I used to listen to this song daily, many years ago. Back then, I was lost like this depiction, tossed in existential dread and godless moral decay. Jesus came and scooped me up from a pile of ashes and tears. Now, I’m the tall, strong Christian merely alluded to in his lyrics. If God saved me, He can save anyone.

This song reminds me of after I broke up with my girlfriend of 5 years. I wasn't into drugs but I was under alot of emotional stress from the military and after i found out she had cheated on me. I started smoking for the first time and I remember feeling like I was developing schizophrenia seeing crazy things that weren't there. With the help of some really good friends and the Gods help I was able to see the light at the tunnel. There is always hope

The lyric in the chorus “ my cigarette burns my finger cause I forgot that I lit it” was a reality for me well kind of, I overdosed when I was 13 and was repeatedly hallucinating that I was burning myself with a cigarette that I forgot about but it wasn’t even there. I kept thinking I was on fire and eventually my mother found me took me to the hospital and they pumped my stomach and I had a security guard at the end of my bed because I kept ripping off the ECG wires and trying to get to the rack of doctor pants I wanted so much over and over and over again. This song is epic and I love it. It reminds me of a time when I was beginning to escape from the real in any way possible , a life I continually try to not go back to. Wishing for Much love an success for you💕

Definitely, I hear ya. The first time I heard those lyrics, it made me instantly think of my younger years of insane drug usage & the many times I burnt myself, from being so fucked up & completely oblivious to the cigarette burning down to nothing bw my fingers. The lyrics made me strongly relate, but at the same time, they made me shudder, reliving those awful years but ultimately thankful I made it out alive & I'm still kicking.

I was in the talking phase with a girl, we were planning on going on a date after I got my liscence. I was a few weeks away from getting it. Her dad is pretty die hard Chrisitian and wouldent like me so we were gonna go out behind his back. After a while she seemed to get more distant, and I was okay if she didint feel the same anymore, so one night we decided to talk, and we both came forward saying how we felt things felt off and that maybe it wasant the best that we went out, because I wasant religious and I was a couple hours away. But we still wanted to be freinds cause we got along really well. Two weeks later she was texting me and the group chat we were in that she was dating this guy who was six foot, ripped, and "Christian". She was making out in the backseat of his car with him, behind her dads back. He was also the guy she told me not worry about, and asked me if it was okay if she talked to him while we were talking. So hearing that lyric really did rip through lol I really do miss the facetimes until four am with her talking about all the things we wanted to do for date ideas together
