what does this text stand for?!?   
Well, in this last days, I took a look in internet about some songs, you
know, I'm playing for training ;) in english. I'm a free webmaster, so
I'm looking forward the "right song" to use in backgraund soundtrack
into one webpage. I need a cool song in higt compressed mp3 format, with
a generic and not specific text or context or situation. yesterday I
find this old songs, it's a old rock song, it sounds not bad!

http://www.downloads.nl/search/mp3/1/bon%20jovi+keep%20the%20faith

Well, you know, in italy it's possible to use the mp3 format on
no-profit website without paying the royaltie's fee, if the file is
hight compressed in mp3 format only. So it seems it's necessary to rerip
the song into hight level mp3 format, just to degradate and to reduce
its quality for a free web use without any legal problems.

The music and its sound and its rhythm it's important but the text too,
so you know I took a look inside the meaning of its text.

"Mother mother tell your children
That their time has just begun
I have suffered for my anger
There are wars that cant be won
Father father please believe me
I am laying down my guns
I am broken like an arrow
Forgive me
Forgive your wayward son
Everybody needs somebody to love
(mother, mother)
Everybody needs somebody to hate
(please believe me)
Everybodys bitching
cause they cant get enough
And its hard to hold on
When theres no one to lean on
Faith: you know youre gonna live thru the rain
Lord you got to keep the faith
Faith: dont let your love turn to hate
Right now we got to
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Lord we got to keep the faith
Tell me baby when I hurt you
Do you keep it all inside
Do you tell me als forgiven
And just hide behind your pride
Everybody needs somebody to love
(mother, father)
Everybody needs somebody to hate
(please dont leave me)
Everybodys bleeding
cause the times are tough
Well its hard to be strong
When theres no one to dream on
Faith: you know youre gonna live thru the rain
Lord you got to keep the faith
Now you know is not too late
Oh you got to keep the faith
Faith: dont let your love turn to hate
Right now we got to
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Keep the faith
Lord we got to keep the faith
Walking in the footsteps
Of societys lies
I dont like what I see no more
Sometimes I wish that I was blind
Sometimes I wait forever
To stand out in the rain
So no one sees me cryin
Trying to wash away the pain
Mother father
Theres things Ive done I cant erase
Every night we fall from grace
Its hard with the world in yours face
Trying to hold on, trying to hold on
Faith: you know youre gonna live thru the rain
Lord you got to keep the faith
Faith: dont let your love turn to hate
Right now we got to keep the faith
Faith: now its not too late
Try to hold on, trying to hold on
Keep the faith"

I don't traslate it, I think I don't need to traslate to understand its
meanings, :#)

well you know, IMHO it's a cool and nice text, it's quite complex and
generic, and IMHO it's not correlated in direct or about one specific
situation IMHO. So it's handy for lots of situations and for a "twilight
zone stories" too 

Well, here are my questions:

1-No doubt about the title of the song, but what is it about the text?
I read it for a couple of times, you know, I think it smells like a
prayer, ya! it seems a sort of rock entrity, don't you?

2-what does "Everybodys bitching" stand for?! 

3-Does the repetition of "Mother, mother" stand for a sort of "Hail
Mary"?! Does the repetition of "Father, father" stand for an holy prayer
a sort of "Our Father, Lord"?

Tnx a lots ;)
