Somebody stepped inside your soul
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control
You think it's easier
To put your finger on the trouble
When the trouble is you
And you think it's easier
To know your own tricks
Well, it's the hardest thing you'll ever do
I have a will for survival
So you can hurt me
And then hurt me some more
I can live with denial
But you're not my troubles anymore
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control
You think it's easier
To give up on the trouble
If the trouble is destroying you
And you think it's easier
But before you throw me a rope
It was the one thing I could hold on to
I have a will for survival
So you can hurt me
And then hurt me some more
I can live with denial
But you're not my troubles anymore
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control
God knows it's not easy
Taking on the shape of someone else's pain
God now you can see me
I'm naked and I'm not afraid
My body's sacred and I'm not ashamed
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control
You think it's easier
To put your finger on the trouble
When the trouble is you
And you think it's easier
To know your own tricks
Well, it's the hardest thing you'll ever do
I have a will for survival
So you can hurt me
And then hurt me some more
I can live with denial
But you're not my troubles anymore
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control
You think it's easier
To give up on the trouble
If the trouble is destroying you
And you think it's easier
But before you throw me a rope
It was the one thing I could hold on to
I have a will for survival
So you can hurt me
And then hurt me some more
I can live with denial
But you're not my troubles anymore
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control
God knows it's not easy
Taking on the shape of someone else's pain
God now you can see me
I'm naked and I'm not afraid
My body's sacred and I'm not ashamed
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Somebody stepped inside your soul
Little by little they robbed and stole
Till someone else was in control

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
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."
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“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.
What is interesting you know in England everyone wants to be American. There is a distinct celtic style it's not British or anything other than Irish. And U2 wants to be American, intentionally American, but they can't quite escape what they are, stylistically.
Apparently I have to explain why I will make so much money hackers, even a lot of the lyrics on DSOTM are fucking American poets.
U2 can't escape the Irish style even if they don't embrace it.
The troubles will never go away until they get out of their head.
@bkabbott Either my lack of grammer, was quite unbecoming, or Briton wankers voted my comment down.<br /> <br /> British rock is charecterized by a love of American blues artistits. That is the alpha, maybe the Omega is the sex pistols, but by then everyone does every thing ala Neil Young. Young did it to be relevent, though you know he loved the Pistols. <br /> <br /> The Troubles are a metaphor personally for how the British affected them in the troubles; being a metaphor for personal tribulations. Of course once they were climbing their goals, economically.<br /> <br /> I heard some great contemporary and older Irish music on GPR recently. It was amazing - the newer stuff didn't lose the celtic touch - and it was much heavier than this song. <br /> <br /> I wish U2 would embrace this influence more strongly.<br />
@bkabbott <br /> <br /> I am "Irish American" and the Irish would say on St. Pat's here "you're not Irish you're bloody American". <br /> <br /> Obviously this song is a metaphor for what happened in Ireland and I was trying to tie into this metaphor but I was very drunk and did a poor job (and then after watching the British Office on Netflix and realizing that wanker meant "douche bag" and "faggot" - two words that carry extremely strong connotations in America besides the literal meaning - two words that equal the offensiveness of the word to British people.<br /> <br /> Anyways I was drunk didn't make sense the metaphor ties into their personal lives it is very personal for them and I shouldn't have commented. But again I was very drunk and off the clock so I did.
@bkabbott I'm sorry for this comment. I have Schizophrenia and there was a medical interaction between alcohol and my Schizophrenic brain.<br /> <br /> I sound like an idiot but I love Irish music. In Savannah, GA there is an NPR podcast called The Green Island. It is hosted by an Irish immigrant who taught me soccer.<br /> <br /> Staffcasts, Inc will have an office in Dublin for European musicians. It will be appropriate for me to post YouTube concerts of all Irish musicians because I will post YouTube concerts of all musicians, with the intent of getting people an audience, as an American who will avoid political subjects.
@bkabbott I'm terribly ashamed by all of my comments on Song Meanings.<br /> <br /> They are all terrible.<br /> <br /> Here's a secret - on top law schools I posted under scalawag and I did more justice to Steely Dan then I did on here.
@bkabbott Final comment, the British The Office was much better than the American Office. I learned that wanker is so offensive it means 'douche bag' and 'faggot' (those are two words common at an American military school I went to.<br /> <br /> If I date Welch, British, Scottish or Irish girls I won't use their slang. If I date a Gen Z girl, as a millennial I will use Gen Z slang sparingly. Like pretty much not at all. Gen Z girls use it tastefully and guys just pervert the slang :).<br /> <br /> Most important of all I can't go through every single comment I posted.<br /> <br /> I'm a Schizophrenic. No way to sugar coat it. :)<br /> <br /> Everybody listen to Billy Strings, Heart Beat of America - "look over there"
