This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I need an ambulance.
I took, I took the worst of the blow.
Send me a redeemer.
Let me know if I'm gonna be alright.
Am I gonna be alright?
'Cause I know how it usually goes.
I know how it usually goes.
I know how it usually goes.
I built a monument
For the love we used to know.
But that is far removed,
And you say that I'm gonna be okay.
And yeah, I'm gonna be okay.
But it doesn't seem that way.
No love, not today.
'Cause I was told to get out
Told to leave
Told I have my things in the parking lot.
No no no no no no no no no no no no baby
Yeah, just send me that ambulance
Oh, just send me that ambulance.
Whoa, oh, ohohoh, no oh
Whoa, oh, ohohoh, no oh
Thought you were made for me
And we shared our history
And in time you'll tear your eyes far away.
Like a rubbernecker's gaze
Is it really safe to say
That we're just made that way,
Made to brave the pain?
'Cause I was told to get out
Told to leave
Told I have my things in the parking lot.
No no no no no no no no no no no no baby
Yeah, just send me that ambulance
Oh, yeah, just send me that ambulance.
Whoa, oh, ohohoh, no oh
Whoa, oh, ohohoh, no oh
I need an ambulance.
I took, I took the worst of the blow.
Send me a redeemer.
Let me know if I'm gonna be alright.
Am I gonna be alright?
'Cause I know how it usually goes.
I know how it usually goes.
I took, I took the worst of the blow.
Send me a redeemer.
Let me know if I'm gonna be alright.
Am I gonna be alright?
'Cause I know how it usually goes.
I know how it usually goes.
I know how it usually goes.
I built a monument
For the love we used to know.
But that is far removed,
And you say that I'm gonna be okay.
And yeah, I'm gonna be okay.
But it doesn't seem that way.
No love, not today.
'Cause I was told to get out

And in time you'll tear your eyes far away.

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."

“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.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
This song is about that really horrible, crushing feeling you get when someone you never thought was going to leave you ends up dumping you. You actually feel briefly paralyzed by emotion, which is what I believe the lyrics are hinting at-- the feeling of being so heartbroken your heart literally aches in your chest, like some sort of sick heart attack. The singer knows that she's actually going to be okay eventually, but for right now, it seems so horrific that she's removed herself from her own mind.
The lyrics go on to describe a typical breakup (having to move out and pick up your things from the parking lot, still feeling attached to the other person but knowing that in time they'll stop looking at you with adoration), but also have an existential hint to them-- "is it really safe to say that we were made this way, made to brave the pain?". The singer is questioning whether human beings were meant to endure these kinds of emotions, or if they were meant to love each other at all. Even though the phrase "like a rubbernecker's gaze" is meant to be used as a simile, I feel as though it's also a literal statement about how when people break up, everyone seems to stop and stare at the spectacle.
The song is really powerful and in my honest opinion, accurately describes the feeling of losing someone who's given up on your relationship.
