Stealing Society

System of a Down

Yeah
Alright
Yeah
Alright

Two skies
Watching it all fading
Two skies
Living it all fading
Two skies
Watching it all fading
Two skies fading, one's abating
Two suns
Living it all, dying
Two suns fighting, one's abiding

Two suns
Watching them both fighting
Two suns
Seeing them both dying
Two suns
Watching them both fighting
Two suns fighting, one's abiding
Two skies
Seeing them both dying
Two skies fading, one's abating

Ah-ah-ah

Crack pipes, needles, PCP and fast cars
Kind of mix really well in a dead movie star
When I feel like talking, I'll never be wrong
If I feel like walking, you best come along

I close my windows, crack the heat up high
'Til my palms are wet and my tongue is dry
I'm looking for a mother that'll get me high
Just a stupid motherfucker, if I die, I die, I'm a

Midnight
Fist fight
Looking for a mother that will get me high
Just a stupid motherfucker, if I die, I die, I'm a

Midnight
Fist fight
Looking for a mother that will get me high
Just a stupid motherfucker, if I die, I die, alright

I'm looking for a mother that will get me high (two suns fighting)
Just a stupid motherfucker, if I die, I die, alright (one's abiding)
Looking for a mother that will get me high (two skies fading)
Just a stupid motherfucker, if I die, I die (one's abating)

'Cause I'm looking for a mother that will get me high (two suns fighting)
Just a stupid motherfucker, if I die, I die (one's abiding)
Yeah, I am looking for a mother that will get me high (two skies, two suns)
And I'm a stupid motherfucker, if I die, I die, alright (watching them all go)

Yeah
Alright
Yeah
Alright

    I think he must of been having a bad day obviously. In life ou almost always have 2 choices. One is the better of the two, but they both seem promising. one is soothing and refreshing(abating) and the other is an enduring sun(abiding). The sun being what you crave most. The sky is your opportunity which both are fading. And dude wants to get high and it doesnt matter what happens to him

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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.

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."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
