| | The Good Left Undone Lyrics Artist(Band):Rise Against
I found a flower at my feet, bending there in my direction. I wrapped a hand around its stem and pulled until the roots gave in, finding there what I've been missing. And I know.... So I tell myself, I tell myself, it's wrong. There's a point we pass from which we can't return. I felt the cold rain of the coming storm... All because of you, I haven't slept in so long. When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean; longing for the shore where I can lay my head down. I'll follow your voice; all you have to do is shout it out! Inside my hands these petals browned; dried up falling to the ground, but it was already too late now. I pushed my fingers through the earth, returned this flower to the dirt; so it could live, I walked away now. But I know... Not a day goes by when I don't feel this burn. There's a point we pass from which we can't return. I felt the cold rain of the coming storm... All because of you, I haven't slept in so long. When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean; longing for the shore where I can lay my head down. I'll follow your voice; all you have to do is shout it out! All because of you. All because of you. All because of you, I haven't slept in so long. When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean; longing for the shore where I can lay my head down. Inside these arms of yours. All because of you I believe in angels. Not the kind with wings, no, not the kind with halos; the kind that bring you home when home becomes a strange place. I'll follow your voice; all you have to do is shout it out! If you find some error in The Good Left Undone Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me? Thank You.

I have always loved this song and thought I knew the meaning to it. That was before I broke up with my girlfriend. We weren't getting along and arguing constantly and I felt like she was very unhappy with our relationship, so I broke up with her so she could be happy. There is not a day that goes by where I don't think about it though. I love her so much and miss her more than anything and still have very strong feelings for her. It makes me cry | Reviewer: Ale | 11/15/09 I made out with the boy I was in love with... It was like a flower that found me when i WAS ALL ALONE. But then his girlfriend found out about it and I tried to return the flower to the ground but It was too late and I felt the burn! And the storm came to me... a storm of insults and I felt alone again! :( My life and this damn song. | Reviewer: Michael | 9/29/09 Okay well unlike you guys I wasn't in a relationship with her...but I loved her...and I mean love as i the real thing the stuff dream are made of...not the crappy lie love the real deal but for her happiness she had to be with another and not me...so I mean I help that happen for her...even though the pain was nearly unbearable...but for her I did that and because of that this songs touches my heart and I guess in a sense relates to my life in this time and point. And thanks for making what the song meant clearer. i like it | Reviewer: shadow | 9/10/09 I fell in love with this song the moment I heard it. The melody and the lyrics go so well together and it creates this insane nostalgic feeling for the song that connected with me. the lines: All because of you I believe in angels. Not the kind with wings, no, not the kind with halos; the kind that bring you home when home becomes a strange place. I'll follow your voice; all you have to do is shout it out! remind me so much of me and my best friend. Because without him, I wouldn't be the person who i am today and I wouldn't strive to be better. I wouldn't even have hope in myself. Those lines almost made me cry so many times it's not even funny. great song | Reviewer: Garrett | 9/8/09 I really like this song. What it means to me is he has come across a pure, innocent, beautiful girl amongst a world of weeds, a world of people who have been heart broken, have broken hearts, lost their innocence in the world. she is perfect for him but he cant stand the idea of being a person who ever breaks her heart or turns her into just another "weed" of sorts. Thats my impression. who knows So perfect | Reviewer: Sally Wegner | 8/31/09 I have, for sometime, been writing a story about angels and the future of the world. Recently, I hit a massive writers block in a particularly important part of the story. And then I heard this song and, out of boredom, looked up the lyrics. "All because of you I believe in angels. Not the kind with wings, no, not the kind with halos; the kind that bring you home when home becomes a strange place. I'll follow your voice; all you have to do is shout it out!" This verse brought me to tears because it applies to my story in an absolutely amazing way. I could hardly believe it. If I didn't know better, I would have said I wrote the words myself. The next day, my writers block vanished. Amazing song. love | Reviewer: Gerardo Velasquez | 8/25/09 so this is my situation and i think it's exactly what the song says... i met a girl who had been dumped by her bf for another girl and i liked her so i started talking to her and trying to cheer her up because she was really bummed out about her ex. So she symbolizes the flower and her ex and all the bad things he put her through symbolizes the weeds. And well the part where it says that "i tell myself its wrong" is because im married. but i got in a relationship with this girl and i fell for her and i thought she fell for me too and i left my wife for her. but turns out she just used me as a rebound guy and then started acting like a complete bitch with me until she just stopped talking to me. her ex turned her into a bitter person and i wanted to help her but things became worse with her. and now i cant sleep thinking about her every night. but if she was to call me i would run to her in a minute. (karma?? who knows but i love this song) Meaning | Reviewer: Jeremy Arciniega | 8/24/09 This song means so much to me it is exactly how I feel. I dated this girl for a year and 6 months and she made me so happy but I felt like that I didn't return the favor. I felt like she just wasn't happy. So I "returned the flower to the dirt so it could live I walked away" and then now their is "Not a day goes by where I don't feel this burn." I miss her everyday of my life and I feel like I made the biggest mistake of my life. But I know that it was for the better. I wasn't ready to have it. I still feel for this girl and its been over a year. I really don't sleep at all, because I have this on my mind. I also feel like "Im drowning in the ocean longing for the shore" and I just can't get over it. She is with someone else who is just a complete asshole and this is not what I wanted. I was a complete asshole and now she is with another one. I've changed so much because I didn't like the person who I was because I couldn't make her happy the way I wanted. And now I feel like I am at the point where I learned enough and know what I want and who I am and who I want. But I don't think it will ever happen. All I want is " A place where I can lay my head down inside these arms of yours." I just feel like I blew it. Like I lost my chance and I will never get a second :[ means | Reviewer: jorge | 7/23/09 i think this means that wen he found her he realized it's wat he needed. she completed him in a way. the flower resembles a women and he pulled her out of the ground meaning they got together. however once they were together she turned brown, meaning maybe because they got together she started turning into something worse than what she was. in a way he kind of ruined her by getting with her. he put her back into the dirt and walked away meaning he broke up with her for her own good. she was better off without him guessing he only brought her down im sorry | Reviewer: Michael Brown | 7/21/09 i translated this for this girl im crazy for but cant have because of her parents......everytime i listen to this song it means something different...when i listen to it now it applies to the situation im in...heres my translation: "In fields where nothing grew but weeds, I found a flower at my feet, bending there in my direction. I wrapped a hand around its stem and pulled until the roots gave in, finding there what I've been missing. And I know...." this is saying that in all the world theres these girls that are really lame making them "weeds" but i kept looking and found this "flower at my feet" thats you the light in all my dark...it was "bending in my direction" you showed interest...i lived for the moment and "wrapped a hand around its stem and pulled until the roots gave in, finding there what i've been missing" i wanted you and you gave me reasons to why i couldnt but i kept "pulling" until "the roots gave in" which means i didnt give up until you finally agreed... "So I tell myself, I tell myself, it's wrong. There's a point we pass from which we can't return. I felt the cold rain of the coming storm..." this verse means that i know its not right :/ theres something wrong, i could tell from the beginning... "All because of you, I haven't slept in so long. When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean; longing for the shore where I can lay my head down. I'll follow your voice; all you have to do is shout it out!" the chorus here means that since i have you i cant sleep cuz im worried of what trouble you will get in...im struggling with my emotions to decide what is right "drowning in the ocean" and im "longing for the shore" meaning i want to find a way to make it work..."i'll follow your voice all you have to do is shout it out" means that im here for you all you have to do is let me know that your here too, that im not completely wrong... "Inside my hands these petals browned; dried up falling to the ground, but it was already too late now. I pushed my fingers through the earth, returned this flower to the dirt; so it could live, I walked away now. But I know..." this verse means that with you i tarnished your beauty :/ i got you in trouble that you tried to avoid, but by the time i realized this it was"already to late now."..."i pushed my fingers through the earth, returned this flower to the dirt, so it could live, i walked away now" im trying to make things right...at least for you, if i leave you alone you'll be better off without me :'[...but theres more.. "Not a day goes by when I don't feel this burn. There's a point we pass from which we can't return. I felt the cold rain of the coming storm..." this verse means that i regret that i took that chance and ended up hurting you, "theres a point we pass from which we cant return" means that the relationship could only be taken soo far, and i pushed it even further...now alone without you i prepare for whats to come "i felt the cold rain of the coming storm" meaning now that im alone my emotions are soon to overcome me... "All because of you, I haven't slept in so long. When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean; longing for the shore where I can lay my head down. I'll follow your voice; all you have to do is shout it out!" the chorus now means that "all because of you i havent slept in so long" as in i can't get you off my mind..."when i do i dream of drowning in the ocean" its like torture wanting you and knowing i cant, i see you in my dreams and my emotions surround me drowning me..."longing for the shore where i can lay my head down" im looking for a way out, a way to make it work "i'll follow your voice; all you have to do is shout it" means im willing to do anything for you just let me know what it is... "All because of you. All because of you. All because of you, I haven't slept in so long. When I do I dream of drowning in the ocean; longing for the shore where I can lay my head down. Inside these arms of yours." this time the repeating of "all because of you" is simply the realization that i will never have you...its like disbelief... this time in the chorus the last two lines are different "where i can lay my head down inside these arms of yours" meaning that i want to be with you and i'm willing to go through all the shit in the world "drowning in the ocean" to finally be with you... "All because of you I believe in angels. Not the kind with wings, no, not the kind with halos; the kind that bring you home when home becomes a strange place. I'll follow your voice; all you have to do is shout it out!" this means that because of you, there is hope..."angels" do exist..."not the kind with wings, no not the kind with halos, the kind that bring you home when home becomes a strange place" means that its not the cliche angels with wings and halos, its that one good person thats there for you through and through and will always be there, "i'll follow your voice, all you have to do is shout it!" i'll be there for you, i'll be your angel, but i wont make another move without you, i wont hurt you again "i'll follow your voice, all you have to do is shout it out" just let me kno and i'll come running <3 Review By Pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Next 10 Pages Review the song The Good Left Undone The area is only for review, if you want to submit the lyrics or the corrections of the lyrics, please click the link at the end of the lyrics.
