You always told me you wanted something more
I couldn't give you what you were looking for
Is that a reason to stab me in the back?
Now tell me, baby what you think about that?

Is it revenge? Is it a sin?
Is that the way you treat your mother fucking friend?
I'm just saying, I do no wrong
I just felt like writing this song

Rage! You got me in a state of rage
I've been acting kind of strange
I don't know how to behave
Rage! You got me in a state of rage
I've been acting kind of strange
I don't know how to behave

You say you're sorry, you say that you still care
Deep down you're mad, you think I did my share
It's so unfair to put the blame on me
You made a mistake, now Shorty can't you see?

Are you selfish, or do you wanna be free?
You have your ways and I can't tell you how to be
You have your morals and you know what's right from wrong
I just hope you hear the lyrics to this song

Rage! You got me in a state of rage
I've been acting kind of strange
I don't know how to behave
Rage! You got me in a state of rage
I've been acting kind of strange
I don't know how to behave

Is it you? Is it me? Is it worth the agony?
What do I do when I wake up? How do I face reality?
Another land, another friend, tell me when this is gonna end?
I can't go through another day thinking that we could fade away

You always told me you wanted something more
I couldn't give you what you were looking for
Is that a reason to stab me in the back?
Now, tell me baby what you think about that?

Is it revenge? Is it a sin?
Is that the way you treat your mother fucking friend?
I'm just saying, I do no wrong
I just felt like writing this song

Rage! You got me in a state of rage
I've been acting kind of strange
I don't know how to behave
Rage! You got me in a state of rage
I've been acting kind of strange
I don't know how to behave

Rage! You got me in a state of rage
I've been acting kind of strange
I don't know how to behave
Rage! You got me in a state of rage
I've been acting kind of strange
I don't know how to behave

    Irrational and unfair women plague the dating game. This is about someone kicking off about something that's either already been agreed or something that cannot be changed and about 'her' getting what she wants and the only way she knows how to let him know is to kick off and become angry about it and take it out on him. 'Rage' he's angry because she's got him trapped and he won't sympathy with what is essentially her silliness because that is what it is. "You have you're morals and know you're right's and wrongs', i.e. stop being irrational. Relationships shouldn't be like this in my opinion, guys have to be gentlemen when their ladies become irrational probably due to too much release of their anger when they become irate, they get away with it once and then it spirals out of control to the point when because they can't control their anger and aggression they have to control their partners, to feel like their in control of at least something. It's ok to do it once in a while but learn to control it ladies. If you have to make an outlet express it elsewhere, not at the ones who love you!!

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.
