Crawling home after a long night
All I have to show were black lights
Bloody knuckles from the window pane
Alone, but I've had worse fights (worse fights)
Soon these scars will heal
And I'll be back for another round

So play your game, you won't win
Fight it out, but what's the sin
in leaving me to die?
Play your game, you won't win
Fight it out, but once again
as you leave me bruised and battered, these recollections shatter of you

When I fall down on my knees
Would you pick me up and throw me right back to the floor?
When I find out what I need, you best believe I won't be here begging for more
But I won't trade in the rest of my days
to come right back to you tonight
Well you throw me down and walk on me, when I come right back to you to die

Falling away, I see right through your lies
Falling away, won't bring you home tonight
Say your prayers, scream them loud
Count your wins and take a bow
Cause you deserve it
Take out all your grief on me
Throw me away and let me be
You deserve it don't you now?

But when I fall down on my knees
Would you pick me up and throw me right back to the floor?
And when I find out what I need
You best believe it won't be here begging for more
And I won't trade in the rest of my days to come right back to you tonight
Well you would throw me down and walk on me, when I come right back to you to die

And I feel you breathing on my skin
You're outside looking in
Well I feel you breathing on my skin
You're outside looking in
Can you feel me outside looking in?
Can you feel me breathing on your skin?
When your face is broken
Can you feel me outside looking in?
Can you feel me breathing on your skin?
When your face is broken tonight
Is broken tonight
Is broken tonight
Broken tonight
Can you feel me breathing on your skin?
can you feel me outside looking in
when your face is broken tonight

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."

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.
