This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
You're not as messed up as you think you are
Your self-absorption makes you messier
Just settle down and you will feel a whole lot better
Deep down you're just like everybody else
She's not as pretty as she thinks she is
Just picture her after she's had kids
I bet she sits at home and listens to The Smiths
Deep down she's just like everybody else
So why are you sat at home?
You're not designed to be alone
You just got used to saying "No"
So get up and get down and get outside
'Cause it's a lovely sunny day
But you hide yourself away
You've only got yourself to blame
Get up and get down and get outside
He's not as clever as he likes to think
He's just ambitious with his arguing
He's crap at dancing, yeah and he can't hold his drink
Deep down he's just like everybody else
I'm not as awesome as this song makes out
I'm angry, underweight and sketching out
I'm building bonfires on my vanities and doubts
To get warm just like everybody else
So why are you sat at home?
You're not designed to be alone
You just got used to saying "No"
So get up and get down and get outside
'Cause it's a lovely sunny day
But you hide yourself away
You've only got yourself to blame
Get up and get down and get outside
Amy thinks that life is lacking in drama
So she fell for horoscopes, faith-healing and karma
She's so wrapped up in her invisible armor
She'll never grow into herself
And it's okay thinking me and all my friends are just wasters
But saying that I can still see through her heirs and graces
I bet she's scared her life, won't leave any traces
Caught up like everyone else
That's not the point anyway
Oh darling, I felt compelled to call you up to say
So why are you sat at home?
You're not designed to be alone
You just got used to saying "No"
So get up and get down and get outside
'Cause it's a lovely sunny day
But you hide yourself away
You've only got yourself to blame
Get up and get down and get outside
Get up and get down and get outside
Get up and get down and get outside
Get up and get down and get outside
Get up and get down and get outside
Get up and get down and get outside
Your self-absorption makes you messier
Just settle down and you will feel a whole lot better
Deep down you're just like everybody else
She's not as pretty as she thinks she is
Just picture her after she's had kids
I bet she sits at home and listens to The Smiths
Deep down she's just like everybody else
So why are you sat at home?
You're not designed to be alone
You just got used to saying "No"
So get up and get down and get outside
'Cause it's a lovely sunny day
But you hide yourself away
You've only got yourself to blame
Get up and get down and get outside
He's not as clever as he likes to think
He's just ambitious with his arguing
He's crap at dancing, yeah and he can't hold his drink
Deep down he's just like everybody else
I'm not as awesome as this song makes out
I'm angry, underweight and sketching out
I'm building bonfires on my vanities and doubts
To get warm just like everybody else
So why are you sat at home?
You're not designed to be alone
You just got used to saying "No"
So get up and get down and get outside
'Cause it's a lovely sunny day
But you hide yourself away
You've only got yourself to blame
Get up and get down and get outside
Amy thinks that life is lacking in drama
So she fell for horoscopes, faith-healing and karma
She's so wrapped up in her invisible armor
She'll never grow into herself
And it's okay thinking me and all my friends are just wasters
But saying that I can still see through her heirs and graces
I bet she's scared her life, won't leave any traces

You're not designed to be alone
You just got used to saying "No"
So get up and get down and get outside
'Cause it's a lovely sunny day
But you hide yourself away
You've only got yourself to blame
Get up and get down and get outside
Get up and get down and get outside
Get up and get down and get outside
Get up and get down and get outside
Get up and get down and get outside
Get up and get down and get outside

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."

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
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.
When I'm feelng down,in bad luck or just angsty, this song makes me feel better I see it as tell people in general they aren't special - everyone feels like a mess sometimes so just grow up there us really only one reason not to be an idiot - "deep down you're just like everybody else"
it makes me feel better, however, that everybody does sometime feel the same :3
