There's nothing here but the distance
There's nothing here but the mess
If you'd have shut up you'd have heard it
You could have put it to rest
I am swelling and eager
I am the raging sea
I have had it up to here now
I'm so tired of your needs
And how does it feel to be on the fault-line?
And how do we heal now we're on the decline?
'Cause it's a hell of a long way to fall just to learn to get up
And I'm not gonna forgive you for all of the things that you've done
There's nothing here but indifference
There's nothing here but the stress
These walls are stained with your moments
Something you want to confess?
You at the point of attachment
And all the things you believe
There's nothing left in the place but a reason to leave
And how does it feel to be on the fault line?
And how do we heal now we're on the decline?
'Cause it's a hell of a long way to fall just to learn to get up
And I'm not gonna forgive you for all of the things that you've done
There's nothing here but the mess
If you'd have shut up you'd have heard it
You could have put it to rest
I am swelling and eager
I am the raging sea
I have had it up to here now
I'm so tired of your needs
And how does it feel to be on the fault-line?
And how do we heal now we're on the decline?
'Cause it's a hell of a long way to fall just to learn to get up
And I'm not gonna forgive you for all of the things that you've done
There's nothing here but indifference
There's nothing here but the stress
These walls are stained with your moments
Something you want to confess?
You at the point of attachment
And all the things you believe
There's nothing left in the place but a reason to leave
And how does it feel to be on the fault line?
And how do we heal now we're on the decline?
'Cause it's a hell of a long way to fall just to learn to get up
And I'm not gonna forgive you for all of the things that you've done

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."
I Can't Go To Sleep

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.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
From the band:
Lyrically, ‘The Mess’ felt very easy to write. We didn’t really have to discuss the lyrics. They just came out. It felt natural. The song is a fierce dialogue between two people but it’s not specific. It finishes without any resolve but that’s because I think that despite what people claim in these kinds of arguments, they aren’t really trying to resolve anything, they’re just angry, hurt and catastrophising. – Thom
I think for the most part this song is pretty self-explanatory: It's a duet about a couple that cannot get over the problems they are having in their relationship. Both are aware that they're relationship is coming to an end and they are now expressing their frustrations about what their relationship has come down to - stress, indifference, a whole lot of anger and resent; a mess. There are a couple of lines in the second verse that aren't as clear, which I will try to clarify.
"These walls are stained with your moments" - I think this is talking about how the negative memories that each partner has left behind are now associated with the space they are in, perhaps the place where they each live. It's like they can't escape those problems even there.
The male lead then sings "Something you want to confess" - This line is a response to the above line. I think it is pertaining to whatever "moments" there are of theirs that are "staining the walls." Perhaps there is a feeling of guilt for the marks they have left behind that they feel need to be spoken.
"You at the point of attachment of all the things you believe" - I think this is saying that both of them are attached to their own ideas of what the other has done wrong. Obviously, they are unable to let these things go, because the next line is "There's nothing left in this place but a reason to leave."
"How does it feel to feel to be on the fault line?" An amazing lyric. For me, this song is about that 2nd last argument before the end, anger on both sides finally coming to the surface. Venting. "These walls are stained with your moments" ...It could be taken so many ways...casting shadows...I can't forget you....not being able to get over issues...etc. "This world is never enough" ....so much anger has never sounded so awesome... "So fucking through with it" Yep, that nails it. "I'm not going to forgive you for the the things that you've done" is so definitive and honest and real that...It sounds like an actual argument.
