I've dug deep into the world and buried my life,
One day I shall replace what I once lost.

I shall rebuild what I created, keep it held tight,
Burry yourself with honour, and we'll all say our peace
When will you realise you're not in control
The sound of divine wind will haunt us all.

It's about time that I gave in, took a well needed moment to
Watch these times die, have I failed you?

For years I have seen, you wallow in self pity it got to me.
A sequence of noises arranged to make sense,
Go!

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to speak my words, speak what I'm thinking.

If I don't speak then how the fuck can you silence me!

It's about time I gave into you
Bury yourself with honour, and we'll all say our piece,
When will you realise you're not in control
The sound of divine wind will haunt us all.

    about saying what you think "I'm not sure if I'm allowed to speak my words, speak what I'm thinking."

    My Interpretation

    "Bury yourself with honor, and we'll all say our piece.

    When will you realize you're not in control?

    The sound of divine wind will haunt us all."

    This part of the song impacted me the most, I just feel like it means we don't do the right things all the time. Do what you will, as long as you own up to what you've committed. We'll all give our own opinions and judgments on what someone's done but we can't control what temptations will be thrown our way, and more or less we'll be in the same situation somehow.

    My interpretation, atleast.

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."
