Lyrics:
For your future's sake
I've got advice I'd advise you to take
Don't keep betting on it
"Well, it's gotta light me up sometime"
You lost your turn (But you've lost your turn)
You lost your turn (But you've lost your turn)
"All I wanted to be was one of your children
And all I wanted to be was one of yours"
See how clean the water is where you are
Wash off your handcuffs
And know the hidden messages you hear
They aren't real
You tricked your mind to feel (You tricked your mind to feel)
You tricked your mind to feel (You tricked your mind to feel)
You tricked your mind
"All I wanted to be was one of your children
And all I wanted to be was one of yours"
Are we even now, are we even now?
We are unrelated, we are unrelated
Are we even now, are we even now?
We are unrelated, we are unrelated
If blood is thicker than water
Then you'll drown quicker than we intended
If blood is thicker than water
And you'll know where you can find us in the end
So we can begin again
So we can begin
So we can begin again
So we can begin
"All I wanted to be was one of your children
And all I wanted to be was one of yours"

This album got me through high school. In my 30s I feel such a deep connection to it still. Brings tears to my eyes. ❤

Not much hits harder than "All I wanted to be was one of your children" for the child that was never enough

On Letting Go is a captivating song by the alternative rock band Circa Survive that delves deep into the theme of self-discovery and the process of letting go. With its haunting melodies and emotionally charged lyrics, this track resonates with listeners on a profound level. The song’s meaning can be interpreted differently by individual listeners, as music often connects with people in personal ways. However, the overall message of On Letting Go revolves around the idea of embracing change and releasing attachments that hold us back from personal growth. It explores the struggle of breaking free from the past, whether it be toxic relationships, self-doubt, or societal expectations. The lyrics evoke a sense of vulnerability and contemplation, urging listeners to confront their inner demons and find the strength to move forward. The song brings to light the importance of acknowledging and accepting the pain of letting go, emphasizing that it is an essential part of the journey towards self-discovery and liberation.

@Morgan Smith except the fact that art is intended to be interpreted however by the consumer. While that may be the intended purpose, I can interpret it differently. This ideology that I can’t is laughable

The guy I like has been using a black avatar, and yesterday I saw that he had this song's album cover as his avatar. I found the song through Google Images, I searched many interpretations of the song and most people said the song means a child longing for his father's love... Can somebody tell me what this song really means?

[@Childofbhaal]

Moving away from Religion. All I wanted to be was one of your children is speaking about being a child of God and just wanting to be a good soul to please God. Anthony the singer had spoken about being raised Catholic and leaving the church and moving away from God

Is this about "family" or "one of your children" as in a child of christ. My first impression was it was about a fall from faith

[@Childofbhaal]

@@MANTISxBI think it’s definitely about religion. Anthony had talked about being raised Catholic and not believing in God anymore
