Like cobbles in the pavement I'm starting to crack up
From all the pointless talking that I have given up
And I am giving things time to settle before I hate this
Some things are meant for others
Some things are meant for me
I'm trying to distinguish if I'm trapped or if I'm free
But all I see is this life, this cage that I'm in is changing

Because I'm getting older, baby
Can't you see I'm losing? Every moment hurts me
Can't you see that maybe we are moving too fast
Why can't I just fall to the ground?
Everything gets older, baby
Everything you love will die
I hope that maybe everyone will realise I'm falling apart
Why can't I just fall to the ground?

Like feathers in the snowstorm I try to settle down
I always look like falling but never hit the ground
And I am losing my mind just trying to find some reasoning
You losers seem so happy with everything you're not
I want what I am losing
I hate what I have got
And my emotions are worn, all tattered and torn and broken

Because I'm getting older, baby
Can't you see I'm losing? Every moment hurts me
Can't you see that maybe we are moving too fast
Why can't I just fall to the ground?
Everything gets older, baby
Everything you love will die
I hope that maybe everyone will realise I'm falling apart
Why can't I just fall to the ground?

Like feathers in the snowstorm I try to settle down
Falling ever closer and hoping for the ground
But the spin of the world keeps keeping me up and falling

Because I'm getting older, baby
Can't you see I'm losing? Every moment hurts me
Can't you see that maybe we are moving too fast
Why can't I just fall to the ground?
Everything gets older, baby
Everything you love will die
I hope that maybe everyone will realise I'm falling apart
Why can't I just fall to the ground?

Like something out of nothing I hope to be at peace
I sit and wait and listen and need for anything
I dream of touching the ground
But keep falling down...

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."
