Dead hands clutch my arm,
The smell of death fills the air,
Her fragrance, her carcass reanimates,
If you need me I'll be tying a rope to the tree,
Where our, where our love used to be,
I've took down every photo of us, and buried them at sea,
I've took down every photo, and I buried them at sea,

Don't worry sweetie,
Beauty is only skin deep,

Psyche!

Your beauty is no more,
So why don't you just fuck yourself you fucking whore?
Oh, your beauty is no, no more,
So why don't you just fuck yourself you stupid fucking whore?

"I should have know, not to look into her eyes,
I'm cast to stone, her glare was my demise."
Medusa,
Medusa,

Oh, your beauty is no, no more,
So why don't you just fuck yourself you fucking whore?

Dead hands clutch my arm,
The smell of death, it fills the air,
Her fragrance, her carcass reanimates,

Since you left me, (I've never)
Since you left me, (been the same)
Since you left me, (I've never)
Since you left me, (been the fucking same)

Go,

Hour by hour, day by day,
Your memory will fade away,
Every sunrise, every sunset,
Will help me to forget,
Your name, your smile,
Your eyes - Medusa,

Decapitate her and bring her head to Athena,
Unlike her sisters, she ain't no deathless God,

This is for every time you stabbed me in the back,
For every notch in your bed post,
This is for every time you stabbed me in the back,
For every notch in your bed post,
Bed post,

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 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
Ed Sheeran
“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.
