Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Wolves beset this fallen church of blasphemy
Orgies in blood shall deflorate its purity
Defecate on the liars book of sick belief
No one shall be saved the way to hell has here been paved
A din of stained glass fragments
Cut your flesh to the bone
Baptized in black blood
Hymen breached with a cross
Children of your lord
Semen peppers their faces
We seek to distort
Our kingdom shall come
Rise! The dead burst forth from ancient tombs
The steaming bowels of seraphs violently strewn
Hell is here sermons backwards preach death and doom
Flagellate and rape bloodlet the pilgrims of their faith
Drain them of their sanctity
Perpetuate their tragedy
Infect them with all our disease
Mock his altar of deceit
With hell reborn
Your Christ be scorned
Diabolic ritual open the portal to damnation
Dark legions gathering for virtuous insemination
Molest and sodomize deride the seed of god's creation
Impale the Nazarene succumb to spiritual inversion
In our unholy fathers disgusting house of shame
We revel in endless hatred burning so absolute
Corrupting all who'd enter here surrender to darkness
We kneel to those no more who'd burden and beguilt
Within these wretched walls a summoning proceeds
What form will manifest of this abysmal devilry
The children now are bleeding we eunuchate his sons
To evil blood and fire this earth will soon succumb
With hell reborn
Your Christ be scorned
Dead faith now torn
His love deformed
Orgies in blood shall deflorate its purity
Defecate on the liars book of sick belief
No one shall be saved the way to hell has here been paved
A din of stained glass fragments
Cut your flesh to the bone
Baptized in black blood
Hymen breached with a cross
Children of your lord
Semen peppers their faces
We seek to distort
Our kingdom shall come
Rise! The dead burst forth from ancient tombs
The steaming bowels of seraphs violently strewn
Hell is here sermons backwards preach death and doom
Flagellate and rape bloodlet the pilgrims of their faith
Drain them of their sanctity
Perpetuate their tragedy
Infect them with all our disease
Mock his altar of deceit
With hell reborn
Your Christ be scorned
Diabolic ritual open the portal to damnation
Dark legions gathering for virtuous insemination
Molest and sodomize deride the seed of god's creation
Impale the Nazarene succumb to spiritual inversion
In our unholy fathers disgusting house of shame
We revel in endless hatred burning so absolute
Corrupting all who'd enter here surrender to darkness
We kneel to those no more who'd burden and beguilt
Within these wretched walls a summoning proceeds
What form will manifest of this abysmal devilry
The children now are bleeding we eunuchate his sons
To evil blood and fire this earth will soon succumb
With hell reborn
Your Christ be scorned
Dead faith now torn
His love deformed

@[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.
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."

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

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.
yeah sick ass song
