This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
They hated every part of me
Expect me to forget it
They tried so hard to bury me
But I survived it every time
Convicted of every crime
Silently doing time
But when I get outta here
I wanna make it clear
Vengeance is mine
Vengeance is mine, mine, mine
To forgive is divine
But vengeance is mine, mine, mine
They tortured every inch of me
Then expect me to forget it
They thought that they would finish me
But I pull through every time
Punish me everyday
But I'll never break
Hold on to all your fears
'Cause when I get outta here
Vengeance is mine
Vengeance is mine, mine, mine
To forgive is divine
But vengeance is mine, mine, mine
(Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance)
What I want
(Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance)
What I need
(Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance)
What I want, What I need, What I want, What I need
(Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance)
What I want, What I need, What I want, What I need
(Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance)
(Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance... Vengeance)
Vengeance is mine, mine, mine
To forgive is divine
Not as rewarding I find
Because vengeance is mine
Vengeance is mine, mine, mine
Vengeance is mine
Vengeance is mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine
Expect me to forget it
They tried so hard to bury me
But I survived it every time
Convicted of every crime
Silently doing time
But when I get outta here
I wanna make it clear
Vengeance is mine
Vengeance is mine, mine, mine
To forgive is divine
But vengeance is mine, mine, mine
They tortured every inch of me
Then expect me to forget it
They thought that they would finish me
But I pull through every time
Punish me everyday
But I'll never break
Hold on to all your fears
'Cause when I get outta here
Vengeance is mine
Vengeance is mine, mine, mine
To forgive is divine
But vengeance is mine, mine, mine
(Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance)
What I want
(Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance)
What I need
(Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance)
What I want, What I need, What I want, What I need
(Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance)
What I want, What I need, What I want, What I need
(Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance)
(Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance, Vengeance... Vengeance)
Vengeance is mine, mine, mine
To forgive is divine
Not as rewarding I find
Because vengeance is mine
Vengeance is mine, mine, mine
Vengeance is mine
Vengeance is mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
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."

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
I believe this song is about the earlier part of his phenomenal career. It's about everyone doubting and not agreeing with his lyrics and music in general. The 'man' tried to stop him in any way possible but couldn't and here he is still standing and perservering through the scrutiny and doing very well as a musical genius. He, in my opinion, is saying "Yeah, you doubted me and my music at first, but my career speaks for itself" so, 'Vengence is Mine'
