@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Rain for me oh you but called me
It’s my broken heart just where you leave me
Now I say to you, “ooooh boy.”
Weight on my head
You won’t go up, oh
Weight on my head
Oooh ooh my babe...
Stay a minute just to hear you waitin’,
And no one confine her
Sweet and tender won’t you go out again?
Oh, rain on my head
Wouldn’t you
Rain on my head?
Oh, someone take off a
Weight all alone
Ahh, I met a girl recently.
All in a sudden, all a suddenly
Nobody deal for the woe of the world
Wait, all a sudden, all a suddenly
It will all would be, all would be over
Wait, come on rain on my head.
Water water!
Dates,
Many, many dates how you all die.
Oh rain money,
Grow a war at heart
And in the fire,
One out of a million.
.. wait a minute,
Touch your look on me
Denial, denial
Touch your work with me
Do not deny
Rain on my head
Rain on my head
Rain on my head
Rain on my head
It’s my broken heart just where you leave me
Now I say to you, “ooooh boy.”
Weight on my head
You won’t go up, oh
Weight on my head
Oooh ooh my babe...
Stay a minute just to hear you waitin’,
And no one confine her
Sweet and tender won’t you go out again?
Oh, rain on my head
Wouldn’t you
Rain on my head?
Oh, someone take off a
Weight all alone
Ahh, I met a girl recently.
All in a sudden, all a suddenly
Nobody deal for the woe of the world
Wait, all a sudden, all a suddenly
It will all would be, all would be over
Wait, come on rain on my head.
Water water!
Dates,
Many, many dates how you all die.
Oh rain money,
Grow a war at heart
And in the fire,
One out of a million.
.. wait a minute,
Touch your look on me
Denial, denial
Touch your work with me
Do not deny
Rain on my head
Rain on my head
Rain on my head
Rain on my head

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."

god . listen to the way he sings this song. his emotion. its amazing. makes you just want to cry cause its just SO DAMN GOOD. what an amazing man.
This song is about meeting someone but losing them all in the same day. Refer to "Little Thing" On Luther College for the first part. An Another Thing seems to be a continuation or official release of the song, which is preluded by a story by Dave.
this is a simple song about the woes of the world thats on daves shoulders. he tries to care, but little can be done.."rain" or water here is symbolic for the mercies of God..water symbolises the Holy Spirit.. he's crying out for a mercy from up above.. for himself and towards others..
the "rain" portion of the song is a direct interpolation from "dreams of our fathers."
yah i agree cause i realized it sounds extremly similar to the song.. i love that song too.
I really didnt like this song, but now that i've read the lyrics my opinion on this song had totally changed, the lyrics are really powerful. i Love dave to death
vanaf het eerste moment dat ik het hoorde, dacht ik: dit nummer moeten ze draaien tijdens mijn crematie; een prachtig nummer vol intensie.
You know the "Rain on my head" part sounds a lot like from the part in "Dreams of Our Fathers"
they're is so much emotion in this song. It's like a sad song, i listen to it every time i feel sad or cruddy. Or when i feel lonely and i wish i had someone to love. This song makes me cry sometimes.
I don't know about you, but I didn't understand the man for half the song, lol
