This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
So what's wrong with me, I can't sleep
Pull these bedsheets over me and let me be
With broken hearts and black and blues
I' m shivering because I wondered what you'd think
If I didn't break and made a change for you
It feels like
The first time
That I am standing on my own,
And I'm not wasted tonight, not wasted tonight
It takes a part of me, can't you see?
I'm pushing through your tidal waves, so I can breathe
With no regrets, so bittersweet
I'm holding on because I waited for your call
If you care at all, I will wait for you
Tonight I throw myself into, this blanket of relief
Where I can get release, but you can't understand
What's happening to me, and these songbirds in between
Sing anthems out to you
Pull these bedsheets over me and let me be
With broken hearts and black and blues
I' m shivering because I wondered what you'd think
If I didn't break and made a change for you
It feels like
The first time
That I am standing on my own,
And I'm not wasted tonight, not wasted tonight
It takes a part of me, can't you see?
I'm pushing through your tidal waves, so I can breathe
With no regrets, so bittersweet
I'm holding on because I waited for your call
If you care at all, I will wait for you
Tonight I throw myself into, this blanket of relief
Where I can get release, but you can't understand
What's happening to me, and these songbirds in between
Sing anthems out to you

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
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”
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."
