This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
If this isn't what you see
It doesn't make you blind
Yea, if this doesn't make you feel
It doesn't mean you've died
Where the river's high
Where the river's high
If you don't want to be seen
Well you don't have to hide
And if you don't want to believe
Well you don't have to try to feel alive, yea
Alive in the superunknown
Alive in the superunknown
Alive in the superunknown
First it steals your mind and then it steals your
If this doesn't make you free
It doesn't mean you're tied
If this doesn't take you down
It doesn't mean you're high
If this doesn't make you smile
Yea, you don't have to cry
If this isn't making sense
Yea, it doesn't make it lies, oh
Alive in the superunknown
Alive in the superunknown
Alive in the superunknown
First it steals your mind and then it steals your soul, oh
Get yourself afraid
Get yourself alone
Get yourself contained
Get yourself control, control
Yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, oh
(Alive in the superunknown)
First it steals your mind and then it steals your
First it steals your mind and then it steals your
First it steals your mind and then it steals your soul
It doesn't make you blind
Yea, if this doesn't make you feel
It doesn't mean you've died
Where the river's high
Where the river's high
If you don't want to be seen
Well you don't have to hide
And if you don't want to believe
Well you don't have to try to feel alive, yea
Alive in the superunknown
Alive in the superunknown
Alive in the superunknown
First it steals your mind and then it steals your
If this doesn't make you free
It doesn't mean you're tied
If this doesn't take you down
It doesn't mean you're high
If this doesn't make you smile
Yea, you don't have to cry
If this isn't making sense
Yea, it doesn't make it lies, oh
Alive in the superunknown
Alive in the superunknown
Alive in the superunknown
First it steals your mind and then it steals your soul, oh
Get yourself afraid
Get yourself alone
Get yourself contained
Get yourself control, control
Yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, oh
(Alive in the superunknown)
First it steals your mind and then it steals your
First it steals your mind and then it steals your
First it steals your mind and then it steals your soul

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."

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
Unfortunately, I think this song is about drugs. I didn't for years, I agreed with the whole life thing.. But that line at the end, were it steals your soul, it never sat right with me. I remember listening to this for the first time (that's how much of an impact soundgarden had on me, I don't remember the first time listening many songs at all) I was so into it.. The limitless feeling it tells you have, then, at the end, you lose your soul. I was like wait, why? Why so negative after so much positive energy? After recently learning that Chris Cornell was a heroin addict, I've taken that into account when trying to decipher some of the most cryptic and mysterious music ever written. From what I can see, he often refers to heroin as water. So.... All of the if this isn't something, doesn't mean it's not opposite lines create a sense of limitless possibilities, yes. While the river's high: when you got good heroin. The superunkown is the point after you've shot up and realised that you're still alive, that you feel amazing and capable of anything. So, yes, the song is a celebration of life, but at the end, you're addicted.
@D_Psi4or BULLSHIT.
@D_Psi4or <br /> if this isn't what you see, <br /> It doesn't make you blind... <br /> <br /> You just see something else, no need to get emotional...
@D_Psi4or The song tells us that we are free to see things from different points of view, and that our point of view won't automatically invalidate another. So we can all choose the meaning that we want to believe. <br /> <br /> Anyway, that's the greatness about songwriting. The song may be about jellybeans and unicorns for what we know, but it's written in a way generic enough for everyone to come up with different ideas they get from it, because everyone has gone trough different stuff and so sees and feels and believes in the song; and sharing this thoughts only makes everyone's opinion even richer.<br /> <br /> There's a chinese proverb that goes:<br /> "If two man walking on a road, each with one bread, cross their paths and exchange their breads, they leave with one bread each.<br /> If two man walking on a road, each with one idea, cross their paths and exchange their idea, they leave with two ideas each."
