This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I can't leave with words like these
They'll break the bones that hold up my sleeves
I've got to tie her so high her breath freezes before she speaks
But this bus just won't go far enough
So I'll strap my face to a homemade bomb
And blow the bus stop through the parking lot
We'll celebrate like we were free
I know a place where we can both get laced
Take some time to learn about your face
About bawling and bell curves, about strength from inhalers
And I'll take the fifth and you can just sit
And I'll watch from a distance while you open it
This is how I will keep her in pieces, she's a keeper
And I'll be holding my breath with the best
My breath with the best intentions
This is not for me, your perfume struggles perfectly
It wraps around and screams at me
"My hero tastes like plastic, he's elastic and now he's dead"
My straight-faced grin is the first to leave
Hand in hand with the queen of tragedy
Why do I hurt just on purpose?
I guess I lack a purpose
So smile like a child sitting in the sea
Forget about what's in the water and just focus in on me
'll be the phantom of the opera
I'll be the lantern you blow out first
And I'll be holding my breath with the best
My breath with the best intentions
This is not for me, your perfume struggles perfectly
It wraps around and screams at me
"My hero tastes like plastic, he's elastic and now he's dead"
And I'll be the reason you'll leave this city
This is not for me, your perfume struggles perfectly
It wraps around and screams at me
"My hero tastes like plastic, he's elastic and now he's dead"
They'll break the bones that hold up my sleeves
I've got to tie her so high her breath freezes before she speaks
But this bus just won't go far enough
So I'll strap my face to a homemade bomb
And blow the bus stop through the parking lot
We'll celebrate like we were free
I know a place where we can both get laced
Take some time to learn about your face
About bawling and bell curves, about strength from inhalers
And I'll take the fifth and you can just sit
And I'll watch from a distance while you open it
This is how I will keep her in pieces, she's a keeper
And I'll be holding my breath with the best
My breath with the best intentions
This is not for me, your perfume struggles perfectly
It wraps around and screams at me
"My hero tastes like plastic, he's elastic and now he's dead"
My straight-faced grin is the first to leave
Hand in hand with the queen of tragedy
Why do I hurt just on purpose?
I guess I lack a purpose
So smile like a child sitting in the sea
Forget about what's in the water and just focus in on me
'll be the phantom of the opera
I'll be the lantern you blow out first
And I'll be holding my breath with the best
My breath with the best intentions
This is not for me, your perfume struggles perfectly
It wraps around and screams at me
"My hero tastes like plastic, he's elastic and now he's dead"
And I'll be the reason you'll leave this city
This is not for me, your perfume struggles perfectly
It wraps around and screams at me
"My hero tastes like plastic, he's elastic and now he's dead"

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."

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
To me, it seems like hes questioning possibly drug abuse. And that either hes bringing someone else into it or trying to get them out of it.. quiet possibly himself.. Seems to be sort of a drug theme to alot of their songs...
