(whoa oh, whoa oh-oh, whoa oh)
(whoa oh, whoa oh-oh, whoa oh)

i broke it down as we built
i made a sound just to be heard
i made mistakes just to feel guilt
i made some traps just to see some hurt

you talk a lot about what you don't know
you say you wanna stay but always go
you've lit a spark, but you'll never glow
you've got no chance in this hell

should i, do i even care at all?
could i, will i be there to watch you fall?

(whoa oh, whoa oh-oh, whoa oh)

worthy of my time? i think not
always on my mind? afraid not
suspecting the worst, i do a lot
it's not called lazy, it's called an art

you talk a lot about what you don't know
you say you wanna stay but always go
you've lit a spark, but you'll never glow
you've got no chance in this hell

should i, do i even care at all?
could i, will i be there to watch you fall?
should i, do i even care at all?
could i, will i be there to watch you fall?

watch you fall, watch you fall
watch you fall, watch you fall

should i, do i even care at all?
could i, will i be there to watch you fall?
should i, do i even care at all?
could i, will i be there to watch you fall?

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."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
