""All I heard was the sound of fish who'd drowned All I saw was the inside of my eyelids All I said fell short of reaching open ears Words floating clouding the view \""See no hear no speak no evil\"" Leaves you deaf dumb and blind Because the bad is all you'll find A deeply heart-felt goodbye To the part of me that died when I decided To put others before me Yes my heart fell asleep boredom and fatigue I always said I wanted to die smiling To pretend I'm at peace Now from my corpse beams a frigid blank grin And once hopeful eyes are sunken in Like a lullaby to the cradle Is the eulogy to the casket All my flaws swept under the table To grieve the porcelain doll that was me Their solemn songs sang me to sleep As my body escaped me Their solemn songs sang me to sleep As my body... Such a shameful masquerade Fleeting frozen minutes on display Why is evolution such a shameful thing to say? Can you feel your bodily decay? Because I can sure as hell feel my brain going blank If my body betrays me there's pollution to thank This condition infects my cells like it controls my mind Internal army defend me behind enemy lines! Fragile vehicle of mine Don't abandon me yet There is so much to live for That we so easily forget Fascination with the fear The concept escapes me All encompassing fate How it wrenches our hearts Torments our souls And sings us all to sleep To an eternal keep No matter what beliefs It sweetly sings us all""

    0 comments? Really?! This girl is beautiful, has a kick ass voice and a brutal scream... I don't remember where I stumbled across this band, but I am sure glad I did.

    I think the meaning of the song is just about losing innocence (not her virginity) just her eyes opening up to what the world is really like. Also something about being fake before she realized how the world was like, from the part about her once being a porcelain doll.

    I'll probably re comment later on. This was my my thoughts after the first listen through with the lyrics next to me. =] MysteryXsk8r

    Oh yeah, it's definetly about opening your eyes to the real world. The video is so freaking creepy and the first few seconds of the song freak me out too.

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."

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
