Everyday he plays the game per se
He's got them running around
Will they fall to the ground everytime

Life inside, he's got something to hide
Right now he's angry, denied
With a reason so don't wonder why

You're past your prime

Know what they've said is what I've done
Killed my respect for everyone
I've come this far
Not going back this time

Take a gun, they're only there for fun
It must be a movie or song
If it's right or it's wrong, it's a sign

Point the blame, violence in life's the same
And with no reason for that
We just make up the facts everytime

Make fun the crime

Know what they've said is what I've done
Killed my respect for everyone
I've come this far
Not going back this time

Know what they've said is what I've done
You can't be sure, you never know
I've come this far
Not going back this time

Hey! You've got your own opinion
Got your own opinion
You decide

Hey! You've got your own opinion
Got your own opinion
You decide

Everyday he plays the game per se
He's got them running around
Will they fall to the ground everytime

Life inside, he's got something to hide
Right now he's angry, denied
With a reason so don't wonder why

You're past your prime

Know what they've said is what I've done
Killed my respect for everyone
I've come this far
Not going back this time

Know what they've said is what I've done
You can't be sure, you never know
I've come this far
Not going back this time

Hey! Not going back this time
Hey! Not going back this time
Hey! Not going back this time

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
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 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."
