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.
Don't come to me with forevers
I love you more with each new day
But there is nothing everlasting
And death blows promises away
Don't tell me I don't have no secrets
There's still a place I want to be
There's still a path I haven't wandered
But I'm afraid of where it leads
Let me hold your hands, your arms, your sides,
The small of your back,
Your shoulders, and your wrists
Your thighs, your ankles, and then
Find my way inside
You say I don't deserve the motions
That my devotion is untrue
You say I got to find my place
But my place is inside of you
So don't be hasty in your judgement
Don't pull a bag over my head
There are many here who hunger
And there are many who despair
Lay down your arms, your hair, your gown
The scroll of your spine
Hand me your head, your waist, your breath
Your nipples and then,
Find my way inside
I love you more with each new day
But there is nothing everlasting
And death blows promises away
Don't tell me I don't have no secrets
There's still a place I want to be
There's still a path I haven't wandered
But I'm afraid of where it leads
Let me hold your hands, your arms, your sides,
The small of your back,
Your shoulders, and your wrists
Your thighs, your ankles, and then
Find my way inside
You say I don't deserve the motions
That my devotion is untrue
You say I got to find my place
But my place is inside of you
So don't be hasty in your judgement
Don't pull a bag over my head
There are many here who hunger
And there are many who despair
Lay down your arms, your hair, your gown
The scroll of your spine
Hand me your head, your waist, your breath
Your nipples and then,
Find my way inside

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."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
i find this reminiscent of "to is coy mistress" by marvell. it seems to be to be a poem of seduction. he is telling her, just as the speaker in "to his coy mistress," that they shouldn't waste time and their youth, but throw themselves into love and its passion.
A seductive yet sweet song. It made me wonder how Leonard Cohen would sing it; it seems like it would be a song he would write. The music is slow yet inviting. The singer almost talks his way through the song. He tells someone that life is about today, and when she pushes him away he reminds her that they belong together. He wants to be inside her, both physically and emotionally...to be let in and embraced. He almost begs not to be pushed away yet he does it in such an easy slow tone that it's obvious he's sincere. These have to be the most visually and emotionally seductive words in any song: "Lay down your arms, your hair, your gown. The scroll of your spine. Hand me your head, your waist, your breath. Your nipples and then, find my way inside." As you listen you can visualize his hands on her as she drops her guard; the slow almost methodical caresses; his hands touching her as she releases her fears and doubts; his breathing life into her; and the warmth generated by their bodies as they forget the rest of the world and come together in the moment to create one being. There is nobody else and no other sound in the room...just the two of them entwined. They are connected in that moment; he's inside her. It's not a song about sex. It's a song of emotional union expressed though the flesh.
