Song lyrics
Hey will you stay awhile
My smile will not mislead you
Cause I've been alone
And my faith turned to stone
Still there's something in you
I believe in

Close to your peers
I go wild and fierce
Still I let you be
I feel you next to me
Cause inside I feel
A wind that starts to blow
I'm taken in your undertow
Everything is fine...
But I'm lonely all the time

All I want to do is be there
For the things that you're going through
Is it good for you, is it good for you
You haunt my nights when
I don't know where my life should go
Is it good for you, is it good for you

Hey child please stay awhile
My smile will not mislead you
Cause I've been without
I know I'm with doubt
I grab at you
I can't stop grabbing at you
Cause I feel you cross my mind in disarray,
Intoxicated ricochet
There's nothing wrong
Just don't take too long

All I want to do is be there
For the things that youre going through
Is it good for you, is it good for you
Cause you haunt my nights when,
I don't know where my life should go
Is it good for you

To understand lyrics is not truly to know the feeling they relate, but yes, identifying with them is required to a certain degree. Having listened to many genres of music, and finding myself liking the majority, my life would be some abstract resemblance of a soap opera scripted by Picasso himself if i actually lived all the songs i understood.
I particularly enjoy the lines "I grab at you... I can`t stop grabbing at you." The way he sings them is performed with so much feeling that it seems that even if sung in a monotone, they would still remain somehow emphasized.

This song was totally about me when my ex broke up with me. All the lyrics are absolutely perfect.

"Cause I've been alone
And my faith turned to stone
Still there's something in you
I believe in
"

I knew he was bad for me, and our relationship was over, yet I still thought there was something there.

"Cause inside I feel
A wind that starts to blow
I'm taken in your undertow
Everything is fine...
But I'm lonely all the time
"

Everytime I was near him, his smell just made me want to jump back into something

"All I want to do is be there
For the things that you're going through
"

At that time we were teens, so it was always parent stuggles

"You haunt my nights when
I don't know where my life should go
"

He haunted my nights, my days, my music, my life. He still does sometimes

"I grab at you
I can't stop grabbing at you
Cause I feel you cross my mind in disarray,
Intoxicated ricochet
"

That pretty much sums up our entire relationship

to me, this songs represents the longing and frustration of something that you know is there, but can't quite pull out. it's odd and exciting how certain songs pertain to even the most intimate details of your life.

I agree with heidiskye. This song just describes everything that I felt when I liked my friend and knew he liked me too...we were just too afraid that something would happen if either of us admitted it.

In the end we waited too long, and afterwords realized the feeling was mutual, but by that time the whole friendship had just been torn apart by not saying anything.
