Lyrics:
My arms are tired and weary
These wounds are on full display
I’ve tried every door in the hallway
There’s just no where that I feel safe
I see the light but never find the surface
I don’t know if I can swim no more
White knuckles and wild horses
One day we’ll wash up on mercy’s shore
One day we’ll wash up on mercy’s shore
I’m lost in the waves that crush me
They bring discovery where darkness hides
Just over the ridge in front of you
Another mountain that you’ll have to climb
We’re a child in the car asleep
In the driveway at night
Our mother’s gonna slowly sneak
Our body inside
We can rest in the arms of trust
There’s no way that we can say
We’ve earned our way into light
All we have to do to is stay
I’ve been battling a broken heart
Everybody knows I’m torn apart
Since I was 8 years old and I thought that
God was a girl in my school
If we can wind up on a sandy beach
Breathing air that only death can reach
And singing songs that only heaven leaves
It’s okay with me
And God is wanting us to make believe
But knowing something is only a dream
Like the absolutes and the in-between
Are out of line, sometimes, intertwined, behind
A mind, in line, and fights that only fools are still trying to fight

[@maisquedicasusa3287]

I did not understand that part of the lyrics Can you explain it to me, please?

[@sanjanaattanayake4231]

@Mais que dicas USA Dude this is what I understand OK! The Lyricist might've try to give another meaning. So the lyrics "I’ve been battling a broken heart - Everybody knows I’m torn apart " talks about the pain of the lyricist after failing constantly. All energy inside of him is lost. Maybe the girl he's talking about is a dear friend that help him to stand up and fight again. Feel him good. So, he says "God was a girl in my school".

NEEDTOBREATHE (2020) - MERCY´S SHORE (Traducción) My arms are tired and weary Mis brazos están cansados y agotados These wounds are on full display Estas heridas están a plena vista I’ve tried every door in the hallway Lo he intentado con cada puerta de la sala There’s just no where that I feel safe Sencillamente no hay donde me sienta a salvo I see the light but never find the surface Veo la luz pero nunca hallo la superficie I don’t know if I can swim no more No sé si ya no puedo nadar White knuckles and wild horses Nudillos blancos y caballos salvajes One day we’ll wash up on mercy’s shore Un día nos arrastrará a la costa de la misericordia One day we’ll wash up on mercy’s shore Un día nos arrastrará a la costa de la misericordia I’m lost in the waves that crush me Estoy perdido en las olas que me aplastan They bring discovery where darkness hides Traen el descubrimiento donde se oculta la oscuridad Just over the ridge in front of you Justo sobre la cresta en frente de ti Another mountain that you’ll have to climb Otra montaña que tendrás que escalar We’re a child in the car asleep Somos un niño dormido en el coche In the driveway at night En el acceso de entrada por la noche Our mother’s gonna slowly sneak Nuestra madre va a escabullirse lentamente Our body inside Nuestro cuerpo dentro We can rest in the arms of trust Podemos descansar en los brazos de la confianza There’s no way that we can say No hay manera de que podemos decir que We’ve earned our way into light Nos hemos ganado nuestro camino hacia la luz All we have to do to is stay Todo lo que tenemos que hacer es quedarnos I’ve been battling a broken heart He estado luchando contra un corazón roto Everybody knows I’m torn apart Todo el mundo sabe que estoy destrozado Since I was 8 years old and I thought that Desde que tenía 8 años de edad y creía que God was a girl in my school Dios era una niña de mi colegio If we can wind up on a sandy beach Si podemos acabar en una playa arenosa Breathing air that only death can reach Respirando aire que sólo la muerte puede alcanzar And singing songs that only heaven leaves Y cantando canciones que sólo el Cielo deja It’s okay with me Está bien para mí And God is wanting us to make believe Y Dios quiere hacernos creer But knowing something is only a dream Pero sabiendo un poco es sólo un sueño Like the absolutes and the in-between Como los absolutos y lo intermedio Are out of line, sometimes, intertwined, behind Están fuera de lugar, algunas veces, entrelazados, detrás A mind, in line, and fights that only fools are still trying to fight Una mente, bajo control, y luchas que sólo los tontos están aún tratando de pelear

"Since I was 8 years old and I thought that God was a girl in my school" guys, I did not understand that part of the lyrics, can anyone explain it to me, please

[@heather4582]

I'm in the same boat, odd lyrics and notes in both 'bridges'. Still a fan, just scratching my head a little.

[@maisquedicasusa3287]

Heather, One thing that I love about NEEDTOBREATHE is that sometimes the lyrics are not obvious. Even that I struggled a little bit to understand

[@cadebennett8918]

My interpretation was that he gave a lot of attention to a girl, and in a way she took God’s place in his life as #1. Another thought I had was maybe at that age he didn’t really think about God a lot, so his “god” was girls. Maybe its something else, maybe its a combo of the two, but that’s what I got from it.

[@maisquedicasusa3287]

Cade Bennett okay! Thanks

[@tylergeikie8005]

For me, it is the appreciation/recognition for a child’s ability to see the good in everything and everyone. Their ability to trust, love, and have faith that the world is good and will not hurt them. Seeing God’s image/grace in others. But then losing that childhood innocence while growing up, only to yearn to find it again.

[@tcaDNAp]

I like how they only described God using female characters :)

[@heather4582]

I'm loving the melody, chorus and verses but that bridge is a little painful

[@NoNonsense77]

Good song till the last min tries to ruin it. No idea what that is. It is just random crap. Like they were afraid people would think the album was too focused on Christ so they had to put some dumb crap in there.

[@markalberici5137]

Sort of agree. Love song until last stanza. If it becomes a single nix the stanza. Can’t picture God as 8 year old girl in school. Way too mystical and Gnostic for me.
