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.
I hear ya knock on my door
I ain't been saving this scene for ya honey
Don't wantcha ringin' my bell

Oh, it's my own true love, my my own
I could sail a river run dead, but I know it's dead
I could I wish for a million, yeah but I know it's dead
I could cry within the darkness, I sail away
I save a lifetime forever?
But you know, you know, you know what I say
And I say oh, it's my love
Oh, it's my own true love
Oh, it's my love
Oh, it's my own true love, my my own

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
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."

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
Whoever says Coda blows serious ass can suck my dick. This song is definately about Robert, Jimmy, John, or John being dumped and then the chick that dumped them is coming back and they have moved on.
I Agree with Big Basser, All Led is Great.

If you haven't got anything nice to say about LED ZEPPELIN - then keep your friggin mouth shut. Or I'll have to drop kick you in the face. This song vibes with the spirit of Led Zep.
i think its about getting rid of a once close person, and not wanting to see them anymore but they keep coming around and bugging you.
I have to say that if anybody thinks CODA sucks, they haven't listened to the whole album. "We're Gonna Groove" is awesome. It's too bad that they didn't include everything that they included on the Complete Studio Recordings version of CODA. "Baby Come On Home" is one of their greatest songs.
The line "i could sail a river run dead" is brutal. if a guy ever said that about me i would, as those with very little lives would say, "drop kick him in the face." they're basically saying i COULD give you a shot, honey, but youre just not worth my time and i dont care enough about you to try and make this work. I had this problem with a guy once. great guy, liked him a lot, but he was just such a jerk that i just didnt have the energy to try to make it work, he was freakin hopeless. sorry for the borin anecdote, but thats what this song means to me. its the sweetest form of satisfaction when you can look a person in the face and say, its pointless. and does anybody else like the "dont want you ringin my bell"?? you think thats literal?? =]
What does this song mean to you? humm it means Royal0rleans sucks ass
this song is awsome and SelectHickory if this song gives you a headache then you can't handle zeppelin
Selectexcrement is a tool...
