This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I used to know you
I used to care
I used to know you
Are you still there?
I won't touch you
I won't feel you
I won't hear you
I won't see you
I used to know you
Are you still there?
I used to know you
I used to care
It goes far and wide
It's a cruel device
I cannot drive
You from my mind
I won't reach out
I won't strike in
I won't dream about
I won't parse the thought
I used to know you
I used to care
I used to know you
Are you still there?
I jumped from the top
And fell right back and I
Hit the ground running
Scared
I swam to the bottom of the sea
And I asked around for someone
Who might know me
Ain't a sad when your choices
are Vegas and your friends
99 floors
And still nowhere to go
99 floors
And still nowhere to roam
A punch to the head
I passed right out and an
impotent stood dumbstruck
and stared
Armed once again by the fist of fate
I wait for his resurrection home
Ain't it sad when your choices
are vices or advice
It's eleven o'clock
And don't that make you bawl
It's eleven o'clock
And don't ya make it bawl
Evil, ailing
Feeling oh so low
I'm slow to anger
Wonder where I could
Ever go
You know I'd have to forget
It goes far and wide
It's a cruel device
I cannot drive
You from my mind
I used to care
I used to know you
Are you still there?
I won't touch you
I won't feel you
I won't hear you
I won't see you
I used to know you
Are you still there?
I used to know you
I used to care
It goes far and wide
It's a cruel device
I cannot drive
You from my mind
I won't reach out
I won't strike in
I won't dream about
I won't parse the thought
I used to know you
I used to care
I used to know you
Are you still there?
I jumped from the top
And fell right back and I
Hit the ground running
Scared
I swam to the bottom of the sea
And I asked around for someone
Who might know me
Ain't a sad when your choices
are Vegas and your friends
99 floors
And still nowhere to go
99 floors
And still nowhere to roam
A punch to the head
I passed right out and an
impotent stood dumbstruck
and stared
Armed once again by the fist of fate
I wait for his resurrection home
Ain't it sad when your choices
are vices or advice
It's eleven o'clock
And don't that make you bawl
It's eleven o'clock
And don't ya make it bawl
Evil, ailing
Feeling oh so low
I'm slow to anger
Wonder where I could
Ever go
You know I'd have to forget
It goes far and wide
It's a cruel device
I cannot drive
You from my mind

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.
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."

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
This song reminds me of my best friend. We're going through some tough times. Things are rough.
Billy Corgan never fails to make me feel like I have someone to relate to. His music is always there to catch me when I need it to.
i have only recently come across this beautiful song by billy corgan....he seems to be the spokesman for any and all of us that have felt the true depths of pain,dissapointment and disillusionment..he will continue to try and "grow beautiful flowers out of the cracks in the pavement" no matter the diversity or hardship....to make beauty out of the ugliness and injustices of life is to be a master magician and after listening to his song 99 floors i realize that he is the the absolute best at what he does...he is truly the houdini of his craft.....
