Is trust really that fucking hard?
[a gesture of faith in me]
You make it sound when you let go within the circle
[blasphemy so regularly, right?]
everyone knows what you wear
that face of doubt
to live without
[Honestly we're deceiving each other]

You speak of awe
[it's not enough]
and take every word from me
[fighting everyone that I see
learning when and where not to be]
You speak of awe
[it's not enough]
And make every word taste sweet

Why don't you just
let me live my life?
I've given you more of my self
It's hard to give that back
Go and make me believe
that I feel complete

Better suite my manic depressive desires

You speak of awe
[it's not enough]
and take every word from me
[fighting everyone that I see
learning when and where not to be]
You speak of awe
[it's not enough]
and make every word taste sweet

Would you like us to wave off every battle?
[My invasion is your caviar]
[My invasion of thoughts is your caviar...]
[Stronger, longer, faster, blonder...]

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."
