Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
When our time is up
When our lives are done
Will we say we've had our fun
Will we make a mark
This time
Will we always say we tried
Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out
Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out
Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out
This is all we got now
Everybody scream your heart out
All the love I've met
I have no regrets
If it all ends now, I'm set
Will we make a mark
This time
Will we always say we tried
Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out
Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out
Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out
This is all we got now
Everybody scream your heart out
Standing on the rooftops
Wait until the bombs drop
This is all we got now
Scream until your heart stops
Never gonna regret
Watching every sunset
We'll listen to your heartbeat
All the love that we found
Standing on the rooftops
Wait until the bombs drop
This is all we got now
Scream until your heart stops
Never gonna regret
Watching every sunset
We'll listen to your heartbeat
All the love that we found
Scream your heart out
Scream your heart out
Scream your heart out

Everybody scream your heart out
Standing on the rooftops
Everybody scream your heart out

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
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."
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

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.
From what I can tell what you wrote seems all right. (Maybe a few things I would have written differently, like "Scream until your heart stops" vs "Scream it til l your heart stops).
Isn't this song is amazing? The way I see this, it's saying that we can't live life any better way than by following our hearts. Sometimes we get caught up in things, but the best way to leave a legacy (or a mark) is to always follow your heart. Or at least something like that, I can't seem to pin down a specific idea I feel really covers the song.
To me, it's about living life how you want with no regard (Or more approriately, disregard) for how other people percieve it. To not regret anything you do, as long as it is true to what you believe in.
It's not a bad song, but the Prophets can certainly do better than this. Then again, this is just the single.
Typed it out listening to the song. No idea how correct it is. But yaah.. Catchy song.
Ian Watkins in Kerrang! magazine "You know the scene in 'Garden State' where they're all screaming into a pit? Well, that's pretty much the whole ethos behind the song. Life can be so frustrating sometimes and you just have to scream. Where's the best place to do that? A rooftop."
June 27th. Cant fuckin waaait.
This is a bloody fantastic song. To me it means that you should live your life with no regrets. Do it for yourself and no one else!
i think its about live your life how you want. awesome song
It's about letting it go, no holds life, and live the moment, with no regrets.
