Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?
Every time I see you I can see right through you
Knowing I could never change your mind
I look into your eyes for the last time
I have realized for the first time
While everyone is around I'll take a moment
To let you know that I'm down
Have all my questions been ignored
This time I'm walking out the door
I don't know if I'll ever know why
Or hear the sound when angels cry
What you said to me late last night
I'll remember for the rest of my life
Every night when you close my eyes
I see the ways that you've touched my life
And I want you to know that I'll
Always be right here
Time stands still, so do I, leave me here
But for now I will go and I won't say nothing
Everytime I hear that sound it reminds me that
You're always hanging around
Have all my questions been ignored
This time I'm walking out the door
I don't know if I'll ever know why
Or hear the sound when angels cry
What you said to me late last night
I'll remember for the rest of my life
Every night when you close my eyes
I see the ways that you've touched my life
And I want you to know that I'll
Always be right here
These are the days these are the moments that pass us by
We ask the questions but we never really find out why
Pull my card right from the bottom
Reminds me of the things we've forgotten
That road trip we took back in autumn
That time we left and went back and got 'em
These are the days these are the moments that pass us by
We ask the questions but we never really find out why
I don't know if I'll ever know why
Or hear the sound when angels cry
What you said to me late last night
I'll remember for the rest of my life
Every night when you close my eyes
I see the ways that you've touched my life
And I want you to know that I'll
Always be right here
Knowing I could never change your mind
I look into your eyes for the last time
I have realized for the first time
While everyone is around I'll take a moment
To let you know that I'm down
Have all my questions been ignored
This time I'm walking out the door
I don't know if I'll ever know why
Or hear the sound when angels cry
What you said to me late last night
I'll remember for the rest of my life
Every night when you close my eyes
I see the ways that you've touched my life
And I want you to know that I'll
Always be right here
Time stands still, so do I, leave me here
But for now I will go and I won't say nothing
Everytime I hear that sound it reminds me that
You're always hanging around
Have all my questions been ignored
This time I'm walking out the door
I don't know if I'll ever know why
Or hear the sound when angels cry
What you said to me late last night
I'll remember for the rest of my life
Every night when you close my eyes
I see the ways that you've touched my life
And I want you to know that I'll
Always be right here
These are the days these are the moments that pass us by
We ask the questions but we never really find out why
Pull my card right from the bottom
Reminds me of the things we've forgotten
That road trip we took back in autumn
That time we left and went back and got 'em
These are the days these are the moments that pass us by
We ask the questions but we never really find out why
I don't know if I'll ever know why
Or hear the sound when angels cry
What you said to me late last night
I'll remember for the rest of my life
Every night when you close my eyes
I see the ways that you've touched my life
And I want you to know that I'll
Always be right here

Word Alive, The
This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.
Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Mountain Song

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."
This is an incredible song- one of my favorites. I think it's about having a reationship with someone wihtout understanding it, and knowing it will change your life.
