The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
イバラに絡む太陽
ため息と混ざってトロケル後悔
見飽きた夢に唾を吐き笑う
孤独に喰われた人たちの心は
Ah ah 残酷に育つ
重ねた白に溶け込む
望まれず壊れた真実は裏腹 ah ah
微笑みに愛を
すでに陰り朝は死んだ
嗚呼 届かない離れてしまう
穢れのない 優しさに 涙と眠りたい
孕んだ嘘は麗らか
剃刀のプールで溺れた涙は
Ah ah 曖昧に甘く
すでに陰り明日は死んだ
涙も嘘も愛も許せない俺が
大嫌いで でも戻れないから
嗚呼 届かない離れてしまう
穢れのない 優しさに 涙と眠りたい
背負った茜の空はただ響く
泣き叫ぶ声はもう ah ah 聞こえない ah ah
まだ届かない
ため息と混ざってトロケル後悔
見飽きた夢に唾を吐き笑う
孤独に喰われた人たちの心は
Ah ah 残酷に育つ
重ねた白に溶け込む
望まれず壊れた真実は裏腹 ah ah
微笑みに愛を
すでに陰り朝は死んだ
嗚呼 届かない離れてしまう
穢れのない 優しさに 涙と眠りたい
孕んだ嘘は麗らか
剃刀のプールで溺れた涙は
Ah ah 曖昧に甘く
すでに陰り明日は死んだ
涙も嘘も愛も許せない俺が
大嫌いで でも戻れないから
嗚呼 届かない離れてしまう
穢れのない 優しさに 涙と眠りたい
背負った茜の空はただ響く
泣き叫ぶ声はもう ah ah 聞こえない ah ah
まだ届かない

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
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."

It's such a gentle song!Espessially the piano in the beggining!So sad...
beautiful song... love it ^^ Kyo really knows how to put a lot of emotions to his singing... Marrow of a Bone is just amazin, the songs are so good, i cant stop listening to them, I really think that Diru did a good job with the album, its just so different from their past album, i just love how in every album they have something new to show us.. ^^
One of my favorite songs from their new album ^^ I don't understand those who say that this is their worst album >< Can wait for the translation =)
*Can't
Daw... no English for this one either? D:
Ah oh well, even though I can't understand the words the song is goregeous. It's definately one of their better songs. Then again, I always prefer Diru's more subtle songs. Apparently screaming and constant rawrs just don't suit my taste. :/
But yeah, this is the first song I heard on their new album I think. Tis' a spiffy song. :3
this song is so beautiful, and I don't use that word much ,lol. A great ballad that opens the rest of the album wonderfully. Probably my favorite song on the CD, Kyo's voice and lyrics are so amazing.
this song means nothing to me
It has to mean something if you bothered to post. :/
Has anyone seen the live show of this on youtube? It's absolutely amazing performance.
I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!!!! its pretty!!
