This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Your wish is my command!
Have you heard this talk about eye contact
Gonna be the downfall of this town.
First the photographs take you to the right hands.
Leads you to the authority mold.
[Chorus:]
Paranoia will write the world prayer
Make sure that you fit in the right holes
But when you take his offer, you're done for,
Done for, oh!
Phantoms in pockets, we're in panic,
Making order in total disgust
Oh, they read a list of all who cannot stay
Take you down, on the ground.
[Chorus]
Make sure you learn to beware your neighbor
Bolt the doors and hire your guards
Suck your life with their virus called language
Someone told you this all would go down.
And the last thing you see is the luster,
Hold the razor, goodbye to your friends
Would your underground please call the mayor,
Call the neighbor, call your friends.
[Chorus]
Well, when he first saw you, you'd need no protection
I train my eyes on your mouth, you'll learn to take him.
Hmmm. It's a brand new power.
My friends had her questions right
Beware your neighbor
Haven't you heard, haven't you heard
That we're done for. Oh.
Learn to beware your neighbor
And the right mode
Haven't you heard?
Haven't you heard,
That we're done for, done for?
When I count down from ten
You'll feel the lead in your lids
You'll have no need to exist
And wake up refreshed
Hah!
Have you heard this talk about eye contact
Gonna be the downfall of this town.
First the photographs take you to the right hands.
Leads you to the authority mold.
[Chorus:]
Paranoia will write the world prayer

But when you take his offer, you're done for,
Done for, oh!
Phantoms in pockets, we're in panic,
Making order in total disgust
Oh, they read a list of all who cannot stay
Take you down, on the ground.

Would your underground please call the mayor,
Call the neighbor, call your friends.

You'll have no need to exist
And wake up refreshed
Hah!

@[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
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."

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
Mmm...this song does not sound very happy to me. Is this about society or organized religion perhaps? Let's discuss the meaning of this instead of stating, "His voice sounds sexy as usual, yum yumzzzzz." Any ideas?
there's a part in this song where jeff sounds sooo sexy...where he goes "mmmm...it's a band new power", he is a god....
That he is, and oh so sexy.
I love this song, he sounds so happy. I love it.
This song was a demo, but it is very promising. Who knows what it could've become.
It's still great as it is.
how hot is he to girls. is he like a 10? or what.
turjake2, this one goes to eleven.

EXCELLENT! this could be about how people will be trained to read people through...like lie detectors and hypnosis. When one can tell someone's lying because he looks away, or looks up and to the right. He was brilliant!!!! It's almost like the state we live in now, and will live in soon. "beware your neighbor" either trust your neighbor like Loose Tounge implies or beware because he/she will sell you out, cheat you out to the government. The ending, so wonderful, it is hypnosis!!! I am so pleased with the lyrics because I've been listening to this song for so long and have been so in love, because yes he sounds sexy and intelligent...but the lyrics, my god what social commentary! I love this man! My thoughts on the song as a whole, I have not really fully understood his implications, but that's what I have so far! so great, im so pleased.
I'm also surprised this song has been overlooked...it's really my favorite Jeff Buckley song, if one can have a favorite indeed. the lyrics are the most poetic Ive heard from this album...(or not the most, but they have caught my eye) and the rhythm of the song, how it goes an octive higher right before "my friend had her questions right" ahhh, my god...i could listen to this for hours and have some bittersweet emotion because he sounds so...sexy, joyous...but it is some sort of social commentary in disguise...i mean isn't that what we all want? Social commentary wrapped in Jeff Buckley's voice? nothing better. beautiful
this song definitely has to do with not being able to trust the government and how jaded people are when it comes to their friends, not realizing that their friends won't help them take a stand against unjust authoratative figures, they'd more than likely sell you out to save themselves when faced with the fire of the truth, "and the last thing you see is the lustre, hold the razor goodbye to your friends" the lustre being the hope or what one thought they would see, the razor is the truth, this truth that cuts you away from what you thought you saw what you thought you knew, the razor, the truth that separates you from your friends....
That's what I get from this song. And mmmmm I love his sexy voice LOL. It's almost hard to listen to his songs and be serious because I fall into swoon mode. LOL
