It's a heartbreak, that you can't fix up
It's a last try, when you've lost your luck
And it's a bad day (it's a bad day)
Another bad day
It's a last chance, when they've given up
It's a bad ride, falling out of love
And can you take it?
Cause I can't take it

It's starting up and never stopping again

When the rain starts shaking the ground
I hope that you're ready now
I hope you're ready for it
When you get caught out in the rain
I hope that you're ready now
For all the storms to head your way

It's a long drive, when you've got no gas
It's a cheap date, when you're out of cash
And it's a bad day (it's a bad day)
Another bad day
And it's a feeling, when you've lost your touch
And it's a plane ride, if on the right drugs
And can you take it?
Cause honestly I can't take it

It's starting up and never stopping again

When the rain starts shaking the ground
I hope that you're ready now
I hope you're ready for it
When you get caught out in the rain
I hope that you're ready now
For all the storms to come your way
When the rain starts shaking the ground
I hope that you're ready now
I hope you're ready for it
When you get caught out in the rain
I hope that you're ready now
For all the storms to head your way

And we'll find ourselves inside the raindrops
And we'll fight the seconds inside every clock
What's keeping you from leaving?
The newspapers are reading
Get out save yourself before we're burning in hell
When sun is what you're chasing
But everyday it's raining
Pockets full of silver dimes
I hope you're ready for this time

When the rain starts shaking the ground
I hope that you're ready now
I hope you're ready for it
When you get caught out in the rain
I hope that you're ready now
For all the storms to come your way
When the rain starts shaking the ground
I hope that you're ready now
I hope you're ready for it
When you get caught out in the rain
I hope that you're ready now
For all the storms to head your way
For all the storms to head your way
For all the storms to head your way

    I think the song meaning is pretty generalized love angst, but the deliver is in such a unique upbeat punk/indie style (piano and horns make the song). I think this is Oct Falls best song, and I absolutely love Favorite Mistake and I'll find You Again.

    i dunno what you're talking about lovehatehero. this sounds NOTHING like fall out boy. And although it could be sarcasm i sense from your first post, but what you're saying is the most ignorant shit i hear all the time from sick scenesters like you...how is it bad that underground bands get good coverage? "i hate this band because they can finally pay their rent and live a decent life." I hate people like you, and Pete would too.

    Agrred enj0i29. Yes, it does kind of suck when you can't see these people play in someone's basement for free anymore, and yes they may have big heads about now being famous, but this is what they have wanted their WHOLE LIVES. Who are we to say that it's bad that they got it? Anyway, I like this song. It's one of my favorites on the album.

    I love this song, it is ideal for one of those "fuck life" moments. It's actually quite a depressing song but it's brilliantly catchy and upbeat. The vocal breakdown and horns make the song. It doesn't sound like Fall Out Boy at all, it's a greta overall sound.

    I reccomend for driving to.

    I love this song! Really catchy, upbeat, for the subject they're singing about. I think it's brilliant. I love how the music cuts off on the start of the last chorus to the song.. very cool and yes sounds quite original- that's why I love it so much.

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."

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
