Cover art for Maver lyrics by Stone Temple Pilots

i read alot of reviews on Stone Temple Pilot's new self titled album before it was released hoping to be able to grasp any bit of information on the new album..... i remember reading that scott was trying to break away from his "self-obsessed" writing and try to become more of a story teller... this is one of those songs they were talking about where he tells about story... ^^^ pretty much sums it up

Agreed. Although, I'd like to point out the title of song. If you notice, Maver is short for Maverick. According to Oxford dictionary, Maverick is "An unothodox or independent-minded person". So it's the story of a free-spirited girl moving to the big city to strike it big. Except life always has an unexpected bend down the road. Kind of a somber tale. Weiland always had a country streak. (Creep, anybody?) he just rarely shows it. A beautiful song IMO

yeah scott weiland also signed a country artist to his label softdrive records after hearing a country musician that he really liked... so i def agree scott has a little taste for country
