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.
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
I wanna know your name
I never knew that love could put a spell on me
Then you walked into the room
What to do
Should I let my package show
Or should I try and play it cool
I've been foolin'
I've been playin'
For so long my heart's been waitin'
To finally love someone like you
Now my heart's anticipatin'
All the love we could be makin'
I gotta get this message through
(Chorus)
I wanna know your name
I wanna know everything about you
Driving me insane
I wanna know your name
How can I let you know
I wanna get right next to you
Checkin' the way you flow
I wanna know your name
Tell me now
Where have you been all my life
Are you real or just a dream
You know I'm down
Anything you want to do
So won't you come and go with me
I can't take it
Please don't fake it
Here's my heart
Now don't you break it
'Cause you know I'm all about you
I am itchin'
Can't deny it
There's no creams out there can't fight it
What can I say, what can I do
(Chorus)
I want you
I need you
I really like to please you
You got it
I need it
It's time that you believe it
You lookin' so fine tonight, baby
I just wanna drive you around in my Viper
Yeah
We gonna speed through town, the top down
Your legs straddling the seat
Oh man
What's your name, what's your name, what's your name
I wanna know your name
What's your name, what's your name
What's your name, what's your name
(Chorus 2x)
What's your name, what's your name
What's your name, what's your name
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
I wanna know your name
I never knew that love could put a spell on me
Then you walked into the room
What to do
Should I let my package show
Or should I try and play it cool
I've been foolin'
I've been playin'
For so long my heart's been waitin'
To finally love someone like you
Now my heart's anticipatin'
All the love we could be makin'
I gotta get this message through
(Chorus)
I wanna know your name
I wanna know everything about you
Driving me insane
I wanna know your name
How can I let you know
I wanna get right next to you
Checkin' the way you flow
I wanna know your name
Tell me now
Where have you been all my life
Are you real or just a dream
You know I'm down
Anything you want to do
So won't you come and go with me
I can't take it
Please don't fake it
Here's my heart
Now don't you break it
'Cause you know I'm all about you

What's your name, what's your name
What's your name, what's your name

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."

"Zombie" is about the ethno-political conflict in Ireland. This is obvious if you know anything of the singer (Dolores O'Riordan)'s Irish heritage and understood the "1916" Easter Rising reference.
"Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken
-
Another mother's breaking
Heart is taking over"
Laments the Warrington bomb attacks in which two children were fatally injured on March 23rd, 1993. Twelve year old Tim Parry was taken off life support with permission from his mother after five days in the hospital, virtually braindead.
"But you see it's not me
It's not my family"
References how people who are not directly involved with the violence feel about it. They are "zombies" without sympathy who refuse to take action while others suffer.
