Fall down
Can't pick myself up off the ground
Head down
I see catastrophe
And it's right in front of me

Mother, father, please don't me choose between you
I love both of you
Mother, please, all I want to be is just little me
Father, please, all I want to be is you're son
No fair

Trespass the tiny mind of a child
Despair
In my world surrounds me
It's immerse me
Rips right through me
Remember

The day they told me, I'm so scared
Suffer
My wounds not healing
Mother, please, all I want to be is just little me
Father, please, all I want to be is your son

Sometimes
In dark my mind will roam
To a time
I spent alone
As a child, as a small boy
As a child, as a small boy

I remember times as a child I knew
As for my love, I still see it
I remember times as a child I knew
Too many moralisists in my life
I knew times as a child I know
I looked into my father's eyes
I remember times as a child when I looked
And I screamed

I still scream, and I say
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me
Look at what you did to me
See what you did to me

I died that day
All I want to say

Mother, please, all I want to be is a little deep inside of you
Father, please, all I want to be is a little back inside of you

What now?
Fuck you!
What now?
Fuck you!
What now?
Fuck you!
What now?
Fuck you!
What now?
Fuck!

    This is about divorce. It's from the perspective of a child who is confussed. He also wishes he was never born when he says

    Mother please, all i want to be is a little deep inside of you Father please, all i want to be is a little me back inside of you .

    This is a pretty cool song.

    yes, these are one of my favorite mudvayne songs, and it's easy to tell it is about a divorce in a child's perspective.

    Mother father please dont make me choose between you-that line pretty much says it's obviously about divorce.

    actually, this is one of my favorate songs. i love the lyrics and the way there sung. my favorite part is mther please, all i want to be is a little deep inside of you Father please, all i want to be is a little me back inside of you. i bet a lot of kids could relate to that part. since a lot of younger children think its thir fault their parents split. a lot prolly wish they could die.

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

Holiday
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 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."

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
