The song is based on a real event. Blake’s (Bassist) brother (Justin) was driving in the pouring rain when he noticed a kid in his work uniform walking beside the road. Feeling like he should help the kid out, Justin offered him a ride. The kid said yes and jumped in the car to get out of the weather. Justin made small talk with the passenger and even stopped at a gas station to get him a coffee. The kid said he was headed to work, so Justin then proceeded to take him to his workplace. As the kid stepped out of the car, he pulled a gun. Justin was startled as the kid said, “I was going to kill myself in the bathroom stall at work, but you giving me a ride completely changed my outlook on things. Thanks man.” The kid shut the door and walked away.
So the moral of this real event is, you never know the impact you can have on someone’s life on any given day. Treating people with kindness can literally save their life.
Lyrics:
He was walking alone
Lookin’ for a place to hide
Between the rain and his troubles
He couldn’t stay dry
Searchin’ for a break
Like the one in his soul
It’s somewhere out there
Or so he’s been told
Some days you wake up
And thought for sure you’d die
You try to make up
But can’t figure why
The sun won’t shine
I don’t know, You don’t know
What’s been knockin’ outside your door
Take it from me, then maybe you’ll see
You ain’t gotta take it anymore
So I pulled on over Introduced myself
Said he needed a ride
And I was happy to help
He said he’d never had
That many friends
But the one’s he had
He’ll never see again
As he walked away
He pulled his daddy’s gun
Said he was gonna end it all
But since he hitched a ride
It didn’t seem like much fun
To end it in a bathroom stall
Every little thing gonna be alright #suicideawarness #mentalhealth #Testarossa
