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.
Someone help me take my last shot
And lets leave this dim room
I've made sure every bottle has had its share
I'm lost hold me I'm stumbling threw it all
But this picture I'm painting for you
Hang it up on your wall its painted with these tears
She hates you
Lets except it and get closer to completition
Where am I now?
Laying here on your couch
Are you an angel?
Make me into a portrait
I'm only 18 and not cool enough to forfeit
Quit asking me if I've had enough
I'll take my pain
Write it in a picture story
This room is sickeningly the same
Let me throw up so I can tell you something
I'm not ok I'm my mother's masterpeice
From all these guilt trips
And what have I done who have I done this with
These things have nothing to prove
Make me into a portrait
I'm only 18 and not cool enough to forfeit
Quit asking me if I've had enough
Paint it imperfect
Just like this ugly face you try to pick up
I'm not sad
I haven't had enough
This floor is my friend I swear it
This stool is the most comforting
This all thats left of me these days
Not cool enough to be a masterpeice
-To fractious to be yours
Your to gorgeous...whats your name
This masterpeice is yours to keep
And lets leave this dim room
I've made sure every bottle has had its share
I'm lost hold me I'm stumbling threw it all
But this picture I'm painting for you
Hang it up on your wall its painted with these tears
She hates you
Lets except it and get closer to completition
Where am I now?
Laying here on your couch
Are you an angel?
Make me into a portrait
I'm only 18 and not cool enough to forfeit
Quit asking me if I've had enough
I'll take my pain
Write it in a picture story
This room is sickeningly the same
Let me throw up so I can tell you something
I'm not ok I'm my mother's masterpeice
From all these guilt trips
And what have I done who have I done this with
These things have nothing to prove
Make me into a portrait
I'm only 18 and not cool enough to forfeit
Quit asking me if I've had enough
Paint it imperfect
Just like this ugly face you try to pick up
I'm not sad
I haven't had enough
This floor is my friend I swear it
This stool is the most comforting
This all thats left of me these days
Not cool enough to be a masterpeice
-To fractious to be yours
Your to gorgeous...whats your name
This masterpeice is yours to keep

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."

Paint it imperfect Just like this ugly face you try to pick up(talking to my mother this actually out of one of my first suicide notes I said, "Paint a picture of me, Paint it imperfect, Just like me, This gun will paint it better, As you pick it up off the floor.")

This song is about masterpieces... That are bitter.
