I cant count how many times this song has brought me and countless others to tears. It so beautiful, keep those you truly love close to you because you might not always get a second chance. Ive learned that...
I miss my best friend. He has depression, and it's changed him - angry at the world and blaming himself. I thought I was helping. It turns out he was in love with me, but I just didn't feel the same. He left me a message saying he loves me and he wants me to be happy, and thanking me. I found out earlier tonight that he'd been sectioned because he'd tried to kill himself. His depression has changed him into a person I barely recognise. Please get better Jon, because I miss you; my best friend.<3
this song reminds me of the friends that have come and left during our life and we havent seen ever scince, those who we never forget and only the memories remain of that time we meet :(
@adelinesweetheart I hope that you know this goodbye is just way of saying i will miss you till we meet agian. Even if you didnt say gooodbye I hope you know you guys will meet agian:)
Flyleaf is more than a band to me. It's a salvation. Lacey, Jared, Sameer, James and Pat are such beautiful people and the music they create is stunning. Listening to this, I can feel the hairs on the back on my neck stand up. This may be the most beautiful music I have ever heard in my life. I'm so thankful that I found them. <3
For some reason I get the feeling it's about her ex closest friend and first husband. I don't know his name though. I feel bad mentioning it like it's bad or something but yeah... that's the feeling I get. I believe that this is one song that's about a friend rather than God :) not all love filled songs have to be directed towards the big G. She's still a person with friends and relationships.
@13hockeyswim13 believe me, sameer wrote this whole song. i've even wondered if jared even recorded on this track. yes, they all write parts to songs, but usually sameer writes both parts for his songs, because he plays lead guitar and jared plays rhythm. when sameer writes a song, he usually writes the rhythm part with lyrics, then gives the part to jared and the lyrics to lacey and does his own thing with his lead parts. so i thought, believe in dreams, set apart this dream, are some examples.
@mooncowslow Okay well it seems to me you know all the guitar things about Flyleaf lol.
But how can you tell Sameer wrote all the lyrics? And so if he wrote the whole song he also write the bass part and the drum parts??? I am confused hah!
@13hockeyswim13 i know from my 5ish years of being a Flyleaf fan Sameer wrote this song. he didnt write the bass part or drums..... and yes. i know all the guitar things about flyleaf. every single song, pretty much every part, i know who wrote what for almost every flyleaf song, and how things were written. the three writers have their own styles. Sameer usually picks an object for his songs, then writes about how friendship or dreams effects that object.
@helxig I thought that too, but i'm still not sure. I guess the important thing is that whoever listens to it can relate to it. I love Lacey and the guys so much!! :D
@helxig Nope. Because in the song she says " I wait for your answer But I already know, Your hand was always mine" Her "letters" are prayers...and when she said "Your hand is always mine" that means God already knew what she was praying about before she even "wrote the letter" or basically prayed about it. And she misses that deep connection she had with God, when she "fell in love" with Him. Christianity is a relationship, not a religion :)
@PeaChick418 Or she's just talking about someone she loves. Why does it have to be based off of religion? The song can be interpreted in different ways.
@abusivebiscuit I could reply with "The song can mean whatever you want it to mean" But I recently learned in Bible class at school that statement is false. It will always mean what the artist ment it to mean. So who is Lacey referring to? idk. I'm basing it off the fact that Flyleaf says "our music is fueled by God" that's all. Not trying to insult or get anyone's case lol .
This reminds me of me and my closest friend, Gordon. We've known one another for 10 years plus than we started to get really close last June. During September 20th we got together and a month plus after that, he asked for a break up. I was so devastated as it wasnt the relationship that i longed for but our tight friendship :( Every night i waited for his call but he never called ever since. I want our friendship back... Sighs :(
@LynnieLynElle not just that, 10 plus year friendship, that's very special, idk maybe you should have seen him more as a brother since you guys had been friends for so long
I wish the song was longer
