(Submit New Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) Lyrics) (Submit New Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) Lyrics) Review about Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) Lust at Sea | Reviewer: Luke Donahue ------ About the song Messes Of Men performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) The message I get out of the song is that the Author describes a sin he struggles with. Lust of the flesh - i.e. "You caught me making eye, at the other boatman's wifes". The song describes how lusting has led to him having regrets in his life, and that real beauty is found in God, not man. The fact that the song is written from a boatman's viewpoint, adds to the interestingness of the lyrics Not religious. | Reviewer: Samuel Benjamin Casares ------ About the song In A Market Dimly Lit performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) It is not religious. It is God fearing. Religious is the term people use for themselves when they're going through the motions. That's all it is, religion. Nothing more. This song is something more. ___ | Reviewer: () ------ About the song Messes Of Men performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) >>>lulz, first off, good christian gentlemen? they're of jewish decent. weiss's mom converted to sufi. their songs encorporate judeo-christian themes. they don't consider themselves a christian band. "Weiss has stated he doesn't think they are a Christian band. Their lyrics reflect a personal relationship with God, and are not evangelistic. Other lyrical themes explored include suffering and self-doubt." do any of you use google, or do you just spit out whatever fits fine and fuzzy next to your hearts. This is one awesome song. Seriously. | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song In A Market Dimly Lit performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) I can actually FEEL what they are talking about; I heard them sing these lyrics from their album and I got hooked; their lyrics ALONE could turn some heads their way. The way they sing them is almost TOO powerful to just take all at once. Plus, it's religious; this song is pure win! All in all, my favorite line (as weak as it may be) is "The truth belongs to God! The mistakes were mine!" because I can so totally relate. But the repetition of "The music our collisions make!" is interesting; there isn't a sound described but the repetition actually helps in that department! And then all the raw emotion becomes apparent in bliss of lyric-ingenious and powerful music backing it up. This is one great song. Long Story Short | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Messes Of Men performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) Ok first of all. The mewithoutYou crew are decent Christian gentlemen who write beautiful lyrics about God, sin, love, etc. They are not about Christian mysticism, Christian Science, or Christian Existientialism. They are about the good Lord. Clearly & obviously, Messes of Men is about sin. And I completely agree with Chdang. The lyrics seem even deeper (not that they're not because they ARE) because Aaron is a superb writer. He majored in English & is qualified to teach at college level. excellent | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Wolf Am I! (And Shadow) performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) i really just cant get over how well the lyrics are put together in this song. also gotta love the really funky rhythymic bit before the outro where hes saying One day the water's gunna wash it away. beauty turned to sickness | Reviewer: lauren ------ About artist/band Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) I agree with all of the beauty stated below. MewithoutYou has always been an incredible inspiration to me! Alas! Imagine the pain I felt when I found that they follow the teachings of Bawa and mix them with Christianity and corporate it into their lyrics...cry myself to sleep every night. As a HUGE mwY fan... | Reviewer: Amber ------ About the song Messes Of Men performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) A LOT of mewithoutYou's lyrics make sense if you check out some personal info on the band, especially Aaron. The albumn "Brother, Sister", which this song is from, has a lot to do with deep spirituality comparable to Christian mysticism. The main message of the albumn is that nothing-especially us-exsists. God is all there is. "Messes of Men" is a great opener for the albumn. It sets up the situation we're all in in some way of another. I don't want to get all worked up over what the song is about (mwY wouldn't want that!), just do a bit of reasearch and it'll make sense. It's a very mature albumn that digs deep in the soul. It changes my life. Put on your waiters. love it | Reviewer: Megann ------ About the song January 1979 performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) i love this song. the depth and hidden meaning is awesome. mewithout you is an amazing band i love everything they put out. as someone has already said, they are a christian band, but you really wouldn't know it by the style or a preachy messages in the songs. you could notice by the topics they write about, not that they necessarily talk about God, but that the worldview from which they are speaking from is one that lines up with the word of God. also the language they chose to use(or not use) and so on.. review | Reviewer: Chdang ------ About the song Messes Of Men performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) "I do not exist," we faithfully insist, - "I'm nothing without God" Sailing in our separate ships and from each tiny caravel. - doing things with our own strength not depending on God (tiring of trying, unnecessary dying) Such distance from our friends, Like a scratch across the lens, Made everything look wrong from anywhere we stood. - blinded to the Truth Caught me making eyes at the other boatman's wives, And heard me laughing louder at the jokes told by their daughters. - felt the conviction for committing adultery I'd set my course for land, but you well understand, (speaking to God) It takes a steady hand to navigate adulterous waters. - (lead us not into temptation) The propeller's spinning blades held acquaintance with the waves, (in adulterous waters) As there's mistakes I've made no rowing could outrun. - sins and mistakes you made will catch up to you I'm nonetheless the librarian and secretary's son. - he's an ordinary man The tarnish on my brass, the mildew on my glass - I'd never want someone so crass as to want someone like me - he felt unclean, sinful and unworthy of God's love But a few leagues off the shore, I bit a flashing lure, And I assure you, it was not what I expected it to be! - pretty worldly things that we idol (lust after) and are "hooked" on I still tastes its kiss, that dull hook in my lip - past mistakes that still hurt (maybe past relationships) Is a memory as useless as a rod without a reel. To an anchor ever dropped, sea-sick yet still docked, - useless to look back on things we can't change, useless like a rod without a reel, anchor not dropped, feel "sea-sick" but still at the same spot Captain spotted napping with his first mate at the wheel. - going nowhere Floating forgetfully along, with no need to be strong, We keep our confessions long, but when we pray we keep it short. - going with the flow of the world, too much self-pity and too little time in prayer I drank a thimble full of fire, I'm not ever coming back... Oh, my God. - a small portion of God's Spirit made him leave his old self (talking to God) "I do not exist," we faithfully insist, While watching sink the heavy ship with everything we knew. - letting go his past and things he thought was right (worldly knowledge is nothing comparing with God's wisdom) And if ever you come near, I'll hold up high a mirror. Lord, I could never show you anything as beautiful as you! - his humble and contrite heart before God To Rowan.... | Reviewer: Derrick ------ About the song Messes Of Men performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) I can see that he questions God's existence but then quickly corrects it, "Like the horseshoe crab in its proper season sheds its shell" And I don't think that he's referring to doubting if he's his own God or if God is his own. He's saying it's human nature to go astray from the bigger picture(eternal life with God) and he realizes it's hard to go against it, hence "I'd set my course for land, but you well understand, It takes a steady hand to navigate adulterous waters." Sin | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Messes Of Men performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) This song is about sin. Caught me making eyes at the other boatman's wives, And heard me laughing louder at the jokes told by their daughters. I'd set my course for land, but you well understand, It takes a steady hand to navigate adulterous waters. pretty self explanatory God | Reviewer: John ------ About the song In a Sweater, Poorly Knit performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) This song is entirely about the word of God. Not to get all Christiany on you, because I don't consider myself a Christian, but the lyrics are proposing that it doesn't matter how hard you try, how many fields you plant, how strong willed you are. If you do try and do these things on your own and without God, you will fail. End of story. Theory/Opinion | Reviewer: Rowan ------ About the song Messes Of Men performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) About your so called Christian Existentialism theory,yes it might have to do somewhat with that but it might also have to do with his doubts about God also and weather he wants God in his life. "I do not exist," we faithfully insist, Sailing in our separate ships and from each tiny caravel. Tiring of trying, there's a unnecessary dying, Like the horseshoe crab in its proper season sheds its shell.--Here I think he's trying to point out how Christians blindly follow religion traveling off into the world spreading God's "word".And because of God and his word wars have been fought,innocent people have died just because they think differently. The boatman's wives are the temptation to do wrong from what he's been taught and still yet he walks away from all the wreckage,and the reference to being the librarian and the secretary's son has to do with not being able to decide if you are God's child or your own God,and somehow your both. "I'd never want someone so crass as to want someone like me."--Debating on weather he wants God in his life,so he doubts god hence the hook reference and doubting in God hurts which leaves him unsure.But still he watches so many people blindly follow God,He will always have doubts but if he ever sees God he'll know and he'll be thankful;so until then should he just blindly follow? Lyrics! | Reviewer: Kari ------ About the song January 1979 performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) These are some of the greatest lyrics I've ever heard. And I listen to some pretentious music (I'll admit it) so I know what I'm talking about. Man, these lyrics are incredible! I can't get over them. AMAZING | Reviewer: Chris Norberg ------ About the album Brother, Sister performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) I have been listening to mwY for some time now and I'm finding I love it more and more each time i listen to it. I have grown an appreciation for the music, the lyrics, and instruments. My skull clenches when I listen. The drumming, the screams! pure soul I honestly have never liked a band so much in my life. I can't wait to see them live again The Nautical Theme...so awesome | Reviewer: Aan-Sofie ------ About the song Messes Of Men performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) a vivid description on having to form your own standard for your actions based on what God has asked of you. Dealing with attraction to the opposite sex, the temptation and regret. And walking away from those "wrecks" admiring the beauty, sastifiction and perfection of Jesus. Two Version | Reviewer: Yanni Depp ------ About the song We Know Who Our Enemies Are performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) There are two versions of this song - one on the EP 'I Never Said That I Was Brave' and one on 'A to B Life'. The biggest difference between them is the ending. The ending on I Never Said That I Was Brave is quite dischordant, whereas the ending on A To B Life has a really effective melody that keeps repeating. Also, on A To B Life he screams 'man' at the end, which sounds great. Also, on A To B Life the volume fades out and back in at the end which sounds amazing! Mewithoutyou...ahhh, amazing!! | Reviewer: JC ------ About artist/band Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) Mewithoutyou has something that is rare to find in the music-scene these days, and that is depth. If anyone says that they are just your general cut-yourself-to-sleep emo, then they are either deaf or mentally challenged. Mewithoutyou's beautiful lyrics delivered with such power and emotion are enough to make you fall in love or forget that you were in love with something else in the first place. "I was floating in a peaceful sea, 'rescued' by a sinking ship..." <<<<<Just a taste of their lyrical brilliance! They are hands-down the most inspirational band out there! poetry | Reviewer: kristen ------ About the song January 1979 performed by Mewithoutyou (Me Without You) mewithoutYou has to be in my top five favorite bands of all time. this song, along with every other one on their albums, contains so many allusions to deeper things. i'm using this song for an ap english poetic evaluation cuz there's so much to it.
