Under The Stars

I'm first out on this song appearently!

I think this song is about a person "rehabbing someone" from drugs or something else that's bad. A lot of lines point to the fact that he or she is helping someone: "I'm gonna set your soul Alight"

and

"To the breaking of the day In the morning you'll decay A little"

People that go to rehab often say that it's the hardest in the morning, because that's usually when you used to take your first dose of drugs.

"We've let a lifetime come undone Staring straight into the sun Like the barrel of a gun Under the stars"

It says that they've been wrong for a long time (doing drugs) and that's it's really dangerous and a near death-experience (staring straight into the sun, the barrel of a gun).

"Been waiting my whole life For you to come and waste a while In the dark In the emptiness of time and space"

I don't really understand this but I think it could be that you've been waiting for a while for this person to take the step and actually stop using drugs.

"Been going out my mind I gotta bring you back To life You and your heart You and your healthy heart"

This is the part that really points out that someone is helping another person over his drug addictions, 'gotta bring you back to life' and also that although the person used drugs, he's still got a healthy heart.

"You know you look so tired You're gonna stay up late Tonight Under the stars"

That someone looks tired and worn-out from the drugs, and that you'll probably have a fucked up sleeping schedule that makes you stay up late.

I think Under The Stars is a fictional place and that the person who wrote it only pictures this in their head, it's not going to happen for real because the person that's using drugs doesn't want to get help or is just simply too far down the wrong road to get help.
