IT'S CRAZY MAN I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS SONG FOR 20 YEARS AND FINALLY I FOUND IT IN 2023...I'M LITERALLY OUT OF MY HEAD RIGHT NOW!!!!

This took me back to a place in my mind that I forgot existed...

HOLY COW THAT OPENING CHORD UNLOCKED A TWENTY YEAR OLD MEMORY FOR ME I NEVER KNEW I HAD LOST. 17 year old me from back then says hello to all of you here 🤘🏻

Botched my own suicide, found myself surrounded by family that loves me. Everything still hurts, I still have those thoughts sometimes but I'm trying to change. This song definitely helps. Praise the Lord! ❤

That guitar rift is f'n magical.

The nostalgia is real

"We want more than this world's got to offer, we want more than the wars of our fathers" **_POWERFUL STATEMENT**_

2022 and this is still sooo good. Nostalgic to say the least...

I first heard this in middle School. Now, at 27, it makes so much MORE sense.

I looked for this song for 12 years

Another song from the early 2000s rock era, the nostalgia is hitting.

Rediscovering this in 2024 is wild.

The opening riff of this song is always a perfect headphone tester

2020, still coming back to this album.

So many memories with this song. Thank God for Switchfoot.

I loved this song as a teen. Never thought life would be so difficult. Life is precious ,everyone has a reason to live. Don't let the darkness win🖤

This song makes me think of 3 close friends who sadly passed away before we hit 30 R.I.P James Edward chatman , Andrew Theodore Duba and Nicholas Scott Burns. I love you guys!

I love the switching of the sound between headphones in the beginning

Who’s here in 2024

I almost died from covid and MRSA, and God spared my life because he alone has my life in his hands and I'm meant to live for so much more than lying in bed in a hospital bed. I had to learn to walk again but with Christ Jesus all things are possible. He is my redeemer and I live to serve him.

to this day, this guitar tone has been unmatched.

**uses song to check if speakers are plugged in correctly**

Such a banger that won't ever get old.

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] Ah-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 [Bridge] 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, yeah [Chorus] 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 (We were meant to live) Have we lost ourselves? We were meant to live (We were meant to live) We were meant to live

This song is so nostalgic for me. I miss those days sometimes. Don't get me wrong, I love being a husband and father, but this came out when I was such a carefree high schooler.

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…

"We were meant to live for so much more" says it all

That intro will forever be in my head

My mom would listen to these types of rock songs all the time when I was around 6 and now being 20 I always go back just to try to relive my childhood

Finally found this song; I searched the internet for countless hours, and listened to about 100 relevant songs.

Woke up with these lyrics in my head for some reason. Came here for a giant dose of nostalgia 😊 it’s like being 13 all over again.

Can't believe this song is 19 years old. Still one of my favorites

Who's here because they grew up to this music:p

This song saved my life plenty of times, thank you switchfoot

This song has lived rent free in my head since I was young

This song will never get old to me. It's lyrics are gold. Feb22/19 Jesus loves you 🙌🤙

I hadn't heard this song in YEARS!! It came out on the radio today and I was screaming the lyrics 😭💖

One of the greatest Christian bands of all time !! I love them 💗

This is an anthem of humanity in any age. We were always mean to live for so much more. It's so easy to lose ourselves - but we continue to live for so much more. More than the wars of our fathers. And that's what will save us.

*“Maybe we’ve been living with our eyes half open, maybe we’re bent and broken...”*

2019 anyone still listening ? I Haven't heard this for years, man this brings me memories where did the time go??

The intro popped in my mind after a nap, got stuck and kept playing and here I am on KZfaq to listen one of my all time fav track.

This is one of those songs you’ve hummed and made up words singing along in your head unable to find it for years 🥲

Man those lyrics hit deep.

I was 13 when this song came out...I'm glad I had this song's message to inspire my teenage years.

This song always made me tear up, but now that I have faith I can't help but full on cry.

I was 14 when this was out in 2003. I still remember it. I had my very first job at dominos pizza. Big brother in Australia was massive. Those were happier times. Late 90s early 2000s were awesome ❤.

April 2020 : Switchfoot in times of Corona virus. Stay safe, everyone.

My middle school gym teacher played this during class sometimes and I’ve trying find it ever since. Such a good song!

Switchfoot came and sang this song to us at God's Extended Hand Homeless Shelter in San Diego, in like 2013..he gave up his Thanksgiving day to come and say hello and sing this song to us. It was so special I was in shock. What a beautiful thing to do.

This reminds me time when I used to dream of life instead of constant dread every day. Man this hits hard dealing with life's struggles. Rest in peace Shane Mangan

Ah the memories here.. Thanks to this song playing on a local radio station back in 04.. I called in to request this to be played, ended up winning a private concert & lunch with them. Such a amazing experience, I took my mom she fell in love.. she recently saw them again.. years later at a concert just last year.. it was also of course amazing!! WE WERE MEANT TO LIVE FOR SO MUCH MORE HAVE WE LOST OURSELVES

We need more music like this to fight depression and anxiety!!! Still listening May 2019 !!! We were meant to live for so much more!!! ❤🔥❤🔥

We were meant to live for so MUCH MORE!!!

Left Speaker = Working Right Speaker = Working Subwoofer = Working Thank you for such a great song and a great tool!

This song was really ahead of its time, it means so much today and the way the world is.

Who's here just because they remember how wonderful this song is!😨😝

“And everything inside screams for second life” That right there. 🙌🏼

Anyone else think this is the best album cover of all time?

Commanding vocals with a message, and excellent guitar riffs.

how does this song not get the attention it deserves?

Turning 30 today as I listen to this song once more, it hits hard, but not in a bad way, rather it reminds me to.. live, not just survive, I gotta make sure my years ahead aren't wasted this time.

I remember first hearing this song on a Now16 CD 💿 when I was 8 years old. I’m 28 years old now how time flies! This song hits different being older. May God bless and protect you all 🙏

Awesome meaningful track. Praise Jesus! 🖤

This song really hit home for me. I've been living to work, when I should be working for a living, a meaningful living.

This song resonates with me more today than it was a decade ago. It also resonates with today's society where second chances aren't possible. When that happens, we lose the ability to forgive and in turn, we lose ourselves and our individuality. We were meant to live for so much more, never forget that friends and never let anyone or anything take anything away from you. God bless

Almost 20 years later, and the lyrics somehow are still in my brain. Is this sense-making?

I had not heard this song in forever, this is a great song

I remember back in 2003-2004 they came to Hawaii, I went to their concert at about 11 years old. That day, front row I gave my life to Christ along with my best friend. This song means so much to me! 💯🙏🏼

Anybody else transported back to high school because of this song?

This song will never get old. 🔥

2021 still coming back. Praise the lord I miss my army unit. We graduated to this song. Pray they are okay, lord please come back soon so I can see them again,

The guitar in this song absolutely riiiips

20 years ago I listened to this song crying in my car on my way to my retail job which I dreaded. This song got me through some dark days and helped me dream that better days were possible. Now I am an Assistant Professor and listening to be reminded of where I came from. Such great music, wish you all the best!

This song just randomly popped into my head today. All these years and I'm still lost and looking for that "more"

the riff is awesome!!!

Sometimes music like this takes me back, then I get kinda sad knowing I'll never really be there again. Good times, the best of times.

Who else is slappin 2023 😤🔥

This is one of those songs you randomly have a memory of a single note can’t remember the song but when you find it remember just how amazing a song it was. Unlocked a great childhood memory.

In the 2000’s I was in kindergarten, this song made me a rocker. Till this day I love metal rock and more. This song is my roots.

Such a hypnotizing and amazing song I’ve always thought. Something about the intro guitars, the lyrics, and just the whole jam of this song, it’s definitely one of those that can easily get stuck in your head for weeks

If you don't have a relationship with the Lord Jesus then I pray that you ask him to show you who he is. He loves you more than you can ever imagine. And he's been wanting & watching you. And he's seesyour pain & he cries with you. Trust me I know bcuz I was a heroin addict for 12 years & I couldn't stop by myself. So I cried out to him for his help. And the next day he helped me I got into a fist fight with an off duty cop & got arrested. And they did a pregnancy test & it was positive. So not only did he save me but he saved my unborn son too. My son turned 20 on May 8th! And I've been clean n sober for 20 years now. It's all bcuz of the Lord Jesus Christ Almighty plz give him a try you won't regret it.

I can't remember the day I heard this song when I was younger, but it still gives me that ethereal feeling. I'll never forget that.

This song is actually amazing. Beautiful lyrics

We need to keep this music alive. Let’s teach our siblings and children and everyone we know.

One of the best albums ever. In any genre

Take a listen to this song, and continue to stay awake, come back to it when you feel lost.

Early 2000’s, “we want more than the wars of our fathers~” Almost 20 years later, U.S. still at war

“Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years draw near of which you will say, “I have no pleasure in them”;” ‭‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭12:1‬ ‭

The we want more than thia worlds got to offer hit HARD! Truly moving. Thank you switchfoot

If you listening in 2023 you a legend

Aaaaahhh! Summer of 2003. The best year of my life, & music, like this, was so good still. I was 23 when this came out, & life could not have been better. Carefree, adventurous, spontaneous, & I was pretty damn cute, too! Thank you, Switchfoot, for this wonderful song, & for instilling the memories of 2003 in my mind for life.

Thank you Jesus You are God use us Lord to show your love for others.

Was is still a great song....moved me out of the comfort zone...God was changed me to trust him...was has been a great adventure challenge to step away from the known to the unknown...God showed up over and over again...... thank you Lord for calling me to deeper level in my walk with you

Happy 20th anniversary to The Beautiful Letdown! Such an iconic album ❤

I never understood this song until i had been 'awakened'. Lovely message

New headphonss, work great

✝️ rock at its best. And to think some religions think music is evil.

My American friend lived in Tanzania for two years, and when he left in 2006, he gave me this album as a gift. Brings so much memories. I miss him, too bad when white people leave it's like they never look back. May be he thought i was only going to ask for stuff but I honestly looked at him as a brother and i loved him dearly.

This song makes me think of church camp back in 2004 lol
