Discover the story of the song > Shakey Ground – Fishbone

The protagonist is very sad because his girlfriend left him, and he feels like he's on unstable ground because everything in his life is going wrong since she left. He's even lost his car and is struggling to cope with his emotions. He asks his ex-girlfriend to help him before he drowns in sadness. The lyrics repeat the idea that the protagonist is standing on shaky ground since his girlfriend left him.
