ATTENTION EVERYONE, I am an atheist, no joke. i love listening to death metal, hardcore, screamo, and alternative bands, EVEN CHRISTIAN bands.... And i have been in love with relient k and love their style... This song is the best clean song ive heard so far and if an atheist who doesnt care what others believe or what songs mean and thinks the lyrics are beautiful then.... that just means good things :)
Open one tab with this song, pause at 0:00, open another tab with the Youtube video "Rainymood", and listen to both simultaneously...... whip out a book and you've got a perfectly relaxing rainy-day feeling.
i wish that plp would give Christianity a try (really trying, not just going to Mass and reading the Bible and whatever. they have to pray with mind and heart.) i just dont get how they say "it didnt work out for me".how could someone not be able to be a Christian?
@PhamtasticAlena how can one man kill another? haha you dont know and i dont know, im sure God knows, but thats not always our business. And usually when they say it didnt work out, that often means they either werent trying, or they think that God let them down, so they let him down. Sorry if this reply sounds hostile or offensive ^_^, didnt mean to, but anyway have a nice day i guess :D
@PhamtasticAlena It didn't work out for me because I found too many hypocritical and non-loving facets of the religion. There are many things that don't work out for people, regardless of how good of a person they are, or how much they "tried" to be a Christian. To each their own.
@jennij9 Christianity is not about how good a person is. In fact, everyone has sinned and deserves the punishment for sin, which is death. BUT Jesus died to pay the penalty for our sins and rescue us from eternal death. All we have to do is believe in Him, trusting His death as the payment for our sins - and we will be saved! Jesus died for you because HE LOVES YOU! :) Christianity is not really about religion. It's a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Just know that He cares about you :)
Honestly people!?! We are the children of God, whether we're Christian, Jewish, Muslim, or haven't yet come to accept God as our Savior. Please quit your bickering. Yes, I realize that some people say stuff that is rude, but that does not give you any right to say something even more rude. Learn from Jesus to turn the other cheek. Be kind and respectful. We all came for the music, so as my mother would say "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all."
My dear Girl, despite your (to me) alien ideas of religion (there is no "yet" with me - I gave Christianity a chance and it simply didn't work) I have to say that I agree with your general message. There really isn't any reason for us to fight amongst ourself when we could just as well stand united by music that we all like.
Even if some "haven't yet come to accept" that their God isn't necessary everyone's saviour ;)
@FacelessCelebrity hahaha alright! :D i love their music too! its soo amazing! do you know the song Over thinking or i so hate consequences( the acoustic one) they are so good!
one day ill find out what this means.. and ill tell you ;)
listen to it, then I "heard" the lyrics, felt what they meant, and just broke down. That is when I truly appreciated what a beautiful song it is musically AND lyrically. It is now my favorite song. Amazing you can listen to this song 274 times and be so moved the 275th time. "When I go down, I lift my eyes to You. I won't look very far, cause You'll be there with open arms."
When I first heard this song, I was a teenager and only really listened to music for how it sounded. Now that I am 24 I'd like to think I'm much wiser. Lyrics in music mean so much to me. Whenever I listen to music, I don't just hear the lyrics, I listen to them and feel them. According to iTunes I've now listened to this song 278 times since it came out. Probably the 275th time is when I actually "heard" the lyrics. I was singing along with the song just like every other time I do when I liste
I've been struggling a lot lately with priorities. One of my best friends recently got me into Relient K; and after hearing this song, God spoke to me, and I fell on my knees in surrender. Now I'm starting to get my life back together again, and into God's Word more. God bless you Relient K!!!
@doodeitsnate You should be strong enough to solve your own problems, if you can't get your life back 2gether by yourself, then you won't ever be able to help other people with theirs.
@RocheLiauw That's just the thing -- I can't get my life back together by myself. I'm not strong enough....but the best part is that GOD IS!!!! He LOVINGLY lends you strength in the darkest of times if you just ask. This song helps to remind me of this incredible fact.
This album appeared in my life in 2006, close to the end of a 17 year battle with a severe polysubstance abuse problem, especially the meth, its the devils tool. As I attempted to quit time and time again I kept goin back. Then, Nov. 17th of 2007 A miracle happened, I quit! This album has helped me through some real rough times, and these guys are incredibly talented with their lyrics and the way they lay out song structure, God Bless Relient K, thank you for the music guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this song reminds me what i miss the most of my life...
my ex- girlfriend... i mis her so much... i hope i can contact her soon enough to tell her what she ment for me and how terrible sorry i'm bcuz i fuckt it up...
i wanted to ask her to marry me... and then i fuckt it up.. =(
@KatTheGinger obviously considering you just commented about it yourself. lol.buti know what you mean. just because they are a christian rock group doesnt mean that all there songs are about god. it just means they are putting it out there that if this kind of music isnt what you want then dont be wasting your time listening to good music.
"When I go down, I go down hard and I take everything I've learned and teach myself some disregard " When my older brother's beautiful best friend (a girl) died of a heart attack, he sang this song out a lot, and it just really makes me feel like this incident has really brought him down much more, but it also has allowed him to look at the good side of life and to keep on going.

I have a question. How come with all Christian bands, we have to be all " LOLOLOL THEIR SONGS ARE ABOUT GOD. ALL OF THEM. EVEN THE SILLY SONGS ABOUT PENNY-LOAFERS. YUP, ALL ABOUT THE LORD. " Seriously, guys. Just listen to the music and leave religion outta this.
@SHINRAbrat i know what u mean man...but where ever u have christian bands this will happen its inevitable im afraid someone will bring it up at some point :/
@animedork27 At the same time, Marylin Manson said God in one of his songs. Does that mean that its a christian song if it says God a few times? please clariffy so that you don't misslead people.
@FunnyNamed The band is a christian band, the members are christian, and if you know christians they don't use God's name in vein, so you can confer that he's saying "God I love you" in an affectionate way to God, not to someone else like "God, I love you" if that makes any sense.
It's a christian band, it's talking about God. You can interpret it to be what you want, but that doesen't change what it's meaning.
@FunnyNamed i was simply replying to your comment that it never says 'god' in the song, but if you want me to explain why the songs about god i will. lets look at the lyrics:
Because I love you
Oh God, I love you
And life is now worth living
If only because of you
And when they say that I'm dead and gone
It won't be further from the truth
well, like you said, marilyn manson say's god in his song, but matt thiessen says 'god i LOVE you' which is pretty straightforward, but it also
@SHINRAbrat talks about how when they say hes dead and gone they wont be further from the truth, i mean im not saying you cant interpret a song how you want but there is no denying that 1: relient k has christian meanings behind alot of their songs and 2: when matt thiessen wrote this song he was thinking about his relationship with god.
One of my favorites. What a painfully beautiful, realistic song that serves as a reminder that when I find myself astray, God will always be there with open and loving arms to pick me back up.
ehh i dont know i think this song just drags on and on but other than that this is by far the best christian cd ive ever heard! all the songs are so fast and catchy especially be my escape and i so hat consequences!
@simplyblink182 Relient K definitely arent Christians. they may say they are, and they may sing with some Christian lyrics. But theyre total assholes. my band opened for them once and theyre total douches, they tour with nonchristian bands and their no different than the rest of them haha
@Godsmackpwnsurass dude, P.O.D tours with lincoln park. Skillet has toured with breaking benjamin. Just because a christian band tours with a non-christian band does not make them not a christian band. they are a christian band. Oh and BTW God does not call the equiped, he equips the called.
@Godsmackpwnsurass Why cant a christian be an asshole? its kind of human nature. The sinful nature of man. Chrisitanity is a religion full of sinners. They are all going to fall short of gods expectations, an d they deserve death for it. but the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair.
@Godsmackpwnsurass Do they swear, drink, smoke, have sex, are any of them addicted to drugs, are they suicidal, do they follow another religion, are they atheists? I'm not saying every single non-Christian does those things, but... what's your definition of an a**hole?
I'm an atheist, and don't believe in any God but this is still a lovely song. I prefer to think of it as about life, not religion. It makes it easier for me to relate to and then more enjoyable. The song may be about God to the artist, but it doesn't have to be about that to me.
This song is one of my favourite songs from Relient K, everytime when I'm tired, it helps me sleep peacefully. I can use this song for sleeping, cheering up and it has alot of meanings to my life. Relient K helped me alot. Thanks :D
just thought you should know, this isnt they're 7th ablum, it's they're fourth, the ep's don't count, five score and seen years ago was they're fifth and forget and not slow down is they're seventh!!
people may relate to this song in many different ways.we would only know what RK wrote it for.. if we asked them.everything dosen't have to be about our savior i't could justt be about life in general think about it
I adore it when God has perfect timing. This song pretty much sums up all i have been feeling lately.
"Any control I thought I had just slips right through my hands
While my ever-present conscience shakes its head and reprimands me"
wonderful lyrics!
I have been doubting God's existence for a bit now, and this song just reminded me that no matter how much I try to resist Him and try to live a life without the Lord in my life, He still pulls me back and gives me purpose.
I'm only a kid in 6th grade but i praise jesus and always listen to uplifting songs my favorite verse is "Jesus said i am the way the truth and the life no one comes through the father except through me"! I love jesus and god whos with me!!
@JKchristian777 ATHEISTS #FTW NO SUCH THING AS GOD BUD AND NO REASON TO BELIEVE LET ALONE BELIEVE YOUR RELIGION IS THE RIGHT ONE, AND NO SOME "FEELING IN YOUR HEART ISNT PROOF HE EXISTS OR THAT YOUR RELIGION IS THE RIGHT ONE RELIGION = #FAIL NUFF SAID KIDDIES
@ipwnm00bs No one ever stated that the Christian religion was the right religion, and that feeling in our hearts is real. And hey who are YOU to say he DOESN'T exist?
So what you can say he doens't but if I say he does I'm wrong?
People like you are so hypocritical, you don't think deep into things and you don't get your facts straight before you spit out your words of disbelief
People like YOU are the reason this world has gone to hell. And the reason people don't believe
@LaPetiteArtiste actualy i was talking to a christian and wtf how dont i know he dosent exist? same reason i know santa clause dosent exist u dumb fuck go worship the easter bunny FAG
@ipwnm00bs I would just LOVE to hear how you think we were put here, why everything happens.
The big boom? Well where did the boom come from? Some friction had to happen.
OH AND we just happen to pop up? And become such an intelligent race (well most of us)
I really dislike people like you because you're such hypocrites, you can say that our God doesn't exist but when we say he does, oh you have so many theories of why he doens't, and those theories never have any structure behind them.
@LaPetiteArtiste dont have any structure behind them? science mathematics logic chemistry biology astronomy paleontology just to name a few versus magical powers? hmmmm ya.... your the idiot just because you cant explain something you go OH IKNOW! it must be god who needs logic and reason when i can just be a lazy primative fool and say god and magic did all this because i cant think for myself and dont have the brain to come up with anything else ya!!! oh and i guess einstein is dumb too?
I do have a mind of my own and believe me, I've thought of ALL the religions, thought each through, I've known several different people are different religions and you know what? I like mine, I love God and I like knowing he's there.
I've learned arguing will only fuel your flames, you're obviously helpless.
The only reason I reply to people like you it to try to help but I always get rude come backs and never get anything in return
@LaPetiteArtiste first of all im not 20 i am younger than that and wtf about the grammar? what do you care its a youtube comment not an high school essay and i never said i knew you and what does that have to do with the argument at hand? nothing. your just ignoring my points and pointing out silly things like age and grammar and just ignoring the facts and rambling on to the next disposition like i said before people like you have no logic nor reason your just an imbecile and a foolish sheep.
this song hurts to hear a lot of the time. it's so hopeful, but i tend to hear it at the times when i've given up hope. this song painfully reminds me that i can always fix my situation with help from God.
So good. . .my friends all learn songs (on the guitar) of metalica and slipknot and zed neplin or summin' and thats kwl but everyone does that. I always learn relient K ones and, unlike any other song they've made, this one is such fun to play. AMAZING to sing with and just really makes me happy after... Matt is a GENIUS at music. . .†
ATTENTION EVERYONE, I am an atheist, no joke. i love listening to death metal, hardcore, screamo, and alternative bands, EVEN CHRISTIAN bands.... And i have been in love with relient k and love their style... This song is the best clean song ive heard so far and if an atheist who doesnt care what others believe or what songs mean and thinks the lyrics are beautiful then.... that just means good things :)

@SHINRAbrat um not to get into this but they lyrics are 'oh god i love you' so yeah he does say god but i mean, interpret it however you want
animedork27 1 year ago
@animedork27 At the same time, Marylin Manson said God in one of his songs. Does that mean that its a christian song if it says God a few times? please clariffy so that you don't misslead people.
FunnyNamed 1 year ago
@FunnyNamed The band is a christian band, the members are christian, and if you know christians they don't use God's name in vein, so you can confer that he's saying "God I love you" in an affectionate way to God, not to someone else like "God, I love you" if that makes any sense.
It's a christian band, it's talking about God. You can interpret it to be what you want, but that doesen't change what it's meaning.

@Novaka101 wow. im so sorry. my sister had my laptop for a few weeks. she's not a relient k fan, so she messed up. im so sorry!

@FunnyNamed i was simply replying to your comment that it never says 'god' in the song, but if you want me to explain why the songs about god i will. lets look at the lyrics:
Because I love you
Oh God, I love you
And life is now worth living
If only because of you
And when they say that I'm dead and gone
It won't be further from the truth
well, like you said, marilyn manson say's god in his song, but matt thiessen says 'god i LOVE you' which is pretty straightforward, but it also

@SHINRAbrat talks about how when they say hes dead and gone they wont be further from the truth, i mean im not saying you cant interpret a song how you want but there is no denying that 1: relient k has christian meanings behind alot of their songs and 2: when matt thiessen wrote this song he was thinking about his relationship with god.

@simplyblink182 Relient K definitely arent Christians. they may say they are, and they may sing with some Christian lyrics. But theyre total assholes. my band opened for them once and theyre total douches, they tour with nonchristian bands and their no different than the rest of them haha

@Godsmackpwnsurass dude, P.O.D tours with lincoln park. Skillet has toured with breaking benjamin. Just because a christian band tours with a non-christian band does not make them not a christian band. they are a christian band. Oh and BTW God does not call the equiped, he equips the called.

@Godsmackpwnsurass Why cant a christian be an asshole? its kind of human nature. The sinful nature of man. Chrisitanity is a religion full of sinners. They are all going to fall short of gods expectations, an d they deserve death for it. but the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair.
Techfall 1 year ago
@Godsmackpwnsurass Do they swear, drink, smoke, have sex, are any of them addicted to drugs, are they suicidal, do they follow another religion, are they atheists? I'm not saying every single non-Christian does those things, but... what's your definition of an a**hole?
veellow 1 year ago
I'm an atheist, and don't believe in any God but this is still a lovely song. I prefer to think of it as about life, not religion. It makes it easier for me to relate to and then more enjoyable. The song may be about God to the artist, but it doesn't have to be about that to me.

I adore it when God has perfect timing. This song pretty much sums up all i have been feeling lately.
"Any control I thought I had just slips right through my hands
While my ever-present conscience shakes its head and reprimands me"
wonderful lyrics!
I have been doubting God's existence for a bit now, and this song just reminded me that no matter how much I try to resist Him and try to live a life without the Lord in my life, He still pulls me back and gives me purpose.

@JKchristian777 ATHEISTS #FTW NO SUCH THING AS GOD BUD AND NO REASON TO BELIEVE LET ALONE BELIEVE YOUR RELIGION IS THE RIGHT ONE, AND NO SOME "FEELING IN YOUR HEART ISNT PROOF HE EXISTS OR THAT YOUR RELIGION IS THE RIGHT ONE RELIGION = #FAIL NUFF SAID KIDDIES

@ipwnm00bs No one ever stated that the Christian religion was the right religion, and that feeling in our hearts is real. And hey who are YOU to say he DOESN'T exist?
So what you can say he doens't but if I say he does I'm wrong?
People like you are so hypocritical, you don't think deep into things and you don't get your facts straight before you spit out your words of disbelief
People like YOU are the reason this world has gone to hell. And the reason people don't believe
Lord have mercy.

I really dislike people like you because you're such hypocrites, you can say that our God doesn't exist but when we say he does, oh you have so many theories of why he doens't, and those theories never have any structure behind them.

@LaPetiteArtiste dont have any structure behind them? science mathematics logic chemistry biology astronomy paleontology just to name a few versus magical powers? hmmmm ya.... your the idiot just because you cant explain something you go OH IKNOW! it must be god who needs logic and reason when i can just be a lazy primative fool and say god and magic did all this because i cant think for myself and dont have the brain to come up with anything else ya!!! oh and i guess einstein is dumb too?

I've learned arguing will only fuel your flames, you're obviously helpless.
