You should've told me there were vows to be broken
And lies to be spoken before you ever made out with me
I could've countered with a stone cold demeanor
A six pack of Zima, to wash all of the lipstick away
I now I've come to curse the day that upon your bed I laid
What's wrong? Did I linger to long?
Or did you listen to your father that we didn't belong?
(Every rain cloud has a silver lining
There's a sun that's shining
On the other side of the world
Somewhere someplace there are children laughing
Oh I know, it's baffling, boy)
Hold me close and smother me
(But it's not dangerous to hold my hand)
Sleep with me inside a cold mahogany grave
(It's not a curse, a little understanding)
Cheat on me. Lay siege on me
(And I have half a mind to fall apart
But the other half)
Watch you freak my roommates in a shower of
(Is ready to start again)
I had to watch you be the flirt at the party
Your hands all over hotties, you let a boy brush hair from your face
And now you've gone and lost your leopard print bikini
I know that it was teeny but it's not the kind of thing you misplace
And then I opened up your purse and only made the whole thing worse
Don't cry those are lies in your eyes
And my best friend saw you danglin' from the lips of a guy
(Every rain cloud has a silver lining
There's a sun that's shining
On the other side of the world
Somewhere someplace there are children laughing
Oh I know, it's baffling, boy)
Hold me close and smother me
(But it's not dangerous to hold my hand)
Sleep with me inside a cold mahogany grave
(It's not a curse, a little understanding)
Cheat on me. Lay siege on me
(And I have half a mind to fall apart
But the other half)
Watch you freak my roommates in a shower of
(Is ready to start again)
You can't run forever, Nikki, that's a fact of life
You've gotta stop and have a cigarette, and do it with the wife
So don't get jealous. Don't get sloppy. Tie your dreams up in a bag
Paste a smile upon your face. Take a drag upon your fag.
(If it could all be right
Then I'd have not of found about you last night
We have to get it right
Before the walls fall down and don't fight. Let's fight)
(Every rain cloud has a silver lining
There's a sun that's shining
On the other side of the world
Somewhere someplace there are children laughing
Oh I know, it's baffling, boy)
Hold me close and smother me
(But it's not dangerous to hold my hand)
Sleep with me inside a cold mahogany grave
(It's not a curse, a little understanding)
Cheat on me. Lay siege on me
(And I have half a mind to fall apart
But the other half)
Watch you freak my roommates in a shower of lace
(Is ready to start again)
Hold me close and smother me
(Every rain cloud has a silver lining
There's a sun that's shining)
Sleep with me inside a cold mahogany grave
(On the other side of the world)
Cheat on me so Seizurely
(Somewhere someplace there are children laughing)
Watch you freak my roommates in a shower of lace
(Oh I know, it's baffling, boy
But it's not dangerous to hold my hand)
Sleep with me inside a cold mahogany grave
(It's not a curse, a little understanding
And I have half a mind to fall apart
But the other half)
Watch you freak my roommates in a shower of
(Is ready to start again)

Mountain Song
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."

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
