Cover art for Happy Endings lyrics by Something For Kate

i love the chorus of this song, it's full of passion & it just begs to be sung along with.

i agree with the above meanings totally, but in my current situation this songs speaks to me of persistance, & the trials of persisting with things even though you know what may result (having been "down a road before"). continuing, trying to convince yourself that the result this time might be different, despite the past mistakes and outcomes - striving for happy endings.

obviously the above meanings are more accurate, but that's just what i personally get out of it.
