This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Failed coercion
Leads to intrusion
And the blood forever runs
In her head
Into her hands
Between her legs
Where his mind lies
Power drives him in
To murder innocence
On the rack of his devices
Vices and designs
She will never scrub the stains
From her arms
From her neck
From her legs
Dirt will remain
As a reminder
Of his hateful face
Reach in
Rip apart the inner fibers
Of her soul
Boy you'll never know how it feels
To fear the shame
Feel free to walk down
Any dark street without fear
Without shame no one is
Going to touch you
And you don't need protection
She shouldn't need protection!
And you can sit there
With that stupid smile on your face
And try to convince me that you care
Defined by your power
Defined by her body
The innocence she feels
Everybody else contains
It's lost it's gone
But I guess it doesn't matter anyway
Reach in
Rip apart the inner fibers
Of her soul
And you can sit there
With that stupid smile on your face
And try to convince me that you care
Defined by your power
Defined redefined fucked tortured and discarded
And if he ever cares
Maybe he will feel ashamed
For everything he's stolen
For all the trust she gave
Possessed and broken
She cries but it's not our problem
Pull down your goddamn blinds
He will never think he's wrong
She will never feel quite right
You will never think he's wrong
You will never think you're wrong
She will never feel quite right
Leads to intrusion
And the blood forever runs
In her head
Into her hands
Between her legs
Where his mind lies
Power drives him in
To murder innocence
On the rack of his devices
Vices and designs
She will never scrub the stains
From her arms
From her neck
From her legs
Dirt will remain
As a reminder
Of his hateful face
Reach in
Rip apart the inner fibers
Of her soul
Boy you'll never know how it feels
To fear the shame
Feel free to walk down
Any dark street without fear
Without shame no one is

And you don't need protection
She shouldn't need protection!
And you can sit there
With that stupid smile on your face
And try to convince me that you care

It's lost it's gone

You will never think he's wrong
You will never think you're wrong
She will never feel quite right

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”
Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
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
“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.
this is obviously about rape. its such a cowardly act that a guy who cant get laid carries out. stories like this sicken me especially since a friend of mine was raped and is now taking care of a baby.
