The Diary of Jane
Breaking Benjamin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Interesting Facts ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I had to I would put myself right beside you
So let me ask you
Would ya like that? Would ya like that?
And I don't mind If you say this love is the last time
So now I'll ask
Do ya like that? Do ya like that? No

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
So, tell me
How it should be

Try to find out
What makes you tick as I lie down
Sore and sick
Do ya like that? Do ya like that?
There's a fine line between love and hate
And I don't mind, just let me say
That I like that, I like that

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
So tell me
How it should be

Desperate, I will crawl
Waiting for so long
No love, there's no love
Die for anyone
What have I become?

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place
In the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way




I still try to find my place
In the diary of Jane

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Breaking Benjamin's The Diary Of Jane seem to be about someone trying to find their place in a relationship that is failing. The first verse brings up the idea of putting oneself next to the other person, but it is unclear whether that is what the other person wants. It seems like the singer is trying to gauge the other person's interest in being close to them. The second verse continues to explore the dynamics of the relationship, mentioning that something is getting in the way and that the singer is trying to find out what makes the other person tick.


The chorus brings up the title of the song, The Diary Of Jane, and it sounds like the singer is trying to find their place within Jane's story. The next verse mentions desperation and crawling, which suggests that the singer is willing to do whatever it takes to make the relationship work. However, there is a sense of hopelessness when the singer questions, "What have I become?" The final repetition of the chorus may suggest that no matter how hard the singer tries, they cannot find their place in Jane's story.


Overall, the lyrics of The Diary Of Jane are open to interpretation but seem to be about the complexities of a failing relationship and the struggle to find one's place within it.
