I can't take your hand
And lead you to the water
I can't make you feel
What you don't feel but you know you wanna
Find out how to crack me
Log in try to hack me

Underneath the surface
There so much you need to know
And you might feel like your drowning
And that's what I need to let go

Tell me what you've got to break down the walls
You just might need dynamite
Tell me what you've got to break down the walls
Kick senseless my defenses
Tell me what your gonna do
I need you to light the fuse
Tell me what you've got to break down the walls
You just might need dynamite

Got dynamite?

I can't paint this picture
Just so you can hang it

I can't wait
For you to understand
If you just don't get it

Find out how to crack me
Log in try to hack me
Underneath the surface
There is so much you need to know
And you might feel like your drowning
But that's what I need to let go

Tell me what you've got to break down the walls
You just might need dynamite
Tell me what you've got to break down the walls
Kick senseless my defenses
Tell me what your gonna do
I need you to light the fuse
Tell me what you've got to break down the walls
You just might need dynamite

When the walls come crashing down
I hope you're standing right in front of me
Where my past lies all around
Cause all you need to save me is to intervene
And make the walls come crashing down

Got dynamite!

Tell me what you've got to break down the walls
You just might need dynamite
Tell me what you've got to break down the walls
Kick senseless my defenses
Tell me what your gonna do
I need you to light the fuse
Tell me what you've got to break down the walls
You just might need dynamite

I got dynamite
I got dynamite

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."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
