People like you are
The reason I keep the good so close
And here you are so impressed with yourself
I see right through you
I see right through you

How many people do you plan to burn?
And all the damage left at every turn
You watched us struggle
And now your parched with a thirst for attention
To fuel the fire of your self obsession
We'll watch you crumble
You are the scum of the world
And we'll watch you fall

People like you are
The reason I keep the good so close
And here you are so impressed with yourself
I see right through you
And we intend to
Let the world know the truth
Let the world know the truth

You sit there and smile so smug in your skin
Second and third chances gone in the wind
I lied, and I begged, I swore I would change
What do expect of me!
Fuck
You'll never know true unity

Look around you
Look around you
Everyone is terrified
One wrong move
One wrong move
And their dream won't survive

You said
"You better keep your fucking mouth shut I gotta close mine, and no time to lose."
Bow to the stronger element
The truth will outweigh you
All it took was a spark right?

People like you are
The reason I keep the good so close
And here you are so impressed with yourself
I see right through you
I see right through you
People like you are the reason I keep the good so close

People like you are
The reason I keep the good so close
And here you are so impressed with yourself
I see right through you
And we intend to
Let the world know the truth
Let the world know the truth

Watch your back when your out on the town tonight
At every corner I lurk in the dark like the shadow on these very walls
Put the man on trial
I bet he turn colors that he's never shown.
Put the man on trial
I bet he turn colors that he's never shown.

Watch your back when your out on the down tonight
At every corner I lurk in the dark like the shadow on these very walls

Put the man on trial
I bet he turn colors that he's never shown
Put the man on trial
I bet he turn colors that he's never shown.

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.
