Dashboard Confessional - Get Me Right (Acoustic)

From the Deluxe Edition. I prefer the acoustic songs over the standard edition.

Removed the lyrics because they sucked. :)

Can someone more familiar with Dashboard tell me is he Christian..or is this song about wanting to believe but can't..or am I missing the meaning all together?

I'm not sure if he's Christian or something, but I do know he's spiritual, in some sense. But I don't believe this song is about god. I think all the poor Christians just have to make every song about their silly little faith.

@Tuuttuut2 I agree with you, not everything has to have some secret meaning, keep your faith to yourself.

[Tuuttuut2]

@murtagh451 Yay, at least someone agrees with me.

Hey I'm not trying to be a stickler or anything...but there's still a few lyrics mistakes that actually take away some meaning to the song...

Like I'm pretty sure it's "can repair" not can't.

After "I see you cut your hair" there's another line, which I think is "I know the saving type."

I know that instead of 'Clear', it's 'Clean' which is definitely different in meaning.

Finally, it's doubting blood not thinning blood.

Ugh I sounded like a jerk didn't I? Heh bugs me when lyrics are wrong

[learntoloveall77]

@Tuuttuut2 I believe you not only do DC a disservice but yourself as well.

Calling another persons heartfelt beliefs 'silly' instantly identifies you as an egotistical megalomanic. Who are you to denounce another persons belief?

@murtagh451 Actually, the problem with your statement is that he IS Christian. Or was. He used to have a Christian band. The fact of that doesn't somehow shove itself in your face. Whatever faith artists are, they're allowed to express that in their music, just like atheists are. And honestly, this song is pretty straight forward in what it means. It's not some secret meaning. Anyone who knows the Christian faith will get it easily, and that's fine. It's also fine if it means nothing to you.

No I'm not!

Beautiful song -- thanks for the upload. God bless.

@Tuuttuut2 At the same time somethings are about faith, does that make it a secret meaning or looking for something for more if indeed it is at face value about Faith?

[StevenAram]

God

@PrairieDon1021 If this helps at all, Chris Carrabba used to be part of a band called "Further seems forever" or something like that. My point being, is that was a Christian band, so what we have here could be the remnants of a Christian type of song. Interpret it how you want, Chris is notorious for having songs that can be interpreted in several different ways. Hope this answer helps. =]
