Anthemic rock song about allegience to a person, dedication to a goal. |
CD: LOVE RiOT No. 5
Label: Deck Party Music
Credits: Lisa Mathews |
Story Behind the Song
This song is somewhat biographical for the band, and mirrors our undying dedication to the music. Like the other songs on LR No. 5, Standing By You finds the band expanding the sound palette to fit the song more than ever. This song features a wonderfully rich and twangy guitar which takes it to another level. Recorded at Invisible Sound, Baltimore, MD
Lyrics
You opened a door and whispered to me.
I've heard this before, it never brought peace.
I've been waitin', waitin', waitin' so long...
I can't understand just what I've done wrong.
I still believe that we've got what it takes
but God only knows why we don't get that break.
It's the same as it ever was...it's the same as it ever was.
I'm Standing By You.
Tired refugees go into the night
looking for one prize worth a good fight.
We've been workin', workin', workin' so hard...
it just ain't enough to be pretty and smart.
I still believe that we've got what it takes
but God only knows why we don't get that break.
It's the same as it ever was...it's the same as it ever was.
I'm Standing By You.
Floating like life rafts we sing in the rain
there's a laugh and a half, dear, keeping us sane.
We've been thinkin', thinkin', thinkin' so much...
it's just what we've done that's kept us in touch.
