You feel the rhythm pumping through your veins
Backbeat is pulsing, driving you insane
Giving in, was it your mistake?
Endless regret is keeping you awake!

It wasn't me who spread the sheets
Called it a day and made this bed
The choice is yours, my friend
I never once sold you short
From you can I expect apathy?
Never me!
From a distance I embrace (the) decent!

Watching the mountains fall into the sea (to the sea!)
Head in your hands
Stumble to bended knees
Wishing this moment could be lost in time (lost in time! rewind! rewind!)

Did you think I'd walk away?
bow down so gracefully.
Did you think I'd walk away? (walk away)
bow down so gracefully.

say what you want,
say what you need?
I feel you pulling at the thread-I feel you pulling at the thread until the separation of fabric from seam

Watching the mountains fall into the sea (to the sea!)
Head in your hands
Stumble to bended knees
Wishing this moment could be lost in time (lost in time! rewind! rewind!)

Watching the mountains fall into the sea (to the sea!)
Head in your hands
Stumble to bended knees
Wishing this moment could be lost in time
Slipping away, trying to press rewind

And whats just ripping into your thoughts until it breaks you, feelings sustained that throughout life right where it keeps you.
Remarks are ripping in your thoughts until it breaks you, throwing away what you create, what has made you.

You feel the rhythm pumping through your veins
Backbeat is pulsing, driving you insane
Giving in, was it your mistake?
Endless regret is keeping you awake!

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."

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
