This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Will the situation bring you around?
The black of night is closing all around you
The crippling fear moves in as they strap you down
Will you let 'em only get the best of you
Or will the situation bring you around
When the blood stains dry
Will it bring you around
Or will it pass you by
[Chorus]
Right now you're bruised and bleeding
I see the hurt within your eyes
I know your pain is for a reason
You need to feel just to know that you're alive
The days have turned to weeks but it is not over
The bandages rewind you to where you've been
These memories will remind you
When life takes you out, will it bring you around
When it's said and done, will it bring you around
What will you become?
[Chorus: x4]
The black of night is closing all around you
The crippling fear moves in as they strap you down
Will you let 'em only get the best of you
Or will the situation bring you around
When the blood stains dry
Will it bring you around
Or will it pass you by
[Chorus]
Right now you're bruised and bleeding
I see the hurt within your eyes
I know your pain is for a reason
You need to feel just to know that you're alive
The days have turned to weeks but it is not over
The bandages rewind you to where you've been
These memories will remind you
When life takes you out, will it bring you around
When it's said and done, will it bring you around
What will you become?
[Chorus: x4]

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."
I Can't Go To Sleep

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Just A Little Lovin'
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/
this song is simple. its how you go through the hard times in life the ones you feel like you will never get out of. will you crash and burn or will you know that coming out of it you will be stronger than before.
this song is obviously about a cutter. its talking about why this person who cuts themselves to dull the pain does it.
i really like this song, very intense and hardcore.
i don't agree 100% with Kittt but Kutless did say in an interview that they chose to use "Kutless" as their band name because Jesus took all our "cuts" for us leaving us "Kutless."<br /> <br /> anyways i agree with taskmaster<br /> we feel all this pain and we choose to get something (that will essentially "bring us around") or we can let the pain take over as and we can suffer even more<br /> <br /> "Right now you're bruised and bleeding<br /> I see the hurt within your eyes<br /> I know your pain is for a reason<br /> You need to feel just to know that you're alive "<br /> <br /> he sees that we're hurt but he allows it to happen so that we can strengthen our relationship with Him
I kind of believe that you all all right in a way. It's totally about hard times and how you deal with them. But it does seem to be more related to cutting. As someone who has struggled with cutting, the song does a very good job of describing the emotions that are related to cutting. The bandages rewind you to where you've been... "Will you let the moment get the best of you", will you fold and turn to your temptation. but if you do, "Will it bring you around"...<br /> <br /> But that could be me just relating the song to my own personal experiences.
I'm not any kind of big fan of Kutless, I heard the song on the radio again this morning and looked up the lyrics.
The song isn't obviously about cutting and the band says that, though their band name wasn't a reference to cutting, the name has attracted cutters so why wouldn't this song have a little reference to that in it.
It made me think of cutting because the line "You need to feel just to know that you're alive" which reminds me of the line from Iris "you bleed just to know you're alive" is the description of how my wife felt in the many years in her life that she cut. Her pain is something I've come to understand very well - there's a horrible numbness. As far as the bandages line, I don't think most cutters use bandages - they love their scars because it shows the pain within. My wife hid her cuts/scars from others but not from herself, that was the point. After years of sexual abuse, her father still won't acknowledge what he's done to her, but her scars don't lie about the pain she felt and still sometimes feels.
Now I don't know how Christian Kutless really is but the hardening of your heart that has to go on to live in severe pain and abuse really hardens your heart making you unable to feel anything, as an adult you can't interact with people or even your children in any healthy way, you keep doing things that destroy yourself (even down to abusive friends and spouses) - Christ is the only answer but not one we seek merely as an alternative to cutting but as the truth.
