A Teenager in Love
A Teenager's Struggle: Love, Faith, and Despair
Lyrics
Now you go unseen, perfect you'll stay hidden
The person addressed is not easily noticed or recognized, and it's desirable for them to remain that way.
And I can dream of things you'll never see
The speaker can imagine experiences and sights that the addressed person will never encounter.
All I please, if you are braver than the rest,
If the addressed person is braver than others, there's hardly anything left that could challenge or contest their superiority.
There's little left that could dispute your claim
There's very little remaining that could argue against or challenge the superiority or status of the addressed person.
And when you'd finally gone
Once the addressed person had left, someone wrongly believed they were dead all along.
He tells me "you were dead all along"
Someone falsely believed the addressed person was deceased throughout their presence.
He was wrong, he hadn't lived a day
The person who thought the addressed was dead hadn’t truly experienced life.
The way you lived your final days
The way the addressed person lived their final days was reminiscent of a teenager deeply in love with religious beliefs and drug addiction.
A teenager in love with Christ and heroin
The addressed person lived their last days embodying the passion and intensity of a teenager who is both devoted to Christ and addicted to heroin.
Now you feel ashamed
Now, the addressed person feels embarrassed or remorseful.
But he feels nothing of the kind
Another person doesn’t share the same emotions of shame or regret as the addressed person.
He talks of things he wouldn't mind to try sometime,
The other person talks about things they might want to experience sometime.
But you've got little left to give
The addressed person has little energy or resources remaining.
His touch is not a thing you'll ever miss
The physical contact from another person is not something the addressed person will long for or miss.
And if you made a stand,
If the addressed person takes a firm position or stands up for something,
I'd stand with you til the end
The speaker would support the addressed person until the very end.
But you don't need a friend when you're
However, the addressed person doesn’t feel the need for a friend because
A teenager in love with Christ and heroin
They are deeply immersed in a state of being both devoted to Christ and addicted to heroin, akin to a teenager in love.
