So why don't you come with me
Take a trip to the other side
Where you, you and I, we can sing, we can fly
We can dance as the stars go by
And if the heavens should open up
With a vision inside, Jah love
The earth and the moon and the sun will align
With the voice from the sky above
One love

So come on and shine with me
Like the beautiful star you are
So come on and shine with me
Shine with me

Float through the sky and look through my eyes
And then you will see what happens
Nowhere to hide, look deep down inside
In life you must take your chances
And come with me (and come with me) and you will see
My love is like la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
And come with me (and come with me) and you will see
One love

So come on and shine with me
Like the beautiful star you are
And leave it behind with me
'Cause forever is not that far
So come on and shine with me
Like the beautiful star you are
And leave it behind with me
And shine with me

Shine on, shine on, shine on (one love)
Shine on, shine on, shine on (one love)
Shine on, shine on, shine on (one love)
Shine on, shine on, shine on (one love)

So come on and shine with me
Like the beautiful star you are
And leave it behind with me
'Cause forever is not that far
So come on and shine with me
Like the beautiful star you are
And leave it behind with me
And shine with me

Shine with me
Shine with me

    ok definitely the best song on when angels and serpents dance. i LOVE IT. im pretty sure its about a romantic relationship grounded in Jah Jehovah God. i love the part thats "my love is la la la la la" thats my favorite and i think they should have repeated that part at another time. the melody is so strong.

    I do love how this song can be an awesome love song, I believed at first it was a love song then I noticed the line: "The earth, and the moon, and the sun will align, With a voice from the sky above". Then I thought it might be about God/Jesus/Whateveryouwanttobelievein.

    So why don't you come with me He's speaking to you; the listener.

    And take a trip to the other side? Heaven.

    Where you, you and I, we can sing, we can fly We can dance as the stars go by Self Explanatory, but I do love how they don't mention sex, too many songs these days that always mention banging some chick you just met.

    And if the heavens should open up With a vision inside 'Jah love I'm still confused with what 'Jah means, could anyone tell me? I'm not sure if it means "Ya" or "Jesus'"

    The earth, and the moon, and the sun will align Only a theory but I think people say this'll happen in 2012.

    With a voice from the sky above God/Jesus coming to help us...maybe? hell I can't see into the future.

    But the rest of the song is basically about joining him, AND SHINING! I love this song simply for the idea of shining together. The whole "one love" means one consciousness where we all join the infinite love, or you can relate it to god once more and say we all love one god or something (blatantly not a Christian).

    I know people can get very frustrated with the whole "Is there a god?" or "2012 is bullshit" thing and I know, I am sorry.

    It's just P.O.D are Christians and I want to keep an open mind and try and figure what the meaning of their songs are.

    I know the 2012 could be utter bullshit, but it's just a theory that I've believed in quite some time, I'm quite positive that something may happen, and if nothing happens, then shame on me and I'm sorry for being wrong ;P

    God I do hate thinking about these things ;P but hell, I'm bored and got nothing else to do.

    Hope you enjoyed my comment XD

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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."

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.
