My older brother used to have this on his computer back in 2008. This same vedio. He passed away in 2010. As I was really young. He used to live out of town for studying and I was always exited for him to come back. The day the news of his death came I didn't know what death really meant. My dad told me that he has become a star in the sky and he'd now stay there. This song was so close to my heart. I searched for this everywhere but I wasn't able to find it as I didn't remember the lyrics. A few days ago while in my local train I was sitting next to this man (if my brother wouldn't been alive he'd be the same age) and I heard this song coming from his earphones muffled. My heart sank so in. I asked him what the name was and to write it down for me. Then I told him my story. He smiled and handed me his earphones and played this song. I literally started crying infront of him. Because I realised that the last time I heard this song my brother was beside me.
You might have met an angel that day. Sounds like your brother wants to give you comfort. Sending you messages from above. I’m so sorry for your loss, time doesn’t make it hurt any less I know.... take heart that he’s watching over you, live a life he would be proud of, I believe he’s watching and cheering you on. 😊 I pray that Jesus Christ hold your heart anytime you feel sorrow. ❤️
Wow my brother died 5/1\08 it was a tough year for even til this day i think him and laugh and cry even now it's hard holding back the tear your story is my too god bless 🙏😓
This story made me cry. I needed to Shed some tears of stress today. Sorry you lost your brother booper at such a young age. We are meant to live for so much more without being oppressed.
This wasn't my childhood, it was my life. Switchfoot got me through some of the toughest moments in my life. The legend of Chin in 1996 started it all, and ever since that album I was mezmorized. Thank you Switchfoot for being the greatest musical influnce of my life.
Apparently it was on the UK version of the soundtrack. I was flipping out because I saw this video on another video and I knew it wasn’t in the movie nor the soundtrack.
according to Wikipedia Lyrically this song was inspired by T. S. Eliot's poem "The Hollow Men." About the song, singer/writer Jon Foreman has said, "Maybe the kid in the song is me, hoping that I'm meant for more than arguments and failed attempts to fly. Something deep inside of me yearns for the beautiful, the true. I want more than what I've been sold; I want to live life."[3] According to Foreman, this song was also inspired by U2's "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For."[4] This track refers to C.S. Lewis's novel "Out of the Silent Planet" with the lyric "Maybe we're bent and broken." It also refers to John Steinbeck's novel Of Mice and Men, in the lyric "Dreaming about Providence and whether mice or men have second tries." The song is well known for its main guitar riff, positive lyrics and overall heavy aggressive sound."
I remember bands like this from when i was a kid. Im 24 now and listening to the music we have always loved seems to hit a little different, finally realizing the message. Growing up is kinda weird right? But its pretty cool too 😎 i hope someone out there relates🤜🤛
I just realized this is my favorite song. Heard it on the radio this morning and started thinking about all the times associated with this song, and it seems like some of my best childhood memories are somehow connected to it. Love it.
My Uncle had this song on his computer when I was like 5. So I basically grew up listening to this song through this mv. He passed away this year on the 24th of May due to covid along with grand pa. For me he was the world... I truely miss him and I just found this music vid and relieved those days when he was here.
This song was stuck in my head and couldn’t get a hold of my boyfriend to tell me the name of the song. I always loved this song back in 2000's! I am glad I found it after hours of searching for the song today.
This song has stayed with me for 10 years. It has watched me grow through my teens. Watched me bullied, failing, crumbling, while always powering me up.
I heard this on the radio this morning. I felt a lump in my throat as all the memories from the past flooded in, I hadnt heard this song in at least 15 years... It sucks getting old
Fumbling his confidence 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?

SweetAnn Sour Switch foot was not always a Christian band. They started out in the late 90's as an Alternative Rock Band. They are now a Christian band.
You don't know how long it took me to find this song again. The struggle and brain power I've had to go through just to remember this fucking song is way too much. But now I'm happy that I've found it.
Exacto yo digo lo mismo, porque esta banda fue un exito en el 2009 y pues pienso q fue la falta de internet global en todo el mundo, ahora que muchos manejan el celular para todo le dan más like a la nueva basura que sale y así se va devaluando el Rock Clasico el impulsor de los mejores tiempos 🎸🎼🎵🎶

Holly crap this song was meant to help promote Spider-Man 2? I never knew about the connection!!!!!
Evil Greg Productions Spider Man 2 had about 5 different videoclips connected to it.
Apparently it was on the UK version of the soundtrack. I was flipping out because I saw this video on another video and I knew it wasn’t in the movie nor the soundtrack.
I'm surprised by this too! Spiderman 2 was my favorite movie, and I had no idea this was connected!

Yup my speaker are correctly configured. Thanks for making this song, it is great by the way.
this song is incredible in so many ways
I love this song! I still play it 20 something years later.😂

awesome !! the intro is absolutely incredible with your headphones on - I was listening just for that alone !
nagee76 i know right
nagee76 totally agree about the headphones...must experience it. sounds like you are standing on stage in the middle of it...nice...

“…..But we lost ourselves.” Damn, I felt that 😢

Fumbling his confidence
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 inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Dreaming about Providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we've been livin' with our eyes half open
Maybe we're bent and broken, broken
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for second life
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live
We were meant to live
