Said What You Mean

Railroad Earth

In still water we found our own graves
Fell in the flames
Walked our own pace
Your loving’s been a blessing to me
And the blessings returned
And all that you see

Hell riders out on the hill
Their shadows upon us
And they follow us still
Don’t let them into your heart
We’ll go about our days and keep living

Love…
This loving is free
I’m dreaming with me
We’ll make it our heart
Love…
Its river runs slow
But it’ll go where we go
And follow it on
We’ll follow it on

Dim preachers
preaching their wars rattling soil
I can’t even hear anymore
To believe what they say, is believing

Love…
This loving is free
Come make it with me
We’ll make it our home
Love…
Its river runs slow
It’ll go where we go
And follow it on

I don’t even care anymore
If I sleep in a bed or
I sleep on the floor
I’ll roll over and I know where you are
I believe in our love and
I trust in your heart

Love…
This loving is free
Come make it with me
We’ll call it our home
Love…
Its river runs slow
It’ll go where we go
And follow it on

Love…
This loving is free
Come dream it with me
We’ll make it our own
Love…
Its river runs slow
Lets go where we go
We’ll call it our home

Love…
This loving is free
Come make it with me
We’ll call it our home
We’ll call it our home…

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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."
