I suggested at a truce, you spat out some excuse,
You're violent, violent,
They don't like you hanging round, you're bleeding on their ruby ground,
You're violent, violent,
Took you to a part of town, when amber calming people down,
It's no use, you're violent,
Just what everybody needs, another fucking gallery,
You're violent, vi - o - lent.

We'll take your dreams or lack of money,
We'll take your dreams or lack of money, (violent),
We'll take your dreams, (violent),
Or lack of money, (violent),
We'll take your dreams, (violent),
Or lack of money, (violent).

You would always around, the dangerous part of town,
For some excuse, for violence,
Bumping, into those with bling bling, on their wrists,
You're violent, violent,
Mum said keep an eye on you, she's scared of what you might do,
Your future, is over,
I would be amazed if you made it past 25,
You?re violent, vi - o - lent.

We'll take your dreams or lack of money,
We'll take your dreams or lack of money, (violent),
We'll take your dreams, (violent),
Or lack of money, (violent),
We'll take your dreams, (violent),
Or lack of money, (violent).

Introduce you some new friends, that would be the end of them,
You're violent, you'd eat them,
Gave you a chance to be a part of their society,
It's no use, you'd eat them,
People would run away, when the???
You're violent, violent,
Demonic males are bound to fail, in the ground or in jail,
Violent, vi - o - lent.

We'll take your dreams or lack of money,
We'll take your dreams or lack of money, (violent),
We'll take your dreams, (violent),
Or lack of money, (violent),
We'll take your dreams, (violent),
Or lack of money, (violent),
We'll take your dreams, (violent),
Or lack of money, (violent),
We'll take your dreams, (violent),
Or lack of money,
Violent.

    Yeah, I'm not sure... it makes more sense if it's "was it your genes"

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."
