Song lyrics
Fumbling his confidence 
And wondering why the world has passed him by 
Hoping that he’s bent for more than arguments 
And failed attempts to fly, fly 

We were meant to live for so much more 
Have we lost ourselves? 
Somewhere we live inside 
Somewhere we live inside 
We were meant to live for so much more 
Have we lost ourselves? 
Somewhere we live inside 

Dreaming about Providence
And whether nicer men have second tries 
Maybe we’ve been livin with our eyes half open 
Maybe we’re bent and broken, broken 

We were meant to live for so much more 
Have we lost ourselves? 
Somewhere we live inside 
Somewhere we live inside 
We were meant to live for so much more 
Have we lost ourselves? 
Somewhere we live inside 

We want more than this world’s got to offer 
We want more than this world’s got to offer 
We want more than the wars of our fathers 
And everything inside screams for second life yeah

We were meant to live for so much more 
Have we lost ourselves? 
We were meant to live for so much more 
Have we lost ourselves? 
We were meant to live for so much more 
Have we lost ourselves? 
We were meant to live 
We were meant to live

I posted earlier but I wanna post again... this is probably the only CLEANEST discussions that I've been.... Most of the discussions is how they think some band is a real poser and blah blah blah... I'm really glad noone has said something BAD about Switchfoot... They played really good at Pepsi Smash!

So I think this song is incredible. The meaning behind it is fantastic. I'm a big fan of Switchfoot now, however, I'm also an atheist. I think their message goes far beyond mere god worship (not that there's anything wrong with that). I applaud them for broadening their message to include the positive aspects religion has to offer to those who are themselves not religious.

I love this song!!!!!! it has a strong beat and good christian themes and morals. I like that they are trying to reach out and show God's love to ppl drowning in secular music.
