Seether - The Gift Lyrics Meaning

This is the way the song spoke to me... It seems to get to me throughout the two significant changes in my life...

"Hold me now I need to feel relief, like I never wanted anything"
I need an escape from the wants in my life...

"I suppose I'll let this go and find a reason I'll hold on to"
I'll try to forget the negatives and remember the positives in life.

"I'm so ashamed of defeat, and I'm out of reason to believe in me, I'm out of trying to get by"
Defeat isn't that bad, but the constant feeling can be devastating; and I'm starting to lose the motivation for something I seem to be guaranteed for failure. What's the point?

"I'm so afraid of the gift you give me, I don't belong here and I'm not well"
Why am(was) I so deserving of your love?

"I'm so ashamed of the lie I'm living, Right on the wrong side of it all"
I am not who you think I am... Everything isn't as well as it seems.

"I can't face myself when I wake up, and look inside a mirror; I'm so ashamed of that thing"
I can barely look at myself; all I see is regret and failure.

"I suppose I'll let it go, until I have something more to say for me"
I'll forget about it for now, maybe next time I can see something better.

"Hold me now I need to feel complete, like I matter to the one I need"
You are the only one that gives me meaning to my life.

Yes, sometimes your own experiences can (mis)interpret a song to a meaning that fits your situation. I often sell myself short and sometimes it's hard to find a feeling of significance along with everything that went so wrong. Everything seems pointless if I'm not emotionally moving forward...
