This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Lying around
The answering machine had blinked more than I could count
The operator won't disclose she knows his whereabouts
I put money on it baby
Sweated it out
Sweated it out
Does it take two hands to count your mistakes?
You know your breath is heavy and I take it away
Take it away
I am hound with the taste of your blood fresh in my mouth
Keep my mouth shut
Your quick to chase now your walking away
You made your bed now it looks like a grave
Your quick to catch me now your walking away
Well I make sure you don't want opened
When you walked out on me
When you walked out on me
Go to the tape wait
I think she wants to take a chance
A challenge of whether
It could be his voice or just a noise
I gave away your stuff girl
I've seen the heart of things
Like a face wrapped in blood
And out of control
Does it take two hands to count your mistakes?
You know your breath is heavy and I take it away
Take it away
I am a hound with the taste of your blood fresh in my mouth
Your quick to chase but now your walking away
You make your bed now it looks like a grave
Your quick to catch me now your walking away
Well I make sure you don't want opened
When you walked out on me
When you walked out on me
Like a siren
My hearts says
A distressing note ringing through the streets
The best thing I can
Keep my mouth shut
Out of sight, out of mind
Keep my mouth shut
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Keep my mouth shut
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh ,oh
Keep my mouth shut
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
A distressing note ringing through the streets
And the sirens ring
A distressing note ringing through the streets
The answering machine had blinked more than I could count
The operator won't disclose she knows his whereabouts
I put money on it baby
Sweated it out
Sweated it out
Does it take two hands to count your mistakes?
You know your breath is heavy and I take it away
Take it away
I am hound with the taste of your blood fresh in my mouth
Keep my mouth shut
Your quick to chase now your walking away
You made your bed now it looks like a grave
Your quick to catch me now your walking away
Well I make sure you don't want opened
When you walked out on me
When you walked out on me
Go to the tape wait
I think she wants to take a chance
A challenge of whether
It could be his voice or just a noise
I gave away your stuff girl
I've seen the heart of things
Like a face wrapped in blood
And out of control
Does it take two hands to count your mistakes?
You know your breath is heavy and I take it away
Take it away
I am a hound with the taste of your blood fresh in my mouth
Your quick to chase but now your walking away
You make your bed now it looks like a grave
Your quick to catch me now your walking away
Well I make sure you don't want opened
When you walked out on me
When you walked out on me
Like a siren
My hearts says
A distressing note ringing through the streets
The best thing I can
Keep my mouth shut
Out of sight, out of mind
Keep my mouth shut
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Keep my mouth shut
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh ,oh
Keep my mouth shut
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
A distressing note ringing through the streets
And the sirens ring
A distressing note ringing through the streets

Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
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."

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
i did this all by ear, im pretty sure most of it is correct, if not lemme knw
I got this Lying around the answering machine had blinked more times than I could count, the operator wont disclose she knows his whereabouts, I put money on girl, he was sweating it out
and then for the 2nd part I got take a chance and challenge his word. I unno though >.> just what I hear :)
i swear its 'A distressing note ring through the streets
not sure though...
alright i think the lyrics are pretty much 100% correct if im wrong, lemme knw. ty.
it sounds like in the beginning he says "whats a ring machine have blades for" instead of "answering machine had blinked more"...listen to it.
I'm positive that I'm wrong, but it definitely sounds like what he says.
it does kinda sound like "whats a ring machine have blades for" but it wouldnt fit in the sentence then. but it does sound like it.
According to the lyrics booklet, it's "While you were out, the answering machine had blinked more than I could count."
And "But I'd put money on it girl that you were sweating it out." Then "You're quick to catch but now you're walking away."
And "Wait, I think she wants to take a chance and challenge the play / Could it be his voice or just a noise that gave away your stud?" And last "A distress signal ringing through the streets."
Sorry, that was long. =)
