We of blood frozen so thick it cannot thaw
Joints lubricated by sweet alcohol
Liver dissolving, eyelids but heavy sheets
Ignorant bliss and the bloodshot secrets it will keep

Pills, if you wouldn't mind
Clouds of vapor to stretch out the miles
Hungover, we'll greet a certain death
With a flash of chipped tooth smile
Each cities' demons buried beneath
In this campaign of vice
Our drinking song, a reprise

A slow blur existence
Wading knee deep in sin
Clutch at the ulcer
Acknowledge the frailties within

At dawn we begin again

You who have never seen your breath, are you alive?
This mitten clenches in a fist to kiss this fucking world goodnight

Destroyer, my only keeper
I kneel unto your amber gates
(And) pray you'll kill the ugliness that sleep won't take away

Free drinks, they shall not kill us
They only warm our fucking bones!
But late at night, I can't forget your laugh
And everything I used to know

But I've never seen so many faces
But I've never felt this all alone
But I guess this is what I've always wanted,
A four-wheeled coffin to call home

I will not ask another name
Disappearing faster than they came
Are you having fun?
Are you entertained?

Another heart-shaped bruise,
Another friend back home I'll lose
Am I missing something?
What is left to prove?

Another heated first-name fuck
Another stroke of dead man's luck
Another year I can't replace
Another tear sent down her face

At dawn we begin again,
'Till our deaths shall bring an end

You who have never seen your breath, are you alive?
This mitten clenches in a fist to kiss this fucking world goodnight

Destroyer, my only keeper
I kneel unto your amber gates
(And) pray you'll kill the ugliness that sleep won't take away

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.
