The album suggests quite a troubled time in Jons life. and ive found out that he was depressed around this time. dunno if thats true. though it would make sense...like he was looking for answers.

its a great song. great album and it doesn't get the recognition it deserves. **** radioheads 'ok computer' album as one of the best ever. These Days is absolutely stunning musically and lyrically. Its my No.1

Should probably utilize the search feature, this question has been covered before.

The song is about a man trying to keep going and trying to find a reason to keep going. Just because it mentions Jebus or God, it doens't mean it's gotta religious message. Jon has used God very many times in his writings, he's a Jersey Italian Catholic, trust me, he's been to a Cathedral before. That's where this influence comes from. For all I know, Bon Jovi are probably much closer to be classified as a Satanic band, rather than a Christian one.

Where do these religion-related questions about BJ songs keep coming from and how are they relevant to anything or what difference does it make? That's what I wanna know.
