You got a smart mouth,
dripping with that southern charm.
And I'll be sure to make a point of you,
so don't go too far.

Oh, you thought you had me fooled,
when you were spinning tales,
of love and rendezvous.
But I'm over it.
Yeah, I'm over you.

Your hands are still as red
as the lipstick you smeared on me,
so lovingly.

You can't solve all your problems,
cramped up in the backseat.
It's surprising with all your delusions.
You so convincingly give off the illusion
of stable and charming.
Your talent's alarming.
Well, darling,
you're losing your touch.

You thought you had me fooled,
when you were spinning tales,
of love and rendezvous.
But I'm over it.
Yeah, I'm over you.

Take it from me, princess,
you're not the brightest crown in the box.
'Cause lies have a way of reaching the top,
surfacing where you thought that they would stop.
But I've got ears,
and more wit than you do.
You've been caught,
lacking truth.

It's a wonder how you could love anyone else,
when you're head over heels in love with yourself

    Holy hell i love this song! that little break near the end is insane! and has an ultra sikk bassline. I love how this album has like three different styles: Southern Metal, Post-Hardcore and some borderline deathcore stuff.

    So this song is definitely about some hot ass southern girl, who gets everything with her looks and that pretty southern charm. The singer is warning her that she cant get everything she wants by "being cramped in the backseat", if ya catch my drift.

    He tell's her that she's not fooling him, and that her style and looks are slipping. She obviously isn't "the smartest crayon in the box", love that line, and when her looks start to fail she will be left with no way to get anything. Cuz she sure doesn't have the brains for it.. He leave's her saying "It's a wonder how you could love anyone else, when your head over heels in love with yourself" Honestly a seriously great song with some seriously good quotes.

    No doubt, this band is going far. They have an awesome sound, and hell on their first album got Jonny Crai and Craig Owens to do guest vox!

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
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”

Mountain Song
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."

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
