You keep me trusting
When my hope has wandered away
You’d catch me if I fall out
Of what I fell in
You put the meaning
In my purpose
Time after time and time again

How can I stand here?
And not feel the least but guilty?
How can I stand here?
And not feel like I’m being selfish?
I’m keeping the world’s best trophy
In my showcase
And you approve of this
I am swimming in bliss
With you

CHORUS
Tell me where to go
Tell me where to hide
Tell me where I can be safe
Just tell me where to go
When everything is gone
Where should I go?

You calm the storms
That seem to mark the end
And when it all goes down
You can at least pretend
That we’re still standing
We’re still going strong
When we’re not

You give me meaning
Give me hope when
I feel like giving up on trusting
Give me light when it is dark
Give me all I need to go on

CHORUS

I’m not looking anymore
I’ve found what I was searching for
And she’s here with me; you’re here with me

You still the water when
It starts getting a little violent
And you tell me it’s okay
when most wouldn’t approve
But you pretend
And you give me hope

When trusting has lost its appeal
When my emotions give nothing to feel
Where should I go?
Tell me where to go
Because I always go to you
Is that what I should do?

CHORUS

You’re all I have that I can hold
You are where I want to be
You are everything to me
And I will never watch you walk away
You mean to much, you are too much
You give me too much hope
You give me too much comfort
This feels too good to go

You do it all but all I ask
Is that you
CHORUS

Mountain Song
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."

No Surprises
Radiohead
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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
