This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I remember when you seemed real shiny with the sweat of your voice
Shaky hands super load and teenage mouth
We were all charmed and taken by your talk
Now I shudder when I hear the rhythm of your walk
Now I've got no place to go I've got no place to go
I've got no one nowhere no one
I have given up on the sparkle that I saw in your eyes
I have sinned the sin of wanting more
The belly fire pulls the spirit from the corporate whore
I'm embarrassed by the plaid you wear
If I were you I'd hide behind that stupid bleach blond hair
Now I've got no place to go, I've got no place to go
I've got no one, nowhere, no one
I have given up on the sparkle that I saw in you
Yeah, that simple minded sparkle that I thought I saw
Yes, I have wondered why you changed
I like it when you were super loud
I have wondered why you changed
I like it when you were super loud
Now I've got nowhere to go, I've got no place to go
I've got no one, nowhere, no one
Now I've got no place to go, I've got no place to go
I've got no one, nowhere, no one
I wonder if you're giving in, tell me why you're giving in
Tell me why you're giving in
Shaky hands super load and teenage mouth
We were all charmed and taken by your talk
Now I shudder when I hear the rhythm of your walk
Now I've got no place to go I've got no place to go
I've got no one nowhere no one
I have given up on the sparkle that I saw in your eyes
I have sinned the sin of wanting more
The belly fire pulls the spirit from the corporate whore
I'm embarrassed by the plaid you wear
If I were you I'd hide behind that stupid bleach blond hair
Now I've got no place to go, I've got no place to go
I've got no one, nowhere, no one
I have given up on the sparkle that I saw in you
Yeah, that simple minded sparkle that I thought I saw
Yes, I have wondered why you changed
I like it when you were super loud
I have wondered why you changed
I like it when you were super loud
Now I've got nowhere to go, I've got no place to go
I've got no one, nowhere, no one
Now I've got no place to go, I've got no place to go
I've got no one, nowhere, no one
I wonder if you're giving in, tell me why you're giving in
Tell me why you're giving in

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."

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.
its about a chick that is changing and growing apart from him. great great song
He shacked up with a girl who was all sparkle and no substance. At first, she was exciting and novel, but beneath all that she's an immature, annoying person. She didn't change, but his estimation of her did.
I've read that this song is about Kurt Cobain and people compairing Art to Kurt. Seems like kind of a pissed off remark at Kurt selling out, and it really makes sense. :)
"The belly fire pulls the spirit from the corporate whore I'm embarrassed by the plaid you wear If I were you I'd hide behind that stupid bleach blonde hair "
I can't see why anyone would compare Art to Cobain.
Hasn't Art got stupid bleach blonde hair? Maybe its about him.
at first it sounds like its about a a girl but i think its about a band "selling out." i dont think its about kurt cobain cuz i dont see how hes a sellout.
This song is about Kurt Cobain. When Everclear was first showing up, there was a lot of talk about Art being the "new Kurt Cobain." The music had a similar grungy sound. Art wasn't happy about this, because he felt that Nirvana was sell-outs. Also, I'm sure Art had some issues with Kurt's drug use, considering Art's history. As for the song itself, it shows in most of the lines:
"I remember when you seemed real shiny with the sweat of your voice Shaky hands super loud and teenage mouth" "The belly fire pulls the spirit from the corporate whore I'm embarrassed by the plaid you wear If I were you I'd hide behind that stupid bleach blonde hair"
These parts describe Kurt. He had the blonde hair, he yelled, he was young, and he wore the definitive grunge clothing: plaid shirt, tied around the waist.
"Now I've got no place to go, I've got no place to go I've got no one, nowhere, no one"
These lines are about how this was how Art was always described, and how it seemed like that was all he ever heard.
Anyone who plays guitar probably loves this song, because it's so much fun to play.
i dont see how anyone would think its about kurt cobain just because it refrences wearing plaid and bleached blonde hair :-\ seems like its about a girl that he saw as wonderful at first but that faded as time went by.
Cobain or not, how could this song possibly be about any band 'selling out'. For god sake, Everclear did a Gap commercial. In every interview I've ever seen, they all seem to be enjoying their success. Technically if a band has ever sold you anything they have 'sold out' and Art knows this. So point that fucking finger up your ass.
