This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Escape into the eerie night
In the dark I’m out of sight
Shadows on the alley wall
Are dancing like a lovers brawl
North south east and west
Foreign land is right and left
Don’t let them see you cry
I didn’t know which way was home
Ten degrees without a coat
Don’t let them see you cry
I don’t want to love you if love leaves me this cold
I don’t want to love you if love is this alone
Silence couldn’t stop the sound
The news and gossip got around
A whisper here whisper there
I do but don’t know why I care
Eyes hang from the sockets of our faces
You said no and I don’t think I can take it
This cars caving in
Rains on in the city traffic puzzle
Shifting pieces just like my stomach
Were both so upset
Love sick and were sick of it
Were both on the same page
Don’t feel the same way
In the dark I’m out of sight
Shadows on the alley wall
Are dancing like a lovers brawl
North south east and west
Foreign land is right and left
Don’t let them see you cry
I didn’t know which way was home
Ten degrees without a coat
Don’t let them see you cry
I don’t want to love you if love leaves me this cold
I don’t want to love you if love is this alone
Silence couldn’t stop the sound
The news and gossip got around
A whisper here whisper there
I do but don’t know why I care
Eyes hang from the sockets of our faces
You said no and I don’t think I can take it
This cars caving in
Rains on in the city traffic puzzle
Shifting pieces just like my stomach
Were both so upset
Love sick and were sick of it
Were both on the same page
Don’t feel the same way

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
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."
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.
Were both so alone should be "Were both so upset".
I <3 this song for so many different reasons, I can't even explain but i love this song lol <3
Good job, keep it up.
OMG could this song be anymore awesome??? I don't think so. "North, south, east, and west, foreign land is right and left" That has gotta be the catchiest thing i've ever heard. Song may be about umm not wanting to be with someone because of who they become when they're with them... Only saying that because the chorus makes it obvious... "I don't want to love you if love leaves me this cold"
"Were both so alone Love sick and were sick of it Were both on the same page Don’t feel the same way"
pretty self explanatory.. and exactly how i'm feeling at the moment.
"Don’t let them see you cry"
that's the advice i was given when i broke up with my boyfriend..
this is a really catchy song with awesome meaningful lyrics.
this chorus is really amazing.
the more i listen to the hush sound the more i fall in love. the girls voice (sorry i 4get the names) is so intoxicating.
but for me, it really gets me when the i hear the guy sing. i could sit back and listen to the hush sound all day if i had the time.
"I don’t want to love you if love leaves me this cold I don’t want to love you if love is this alone"
obviously this guy is unhappy with happy and unfulfilled with his relationship at the time for what ever reason and is trying to escape it.
"I don’t want to love you if love leaves me this cold I don’t want to love you if love is this alone"

I get the feeling he wants a certain girl who is often talked about behind her back.
"Silence couldn’t stop the sound The news and gossip got around A whisper here whisper there I do but don’t know why I care"
But he can't have her because she doesn't feel the same way about him as he does her.
"You said no and I don’t think I can take it"
"We're both so alone Love sick and we're sick of it We're both on the same page Don’t feel the same way"
And, as you would, the feeling he gets is lost and cold.
"I didn’t know which way was home Ten degrees without a coat"
"I don’t want to love you if love leaves me this cold I don’t want to love you if love is this alone"
"I don’t want to love you if love leaves me this cold I don’t want to love you if love is this alone" It's so good! I really love this song! :)
What I get from it is that the narrator is in a state of unrequited love, and he feels lost and cold and overwhelmed like you do in a big city you don't know and you get lost, hence the metaphor.
