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.
Some feel the excitement of boredom...
some don't...
but one day you will step outside
and you will feel the heat...
You hear the sirens of death and they sound afraid
We're back where we were ten years ago
and I'm feeling like I'm starting my old life from new
This is your last chance...
What's on your mind?
Nothing I'm gonna die for nothing!
Nothing else that matters...
but what do you want from me?
Anti-fashion seems to be fashion too by now
I don't need stupid policemen taking care about me
I don't need anyone!
I take it all by myself! Myself!
Can you hear me? Can You Hear Me?
Tell me the truth you fuckface!
I'm gonna kill anyone for more!
Suck me up for a better reason and I'm gonna cut you short...
If only technology keeps moving you forward
and you're not prepared for the future
you become a naive child left in an information overload unit...
What's holding us back is time!
World leaders choose world leaders...
not us, not democracy, not a revolution!
time to stop the germanization of the planet...
I've a fear of a white planet...
I redefine the enemy! redefine the enemy!
I have to redefine the enemy! redefine the enemy!
Redefine the enemy! Redefine the enemy!
I broke the ice and I drowned
they want you dead but alive enough to function!
Everything gets out of control
but what do you do? tonight?
Let's get back on the street
start living again...
Anything worth having is worth fighting for!
It's important that the future is on our side!
on my side...
white house and white snow...
The final moment has come...
It's all over!
It seems that you still have power in reserve...
but we are winning ...
Are you praying in your despair?
I redefine the enemy.
I redefine the enemy.
I redefine the enemy.
I've got to redefine the enemy!
Here I come! Don't bother me!
there's nothing we can do!
It's not my style to just wait to be killed!
I'll wipe you all out!
Now is the chance... I'm covered in a blue shadow...
I fear no longer...
I fear no longer...
I fear no longer...
I Redefine the enemy! Redefine the enemy...
I Redefine the enemy! Redefine the enemy...
I've got to Redefine the enemy...
Redefine the enemy...
Redefine the enemy...
some don't...
but one day you will step outside
and you will feel the heat...
You hear the sirens of death and they sound afraid
We're back where we were ten years ago
and I'm feeling like I'm starting my old life from new
This is your last chance...
What's on your mind?
Nothing I'm gonna die for nothing!
Nothing else that matters...
but what do you want from me?
Anti-fashion seems to be fashion too by now
I don't need stupid policemen taking care about me
I don't need anyone!
I take it all by myself! Myself!
Can you hear me? Can You Hear Me?

Suck me up for a better reason and I'm gonna cut you short...

Redefine the enemy...
Redefine the enemy...

Little Feat
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”
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
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."
