This is the BEST song...It's also Howard Jones' the new singer of KSE favorite song, but he hasn't yet sang it on tour.. maybe because of the very personal meanng behind the song.. as revealed in an interview with original singer Jesse Leach: "The Element of One" is also an ode to my wife, the love she has given me and the love I have experienced from family members, and being torn away from them, in a touring situation, being away from home. I wrote that song to deal with being away from home, away from the people that I love and having to be on the road"

better lyrics: ......Breathe me in...... Torn disbelieving separation I close my eyes to see you this is for you, everything I am this is for you, take it from me torn disbelieving separation I close my eyes but there is no escaping this this is for you, everything I am this is for you, take it from me in your arms in your soul I will be rejuvenation breathe me in,I am forever deep within,I am eternal I will return to you I am with you always I will never turn away from you breathe me in,I am forever deep within,I am eternal

this song is obviously about his sometimes feeling seperated from god, and how he sometimes needs to just give everything he has to god, and god will be his rejuvenation. or so he believes
