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”
"roll film!" screams scissor lips, prepping the flesh with his paper cut hiss. she couldnt breathe she couldnt speak as faceless vampires bled the rosy from her cheeks
scene one, enter junkyard j: the man with the used smile spits on his fingertips. swinging the sledgehammer he pounds his thunder kiss. and the crowd sin sings along to his victory song. pinned on the anvil her crown starts to flake. but thats what it takes to make the big make the big break!
cut camera! screams scissor lips. the screen god shuts. the audience gnaws their finger tips. stage hands hammer stakes to her hands and knees. the modern crucifixion legs parted in the shape of a v.
scene two: enter skin arms girls: camaro's disguised as tanks. pom pom's plazing rapid fire blanks. high fived, ruined lives, high fives, LA hives, high fives, high fives the theater wails like diseased violins, high heeled castanet clicks rape harmony. youth decays in 4/4 time.
scene three: this is the making of a hollywood queen. this christening of a legendary dream. this is your birth breath, this is your death sigh and nothing hurts quite like the first time.

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."
