Cut me up today
I should've stood in your way
You lied
And everywhere a dream
Nothing came between
I died
Give me away
I will not be for you
God comes down
Never gonna be the same

Never gonna be the same
Never gonna be the same
And if you want water
And if you want food

And if you want shelter
I can not come over to you
And if you want love now
Or a needle and a spoon

You gotta show a little faith in me
Now baby I can't come over to you
It's never gonna be the same
Never gonna be the same

God come down
And if you want hard out
Sittin' by the bay
Well the sun went down tomorrow

It will not come up today
And if you want love now
And wrapped your arms so cruel
If there's a god,it's me now baby

I can not come over to you
It's never gonna be the same
She drew me in anyway
She lied

You gotta show a little faith
Your old run across your name
What goes up must go down down down
God and if I wanted fame now

Or the glory of the womb
And if I want my name emblazed on every light a new
And if I wanted Christ
Or a messiah by my side

I can't believe in anything
I know that mary lied
Sent you up today
Could've got in your way

Oh mary lied
Do you know
Can you feel it
Do you feel me

Yeah
And if you wanted madness
If you want what's pure
Well you gotta come over to me

Baby my life doesn't reach to you
And if you want love so
Unconditional and real
You gotta ride that black horse baby

Through the depths of hell that I've been
Follow me away yeah
I will be the same
Strongest one to name

Through the valley of life
I'm gonna be the same
Goodnight goodnight goodnight
Oh never be the same

    i drew a halo around stevie nicks head. adam and eve. the tunnel--yes! i'm going all the way through it baby blue! "take your silver spoon and dig your grave" --all in reverse. this is a song about the birth of a new attitude, and the death of a way of life.

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."
