第三金曜日の朝九時 窓ガラスの向こうはムカツクくらい晴れてるけど
俺には雨の方が良かった たまにはそんな気分もあるでしょう? 笑えない

叶うなら誰か俺に生きる意味を教えて下さい
ありふれた日常からいっそう飛び降りてしまいたいくらい
No more white-washing

どしゃぶりの中傘も差さずズブ濡れの僕を見る眼が冷たい今日この頃
気付かずどんどん傷付いてる雨上がりの第三日曜日は笑いたい

表の顔裏の顔上手く使い分けられていいね
僅かながら嬉しいです 俺は人間を捨ててないので
No more white-washing

Human gate human
シャバダバビバ シュビダバビバ デュビダビダバ シャルララララン

日に日に埋もれて行く幼い頃の純粋な声
バカらしくはないですか? 同じ人間に騙される事

ささやかでいい泣いて下さい
ゴミ袋を漁る鴉みたい ベンチで泣いてる君の未来
ささやかでいい泣いて下さい
第四火曜日の朝方には 俺もそろそろ仲間入りさ

Human gate human

No more white-washing

    I actually think this song is about an almost typical behavior accepted/expected in Japan amongst its own people--the line that brought this to my attention was the whole "The social face, the private face, it's nice to see you use it both so nicely" line. There's a "public persona" that you adopt when dealing with people around you, obviously in public, in a place of work, neighbors, etc., and then there's the you, the real you--the private face. I seem to remember this being a cause of such strife and distress amongst the younger generation in particular, because of being so two-faced and it just leads you to feel so... split, I guess.

    Obviously we know Kyo's stance on this as the line continues to say: "Well, thank you I haven't thrown away being human... No more whitewashing."

    White-washing can be read as "sugar-coating" (though I'm NOT saying that's the translation!), in that you don't paint something up to be more 'pleasing.' Show your face and yourself for who and what you are.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.

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."
