Switchfoot: Meant to Live Meaning
Song Released: 2003
Meant to Live Lyrics
And wondering why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he’s bent for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly, fly
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live...

This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway

Ultimately, this song is a religious one. I feel that it is the song of someone admitting that yes, we make mistakes and maybe try to live for the wrong reasons, but ultimately, it's about God and living for a higher purpose - to serve Him.
The line "we lost ourselves" is so often reflected in us in society - we go through a phase of not understanding ourselves, getting lost and not necessarily finding the right guidance. However, God can be that leader and He gives us so much to live for, and we should be living by that idea.
