I know that ISHFWILF is about looking for God in all the wrong places...but I was listening to it today, and there are a few questions I have about the lyrics. Can anyone enlighten me?
I have climbed highest mountain
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I'm assuming, "you" is God, right?
I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire
This burning desire"
Desire for what? Who is this girl he felt healing in?
I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone
I have held the hand of the devil....what exactly is he referring to? Sin? Sex? The girl from the above verse?
I believe in the kingdom come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
Well yes I'm still running
You broke the bonds and you
Loosed the chains
Carried the cross
Of my shame
Of my shame
You know I believed it
..."All the colours" I'm not sure I understand this line.
..."Yes, I'm still running" Running? Where? From what? To what?
In the last verse, is he speaking as if he's Jesus? (Carried the cross)...is he speaking as Jesus the entire song? What bonds? What chains?
"You know I believed it" Believed what?
Thanks.
