@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
I felt alive
Take me from the city.
Stand up this is a fucking ovation.
Stand up! Stand up!
All together we scream
I thought this was all a part of the plan
In the end we walk out (walk out)
Walk with me
Talk with me
I'll take you away from this place
As legends go we are at the end
Here's a column of my own so let's begin (begin)
Walk with me
Talk with me
This place we cannot erase
Forget what they said
You will love me the same way
Let's break the cycle
What you thought I despised sent me frantically spinning into the sky
Like we're facing off with our nightmares
The hero will never die
Never going the same way
Can't collide with what doesn't need a heartbeat
And I will make you believe that this look was mistook
With what doesn't need
All together we scream
I thought this was all a part of the plan
In the end we walk out (walk out)
Walk with me
Talk with me
I'll take you away from this place
As legends go we are at the end
Here's a column of my own so let's begin (begin)
Walk with me
Talk with me
This place we cannot erase
The city only breathes through you
And all the cracks that you've fallen through
As legends go we are at the end
Here's a column of my own so let's begin (let's begin)
I thought this was all a part of the plan
In the end we walk out (walk out)
Walk with me
Talk with me
This place we cannot erase
Take me from the city.
Stand up this is a fucking ovation.
Stand up! Stand up!
All together we scream
I thought this was all a part of the plan
In the end we walk out (walk out)
Walk with me
Talk with me
I'll take you away from this place
As legends go we are at the end
Here's a column of my own so let's begin (begin)
Walk with me
Talk with me
This place we cannot erase
Forget what they said
You will love me the same way
Let's break the cycle
What you thought I despised sent me frantically spinning into the sky
Like we're facing off with our nightmares
The hero will never die
Never going the same way
Can't collide with what doesn't need a heartbeat
And I will make you believe that this look was mistook
With what doesn't need
All together we scream
I thought this was all a part of the plan
In the end we walk out (walk out)

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."
No Surprises
Radiohead

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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
lmao. have you ever played ffvii or ffx? while almost all of the songs on Wires are about final fantasy, i believe EVERY song on Adelphia is about or references both. even on youtube, in many ASD interviews, joey says they're influenced by final fantasy.
Adelphia itself means brotherhood brotherhood is the sword tidus gets from wakka in the beginning of ffx.
Prelude to a Dream- "I felt alive. Take me from the city." Sin first shows up in Zanarkand at the biltzball tournament and tidus gets "sucked into" the monster. He speaks of feeling alive because later on in the game Tidus finds out he is just a dream.
"I thought this was all a part of the plan. In the end we walk out." possibly speaking of when tidus and gang meet lady yunalesca and she reveals that yuna must chose one of her friends to be the final aeon- they "walk away" and look for another solution to sin.
"I'll take you away from this place." Forest scene- tidus tries to convince yuna to abandon her pilgrimage and run away with him to his zanarkand of the past. "As legends go, we are at the end." tidus and gang end up defeating sin for once and all. "Here's a column of my own, so let's begin." all the summoners who fight and destroy sin are made into monuments that the people of spira worship in temples.
"Let's break the cycle." again, a reference to sin always coming back every 10 years, regardless of the sacrifices summoners make.
"The city only breathes through you, and all the cracks that you've fallen through." come on... its obvious
The Children of Adelphia- "First to the sea, then to the sky. It's beautiful I know you'll like it." tidus says this to yuna in the forest cutscene
Air the Enlightenment- yuna's point of view after tidus disappears, most likely referencing ffx-2.
Eva the Carrier- ffvii in my opinion.. though it fits for both games. take away the J, N, O from Jenova and you get Eva.
Heaven- this song could go either way, ffvii or ffx. i like to think of it as a ffx reference because of the lines "Rise Up on your feet girl. The world awaits your smile." i always think of the end of ffx on the airship when yuna tries to grab tidus but stumbles through him and falls on the ground... youtube it and you'll see what i mean.
I Swear This Place Is Haunted- Play Crisis Core for psp and watch Advent Children. this song is Such a huge reference to them.
"Is there something beyond science going on here?" the geo stigma disease in advent children
"I'm moving forward now. The thought of a ghost brought me to life," throughout Advent Children Cloud sees Aeris and she guides him to redemption "Turn all of this white." Every time he thinks he's talking to Aeris the screen fades to white
"The creature at night, you said it would never find out where I rest my head at night." Reference to Sephiroth's return
"Let us be the ones who block out the sun. Light projects through myself." The first part is talking about shinra and how it was destroying the planet in ffvii. The second part- Cloud always talks about finding his light (or aeris)
"I have learned of the virus." again, geo stigma
"Build it up. Break it down. We built this it's ours." in advent children, kadaj reveals that sephiroth can be reborn easily with jenova's head. at that point, president shinra says "the Lifestream courses through our planet back and forth across the borders of life and death. If that cycle is the very truth of life, then history, too, will inevitably repeat itself.So go on; bring your Jenovas and your Sephiroths. It won't matter. We'll do as life dictates and stop you every single time."
Running With the Light- reference to light again
See You Around- i believe this song has both tidus' and yuna's point of view after they defeat sin. "Erase me. I'm a figment of imagination." tidus is a dream of the fayth "That place where I knew that I could find you, I think I'll make a run for it. And if I don't find you there, I'll search forever." holy moley, in ffx-2 yuna searches for tidus the entire game!
Thank God Its Cloudy- this could also go both ways, ffx or ffvii. "I deserve an explanation, not a consequence for the offense that I have committed." makes me think of when tidus and gang get arrested by Bevelle for killing Seymour (the first time.. damn he was annoying) ... just play the game or youtube it...
Those Cannons Could Sink A Ship- cloud vs. sephiroth...
in Wires:
the song title "all it takes for your dreams to come true" is a direct quote from vii when the president dies
Balance- "Listen to my story..this may be our last chance People die and people dance" tidus says this in the beginning of ffx; people die and yuna dances
"I'm Not A Thief, I'm A Treasure Hunter" - direct quote from rikku (ffx)
Eris And Dysnomia- Eis = Aeris Dysnomia translated means strife (cloud strife) (ffvii)
and there are many other examples in Wires that I can tell you about if you desire more obvious evidence. I can even go into more detail with the songs I did mention, but seeing as i've already written a novel, I will stop now.
oh wait a second.. I forgot one song off of Adelphia. What's it called? oh yeah!
It's Not Ironic, It's Obvious.
best beginning to a cd
This song is fantastic. It's a great open to an awesome CD. - And most of their songs are about Final Fantasy. Haha.
actually in their dvd jag mentions that no. their songs are not about final fantasy. there are SOME references in wires but not one song of theirs is actually about final fantasy.
the begining is brilliant
hehehe... it sounds like he says bacon... XD
I think this song is about Final Fantasy X.
