Lyrics

Always known for trouble

Always associated with trouble

Always known for pain

Always associated with pain

In this life that leads you through the rubble

Life leading through challenges and destruction

And you're never quite the same

Changed by experiences, never the same

Alcohol in a cheap motel room

Alcohol as a coping mechanism in a cheap motel

Just a poor man's novocaine

Alcohol serving as a poor man's relief

Haunted by your damn rosewater perfume

Haunted by memories represented by rosewater perfume

And stalked by the cold winter rain

Persistently pursued by cold winter rain

I know you look toward the stars above

Turning to the stars for solace when love is depleted

When you're all out of love

Seeking empathy or care from others

High above the clouds you make your stand

Making a stand above life's challenges

Does anybody give a damn?

Questioning if anyone cares about the struggle

There's no forgiveness if there's still blood

No absolution as long as there's lingering conflict

And darkness ain't thwarted by flood

Darkness persists despite attempts to overcome

I'll be here waiting down on the strand

Offering support and waiting for resolution

If you're looking for a safe place to land

Providing a safe haven for someone in need

Always known for certain

Consistently known for being reliable

Always known to be true

Consistently known for being truthful

Flower lips, finger tips close the curtains

Sensory details of closing oneself off from the world

And you wish to be anyone but you

Desiring to escape one's own identity

You only cry when you're on your own

Crying only when alone

But when you cry you cry for so damn long

Extended periods of intense crying

We'll be nowhere in no time

Emphasizing the speed of losing track

Let's go there, get so high

Invitation to escape reality together

There's snow on our shoes now

Symbolism of shared experiences represented by snow on shoes

I know you look toward the stars above

Turning to the stars for solace when love is depleted

When you're all out of love

Seeking empathy or care from others

High above the clouds you make your stand

Making a stand above life's challenges

Does anybody give a damn?

Questioning if anyone cares about the struggle

There's no forgiveness if there's still blood

No absolution as long as there's lingering conflict

And darkness ain't thwarted by flood

Darkness persists despite attempts to overcome

I'll be here waiting down on the strand

Offering support and waiting for resolution

If you're looking for a safe place to land

Providing a safe haven for someone in need

I know you look toward the stars above

Turning to the stars for solace when love is depleted

When you're all out of love

Seeking empathy or care from others

High above the clouds you make your stand

Making a stand above life's challenges

Does anybody give a damn?

Questioning if anyone cares about the struggle

There's no forgiveness if there's still blood

No absolution as long as there's lingering conflict

And darkness ain't thwarted by flood

Darkness persists despite attempts to overcome

I'll be here waiting down on the strand

Offering support and waiting for resolution

If you're looking for a safe place to land

Providing a safe haven for someone in need
