This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Always have, always will
I was mesmerized when I first met you
Wouldn't let myself believe
That you could step right out of my wildest dreams
But you didn't know
That secret part of me
Until we kissed an made it open up so easily
I always have
Even when it didn't show
I always will
You know that I just want to touch you
Whenever you're close to me
I always have
Doesn't matter where we go
I always will
You know that I just want to show you
Just how much you mean to me
Always have, always will
Everything that you give in to
Everyting you'll ever need
Is locked up somewhere deep inside of me
You gotta know
But more importantly
You've got to stay and hold me while we live this fantasy
I always have
Even when it didn't show
I always will
You know that I just want to touch you
Whenever you're close to me
I always have
Doesn't matter where we go
I always will
You know that I just want to show you
Just how much you mean to me
Sometimes we try too hard to please
We should let love come naturally
And sometimes I don't know
Just what you really do to me
That is O.K.
'cause it's all part of the mystery
I always have
Even when it didn't show
I always will
You know that I just want to touch you
Whenever you're close to me
I always have
Doesn't matter where we go
I always will
You know that I just want to show you
Just how much you mean to me
Always have, always will
I always have
Even when it didn't show
I always will
You know that I just want to touch you
Whenever you're close to me
I always have
Doesn't matter where we go
I always will
You know that I just want to show you
Just how much you mean to me
Always have, always will

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."
