This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Come to my window
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
Come to my window
I'll be home soon
I would dial the numbers
Just to listen to your breath
I would stand inside my hell
And hold the hand of death
You don't know how far I'd go
To ease this precious ache
You don't know how much I'd give
Or how much I can take
Just to reach you
Just to reach you
Oh to reach you
Come to my window
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
Come to my window, I'll be home soon
Keeping my eyes open
I cannot afford to sleep
Giving away promises
I know that I can't keep
Nothing fills the blackness
That has seeped into my chest
I need you in my blood
I am forsaking all the rest
Just to reach you
Just to reach you
Oh to reach you, oh
Come to my window
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
Come to my window, I'll be home soon
I don't care what they think
I don't care what they say
What do they know about this love
Anyway
Come, come to my window
I'll be home, I'll be home, I'll be home
I am coming home
Come to my window, oh-ho
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
Come to my window, I'll be home soon
I'll be home, I'll be home
I am coming home
Come to my window, oh ho
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
Come to my window
I'll be home soon
I'll be home, I'll be home, I'll be home
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
Come to my window
I'll be home soon
I would dial the numbers
Just to listen to your breath
I would stand inside my hell
And hold the hand of death
You don't know how far I'd go
To ease this precious ache
You don't know how much I'd give
Or how much I can take
Just to reach you
Just to reach you
Oh to reach you
Come to my window
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
Come to my window, I'll be home soon
Keeping my eyes open
I cannot afford to sleep
Giving away promises
I know that I can't keep
Nothing fills the blackness
That has seeped into my chest
I need you in my blood
I am forsaking all the rest
Just to reach you
Just to reach you
Oh to reach you, oh
Come to my window
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
Come to my window, I'll be home soon
I don't care what they think
I don't care what they say
What do they know about this love
Anyway
Come, come to my window
I'll be home, I'll be home, I'll be home
I am coming home
Come to my window, oh-ho
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
Come to my window, I'll be home soon
I'll be home, I'll be home
I am coming home
Come to my window, oh ho
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
Come to my window
I'll be home soon
I'll be home, I'll be home, I'll be home

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."

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
i was first introduced to this song by south park, in an episode where cartman's mother is messing around with a house-mover. now i what i can say is that those guys really spoiled this song for me. it's such a beautiful and powerful song, love it.
in her autobiography she tells the story behind this song. she was on tour oversees away from her partner. she was trying her hardest to keep their relationship intact but julie was slipping and melissa could feel it. "i would dial the numbers just to listen to your breath" they would be on the phone for hours without saying a word, but listening to julie's breath let her know that she still was holding on. she said she wrote this song for julie as a "hey wait for me to finish doing my thing and then we can do our thing" and said that julie never liked the song. also she claims that this song isn;t about love, it's about desperatly trying to save a love that is inevitably crumbling. check our her autobiography, it talks all about it.
theres really no hidden meaning to this song.
its prety obvious.
she has fallen deeply in love with somebody that is really not accepted my some people.
thats how i take the whole some to my window thing.
crawl inside/ wait by the light of the moon is kinda like she has to kinda kepp this a secret.
but then i dont care what they think/ i dont care what they say/ what do they abou this love anyway. is talking about the fact that she is involved in a lesbain relationship
It's a gay love song and it was a huge gay anthem when it was released in 1994. The lyrics "I don't care what they think/I don't care what they say/What do they know about this love anyway" seals it's meaning. She's saying she doesn't care what straight society thinks anymore and they'll never understand anyway so F them. It was very powerful lyrics for it's time.
I guess it could be a song about addiction but has Melissa Etheridge ever dealt with Drug addiction? She's a supporter of medicinal marijuana but that seems to have come up when she got cancer. Other than that I had been under the impression for the last two years that it was her "coming out" song where she expresses her struggles in lesbian romance.
Anyways, until maybe three years ago I honestly did not even know that Melissa Etheridge was a lesbian (super conservative parents, sheltered life, etc. etc.) but I had heard this song and to me it is and always has been about forbidden love. Apparently she claims that it's not but the verse "I don't care what they think. I don't care what they say. What do they know about this love anyway?" Always struck me as she was in love with someone that was frowned upon. This does not necessarily mean a lesbian relationship (though in this scenario with Melissa Etheridge I suppose that is the case) or a male-male relationship but any relationship that may be considered taboo (Depending on who's watching and where in the country mixed race, mixed economic background, I think there are still places where you can find families that are feuding with children in Romeo and Juliet type scenarios, etc).
I get it now I think. It's not about love or drug addiction. It's about feeling trapped. She's stuck inside this cage (symbolic of how she had to suppress her lesbian stature from the media and outside world) and "the come to my window" line is her hope that someone comes to keep her company not necessarily love but just someone she can open up to so she doesn't feel so alone. "Nothing fills the blackness that has seeped inside my chest" this represents the doubt and loneliness she feels. She wants to come out but society's perspective of her sexuality has made her question herself and doubt if she should and she feels lonely for reasons already stated. "Promises that I can't keep" Probably relationships she's had in the past where she just hasn't been able to fulfill something that was necessary in the relationship for it to work. Probably a lesbian relationship where not coming out into the open destroyed the bond between them.
this song rocks.
oh my...the things love can drive us to. this song is about wanting so unbelievably badly to be with someone that you can't stand it.
My favorite Melissa Etheridge song. It's simple and touching.
Oh, the crazy things we do for love. I adore the "I don't care" segment. <3
I called my ex one day, when we were still together, and sang this song to her....
