shes trying to convince everyone to stop being so sick and shes trying to convince herself at the same time. she sees all this around her and hates it, but realizes shes found the same thing inside herself. My first thought about this was that it was about the sickness INSIDE her. It def sounds like she hates her surroundings.īut i think there is another interpretation. She played this song and im 'yeah youre right this is so much scarier. and shes like 'girl screaming is so much freakier than guy screaming' and im like 'oh yeah? prove it.' I was at a friends house and we were talking about screaming music. The review I read basically said they rocked hard ('with the rock hardship of Audioslave and the rock melody of Incubus'). The girl's voice gives me chills in every song on this CD. It's actually refreshing to hear a band sing about something so compelling, besides drug addiction or heroine. I'm definitely not going to stop listening to Flyleaf now that I found out what they are all about. So I had no idea they were a Christian rock group until I came on to this site and analyzed the lyrics. I honestly had no idea who this band was before several hours ago. She felt if she overcame this, the experience would result in a stronger relationship and greater faith in God. Luckily, the writer had it right: she viewed the experience, no matter how devastated and violated she felt, as a test from God. She feels as if she is being tested, or maybe even betrayed, by the God she felt would shelter her from such torture. The line 'You broke into my faith' is an amazing way of the writer saying that her abuser came between her and something greater: her relationship with God. The line 'Let me live without this' indicates two things about the writer: one, her inferiority to her abuser, pleading for him to end the horror two, her longing for what she now views as a better and happier life. The author feels out of place and extremely lost. She beings to feel 'infected' because she is being abused in a place that is supposed to bring her security and comfort. The chorus indicates that the abuser was close to home, which made the writer feel even more violated. The emotions she lists afterwards are usual symptoms of rape victims, as well. This verse clearly indicates she had been abused - the word 'invasion' is a big clue. I was surprised to see only one or two comments on this song that mentioned anything to do with abuse or rape.
