This suspense is killing me
I can't stand uncertainty
Tell me now, I've got to know
Whether you want me to stay or go.

Love me or leave me or let me be lonely
You won't believe me but I love you only
I'd rather be lonely then happy with somebody else.

You might find the night time's, the right time for kissin'
But night time is my time for just reminiscin'
Regrettin' instead of forgettin' with somebody else.

There'll be no one unless that someone is you
I intend to be independently blue.

I want your love but I don't wanna borrow
To have it today and give back tomorrow
My love is your love, there's no love for nobody else, nobody else.

Oh yeah.

(Love me, baby)
(Leave me, baby)
(I can't no one else)

There'll be no one unless that someone is you
I intend to be independently blue.

I want your love but I don't wanna to borrow
To have it today and give back tomorrow
My love is your love, there's no love for nobody else
There's no love for nobody else
My love is your love, honest honey
My love is your love, honest honey
'Cause I love you babe, I love you babe
I love you baby!

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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."
