Am I Understood?

I have been listening to this song for ages– literally, probably close to 6-7 years now. Every time I heard the song, I always thought the artists were writing about a girl, but today driving home from Indian food, I came to the conclusion that it is about God. Take a look:

Sometimes it’s embarrassing to talk to you;
To hold a conversation with the only one who sees right through
This version of myself
I try to hide behind.
I’ll bury my face because my disgrace will leave me terrified.

And sometimes I’m so thankful for your loyalty;
Your love regardless of
The mistakes I make will spoil me.
My confidence is, in a sense, a gift you’ve given me
And I’m satisfied to realize you’re all I’ll ever need.

You looked into my life and never stopped
And you’re thinking all my thoughts
Are so simple, but so beautiful.
And you recite my words right back to me
Before I even speak
You let me know, I am understood.

And sometimes I spend my time
Just trying to escape.
I work so hard so desperately, in an attempt to create space.
‘Cause I want distance from the utmost important thing I know:
I see your love, then turn my back and beg for you to go.

You’re the only one who understands completely,
You’re the only one knows me yet still loves completely.

And sometimes the place I’m at is at a loss for words;
If I think of something worthy I know that its already yours.
And through the times I’ve faded and you’ve outlined me again
You’ve just patiently waited, to bring me back and then.

The noise has broken my defence,
Let me embrace salvation.
Your voice has broken my defence,
Let me embrace salvation.

Am I Understood?
