I am cornered... i am trapped....
Something inside my head just snapped!
Unlocked the inner beast, set out to feast
on the blood ,of the ones that i loved,
the ones that i hated,
But who the hell cares, lifes over-rated
Sick state of mind, happens all the time
Losing sanity but everything is fine
Set out to hunt the ones that i cared for,
tear 'em apart in a mad rage, violent, gore,
Everything happens so fast I CANT TAKE ANYMORE!!!!
I CUT MY WRIST, I WATCH THE BLOOD FLOW!
I'VE FINALLY SNAPPED, NOW YOU KNOW,
NOW YOU KNOW,
but really, what didja expect,
you knew from the start i was nothin' but a reject,
And you could tell, by the look in my eyes,
That i'm a junky freak that ain't a surprise
But the one true thing you never could tell,
My anger was rising like a bat outta hell
I've got the brain of psycho path,
See who gets the last laugh...
You see whats on the outside but do you know whats at the core?
An empty mess that CAN'T TAKE ANYMORE!!!!!
I CUT MY WRIST, I WATCH THE BLOOD FLOW!
I'VE FINALLY SNAPPED, NOW YOU KNOW,
NOW YOU KNOW,
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
i am alone....no one around.....
trapped in a vortex, no light, no sound,
floating in thin air, feet don't touch the ground,
I'M GONNA STAY HERE FOREVER, UNTIL I'M FOUND!!!!!
UNTIL I'M FOOOOOUND..... I'M FOOOOUUUUND, I'M........

    This song is about losing your mind, like wen everything goes wrong and you feel like you can't deal with it. This is just kind of a crazy song to scream out when you're pissed.

    That's what I did... it's more like mentally cutting, abusing yourself in your mind, leaving scars in your memories.... I think everyone has a point in life where they just wanna break down and scream at the world and lose respect for themselves and thats what this is about

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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 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."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
