This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Up on the pebble driveway
There sits a house
It's the loneliest place
I haven't spent much time there
I wasn't allowed
It just didn't feel right
I open both of my eyes
Still see an empty place, so empty
But if I keep them closed
And there's still a chance, that something is out there
But it's all built upon a burial ground
It just doesn't feel right
It just doesn't feel right
I made a promise to you long ago
That I'd do anything to keep this home
On top the frozen creek
I would love to take you there
Swear it froze through me
On top the frozen creek, oh
Up on the pebble driveway
There sits a house
But its the loneliest place
I haven't spent much time there
I wasn't allowed
It just didn't seem right
If I open both of my eyes
Still see an empty place, so empty
But if I keep them closed
Then there's still the chance
That someone is out there
But it's all built upon a burial ground
It just doesn't feel right
It just doesn't seem right
I made a promise to you long ago
That I'd do anything to save this home
On top the frozen creek
I would love to take you there
Swear it froze through me
On top the frozen creek
I would love to take you there
I would love to take you there
I would love to take you there
There sits a house
It's the loneliest place
I haven't spent much time there
I wasn't allowed
It just didn't feel right
I open both of my eyes
Still see an empty place, so empty
But if I keep them closed
And there's still a chance, that something is out there
But it's all built upon a burial ground
It just doesn't feel right
It just doesn't feel right
I made a promise to you long ago
That I'd do anything to keep this home
On top the frozen creek
I would love to take you there
Swear it froze through me
On top the frozen creek, oh
Up on the pebble driveway
There sits a house
But its the loneliest place
I haven't spent much time there
I wasn't allowed
It just didn't seem right
If I open both of my eyes
Still see an empty place, so empty
But if I keep them closed
Then there's still the chance
That someone is out there
But it's all built upon a burial ground
It just doesn't feel right
It just doesn't seem right
I made a promise to you long ago
That I'd do anything to save this home
On top the frozen creek
I would love to take you there
Swear it froze through me
On top the frozen creek
I would love to take you there
I would love to take you there
I would love to take you there

Hayalperest
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.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
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."
its pretty obvious that on letting go is almost entirely about god and religion. i think at one point in his life anthony had a relationship with a god and that over the years... like many people... it fell apart when he began questioning things.
i think this song is about anthony moving back in the direction of having a relationship with 'god'
up on the pebble driveway there sits a house, it's the loneliest place (the house is a metaphor for anthony's relationship with god, or current lack of one)
i haven't spent much time there, i wasn't allowed, it just didn't feel right (for awhile he pushed away any belief in god and abandoned faith)
i open both of my eyes and still see an empty place, so empty but if i keep them closed, then there's still a chance that something/one is out there (when he tries to open up to the idea of god again he still feels empty)
but it's all built upon a burial ground, it just doesn't feel right (its hard to open up to something he's closed himself off from for such a long time)
i made a promise to you long ago that i'd do anything to keep this home (when he says 'to you' i think he's talking to himself. he went through a period of trial where he lost faith, but i think deep inside he always had some inner relationship or connection with a higher spirit)
on top the frozen creek, i would love to take you there (the creek is a metaphor for his soul. it being frozen symbolizes his faith, the water, freezing. then i think he is talking to himself again when he says i would love to take you there. i think this is the most important line. he would like to have a relationship with god again)
thats just how i view these lyrics song...
