Okay, I found the song, its called Sunset on High Street.
As far as I can tell it’s about drugs/ drug use. “Bet your bottom dollar,it won’t last that long,” the feeling you get from using this drug, the high, it wont last long, then you’ll be left feeling hopeless outside looking for another hit. “Shedding like a flower,” is metaphor for the degenerative effects of drug use on the mind, body and soul or it could be a metaphor for the shakes you get when you need a next hit.
“Honey on your breathe,” is a metaphor for drugs, that sweet additive nectar that’s got you hooked. “God knows how far you’ll go,” only God knows what your capable of doing to score another hit, this generally means your capable of anything.
“Others tried to love you,” someone tried to show you love but you didn’t think you were worth it so you chose drugs instead. “Claiming the free pass,’ you took the easy way out, instead of facing your problems you tried to numb them. The cobwebs consume the postal codes lost me, sorry, unless it means being lost since postal codes are used for addresses and cobwebs can conceal things.
“Wading through eternity,” your wandering in a daze, “for the next clean dream,” is probably talking about getting clean or trying to go cold turkey, which is why it feels like “it’s 81 degrees,” you have the chills from the drugs trying to leave your system.
‘Now you’re crawling back to me,” your clean and you wanna go back home but “it’s too late, it’s too late,” too mush has happened because of your addiction so you can’t go back its“the price we pay.”
And the last two verse mention skidrow and poverty so now your homeless and jobless with no place to go and its because of your addiction, which is how some people end up on the streets.
This is my interpretation of the lyrics, I could be wrong but this is what I got from it.
