I remember when I first heard this song before American Paradox came out.....I was really upset that it didn't make it to the album, but the song still remained in my top 5 favs by Strung Out. The harmonies and simplicity of the chorus always hit a note with me that was hard to let go. I have to agree with BoyAfraid's interpretation of this song. If not direct suicide by checking out, maybe indirectly by chemical or alcohol overdose. If you've ever been in a run down, wrong side of town lost motel....you're usually not there for business or pleasure. You're there because you need a wake up call to change your life around. But like mentioned before, a very good metaphor.
