This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Tell me, dear,
Is there anything you'd like to hear?
One last song before we disappear?
Some broken hearted ballad
Built for two.
By the way, it seems my notebooks have been misplaced
Those scribbled poetries of yesterday
They've no more effect on me,
Those dead feelings
The songs we don't sing are the hardest to hear.
Words left unsaid, words we wish we'd forget.
The guilt slips from our lips,
Confessions hidden behind eyelids.
Would you look me in the eye and tell me
Does the moon weep at dawn?
His brilliance exposed
By a fierce and burning sun.
The songs we don't sing we don't want to hear.
Words left unsaid well, they're only words
We lick the guilt form our lips,
We make confessions from fertile hips
And never look them in the eye.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
I love this song. It reminds me of things so personal. Like someone that you cared alot about (a past love) You think about that person all the time.... and how you want to tell them what you feel. The only excuse you have to really talk to that person is on their birthday when you simply wish them a happy birthday... but its really so much more. All of your feelings and emotions that you can't express in that simple birthday greeting. Regrets and questions, thoughts and feelings are all chopped down to 2 words. I think that's what this song is about. I love how he says "well, happy birthday anyway."
it seems like this band's lyrics have many different meanings...i have trouble understanding sometimes but i like them.
He's writing this song to a former lover. The relationship went bad, obviously. But, he still has feelings for her - so, happy birthday anyway.

this is possibly the most beautiful song i've ever heard, both lyric and music wise. tim's live version is also incredible. brings me to tears.
tim is definitely my hero.
i think it's about his daughter...just a thought

Corrections: "...cry when winter's hands, stole you..." and "...nothing but a hole, you...". Anyways, I think this song is definitely related to maternity and birth (swallowed out into the light, didn't want to cut the cord, etc..). I'm not exactly sure who's perspective it's sung from, but a lot of seems like it's sung by a mother to her child. The last four lines seem like the opposite, perhaps.
coldwind: thanks, I made the changes...
