I can understand to somehow what's the meaning of this song but not
completely. I would appreciate that if somebody could explain its
meaning. Here's the video clip of the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEvE_04x-xI
The lyrics:
Give me release
Witness me
I am outside
Give me peace
--> What does this mean so far? does it mean the person is now
released and is seeking for peace? <--
Heaven holds a sense of wonder
And I wanted to believe that I'd get caught up when the rage in me
subsides
--> Does it mean that the subject wants to believe in heaven and she
fears sometime she might lose her faith in it and she wants to believe
there's something or someone that will break her fall? <--
Passion choke the flower
'Til she cries no more
Possessing all the beauty
Hungry still for more
--> I know the word-by-word meaning of this part but I don't get the
message. <--
Heaven holds a sense of wonder
And I wanted to believe
that I'd get caught up when the rage in me subsides
In this white wave I am sinking in this silence
In this white wave in this silence I believe
--> Please explain! Which "white wave"? What does she mean by "In this
white wave I am sinking in this silence"? --<
I can't help this longing
Comfort me
I can't hold it all in
If you won't let me
--> Please explain. <--
Heaven holds a sense of wonder
And I wanted to believe
that I'd get caught up when the rage in me subsides
In this white wave
I am sinking
In this silence
In this white wave
In this silence I believe
I have seen you in this white wave you are silent
You are breathing in this white wave
I am free
--> Please explain. <--
Thanks in advance,
Behi

"Give me release" means "release me".
I think we need to look further on in the lyrics to see what the singer
wants to be released from.
>Heaven holds a sense of wonder
>And I wanted to believe that I'd get caught up when the rage in me

There it is. The singer has rage inside her. She is "possessed" by the
rage. It controls her. She wants to be released from the rage and to
achieve peace.
>--> Does it mean that the subject wants to believe in heaven and she
>fears sometime she might lose her faith in it and she wants to believe
>there's something or someone that will break her fall? <--
She wanted to believe that that her emotions will be captured (caught
up) by the "sense of wonder of Heaven".

Thanks but I still don't get it. Plus "when the rage in me subsides"
can also mean "when her intense desires turn into depression" but I am
not sure if it is the right meaning in this context. Also what do you
think is the meaning/message of the whole song? Plus, (as posted in a
comment on the YouTube page) it seems that the man in the video is
blind and the girl is trying to guide him to somewhere.
It is a strange feeling when the tune, the vocals, and the video clip
are awesome but I can't find out the true meaning of the song.
Sometimes after finding out the true meaning of the lyrics and it
turns out that it is crappy I wish I had never know the its meaning!
