In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
In an earthquake, in main space
Where I fell into you
In a starlight, you look so bright
You eclipse the moon
On a highway, just today
That's where I saw you
It was music from a distance
Burning proof
She's here to rescue me
Clear my mind, and set me free
If it's dark, she still shines
A masterpiece made by design
She's here to rescue me
Stain my mind with make believe
If it's dark, she still shines
She's my lady, so divine
Lady so divine, come and change my name
Lady so divine
When the waves break, and the soul shake
Wreckage from the night
On a mountain is a story
Told a thousand times
Of a garden, and a bed there
Made to rest our eyes
There's a comfort to a softness
That will not be here tonight
She's here to rescue me
Clear my mind, and set me free
If it's dark, she still shines
A masterpiece made by design
She's here to rescue me
Stain my mind with make believe
If it's dark, she still shines
She's my lady, so divine
Lady so divine, come and change my name
Lady so divine
The midnight sun, she saves me
From what I've become
The midnight sun, she saves me
From what I have done
What I have done
She's here to rescue me
Clear my mind, and set me free
If it's dark, she still shines
A masterpiece made by design
She's come to rescue me
Stain my mind with make believe
If it's dark, she still shines
She's my lady, so divine
Divine!
Divine!
Divine!
She's my lady so divine
Divine!
She's my lady so divine
Lady so divine, come and change my mind
Lady so divine
Where I fell into you
In a starlight, you look so bright
You eclipse the moon
On a highway, just today
That's where I saw you
It was music from a distance
Burning proof
She's here to rescue me
Clear my mind, and set me free
If it's dark, she still shines
A masterpiece made by design
She's here to rescue me
Stain my mind with make believe
If it's dark, she still shines
She's my lady, so divine
Lady so divine, come and change my name
Lady so divine
When the waves break, and the soul shake
Wreckage from the night
On a mountain is a story
Told a thousand times
Of a garden, and a bed there
Made to rest our eyes
There's a comfort to a softness
That will not be here tonight
She's here to rescue me
Clear my mind, and set me free
If it's dark, she still shines
A masterpiece made by design
She's here to rescue me
Stain my mind with make believe
If it's dark, she still shines
She's my lady, so divine
Lady so divine, come and change my name
Lady so divine
The midnight sun, she saves me
From what I've become
The midnight sun, she saves me
From what I have done
What I have done
She's here to rescue me
Clear my mind, and set me free
If it's dark, she still shines
A masterpiece made by design
She's come to rescue me
Stain my mind with make believe
If it's dark, she still shines
She's my lady, so divine
Divine!
Divine!
Divine!
She's my lady so divine
Divine!
She's my lady so divine
Lady so divine, come and change my mind
Lady so divine

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
How does this song have no comments??? This was one of the best songs on the album, not to mention by far the best guitar on the entire album, the solo is beautiful, helps portray exactly what they wanted you to feel... love it...
Stain my mind with make believe?
lady so devine Lady So Devine LSD
The entire song is about and addiction to LSD and the guitar solo represents the "trip".
Interesting take on it... I would have never seen it that way. Thanks!
@mpude715 I know a lot of Shinedown's song represent drugs and I knew this song had a deeper meaning, like all of their songs, but I couldn't quite pin it on the nose, until I read your comment. Well done. I agree! Makes sense now.
I agree the guitar solo is amazing. This song is brilliant. Shinedown are one of the best bands .EVER.
i think this song is about a guy whos kinda in a downward spiral with his life, whether it be drugs or whatever. He thinks his life sucks, but then he meets a girl who is everything he ever wanted and saves him from what he was and what he was becoming
i think this is the best song on the album. the whole song, especially the bridge is absolutely stellar!
This is a fucking awesome song
I agree with PearlJamRules
I think it's about him feeling totally helpless and then everything becomes so overwhelming for him, then he meets a woman who changes everything. She makes everything right and puts everything in perspective for him and shows him that everything isn't too bad...E.G: "The midnight sun, she saves me From what I’ve become The midnight sun, she saves me From what I have done What I have done"
This song is completely awesome. Obviously the girl is everything to him. He's going down the wrong path, and he hears her voice calling him back. The music in this song is phenomenal!
i think its about the guitarist's (jason todd) wife. because of the amazing, soulful, and mood creating guitar solo that jason rips out. i just figured if jason put so much work into it, it prolly means a lot to him. SHINEDOWN RULES!!!
Going to have to agree with mpude715. I have always taken Lady So Divine to be about LSD and not a person.
