I'm breathing for the first time, 'cause you were all that's on my mind
And I can't hear your voice
I'm singing for the first time, 'cause I can't sleep on winter nights
Without you by my side

Singing your chorus, and I hope that you hear my words
'cause they are all that's holding me to you right now
So tell me that I'm alright, so I can sleep tonight
In this bed that we share, I lie alone

As the wind beats against my skin, I'll pray for your return
'cause each moment feels like a lifetime to me

To me

Look at my eyes can't you see that I want you
Can't help the way I react, it's who I am
And I can't apologise for that, just look at my eyes

Singing your chorus, and I hope that you hear my words
'cause they are all that's holding me to you right now
So tell me that I'm alright, so I can sleep tonight
In this bed that we share, I lie alone

And I still hear every word that you said to me
And I still hear your voice in my mind, it's crystal clear
Now that you're gone, all I'm left with is silence
I will be always waiting for you

I will, I'll always wait for you
I'll always wait for you
I'll always wait for you

And, now, you've got me caught
On every single word that's leaving your lips (that's leaving your lips)
Every, every word is yours

And, now, you've got me caught
On every single word that's leaving your lips (that's leaving your lips)
Every, every word is yours

May the angels lead you home
May the angels lead you home

May the angels lead you home, back home to me
May the angels lead you home, back home to me

May the angels lead you home

Singing (screaming) your chorus, and I hope that you hear my words (hope you hear my words)
'cause they are all that's holding me to you right now
So tell me that I'm alright (So tell me I'm alright), so I can sleep tonight (so I can sleep tonight)
In this bed that we share, I lie alone

I lie alone, I'm lying here alone
I'm lying here alone

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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."

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
