he's watching her; she's dancing there,
pressed up against the buyers and the willing.
her moves so graceful, he can't embrace the structure that became her name,
elaine, elaine, that was her name.
he knows he can't afford
to be wrapped up in this system,
this world where the most beautiful crime is a sin.

He spoke the words you won't believe, said it all but so did she,but she's the liar, but she's the liar here.

hello gorgeous,is he coming on too strong?
you just can't fight the ryhthm,
fight the rhythm.
can't fight the rhythm,
fight the rhythm.
Across these empty streets lie chapels,
the faith she's running after
the faith she's counting on tonight,
as he crawls slowly back there.
can you feel his presence beside you?
can you feel his arms wrapped around you?

He spoke the words you won't believe, said it all but so did she, but she's the liar, but she's the liar..he gets his nerve and says calmly, to judge him fair and let him be, let him be, considered.

Set it aside, just run
(just run),
keep on running girl he's right behind you.
(running girl, he's right behind you)
Finding the time to compensate for all your actions, leave it now she's not attracted, leave it boy or she'll react then
(make her way to the train station, lay her head and let god take her.)

it's been awhile since i've been this scared,
so unexpected.
i never thought i'd have to run so far
to get away from you.

he looks for sympathy as he walks along this lonely passage only to find the one he loves running from his attatchment..

he spoke the words you won't believe, said it all but so did she, but she's the liar, but she's the liar here. he gets his nerve and says calmly to judge him fair and let him be, let him be considered.

make your way back home, where it's safe, you're not alone. (x4)

    it's been awhile since i've been this scared, so unexpected. i never thought i'd have to run so far to get away from you.

    all i did was add in the "make your way.." [which was hard as helllll to hear, but i got it, haha] part in, and change a few other words

    also it should be::

    Across these empty streets lie chapels, the faith she's running after....

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."

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
