Lone Riders
Lone Riders: Navigating Life's Crossroads with South of Eden
Lyrics
Lone Riders getting high
Lone Riders are indulging in intoxication.
Another fork in the road
They encounter yet another decision point or dilemma in life.
My shoes are splitting sides
The singer feels torn or divided, unsure which direction to take.
I don’t know which way to go
There's confusion about the right path to choose.
Lone Riders getting high
Reiteration of the Lone Riders engaging in substance use.
We’re driving sticks and stones
They persist despite difficulties, represented by driving sticks and stones.
We’re barely getting by
Struggling to survive or make ends meet.
Riding on broken bones
Continuing despite significant challenges and hardships.
Lone riders getting high
Reiteration of Lone Riders being intoxicated.
Time keeps passing by
Emphasizing the passage of time.
Lone Riders born to die
Expressing a fatalistic view of Lone Riders’ existence.
I’d give a fuck if you would
Not caring much about others’ opinions or concerns.
If you’d ask me I’d
Willingness to guide someone anywhere if asked.
Take you to any neighborhood
A willingness to assist but suggesting hesitation or reluctance.
And if you’d ask me twice
Warning against repeated inquiries or requests.
Well I don’t think that you should
Advice against persistently seeking help or advice.
Robbing, stealing, cries
Actions like theft and deception despite intentions.
Your intentions weren’t so good
Actions didn’t align with good intentions.
Lone riders getting high
Reiteration of Lone Riders being intoxicated.
Time Keeps passing by
Reiteration of time passing by, reinforcing the transient nature of life.
Lie, don’t lie, lady lie with me
Repetition of encouraging someone to lie and indulge in actions freely, but the consequences are dire (lie, try, and die).
Don’t try, do you what you want and lie
-Don’t lie, lady lie with me
-Don’t try, do what you want and get by
-Lie, don’t lie, lady lie with me
-Don’t try, do you what you want and lie
-Don’t lie, lady lie with me
-Don’t try, do what you want and die
-Don’t lie, lady lie with me
-Don’t try, do what you want and die
-Don’t lie, lady lie with me
-Don’t try, do what you want and die
-Time keeps passing by
