| | 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, I pulled until the roots gave in, Finding there what I'd been missing, But 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, fallen 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 that 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.

Review about The Good Left Undone awesome | Reviewer: marc | 2/7/10 wow, im reading through all these comments and im pretty suprised cause i didnt read one that interprets the song as i do. I guess this song can really relate with whatever you are going through. I see this song as being about doubting your faith in God. Like you want to believe but you find it really hard. "I'll follow your voice, all you have to do is shout it out". which is like saying give me a sign. Drowning in the ocean is like the ultimant feeling of aloneness which can relate to him being alone in the world. I also thought it was "not a day goes by when i dont feel its wrong", not the way its posted on here. I bought this cd the day it came out and im pretty sure i read it cause i read all the lyrics. then my cd broke and i bought another cd and some of the lyrics changed i think. but ya not a day goes by when he doesnt feel its wrong to doubt his faith, "theres a point we pass from which we cant return", once you start doubting its really hard to believe again. And then in the end he doesnt believe in real angels, or heaven so to speak, but pictures heaven just as somewhere he can call home. let me know what you think, and please dont get mad over a stupid interpretation lol this song... | Reviewer: stephen | 12/16/09 i unfortunately nvr got to get a full fledged relationship with her...but one thngs for sure and thats tht im in love with her yet ill nvr have her. i got a chance to see what i miss out on everyday, this past summer...we finally got close and i we both developed deep feelings for eachother but yet in the end bc of certain circumstances we had to say our goodbyes...everynite i pretty much do drown in the ocean, the ocean of sorrow, tears, and memories. i dream about her, can still hear her, even smell her in my pillows...no matter what, i can nvr find myself to wash my pillows when i wash my sheets bc i want that lil physical memory even though it hurts. she helped me see how great a person i actually was and she did sumthng no doctor or medicine could ever do for me and when we had to say goodbye everythng went back to like it was before...now ive been keepin my distance and shes married at 19 :/ and gettin ready to move to the otherside of the country. amazing song though, i love it AMAZING | Reviewer: Taylor | 12/6/09 This song relates to my life so much... I loveee rise against even more because of this song! The lyrics are so powerfull and so true... I can't get over how much this song means to me, and not alot of songs can do that nowadays. Lyrics | Reviewer: itZ OveR | 12/2/09 The lyrics of this song relate so much to my past, this song means so much to me; as do many others from Rise Against, but just this one...The lyrics are a new kind of deep; 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 lyrics mean so much to me, Rise Against have changed my life with their lyrics, I love them. <3 Yeah, exactly | Reviewer: Annabelle | 12/1/09 I'm in love and I can't have him yet. I have to wait till im16 and watch him go through other girlfriends while I'm alone. I told him I loved him last summer and he loved me back, but I set him free so he could live without the burden, which was me. And hopefully we'll be together later on...after these long days and nights love this song!!! | Reviewer: emely | 11/26/09 This song is amazing..my stroy??? Hm where to begin? Well this song reminds me of my ex. We use to doodle to eachother(instead of 'love' notes) between classes back then in 9th grade n looking back at it the other day I saw this doodle drawing that he drew, resembling him 'drowning in the ocean'. N he quoted the chorus to this song.. "All because of you I haven't slept in so long when I do I dream of drowning in the ocean". Back then I just started to listen to rock n well he was the one who got me into it. But the point is I never really payed mind to it until I was listening to this song.. N now reading these 'cybers' feedbacks on the meaning of the song it came clear to me that in our relationship he saw me as the girl that was totaly perfect for him..'The flower'in this songs terms. I remember having such a bumpy relationship with him n now I understand y he put the quote of drowning in the ocean.. I miss him so much n now that's its been a year n 7 months since we've broken up there's always something to remind me of him.. In the end I got what I always wanted n it was space.. But a lil too much.. "I push my fingers through the earth, returned the flower into the dirt,so it could live, I walk away now":( n that's exactly wat he did.. meaning | Reviewer: JoEast | 11/25/09 i love rise against for this song...first i didn't really know what all this means (i'm german) but as I looked at the lyrivs it really opened my eyes because this song always reminds me of who I am and when think about my life and think about what a nobody I am and that I would never get a girlfriend,it always brings me back to reality like "damn somewhere out there, there's a girl waiting for you. you just have to find her". Rise Against, you changed my life... Meh | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/17/09 Wow, this song is amazing. 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.
