For goodness’s sake we need a break, she tell me
There’s too much on her plate, and I’m not helping
I was under the impression that things were fine, for the longest time
I’m not the type to ignore your rights if you’re leaving
But oh my god, I cannot believe that you’re leaving
I pray to goodness that you’ll wanna come back
But until then, I guess you’ve gotta pack

Suitcases and travel bags
If you’re ever coming back
Just leave a couple of things for me
Oh, leave me your sweet perfume
Spray it around the room
And I’ll pray that you’ll come home soon
Suitcases and travel bags
I can’t sit and watch you pack
Just leave a couple of things for me
Oh, leave me your sweet perfume
Spray it around the room
And I’ll pray that you’ll come home soon, come home soon

This is the sound of a man that’s still in love with you
A man that can’t understand just why our heart’s in two
But when you speak to me and justify so eloquently
And try to make me see
But you will have to forgive me, I guess I’m old-school
Just wanna talk back and forth and work it out with you
How’s leaving home gonna make you wanna come back
If you can answer, I’ll leave and let you pack

Suitcases and travel bags
If you’re ever coming back
Just leave a couple of things for me
Oh, leave me your sweet perfume
Spray it around the room
And I’ll pray that you’ll come home soon
Suitcases and travel bags
I can’t sit and watch you pack
Just leave a couple of things for me
Oh, leave me your sweet perfume
Spray it around the room
And I’ll pray that you’ll come home soon, come home soon

There’s a lot to be said but baby, if you’re just over it
I won’t waste my breath, waste my breath
Could’ve sworn we were cool but I guess I was fooled
But I guess I was, guess I was
I’m not sure what this means, I’m not sure what separation brings
So if you’re gonna go, do what it do
You can find me in the other room

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."

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
