The Stain

The Haunted

There is no real way out, no I'm still in here fighting
I've never been losing forever, destroying myself in spite
Grid my teeth
Breaking myself
I nurtured a snake

So keep your misery and well-put sympathies
I am not your alibi (I am not the one)
God knows I loved you so
There's nothing left

Here take it all, I'm so disgusted I can't take no more
Keep it all - good fucking riddance
I hate myself just fine alone
I know how to hold my own
I gave you my all

So keep your misery and well-put sympathies
I am not your alibi (I am nit the one)
God knows I loved you so
There's nothing left

With everything you said
Every time you lied
Every single step
I knew you'd come around and show me who you are
Leave me with the scars
I've been waiting for you

With every single lie
The stains you left behind
I'll never close my eyes again

You're nothing
I am not your alibi
God knows I loved you so
There's nothing...

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
