It's not all the cocaine
not the chemical imbalance in my brain
that's making my heartache pain
that's driving me insane
got too many thoughts to chew
got nervous system blues
My chest explodes in you
racing hard it's something new

this late at night, the only sound is
heartbeats
can't make the sounds, instead we listen
heartbeats
and once we get alone (it is only)??
heartbeats
and now we concentrate, concentrating on
heartbeats

electric lone and I
can't tell if we're all right
wanna kiss like dark meets light
trapped in paranoia pride
heart to heart your just my kind
but words are hard to find
our bodies beat in time
your eyes penetrate my mind

this late at night, the only sound is
heartbeats
can't make the sounds, instead we listen
heartbeats
and once we get alone (it is only)??
heartbeats
and now we concentrate, concentrating on
heartbeats

??? speeding fast
sweaty palms that people grasp
that's why the stars they always pass
torture with you's such a blast
your fingers swirl my hair
calm me down forget all cares
walking dead, oh what a pair
morning breaks it's just not fair

this late at night, the only sound is
heartbeats
can't make the sounds, instead we listen
heartbeats
and once we get alone (it is only)??
heartbeats
and now we concentrate, a-concentrating

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."

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
