I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
High School party, senior year
Boys and girls are all sippin' on beer
I like soda, where's the soda
Am I the only fucking person here that likes soda
I see you from across the crowd
I said the party is bumpin' and the music is loud
You're really drunk and you're looking sad
It's like a date rape ad
Girl, then we start to dance and
Girl, baby this is romance
Girl, I'm starting to grow down below, shit, why did I wear sweat pants
Girl, you're body's like what
conjunction junction, that's a fine ass but
I'm like a cashew in a lollipop, Just keeping suckin' 'til you get to the nut
And I said
Let's rob an Asian kitchen, or stroll down the block
Either way girl, we're taking a walk/wok... nothing?
You're going to love me the way my uncle did
Except you're not gonna to go to court for doin' it
Be a guillotine or my girl instead
Either way, you're giving me head
I'm gonna love you the right way
Shorty with a body looking hottie when I say
Girl
When I say girl
We go into the bedroom exchanging nervous laughter
Why's it called dry humping if I always need a towel after
You spread your naked legs and I see that wounded that never healed
Even though you're yelling for me, I can tell your lips are sealed
We're both aware of my erection
You ask if I have protection
I say Well um no...I-I tried to buy em once I was in the convenient store my old baby sitter walked in I had to hide them near the tic-tacs I was so embarrassed I peed myself a little bit
Girl
Girl
Insert a euphemism
A sexy mental prism
Increase my pelvic rhythm
fill you with my syllogism
I know your body and I know how to please ya
Don't thank me, thank wikipedia
Guys don't go down, well I am-
What the fuck is that, I should have brought my diagram
Ooh did you feel that, that was an educated guess
Ooh did you feel that, uh that one was a sneeze, my bad
High school party, senior year
None of that happened cause I wasn't invited... hm
Boys and girls are all sippin' on beer
I like soda, where's the soda
Am I the only fucking person here that likes soda
I see you from across the crowd
I said the party is bumpin' and the music is loud
You're really drunk and you're looking sad
It's like a date rape ad

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."
