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.
Hello beautiful I've been waiting for you
In the wrong place at the wrong time,
Please just stop me because..
I'm not trying to give you the story of my life
And I apologize for every word I made you listen to.
This is the last time I make you suffer and
I promise that you'll never hear another Word from me.
(Did we pass by?)
Feels like I've seen a thousand faces
(On my way down?)
But can't recall a single one
(Here's finding out)
My blood will decorate your pavement,
Soon as my body hits the ground.
Doubt I can live vicariously through the
Sounds of my stereo consuming and reluctant to meet my ears,
The cord wrapped tight around my neck
Helps forget about what's left
Just the anticipation cuts off my circulation.
This is the first time that we are lovers
And this is the last time that you'll hear
Another word from me.
(Did we pass by?)
Feels like I've seen a thousand faces
(On my way down?)
But can't recall a single one
(Here's finding out)
My blood will decorate your pavement,
Soon as my body hits the ground.
My bleeding begins
You won't erase this
You're way too late.
Here's finding the reason
I made this mess,
You're way too late.
(Did we pass by?)
Feels like I've seen a thousand faces
(On my way down?)
But can't recall a single one
(Here's finding out)
My blood will decorate your pavement,
Soon as my body hits the ground.
In the wrong place at the wrong time,
Please just stop me because..
I'm not trying to give you the story of my life
And I apologize for every word I made you listen to.
This is the last time I make you suffer and
I promise that you'll never hear another Word from me.
(Did we pass by?)
Feels like I've seen a thousand faces
(On my way down?)
But can't recall a single one
(Here's finding out)
My blood will decorate your pavement,
Soon as my body hits the ground.
Doubt I can live vicariously through the
Sounds of my stereo consuming and reluctant to meet my ears,
The cord wrapped tight around my neck
Helps forget about what's left
Just the anticipation cuts off my circulation.
This is the first time that we are lovers
And this is the last time that you'll hear
Another word from me.
(Did we pass by?)
Feels like I've seen a thousand faces
(On my way down?)
But can't recall a single one
(Here's finding out)
My blood will decorate your pavement,
Soon as my body hits the ground.
My bleeding begins
You won't erase this
You're way too late.
Here's finding the reason
I made this mess,
You're way too late.
(Did we pass by?)
Feels like I've seen a thousand faces
(On my way down?)
But can't recall a single one
(Here's finding out)
My blood will decorate your pavement,
Soon as my body hits the ground.

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."
