I have reached the end, and I don't know
(What I believe in anymore)

There's something crazy runnin' wild inside my brain
I have seen the truth become my lie
(Relive my shame, swallow my pride)

I have crossed the line and I know there's no turning back!

You kiss away all of my pain!
You wash away these bloody stains
You are to blame my suffering
(My, my, my suffering)

You kiss away all of the pain!
You wash away these bitter stains
You are to blame my suffering
(My, my, my suffering)

I've seen the devil in a smile
(I found salvation in a vial)
My happy ending exists only in my dreams!

You kiss away all of my pain!
You washed away these bloody stains
You are to blame my suffering
(My, my, my suffering)

You kiss away all of the pain!
You washed away these bitter stains
You are to blame my suffering

(My Suffering)

You kiss away all of my pain!
You washed away these bloody stains
You are to blame my suffering
(My, my, my suffering)

You kiss away all of the pain!
You washed away these bitter stains
You are to blame my suffering

You kiss away all of my pain!
You washed away these bloody stains
You are to blame my suffering

(My, my, my suffering)
My suffering
(My, my, my suffering)
My suffering
(My, my, my suffering)
My suffering (My suffering)

    My Interpretation

    I think this song taps into Chester's past and his drug and alcohol addictions ("I've seen the devil in a smile / I found salvation in a vile"). It's definitely gritty enough to be talking about drugs. I love the beat too! Amazing song, amazing album. Good job Chazy Chaz!

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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 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."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
