This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Well he's a creature without a care
Except for the fact that he'll only wear
The things he sees in magazines
He is a victim of mass production
I was brought up with my own beliefs
And well, I prided myself on being free
But the powers-that-be invaded me
Looking for some weapons of mass destruction
The first time that I met my mate
Was in a building that houses the things I hate
But she seemed to feel the things I feel
She is the object of my affection
I never thought that you'd care
I can't believe that you're still living there
But you'll always be the last who sees
You are a victim of mass production
Well I've seen it all before but that's not for me to say
We'll live
We'll die
We'll never say goodbye
Cause we're not supposed to be here anyway
Well he's a creature without a care
Except for the fact that he'll only wear out
The things he sees in magazines
He is a victim of mass production
I was brought up with my own beliefs
And well, I prided myself on being free
But the powers-that-be invaded me
Looking for some weapons of mass destruction
Well I've seen it all before but that's not for me to say
We'll live
We'll die
We'll never say goodbye
Cause we're not supposed to be here anyway
Well he's a creature without a care
Except for the fact that he'll only wear out
The things he sees in magazines
He is a victim of mass production
I never thought that you'd care
I can't believe that you're still living there
But you'll always be the last who see's
You are a victim of mass production
Except for the fact that he'll only wear
The things he sees in magazines
He is a victim of mass production
I was brought up with my own beliefs
And well, I prided myself on being free
But the powers-that-be invaded me
Looking for some weapons of mass destruction
The first time that I met my mate
Was in a building that houses the things I hate
But she seemed to feel the things I feel
She is the object of my affection
I never thought that you'd care
I can't believe that you're still living there
But you'll always be the last who sees
You are a victim of mass production
Well I've seen it all before but that's not for me to say
We'll live
We'll die
We'll never say goodbye
Cause we're not supposed to be here anyway
Well he's a creature without a care
Except for the fact that he'll only wear out
The things he sees in magazines
He is a victim of mass production
I was brought up with my own beliefs
And well, I prided myself on being free
But the powers-that-be invaded me
Looking for some weapons of mass destruction
Well I've seen it all before but that's not for me to say
We'll live
We'll die
We'll never say goodbye
Cause we're not supposed to be here anyway
Well he's a creature without a care
Except for the fact that he'll only wear out
The things he sees in magazines
He is a victim of mass production
I never thought that you'd care
I can't believe that you're still living there
But you'll always be the last who see's
You are a victim of mass production

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.
Head > Heels

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
'The first time that I met my mate Was in a building that houses the things I hate But she seemed to feel the things I feel She is the object of my affection'
I think this might be about how Ryan loves Kate Nash despite the fact she's a mainstream pop artist. Great song.
"Well he's a creature without a care Except for the fact that he'll only wear out The things he sees in magazines He is a victim of mass production I was brought up with my own beliefs"
I think this is a stab at the people who claim to be individuals, but actually they aren't that individual because they just follow the crowd and the latest trend. And how they(the band) try not to follow the crowds, and are actual individuals.
