Nervously you lit your cigarette
Hey beautiful why did you start again
You interrupt me with, "How are you doing?"
Well I love my life and the music that I'm grooving

You pause and slowly hang your head
I don't think I can take this again
Flat out it wasn't shiny and new
What's a young boy gotta do for you?

You look really good my baby I ain't gonna lie
But take one minute and shed your skin
It'll be the best thing in your life

Your heart's stone cold and you can't feel nothing
I wish what I got was enough to be lovin'
Your heart's stone cold, won't let nobody in there
Not much changed and it's all too familiar

Your heart's stone cold and it's making me sadder
Just to think true love really didn't even matter
Your heart's stone cold and nothing is gonna change

Your eyes look empty, lost in the sadness
Faking a smile and it's worse than the madness
I don't need you, I'm a little bit stronger
You say it's been a while, it's gonna be a while longer

I've never seen you like this before
You asking me for more
There's no going back to yesterday
Who would want to anyway

You look really good my baby I'm not gonna lie
But take one minute and shed your skin
It'll be the best thing in your life

Your heart's stone cold and you can't feel nothing
I wish what I got was enough to be lovin'
Your heart's stone cold won't let nobody in there
Not much changed and it's all too familiar

Your heart's stone cold and it's making me sadder
Just to think true love really didn't even matter
Your heart's stone cold and nothing is gonna change

Your heart's stone cold and you can't feel nothing
Your heart's stone cold and you can't feel nothing
Your heart's stone cold and you can't feel nothing
You can't feel nothing, you can't feel nothing

Your heart's stone cold and you can't feel nothing
Your heart's stone cold and you can't feel nothing
Your heart's stone cold and you can't feel nothing
Your heart's stone cold and you can't feel nothing

    I absolutely love this song. the only thing I was disappointed about was that I read a few interviews with Josh McMillan, and he just seemed like such a jerk. He said he could sing better than John Mayer. ...I don't agree. but Josh is so gorgeous. one correction in these lyrics: "Nervously, you bit your cigarrette." not hit.

Little Feat
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”

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."

Magical
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 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.
