What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
The kids are loud, the house it stinks
2
He cracks a beer and pours another drink
3
Says he needs some time to think
4
Hindsight askewed, today's the day
5
She'll be home soon, the kids'll be okay
6
He finds the keys and drives away
7
The barroom reeks a golden stench
8
Assume your place upon the weary bench
9
You take the hit, don't even flinch
10
And the ghosts of friends who've moved along
11
Can still be felt but they don't sing along
12
To your stubborn, stupid song
13
You've been pretending loss could be your gain
14
But in the end you're just as lame
15
Now where have you been? You've been in the down town again
16
And it's the same old thing:
17
The flailing fall, the flake and wallow, forsaking friends
18
And where have you gone? 'Cause you been gone so damn long.
19
Okay, what's wrong,
20
Are you the only one to have ever once felt strong and then lost where you belong?
21
Some buffer for the years ahead
22
Means nothing if you're living dead
23
Now where have you gone?
24
Your thoughts are dulled, her words are sharp
25
Your memory's stained, you make the disconnect between the heart and brain
26
You figured loss could be your gain
27
You read the contract and you signed your name
28
Said goodbye and walked away
29
You figured loss could be your gain
30
In some fickle lease that's paid in shame
31
But in the end you're just as lame
32
In sad attempts to pluck some gem
33
From down below and deep within
34
With hazy eyes and sallow skin you wait to find just
35
Now where have you been? You've been in the down town again
36
And it's the same old thing:
37
The flailing fall, the flake and wallow, forsaking friends
38
And where have you gone? 'Cause you been gone so damn long.
39
Okay, what's wrong,
40
Are you the only one to have ever once felt strong and then lost where you belong?
41
And what have you seen? Was it all that you had ever dreamed?
42
Is there beauty to be dredged and skimmed in filthy nets
43
And lifted from these beery depths?
44
To be dragged and strewn upon the shore or simply scraped up off the floor
45
Attested to through glass-bottom eyes soft and sad and sore
46
Where have you been?
