If you could only let your guard down // If you could learn to trust me somehow // I swear that I won’t let you go
Favorite song off of this album. This song is a little more reminiscent of their ballads on their previous albums like Vice Verses and Hello Hurricane I love Jon’s songwriting so much. This is definitely a highlight from Switchfoot. His voice sounds absolutely beautiful in this song as well.
You’re making it, everyday you’re alive // Is this the world you want?
With all that is going on around the world and in the news, this is my song of prayer. This song talks about how we are more than our religions and alignments, because how we act and what we do and say are our religions. Everything you do is your religion. The addition of the children’s choir with Jon’s powerful lyrics and voice really makes the emotions of this song stand out even more.
I’m picking up the pieces // I’m trying out adhesives // I’m trying to fix a place that feels broken
Love this song so much by Switchfoot. Especially in today’s political climate, I feel like this song is needed more so than ever. This version, the acoustic one with only Jon Foreman, has such a powerful impact, and it showcases the words perfectly. We make the world how it is, so every day is a chance to change the world. Everything we do has an impact, and it is in a way our religion.
The fact is fiction // Suspicion is the new religion // America listens as the story is told // With the eye on the truth as the story unfolds // But the ratings determine which story was sold // We’re selling the news
Every word of this Switchfoot song rings true. In the current climate of America, dominated by “fake news” and “alternative facts”, this song is more accurate than ever. Jon Foreman captures the spirit of the powers that be spinning the truth to benefit them, something we’re seeing a lot of right now. One great thing about this song is that it spans many genres, with rap-like verses mixing into their signature alt rock sound. With his amazing lyrics and great voice, this song is a must hear.
