This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
My misery has enjoyed company
And although I have ached, I don't threaten anybody
Sometimes I feel more bigness than I've shared with you (you)
Sometimes I wonder why I quell when I'm not required to.
I've tried to be small
I've tried to be stunted
I've tried roadblocks and all
My happy endings prevented.
Sometimes I feel it's all just too big to be true
I sabotage myself for fear of what my bigness could do.
Fear of bliss and fear of joyitude
Fear of bigness and ensuing solitude.
I could be golden
I could be glowing
I could be freedom
But that could be boring.
Sometimes I feel this is too scary to be true
I sabotage myself for fear of losing you.
Fear of bliss and fear of joyitude
Fear of bigness and ensuing solitude.
This talk of liberation makes me want to go lie down
Under the covers 'til the terror of the unknown is gone (gone).
I could be full
I could be thriving
I could be shining
Sounds isolating.
Sometimes I feel this is too good to be true
I sabotage myself for fear of what my joy could do.
Fear of bliss and fear of joyitude
Fear of bigness and ensuing solitude.
Fear of bliss and fear of joyitude
Fear of bigness and ensuing solitude.
(I tried to be small
I tried to be stunted
I tried roadblocks and all
My happy endings prevented.)
(Sometimes I feel it's all just too big to be true
I sabotage myself for fear of what my bigness could do.)

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."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
Well, I'd pretty much agree with you, yeah - it's like worrying what it would mean to be happy, to be in a state of bliss - because the further you go upwards emotionally, the further there is to fall, the more there is to lose...?
