The End of day, the fading light
falls on the sentinel of night
the guardian of her tombstone
forgotten and alone

She cries below the moonshine
all memories of her fade in time
impressions of her beauty
from beyond the grave

The time has passed so slowly
an old man now I am
lived a life so senseless
waiting for the end

The time has cracked your tombstone
a sign of the decay
on a grave so nameless
the inscription washed away

They said Angels never cry
but I saw her cry
They said Angels never die
but I saw her die

All life I spent praying, praying for my death
waiting for my doomsday, to do my final step
a journey to world, without loneliness and pain
a journey to a world, to get her back again.

They said Angels never cry
but I saw her cry
They said Angels never die
but I saw her die

Shadows fill my mind
I take my final breath
I leave the world behind
into a long awaited death [2x]

Deathlike silence
fills the night
then an angel appeared
in the shining light

A release for a praying man to die
A release for a bitter man who cries
A release for a lonely man in the end
The fulfill of the love which I demand

A touch of her makes me remember as if it was yesterday
The strings of life are cut, my soul starts to drift away
Into another world our souls will unify
A lifetime of pain is forgotten
A life long I wanted to die

They said angels never cry
but I saw her cry
They said angels never die
but I saw her die
I thought a livetime it was a lie
but it was no lie
she came back to me again
just as I died.

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."
