Chemical

No One

It's hard to perceive
My mind is at ease
It's hard to believe
I don't feel a thing

Am I wrong to feel
Such bliss that ain't real
Can I keep this from
Taking over me

Fell into, this moment
And now the chemical is taking the
Inside right out of me
I found a mountain of pure endless energy
I keep telling myself it's not reality

Now I'm seeing, now I'm seeing
That the world around me is now changing
Once it was a break that I could keep
I tried to walk away but I CAN'T

Chorus

WHAT, What's inside my brain
What's breaking me down
What's inside this raging chemical?

Now it's time for me
To rest with ease
Now it's time
To allow my mind relief

But I can't stop
This feeling that I need
Can I keep this from taking over me?

Forget, all the regrets
As I indulge myself with every breath
Of this moment
Knowing I can't taste the beauty of life again
Without a chemical running through my head

Now I'm feeling, now I'm feeling
That the world around me's now changing
Once it was a break that I could keep
I tried to walk away but I can't

Chorus

I feel it....
I see it...
I need it...
So BRING, ITTTTT TO ME

Never again, never again
Will I
Feel the same, feel the same
About me
Can I begin, can I begin
To start this whole life ooverr...

Never again, never again
Will I
Walk the same, walk the same
Around here
Can I forget, can I forget
That what lives within mee...

Never again, never again
Will I
Breathe the same, breathe the same
Air in
I want to live, I want to live
But they say
Never, NEVER

Chorus

    Song Meaning

    The song is about the difficulty of quitting methamphetamine.

    "It's hard to believe I don't feel a thing" (after a few days of meth use, when the body's endorphines are depleted, the user experiences feelings of emotionlessness)

    "...bliss that ain't real" (the heightened level of euphoria caused by the increase in endorphine output from meth use)

    "I found a mountain of pure endless energy" (many meth users will stay up for days or even weeks at a time)

    "Once it was a break that I could keep" (he used to be able to control his drug use [pre-addiction])

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.

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."
