In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
I fall over and over and over
Over, over on you
I get ill, I get ill, I get ill
You're the only one I'm into
You and me fit so tight
I go lower and lower and lower
Lower, living easy
I don't know, I don't know
That I got till it's over
You and me fit so tight
Can you do it again?
Do it again? Do it again?
Can you do it again?
Hey, hey, hey
All the way, all the way, all the way
There's nowhere left we can meet (Oh)
I'm into what you do but I leave you nowhere
You and me (Hey) Fit so tight (Hey)
All we need (Hey) Is one more time (Hey)
Can you do it again?
Do it again? Do it again?
Can you do it again?
Do it again? Do it again?
Can you do it again?
I only get to live one life
Won't pretend you're only mine
Where will you go?
Where we all find the way
To do it again?
Do it again? Do it again?
Do it again? (hey, hey)
Do it again? (hey, hey)
Do it again? (hey, hey)
This is Tom Sherman,
down here In Banning College, we're, uh
We're promoting a blood dri-
Oh, shit
Welcome to the South of America
you're listening to AM580
lay back
sheep, little lamb, little lamb, little lamb
He told me so to my base
(Follow me and I will)
Good to know that he's walking with me
(Big rock is a weapon
The devil is a blast door)
And you have fallen into the love that needs to be designed by the Lord
Hallelujah, y'all, I wanna hear a couple 'ol Hallelujahs
Over, over on you
I get ill, I get ill, I get ill
You're the only one I'm into
You and me fit so tight
I go lower and lower and lower
Lower, living easy
I don't know, I don't know
That I got till it's over
You and me fit so tight
Can you do it again?
Do it again? Do it again?
Can you do it again?
Hey, hey, hey
All the way, all the way, all the way
There's nowhere left we can meet (Oh)
I'm into what you do but I leave you nowhere
You and me (Hey) Fit so tight (Hey)
All we need (Hey) Is one more time (Hey)
Can you do it again?
Do it again? Do it again?
Can you do it again?
Do it again? Do it again?
Can you do it again?
I only get to live one life
Won't pretend you're only mine
Where will you go?
Where we all find the way
To do it again?
Do it again? Do it again?
Do it again? (hey, hey)
Do it again? (hey, hey)
Do it again? (hey, hey)

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."
