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.
You got time
If time is what you needed
You're not mine
I rather not believe you're fine
Rather think you're up all night
You're alright
You knew me when you met me
Let's not fight
I'm just a little feisty
Maybe, maybe I would lose my mind
I don't wanna
Let you go away
I don't wanna
Let you go
Boy, I just wanted your love
I just need to feel your love
I just wanted your love
I don't wanna
Let you go
You got steam
The wheels are turning
It's just me
I'm crashing and I'm burning
Shouldn't we be making out?
You got guts
Guts is what I need now
I don't mind
Starting to believe it's over
Tell her "I loathe her"
I don't wanna
Let you go away
I don't wanna
Let you go
Boy, I just wanted your love
I just need to feel your love
I just wanted your love
I don't wanna
Let you go
Ha!
Letting you go
Letting you go
Letting you go
Letting you go
Letting you go
Yea yea
I don't wanna
Let you go away
I don't wanna
Let you go
Boy, I just wanted your love
I just need to feel your love
I just wanted your love
I don't wanna
Let you go
Higher Ground
I've been crawling
To the mountains
Skinned my knees with blood and hope
If I stayed standing
I'd be drowning
The rising waters made me choke
As I am getting nearer
My mission is coming clear
I know this road
Never seen it before
I know what lies behind unopened doors
I saw the signs from the distant shore
That I couldn't ignore...
I'm heading for higher ground
I left everyone behind me
I took everything I know
Half way up and I'm still climbing
Still a million miles to go
The water is drawing nearer
As everything disappears
I know this road
Never seen it before
I know what lies behind unopened doors
I saw the signs from the distant shore
That I couldn't ignore...
I'm heading for higher ground
And my foot slips
But I don't quit
And my hand grips the rock
Something pulls deep
From within me
Til I get there, I won't stop
I know this road
Never seen it before
I know what lies behind unopened doors
I saw the signs from the distant shore
That I couldn't ignore
I know this road
Never seen it before
I know what lies behind unopened doors
I saw the signs from the distant shore
That I couldn't ignore
I'm heading for higher, higher ground
Way up here, the air is thin
Feels like I could go so far
If time is what you needed
You're not mine
I rather not believe you're fine
Rather think you're up all night
You're alright
You knew me when you met me
Let's not fight
I'm just a little feisty
Maybe, maybe I would lose my mind
I don't wanna
Let you go away
I don't wanna
Let you go
Boy, I just wanted your love
I just need to feel your love
I just wanted your love
I don't wanna
Let you go
You got steam
The wheels are turning
It's just me
I'm crashing and I'm burning
Shouldn't we be making out?
You got guts
Guts is what I need now
I don't mind
Starting to believe it's over
Tell her "I loathe her"
I don't wanna
Let you go away
I don't wanna
Let you go
Boy, I just wanted your love
I just need to feel your love
I just wanted your love
I don't wanna
Let you go
Ha!
Letting you go
Letting you go
Letting you go
Letting you go
Letting you go
Yea yea
I don't wanna
Let you go away
I don't wanna
Let you go
Boy, I just wanted your love
I just need to feel your love
I just wanted your love
I don't wanna
Let you go

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
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."
