dreaming of revelry is dreaming of having youre freedom and happiness. just know it was you that had a hold of my heart, just know that i love you but he cant let go of that lifestyle. Hes describing himself, how hes enjoying himself when hes at a "revelry". He askes about her because apparently they have no connections to each other, because he ruined the relationship. its hurting him because hes causing her pain.
Kings of leon notion meaning full#
I still feel full of pain" the girl misses him and it its hurting the both of them. Hes basically having fun and whatever hes having fun doing hes sort of addicted to, enough to cause him to lose the girl. Revelry means Lively and noisy festivities, a celebration.

Great fucking song man I heard this album 7 years ago for the first time and it's still the best. Oh and btw this is the brother Caleb singer and guitarist who is second oldest of 4 and likely a great brother if what he's saying is really how he feels. This man must be truly torn and I completely understand his struggle it's amazing that he can see it so clearly he must be a very wise man. Being the man of God he is he knows better but his sinful nature allows him to and pushes him even to continue down the path of the unrighteous. I think he's lost in his addiction but he likes it and feels guilty bc it's doc prescribed so he's been directed to use so he's confused but he knows it's wrong and he loves the irony bc of the greed that makes him escuse what he knows to be wrong just like society he's in a bliss with himself bc it's like a perfect storm as he's instructed by law almost to do wrong but he likes the feeling the numb so he embraces it and in so embraces evil that brings it.

So he's killing himself and he realizes that which is why he's crying but he can't stop that's how greed works. That's what he meant when he said but the demon and me that he's selfish but he's mourning her bc his selfishness is keeping him from her bc using is selfish and doesn't allow us to be truly selfless bc how are you selfless if your greed led you to dope that only you can feel. But yeah he's afflicted between two loves knowing he can never be what she deserves bc of his addiction and it stopping him from being the best man he could for her. I agree with what's been said I think it's even deeper he's definitely having fun it's not cocaine tho it's the real numbing feeling of opium he's talking about for sure.
