This song, to me, is a song about being decieved in your time of need, like the first verse was saying that hes been following this person all his life but hes slowly starting to realize that this person is full of deciet, like an anti-Christ type person. But hes to attached to let go because right now that person's all hes got. The second verse is after he finds out this person is full of lies and he gets pierced in the heart because of all the pretenders, but now, after hes on the verge of breaking down completely, he prays to find a true savior, somebody whocan actually take him out of this misery, so he promises not to give up till he does (Don't Surrender! Surrender!) And the chours I think is tieing the whole relationship with the "Evil Angel" together, asking it face-toface if its a complete lie. Anyway regardless of what Ben was thinking when he came up with this, all of his songs are true and deep and I think he will be known as one of the best songwriters of all time.

This song is amazing, like one of thee best songs ever written, if not instruementally, then defiantly lyrical wise. To me its him telling of his biggest desire, which is to make the sanctity and pureness of his dreams a reality. The beginning of the song, he wishes that he would never have to wake up from his dreams, he wants to stay in that world. Then he starts to tell of how he appriecaiates the evil in the world because they make his pure dreams special. But torwards the end of his song he says that he would gladly give up unearthly dreams for the world to change into his dreams. And the Chorus (especially at the end) gives the feeling that he knows what world possesses his desires: Heaven, so I think hes either asking God to take him up or asking Him to bring His Kingdom down here. Anyway great song.

Most people think this song talks about everything that you do is worthless in the end, but its not, well atleast to me its not. Ill break it down,. The first verse in this song tells of how life is to short to be wasted on useless things (drugs, meaningless s**, violence) because before you know it, your time will be up and what accomplishments can you say youve done then? The second verse is about how you may be able to leave behind the sins in your past for a while, but in the end they all come back around and you truely pay for them,. The chorus is what ties everything together, the meaning to it is that no matter what you achieve here on this earth, the single most important thing you had to of done is make the right choice in who you love, who you followed, thts were the line in the beginning ("It starts with love") comes from,. So I hope I helped anybody looking for a meaning to this song.

To me this songs says that some guy like a girl, but for some reason is trying to ignore and forget her, but he realizes he needs her because she, I quote "wont get out of my way" "wont quit screaming my name" and "wont stop touching my skin" he also realizes the mistakes hes made by ignoring her, and if he doesn't react soon, shes goinjg to be taken from his reach. I can say all this becuase I'm going through a similar situation now and hopefully this song can speak to me enough to get me to fix it.

This song means to stop living in your parents shadow and becoming your own person, growing up and to stop being what everyone wants you to be and to be what you want you to be, and I have to disagree I think all of lp's album's are good, you can't blame them for evolving their music into this generations liking, its not their fault you guys stayed back in the past while they moved on, if you can't keep up then music wont mean much to you.

This song is one of the very inspirational ones that talks about all your bad deeds, in this one I think it is about him repenting on his past sins, like the line "easy to find whats wrong, harder to find whats right" that means like its easy to give in to temptation but its hard to do what you know is right, also the chorus kinda gives me the feeling that he has died in "this world so wrong" and is now in like a crossroad: will he give into sin again or start doing the right thing? And he would choose the good path, but he has to fight his demons in order to go on that path that's were I think the lines "as we dance with the devil tonite, dont you dare look him in the eye, as we dance with the devil tonite" come from, he has to fix his mistakes to become a good person.
