This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I've been waiting for so long
I've been hoping your love's not gone
Houses are sliding in the mud
Rivers are raging in your blood
Where would I be without your love?
Where would I be without your arms around me?
You want to be the only one
If I knew you I would not run
You have been cloudy, distant, dark
I'm thinking of Noah and the ark
Where would I be without your love?
Where would I be without your arms around me?
Where would I be without your love?
Where would I be without your arms around me?
I've been hoping your love's not gone
Houses are sliding in the mud
Rivers are raging in your blood
Where would I be without your love?
Where would I be without your arms around me?
You want to be the only one
If I knew you I would not run
You have been cloudy, distant, dark
I'm thinking of Noah and the ark
Where would I be without your love?
Where would I be without your arms around me?
Where would I be without your love?
Where would I be without your arms around me?

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.
to me this song perfectly describes my rock relationship with my religion and god.
to me it's about, like someone else said, coming to terms with god. there's sort of a reference to a prodigal son-esque thing with "i've been hoping your love's not gone". the feeling of not being worthy of god's love and feeling like you are too depraved to be loved.
the next part refers to the ancient problem of evil. natural disasters happen and the writer sees suffering and the rivers 'raging' in god's blood. the idea of an angry and malevolent god. but then he retracts this in the chorus saying "where would i be without your love" and "your arms around me" saying despite these bad things that happen, perhaps it's not your doing, but it's your love that keeps me sane through all this trial.
in the second verse he says "you want to be the center of my life" ad meiorem dei gloriam. you want me to do all things for your good. the next line is questioning his faith. i believe but sometimes that feels like it isn't enough. if i KNEW you i wouldn't run, but you've been "cloudy" and occasionally in my life you've been "distant and dark" so i'm incapable of truly knowing you. and he again harkens back to the idea of god's wrath, this time more specifically with a reference to noah and the ark where of course god purified the world through killing the evil people who were still people.
then he comes around again saying despite the evil, i don't think it's your fault, and you, god, are the only thing that can get me through. i'd be lost without god.
