You take the things you want and leave everything you need
But you better take heed, you won't get to see me bleed.
I can always change, but you'll always be the same
It's such a crying shame, but someone should take the blame.
And if you go home with another tough guy
I don't wanna here you cry how you can't look him in the eye
If you go home with another tough guy
I don't wanna here you cry
I won't help you say good-bye,

If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
I can help you out with that
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
I can help you out with that

I know I'm evil mean and I know I'm playing tough
And I know you've had it tough, but I think I've had enough.
I was unaware of you ever playing fair
And I really don't care, how's the weather down there?
But if you go home with another tough guy,
I don't wanna hear you cry how you can't look him in the eye
And if you go home with another tough guy,
I don't wanna hear you cry there's no more of you and I.

If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
I can help you out with that
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
I can help you out with that
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
I can help you out with that
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
I can help you out with that

And if you go home with another tough guy, another tough guy
Who's just a little to high
If you go home with another tough guy,
I don't wanna hear you cry there's no more of you and I

I'm up in the air, how's the weather down there
I don't wanna play fair and really don't care
I'm up in the air, how's the weather down there
I really don't care
I really don't care

If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
I can help you out with that
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
I can help you out with that
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
I can help you out with that
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
I can help you out with that
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
I can help you out with that
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave
If you wanna leave

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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."

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
