The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Two Heads Are Better Than One
Well, I remember the sparks that flew
In the summer of '79
My brother went wild
For a pretty girl's smile
But he didn't care that she was mine
We fought each other
Like never before
And beat till we were black and blue
And when we told her it was time
She'd made up her mind
She said, "I've had it with the both of you"
That was when the pact was made, uh
No woman could sever
We swore it brother for the rest of our lives
We would stick together forever
Cause
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
(woo hoo hoo)
It's double the pleasure babe
It's triple the fun
I said
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
(better than one)
It'll make you come undone
Two heads are better than one
Well we found ourselves in Vegas
The city of sin
We were restless and looking to play
When this little blonde dolly
In the hotel lobby
Blew a kiss as she walked our way
She said, "I'm feelin kind of lonely"
And gave us a wink
Feeling bold we expressed our intentions
We said, "you gotta have both"
She said, "That's a joke."
"It takes two, just to get my attention"
Both to share and share alike, uh
That's a part of our lifestyle
So I'm gonna tell you baby
Just where we stand
If you won't love us both
It ain't what's wild
Because
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
(woo hoo hoo)
It's double the pleasure
Triple the fun
I said
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
It'll make you come undone
Two heads are better than one
We've come this far together
It's too late for turning back
But it's only fair to warn you
That when you rock with the boys
You never come back
(oh no)
Hey!
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
(woo hoo hoo)
It's double the pleasure
Triple the fun
I'll tell ya
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
(better than one)
It'll make you come undone
Nothing's better than
Two (two) heads (heads) are better than one
(woo hoo hoo)
It's double the pleasure babe
I'ts triple the fun
Two heads
Are better than one
(better than one)
It'll make you come undone
Two heads are better than one (one)
Two heads are better than one (one)
Two heads are better than one (one)
Whoa whoa whoa, baby
Two heads are better than one (one)
Two heads are better than one (one)
Two heads are better than one (one)

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."

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.
I meant, two heads are not better than one.
