Metalingus Lyrics

I've been defeated and brought down
Dropped to my knees when hope ran out
The time has come to change my ways

On this day I see clearly everything has come to life
bitter place and a broken dream
And we'll leave it all, leave it all...

    I think that this song means when all hope is gone your problems will fall to your knees in grief but you must rise up and never give in to anything.

    It is about a person who has been defeated, has bumped into several problems that took his freedom away. Now, he/she has another opportunity to life. Just go forward and don't look back. Be alive again.

    like for example, me. I identify with this song, because I was in a relationship that took my dignity away and I was brought down by even my "companion" in life when I lost my job. Made me feel like trash. I was in a deep drepression. I got divorced and now I can confront life with a new attitude. A new perspective. With freedom.

    I believe this is a song about a dream about trying to feel a way that you never thought was possible again. A chance to feel alive, and you just can't feel alive..and hes one step away from feeling that way but a second before he could feel alive it all comes crashing down and brings him down to his knees, and the next day everything comes alive.

    I doubt that this has anything to do with religion and sinning, particularly because the lead singer is an agnostic

    i think its about a man who has lived a sinful life finding god and wanting to redeem himself.

    the chorus 'on this day i see clearly' shows that he has realised how he has behaved is wrong.

    'could you set me free; is repeated twice towards the end showing that he wants to be forgiven and find a better place


    i think a lot of alter bridge songs are similar to this, wayward one and white knuckles from the blackbird album espeacially
