The meaning of these Creed songs?
I know this band takes a beating in this forum, but I like them a lot. I think I have an idea, but what are the meanings of the following songs:
What's This Life For?
One Last Breath
What's This Life For?
One Last Breath

Hurray for a child
That makes it through
If there's any way
Because the answer lies in you
They're laid to rest
Before they know just what to do
Their souls are lost
Because they could never find
What's this life for
I see your soul, it's kind of gray
I see your heart, you look away
You see my wrist, I know your pain
I know your purpose on your plane
Don't say a last prayer
Because you could never find
What's this life for
But they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle the score
Cause we all live
Under the reign of one king
"Their souls are lost
Because they could never find
What's this life for"
=soulds are "lost" becuase the peron never realized that this life is to be spent as a follower of God
"Don't say a last prayer
Because you could never find
What's this life for"
If the only time you prayed in your life is at the end (ie: on the planes way down, etc) then you might as well not say the prayer, you spent a whole lifetime not knowing this life is to be for God
"Cause we all live
Under the reign of one king" Obvious
The song is about realizing God''s love and following him before it's too late, that is, only after you're already in trouble.
Scott's not asking "hey man, what is life for?"
He's saying that others find out too late what life is for.
