Take all your medicine
It's gonna make you well
You'll have to run till it's over
I'm sure you'll be able to tell
You'll know it's over
For the rest of your life
You're gonna be high
Come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
They'll be sneaking up behind you again
Talk to the doctor
He said you're well for home
Take all your medicine
Be sure you're never alone
You'll know it's over
For the rest of your life
You're gonna be high

Come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
They'll be sneaking up behind you again

Come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you come home
It's something less than a holiday
When you

    Hmmm no comments yet. Well I'm kinda stumped on this song. I don't know, I geuss its about coming off a high from a drug. However, there's a line saying "For the rest of your life your gonna be high" so I have no idea.

    lol if you wanted to look at a weird angle its about dying and going to heaven.... the lines come home, home can mean heaven and the part about being high well we all know heaven is up in the sky lol and the part about the medicine and doctor is talking about keeping whom ever it might be about alive while there is this calling to come home to heaven

    I have no idea what they intended with this song, but for me it brings to mind a struggle with addiction, with coming home symbolizing a relapse, a return to a destructive lifestyle.

    someone has been diagnosed with a terminal illness and there's nothing more the hospital can do so the patient is sent home with enough medicine to ease the suffering

    I really like this tune. My thought on it was that it was about mental illness and all the drugs they can put you on so you're "better." The paranoia of "they'll be sneaking up behind you again." They tend to medicate you for life with some of that stuff, so "for the rest of your life you're gonna be high." To me "it's something less than a holiday" fits right in... never easy dealing with that stuff.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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."

Magical
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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

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.
