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”
They change your faith
It's gone to far to name
the way you see
The things they'll change
Your life and control
your mind
I can't relate to it
Sick of all this monotany
Kill the fuckin' music industry
They trust the way they feel
in their minds its time
for us to scream
The things they'll change
your life and control
your mind
I can't relate to it

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."

Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
The real lyrics, according to the booklet that came with the cd are:
They changed your faith they've gone too far they maim the way you see they think they'll change your life and control your mind they can't relate to real life sick of all this monotony kill the fucking music industry sick of all the monotony kill the fucking music industry they trust the way they feel in their minds it's time for us to scream.
I think this song is about how the music industry is full of bands that all sound the same and they all suck because no one can relate to them.
I completely agree with you jamiethomas3333. This song is completely badass. The lyrics on this website for this song are screwed up. "Everything about me is great. If you disagree with any comment I make, you are wrong. Eat shit and die." Maddox
From Scooter Ward himself:
“The state of music today is crap. I’m not trying to pinpoint one person or one record company, but I’m just tired of everything sounding the same. It’s funny, though, because when we start cutting this still didn’t know what I was going to sing on the chorus. The title is the last thing I came up with, for the chorus. We decided to do it with a lot of girls yelling that line. We had a party one night, and Howard [Benson, producer] had the great idea of bringing everyone in for a gang vocal.”
This song is exactly how I feel Im so sick of hearing the same thing on the radio. And all these people like it just because its "cool". It bugs me to no extent especially now with "punk" being in. YOu see all these little kids dressing all punk and whatever its total bull shit!
I hate punk, and i hate the people who dress punk, punks are sorry excuses to try to be a popular, happy goth. and preps, preps are my all time hate, they fuel the very existence of my hatred. I like this song because it is how i feel about everything going punk and prep.
i hate u finkdog!!! punk is a mentality not a way of dressing and if u cant see the difference then u shouldnt be saying anything at all
i like to sing this song replacing the Fuckin with country. kill the country music industry....
Ha ha, it's been a while since I made that above comment, still hate punks and preps, and a big LOL to the comment made by vince, it just works so well.
It's about how Cold want to get rid of all the bad things that are happening in the music industry today.
Unless they live the lifestyles they are promoting in their songs, Jamie Thomas. I think it's about the bad things the music industry does, and they want to stop those things and keep the good things about it.
