@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Someday stays in my own way
With magic so tragic and still lacking in taste
And I know the tables set right
You look beautiful, you've set me up twice
And so your style is outdated
In search of the perfect and embarrassingly fatal
Ungodly gorgeous
Buried in a chorus so I'll be forever be brutal
And slender like a saint
Riding upright and riding late
Straight through somewhere everything's
Unused, unlike you
This is why I still sleep in the air
My armor plated car
That crashed straight into your thighs
You threw up my best skin
Cause you never loved it (I never loved it)
You threw up my best skin
Cause you never loved it (I never loved it)
And someday stays locked in my safe
While plastic arms carry you away
And I know this never happened,
We never happened, you never...
Why do you float way up there?
In disguise in dirty air
Why don't you melt way down here
With heaven so far and hell so near
This is why I still sleep in the air
My armor plated car
That crashed straight into your thighs
You threw up my best skin
Cause you never loved it (I never loved it)
You threw up my best skin
Cause you never loved it (I never loved it)
You threw up my best skin
Cause you never loved it...
You threw up my best skin
Cause you never loved it...
I guess it's that bad
I guess it's that bad
I guess it's that bad
I guess it's that bad
And I will never understand
Love of the roses that grow for you
But I know they keep on dying,
They always keep on dying
"I don't care about you now you're not alive"
With magic so tragic and still lacking in taste
And I know the tables set right
You look beautiful, you've set me up twice
And so your style is outdated
In search of the perfect and embarrassingly fatal
Ungodly gorgeous
Buried in a chorus so I'll be forever be brutal
And slender like a saint
Riding upright and riding late
Straight through somewhere everything's
Unused, unlike you
This is why I still sleep in the air
My armor plated car
That crashed straight into your thighs
You threw up my best skin
Cause you never loved it (I never loved it)
You threw up my best skin
Cause you never loved it (I never loved it)
And someday stays locked in my safe
While plastic arms carry you away
And I know this never happened,
We never happened, you never...
Why do you float way up there?
In disguise in dirty air
Why don't you melt way down here
With heaven so far and hell so near
This is why I still sleep in the air
My armor plated car
That crashed straight into your thighs
You threw up my best skin
Cause you never loved it (I never loved it)
You threw up my best skin
Cause you never loved it (I never loved it)
You threw up my best skin
Cause you never loved it...
You threw up my best skin
Cause you never loved it...
I guess it's that bad
I guess it's that bad
I guess it's that bad
I guess it's that bad
And I will never understand
Love of the roses that grow for you
But I know they keep on dying,
They always keep on dying
"I don't care about you now you're not alive"

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."
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

this is so my favorite song ever.
Yeah I agree with you x your star x. This song definitely makes the list of my favorite songs. I think the meaning is pretty straightforward.
this is def my favorite song i think im obsessed with it it rocks hardcore
I love this song, it is so great. I think it is probably my favorite song on this album. Northstar overall is an amazing band with much talent.
And I will never understand Love of the roses that grow for you But I know they keep on dying, They always keep on dying
Is that bitterness?
it's just so fucking beautiful
" i dont about you know you now your not alive" i think is a reference to the fact that his love is a rose and the rose died, so in essence she died, their love died. I think this is my favorite Northstar song. amazing live
once i see northstar live, my life will be complete, no joke
this is one of the greatest songs ever.
im right there with you,foolingdestiny..
riding upright but riding late.
ahhhhhhh too bad they broke up.
