Say goodbye
Lose your friends
Make them go
Don't need them around

Cause it's time
Lose your friends
Make them go
Was never supposed to be like this

They were too weak too prone to break
They're needs too deep their skin too thin
By now you took what was to take
Tear it apart and start again

So go on
If this will make you happier
It got you this far
Do what you have to

You've wasted
Every moment
Of your Saturdays
And your Sunday
You're wasted from the boredom
Was never supposed to be like this

Like your father said
Just do what was done unto you
Always in your father's steps
You'll do what was done unto you
It won't be hard to start again

So go on
If this will make you happier
It got you this far
Do what you have to

And you're gone now
( You've know this would come and you've left me alone )
And did it make you happier?
( You're lost and your gone. Don't take it so seriously )
Was it that hard?
( Go on and get going. I'm fine on my own )
Did what you had to
( It got you this far. Finally got it figured out )

One more inch
You son of a bitch
Been a waste of my time
Always
Now you're half awake
You bend till you break
And make the same mistakes
Always

So go on if this will make you happier
It got you this far
Do what you have to

And you're gone now
( You've know this would come and you've left me alone )
And did it make you happier?
( You're lost and your gone. Don't take it so seriously )
Was it that hard?
( Go on and get going. I'm fine on my own )
Did what you had to
( It got you this far. Finally got it figured out )

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.
