    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 mice or 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

      @@kingjon2274 I think that just means they wrote songs with implicit Christian themes; not explicit. Theyre not a gospel rock group; however, the lyrics "We were meant to live for so much more", "We want more than this world's got to offer", and "Everything inside screams for second life" are definitely Christian themes.
      Theyre just not a rock group that sings explicitly about Jesus; aka theyre not a gospel rock group.

    This came out when I was in the seventh grade. My best friend would walk down from his house and we would sit in my living room watching music videos on VH1 and MTV like we did every morning while we waited for the time to walk out to the bus stop. Good times and good memories that I wish I had cherished more in the moment because it really does go before you know it.

    I remember back in 2003-2004 they came to Hawaii, I went to their concert at about 11 years old. That day, front row I gave my life to Christ along with my best friend. This song means so much to me! 💯🙏🏼

    I was 14 when this was out in 2003. I still remember it. I had my very first job at dominos pizza. Big brother in Australia was massive. Those were happier times. Late 90s early 2000s were awesome ❤.

    We need to keep this music alive. Let’s teach our siblings and children and everyone we know.
