This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Here we are
Once again
In all our vain-
glorious ambition
No doubt or
Second guess
And damned
The consequence
When the end
Is Justified
By ever changing
Reasons and lies
When hubris rules
Honesty wanes
It’s a dangerous game
It’s easy
To rationalize
When it’s someone
Else’s life
Power makes even
The coward brave
It’s a dangerous game
Black gold
At what cost
How many innocent
Lives have been lost
How many barrels of
Blood does it take
To fill an SUV
These days
All this
And what for
This land’s now a
Festering open sore
How long
Are we stayin’
It’s a dangerous game
We’re playin’
It’s a dangerous game
It’s a dangerous game
It’s a dangerous game
We’re playin’
Once again
In all our vain-
glorious ambition
No doubt or
Second guess
And damned
The consequence
When the end
Is Justified
By ever changing
Reasons and lies
When hubris rules
Honesty wanes
It’s a dangerous game
It’s easy
To rationalize
When it’s someone
Else’s life
Power makes even
The coward brave
It’s a dangerous game
Black gold
At what cost
How many innocent
Lives have been lost
How many barrels of
Blood does it take
To fill an SUV
These days
All this
And what for
This land’s now a
Festering open sore
How long
Are we stayin’
It’s a dangerous game
We’re playin’
It’s a dangerous game
It’s a dangerous game
It’s a dangerous game
We’re playin’

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."
