This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I relate to your kind, your design, your devotion to wave.
Get your brain on the prize then dive inside,
The mindset of a killer with your mind out of phase.
It's a game that we like. We crave yet nobody wins.
Any way you decide, you try but you die,
The mindset of a killer,
With your gaze you paint the room blood red
With tears pouring from the stage.
And you cant stop now row by row almost out.
Covered in black and gold no one cares and no one knows.
My gift to the world outside.
It's OK, I'm all right
Now open your empty hands
'cause here comes the fun here comes the end.
Click erase the device, give thanks, then clear out the room.
Blow kisses, wave them goodbye, goodnight.
Mindset of a killer, with your gaze,
You paint the room blood red with tears pour from the stage.
And you cant stop now row by row almost out.
Covered in black and gold no one cares and no one knows.
My gift to the world outside.
It's OK, I'm all right
Now open your empty hands
'cause here comes the fun here comes the end.
Get your brain on the prize then dive inside,
The mindset of a killer with your mind out of phase.
It's a game that we like. We crave yet nobody wins.
Any way you decide, you try but you die,
The mindset of a killer,
With your gaze you paint the room blood red
With tears pouring from the stage.
And you cant stop now row by row almost out.
Covered in black and gold no one cares and no one knows.
My gift to the world outside.
It's OK, I'm all right
Now open your empty hands
'cause here comes the fun here comes the end.
Click erase the device, give thanks, then clear out the room.
Blow kisses, wave them goodbye, goodnight.
Mindset of a killer, with your gaze,
You paint the room blood red with tears pour from the stage.
And you cant stop now row by row almost out.
Covered in black and gold no one cares and no one knows.
My gift to the world outside.
It's OK, I'm all right
Now open your empty hands
'cause here comes the fun here comes the end.

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."

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,

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.
Everything about this screams out that its about Chi. Even before you've figured out what he's saying, it starts with this RX-Queen-esque verse with the bass part. Also, the i to vi progression used predominantly in this song makes it harmonically immediately associated with the white pony album, which for some reason to me feels like Chi's 'golden days', and I wonder if this (along with the entire instrumentation of the song) is a direct hint. If that seems a bit vague, all you need to do is listen to the lyrics. I don't think they really need analysing.
Also, it seems that this isn't the only one on this album in that vein.
