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”
Paralyzing atrophy locked in her web of mimicry
Suspended inverted waiting to die
Dexterous segmented limbs
Fangs to sink within your skin
They seek to find vacancy
With your withered heart
She lives for the hunt man
And you are the kill
Now feel that venom spread
It hardening your arteries
Ensnared soon to be dead
A shadow of your former
A mere shell of a man
Degenerated tortured hallowed
And spit into the earth again
To terminally lust for
To love one's self to death
Regret the day you heard the tune
That trapped you in the sirens nest
Enchanting the flower of disease
Beware her silken surprise
She'll throttle you down to your knees
She'll suck you dry
Lost inside her eyes of thousand
The deadly kiss of a mistress venomous
Soulless you fell before her
Quenching her ravenous thirst
Strip mining your essence
She'll turn your universe to black
Emasculating glutton for perverse punishment
Lecherous and deviant perfume to mask her scent
To the naked eye immaculate to her victim poisonous
She'll wrap you up so tight she'll suffocate without relent
Enchanting the flower of disease
Beware her silken surprise
She'll throttle you down to your knees
She'll suck you dry
Suspended inverted waiting to die
Dexterous segmented limbs
Fangs to sink within your skin
They seek to find vacancy
With your withered heart
She lives for the hunt man
And you are the kill
Now feel that venom spread
It hardening your arteries
Ensnared soon to be dead
A shadow of your former
A mere shell of a man
Degenerated tortured hallowed
And spit into the earth again
To terminally lust for
To love one's self to death
Regret the day you heard the tune
That trapped you in the sirens nest
Enchanting the flower of disease
Beware her silken surprise
She'll throttle you down to your knees
She'll suck you dry
Lost inside her eyes of thousand
The deadly kiss of a mistress venomous
Soulless you fell before her
Quenching her ravenous thirst
Strip mining your essence
She'll turn your universe to black
Emasculating glutton for perverse punishment
Lecherous and deviant perfume to mask her scent
To the naked eye immaculate to her victim poisonous
She'll wrap you up so tight she'll suffocate without relent
Enchanting the flower of disease
Beware her silken surprise
She'll throttle you down to your knees
She'll suck you dry

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."
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
this song is definitely about spiders.
Well I think its about a lady in disguise and she lives to take lives but she hides it with her innocence and she's referred to as a deadly organism such as a spider.
It's about a black widow. She lures men in with her false beauty and then kills them.
Reminds me of the Spider Queen boss from the new Ghostbusters game. awesome song btw
Great song. I originally thought this song was about the sea, before I saw these lyrics. I though where it said "Lost inside" was "Lost at sea" for some reason. However, if that lyric was that, it could still make sense. With the saying "the sea is a harsh mistress" it could be interpreted that way. But, still there is way too many spider references to think otherwise. Once again AMAZING song.
I thought this is about sirens.haha. By the way,great band. Do check "the absence" it's an awesome melodeath band,reminds me of oldskul and scandanavian style..
hahahaha yea
