This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
True love is a rose behind glass
That's locked and kept closed
Maybe just to me
'Cause my heart's been attacked
And shattered by tough love bad love
So I bought mine off the street
True love, man, it just can't be beat
I felt so complete
Married to heavenly bodies above
And each night I'd look up
At a bright honey moon
'Cause it sure seemed built to last
And even after my honeymoon passed
I kept right with it, man
Like a ghost to a house it once haunted
And day after day
I'd steal with my true love away
To some hideout we're left undisturbed
We could do what we wanted
But I started to feel like a liar
Saying I love you
She was madly in love or mad mean
There was no in between it raised my alarm
I found I can't make a stand
I'm her hired hand i have to do harm
One day I got sick
She played me a nasty old trick
Said, "I need cigarettes"
Walked 'round the block caught a cab
Stayed gone for too long
My love had gotten so strong
Just to try being back on my own
I had to go to rehab
All I need is a safe place to bleed
Is this where it's at? Half of no chance
Steps in a dance
Rest of my life spent in combat
Now I'm the king of the ward
'Cause I'm good and I swallow my sword
And puke it out for the doctor
To write me a new prescription
Tranquil as a dove
People that have lost their true love
They all seem to fit the same description
I feel cold, useless and old
I wish I was no one
Take me up, my Lord take me up today
Take me out of this place
Take me up with you today
That's locked and kept closed
Maybe just to me
'Cause my heart's been attacked
And shattered by tough love bad love
So I bought mine off the street
True love, man, it just can't be beat
I felt so complete
Married to heavenly bodies above
And each night I'd look up
At a bright honey moon
'Cause it sure seemed built to last
And even after my honeymoon passed
I kept right with it, man
Like a ghost to a house it once haunted
And day after day
I'd steal with my true love away
To some hideout we're left undisturbed
We could do what we wanted
But I started to feel like a liar
Saying I love you
She was madly in love or mad mean
There was no in between it raised my alarm
I found I can't make a stand
I'm her hired hand i have to do harm
One day I got sick
She played me a nasty old trick
Said, "I need cigarettes"
Walked 'round the block caught a cab
Stayed gone for too long
My love had gotten so strong
Just to try being back on my own
I had to go to rehab
All I need is a safe place to bleed
Is this where it's at? Half of no chance
Steps in a dance
Rest of my life spent in combat
Now I'm the king of the ward
'Cause I'm good and I swallow my sword
And puke it out for the doctor
To write me a new prescription
Tranquil as a dove
People that have lost their true love
They all seem to fit the same description
I feel cold, useless and old
I wish I was no one
Take me up, my Lord take me up today
Take me out of this place
Take me up with you today

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
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."

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
This song to me is about Elliott Smiths search for love. The idea that the only love he can reach is that of drugs. Its the only love that doesn't leave him. Until all the drugs he used made him ill "One day I got sick, She played me a nasty old trick" So he takes leaves his true love, drugs, although they were his lover, he found it hard to live without them. "My love had gotten too strong" So at the end, he has no true love and is drugged up by doctors who just treat him like all the others. He just wants to go someone where he belongs, perhaps the afterlife.
God rest Elliott smiths sole. Lets hope he's home now.
