The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
I sense your not avowed
I know there's death around
I catch the damage in the air;
I got the skull and bones
I lick the polished chrome
There's magic everywhere
Can I please just talk with you
Fear is deep and shaded blue [?]
I used to smile
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Feel Our Love
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Feel Our Love
Feel Our Love
Feel Our Love
Oh feel love ain't too much
For I love what I sung
What I've sung
I split in half
Now it's always
However you and I;
Love is always
Fun;
A single cross to bear
A team he proves are there
Where we won't we've got a night
The night begins a waste
It's all a bit to fake
Someone killer lines [Someone kill her eyes?]
It's failing something I could do
Tower spits I have the fuse
If I want I can't refuse
Jesus, now.
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Feel Our Love
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Feel Our Love
Feel Our Love
Feel Our Love
If love ain't now
For I love what I sung
What I've sung
To reflect to the one;
What I've sung
I split it in half
Now it's always
However you and I;
Love is always
on Fire;
Feel our love;
C'mon and feel our love;
Just feel our love;
I know there's death around
I catch the damage in the air;
I got the skull and bones
I lick the polished chrome
There's magic everywhere
Can I please just talk with you
Fear is deep and shaded blue [?]
I used to smile
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Feel Our Love
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Feel Our Love
Feel Our Love
Feel Our Love
Oh feel love ain't too much
For I love what I sung
What I've sung
I split in half
Now it's always
However you and I;
Love is always
Fun;
A single cross to bear
A team he proves are there
Where we won't we've got a night
The night begins a waste
It's all a bit to fake
Someone killer lines [Someone kill her eyes?]
It's failing something I could do
Tower spits I have the fuse
If I want I can't refuse
Jesus, now.
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Feel Our Love
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Come on and feel our love
Feel Our Love
Feel Our Love
Feel Our Love
If love ain't now
For I love what I sung
What I've sung
To reflect to the one;
What I've sung
I split it in half
Now it's always
However you and I;
Love is always
on Fire;
Feel our love;
C'mon and feel our love;
Just feel our love;

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."

No Surprises

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
These are the correct lyrics:
I sent your love about I know there's death around I catch the damage in the air I've got the skull and bones I lick the polished chrome There's magic everywhere
Can I please just talk to you Feelings deep and draining blue A useless line Come on and feel our love
Feel our love If love ain't too much Follow the white hot sun What I've sown I've split in half Now it's always however you impart Love is always on fire
A single cross to bear The TV crews are there Where we want with dirty knives The night begins a waste It's all a bit too fake Someone kill the lights
Famine's something I can do Towers splits I haven't used If I want I can't refuse It's useless now
Come on and feel our love I know there's death above Come on and feel our love
Feel our love If love ain't enough Follow the white hot sun Turn back to the one What I've sown I've split in half So now it's always however you impart Love is always on fire
Feel our love Come on and feel our love Feel our love
this songs about revenge, i mean its obvious the first verse is about accepting your mistakes and leaving what you have suffered in the PAST, then the line come on an feel our love, is like saying: "come here so then i can beat the fuck out of you"....
It's so hard to figure out what's being sung in this song but this is what I hear:
I said she'll learn about I know there's death around I catch the damage in the air I got the skull and bones I lick the polish chrome There's magic everywhere
Can I please just talk with you? Here there's deep and draining blue A useless mind
Come on and feel our love
I feel our love If love ain't too much
Far along the white hot sun What I saw, a spit in hell Now it's always However you inquire Love is always on fire
A single cross to bear The TV crews are there Where we want we've got an eye
The night begins her ways It's all a bit too fake Someone kill the lights
Planning something I can do Tower spits, I have the fuse If I want I can't refuse It's useless now.
Come on and feel our love I know there's death above
Feel our love If love ain't enough
Far along the white hot sun Turn back to the wall What I saw, a spit in hell For now it's always However you inquire Love is always on fire
Come on and feel our love
