Artist: David Archuleta Record Label: JIVE/19 Album: The Other Side of Down Song: Stomping The Roses Track #: 4 Capo: 1st Fret Intro: (x4) Wasting time just going mindless watching your charades. When you were younger did it occur to you Ten years from then you’d act the same age? I cannot carry on this way although I’ve carried on your every little thing. Carry me away. Chorus: Did you feel like stomping the roses? Smashing down all the feeling inside of them is bad business. The way you’re stomping the roses. I was flipping channels on my television and it made me feel unwell. One of those complicated soap operas I almost felt like I was watching myself. I cannot carry on this way although I’ve carried on your every little thing. Carry me away. Chorus: Did you feel like stomping the roses? Smashing down all the feeling inside of them is bad business. The way you’re stomping the roses everyone knows it. And I know I know I know I know it’s over and I I know I know I know Always been your token nice guy. I know I know I know And I know that you rule your whole world. I thought I could live in it but I just can’t. You know you’re stomping the roses. Smashing down all the feeling inside of them is bad business. The way you’re stomping the roses everyone knows it. Stomping the roses Smashing down all the feeling inside of them is bad business. The way you’re stomping the roses. (x4)

La chanson évoque le malaise ressenti face à une relation qui semble stagner dans une dynamique peu saine. L’artiste exprime son désespoir et son incapacité à continuer ainsi, observant les comportements répétitifs d’une autre personne, comme si le temps ne faisait que figer la situation. Il évoque des sentiments de frustration, comme si toutes les émotions étaient écrasées et négligées, tout en reconnaissant qu’il a toujours été celui qui supporte les choix de l’autre. Le contexte semble être celui d’un amour sans issue, où l’illusion de bonheur est brisée par la réalité amère de comportements destructeurs. Cette référence à « piétiner les roses » symbolise le fait de détruire le potentiel de beauté et d’épanouissement dans la relation, tout en réfléchissant à la nécessité de se libérer de ce cycle infini.
