the guilt from taking a bite from the apple and acquiring the Knowledge of God. By they I just assuming demons the followers of satan taunting him for giving in so easily.
i'm frightened by what i see
but somehow i know that there's much more to come
well when God finds out that they've taken a bite of the apple they're going to be in deep Shyte sooo
immobilized by my fear
and soon to be blinded by tears
He's obviously afraid of the visions and being kicked out of eden
i can stop the pain if i will it all away
don't turn away
(don't give in to the pain)
don't try to hide
(though they're screaming your name)
don't close your eyes
(god knows what lies behind them)
don't turn out the light
(never sleep, never die)
Guilt again.
fallen angels at my feet
Fallen angels oh come on Satan was the original "fallen angel"
whispered voices at my ear
Satan and his army whispering
death before mine eyes
when Adam and eve were banished from the garden of eden they became mortal and thus death before there eyes
lying next to me, i fear
she beckons me , shall i give in
This is the only verse that speaks of Eve as she Beckons him to take the apple and he gives in
upon my end, shall i begin
forsaken all i've fallen for
Original sin anyone...according to that we are all forsaken until we've begin again...until we've been baptized
i rise to meet the end
he rises to speak to god..which will be his end (so he thinks)
don't turn away
(don't give in to the pain)
don't try to hide
(though they're screaming your name)
don't close your eyes
(god knows what lies behind them)
don't turn out the light
(never sleep, never die)
