Flyleaf – The Kind lyrics
It's like being in love you rob your own mind and defile your bed
You ignore the fate of the players who both end up dead
And you pretend for us and you pretend for them
This fairytale will make them jealous of you

But it's not the kind that you talked about
And it's just the kind that rips the clothing off your mind

She is feeding you and you lie with her
And for the first time your right arm becomes useful
As you sin with it you wanna cut it off but instead you thank god for all of the wrong you do.

But it's not the kind that you talked about
And it's just the kind that rips the clothing off your mind

She is feeding you and you lie with her
And for the first time your right arm becomes useful
As you sin with it you wanna cut it off but instead you thank god for all of the wrong you do.

You cut the cord today with God's hand to hold yours steady
He waits for you to apply the pressure
The warmth of His breath wrapped in His words
As He repeats His Truth after Truth after Truth after Truth
And it's just the kind the kind you talked about and it's just the kind
That clothes your mind with Christ
He is feeding you and you know the truth and I pray this is the last song I will sing to you
I'm sorry Father, I'm sorry sister, I'm sorry brother, I'm sorry everybody.

    This song is about sexual immorality. How some Christians can keep sinning and recognize it but still praise God for all the wrong they do. Every time they try to get love from a person it's "not the kind they talk about." They need God's love. Once they ask for forgiveness and breathe in the breath of God they finally understand the love they had been yearning for.

    "as you sin with it you wanna cut it off but instead you thank God for all the wrong you do"
    declaring yourself a christian is easy, living as one isn't. I think this song is about every christians journey in faith. We're not perfect, we make mistakes, the important thing is how we proceed after our we made mistakes, do we stop or continue? Do we learn from it or not? Everything is a blessing from God, even the mistakes we did. It's how He teach us to be stronger and firmer in our faith. Let's thank him for everything.

    You know, I'm not christian. I don't get along with god, but I still really like this song. "he is feeding you, and you know the truth, and i pray this is the last song i will sing to you. " I'm not christian, and honestly, I never will be. But that part really touches me, because I wish I could've known it was like before the choice was taken from me by me.
