We came out from the deep
To learn to love, to learn how to live
We came out from the deep
To avoid the mistake we made
That's why we are here!
We came out from the deep
To help and understand, but not to kill
It takes many lives till we succeed
To clear the debts of many hundres years
That's why we are here!
To learn to love, to learn how to live
We came out from the deep
To avoid the mistake we made
That's why we are here!
We came out from the deep
To help and understand, but not to kill
It takes many lives till we succeed
To clear the debts of many hundres years
That's why we are here!

@[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 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.
Alright, b4 I begin, let me say that I have heard this song about 30 time minimum. It started making sense when I started learning about souls journey and weird stuff like that. Here is what I think...
"We came out from the deep" ... We are reincarnated from the spirit world into our world/planet of choosing. This planet could be earth or any other with intelligence lives for souls to bind with and take over.
"To learn to love, to learn how to live." ... soul journey to becoming more is that of learning and experience acquisition. I am much even touched by this coz i heard that being a loner may hinder ur evolutionary soul development.
"To avoid the mistakes we made" ... every reincarnation is a chance to live and try to overcome certain past mistakes in our past lives. So...you may need to learn more on how "...to love, to learn how to live."
"It takes many lives till we succeed." ... yes, it is said that soul development is reaaally slow. In some life time, u may not even learn much, an utter waste.
"That's why we are here" ... alright said already, we are here for learning and experience accumulation towards becoming like the source or something like God.
The songs starts off with dolphins' sound.
Out from the deep could refer to a new specie(of human) coming out nowadays: tamed yet virtuous like with the true (philosophical) ability to understand, learn, love and live (to avoid past mistakes).
This new generation of humans is emerging from all the deaths and (again) mistakes throughout history like wars and all deadly ignorance (All lives taken are the debts of many hundred years).
One of Enigmas greatest song and guitar solos at the end - quite exciting.
My take on the song is not as enigmatic (pun intended) as the others listed. I just rediscovered the song and find it haunting. And very catchy in its simple refrain.
My initial thought was that it was a pro-science song about evolution. We came out from the deep (the ocean) and we are here to learn to love and live - not hate and kill.
In regard to the references to the mistakes we made, our many lives and hundreds of years, my interpretation is that its a commentary on colonialism and our many wars. The many lives are many generations, and hundreds of years refers to how, as a species we are actually becoming less violent and there is less death, not more. See Pinkers' "Angles of our Better Nature" for detail on that.
I see how it's easy to read a very spiritual message into the words. They are somewhat vague because...well Enigma, right?
In sum, even if it were complete nonsense, I cannot get this tune and the catchy refrain out of my head. Ultimately, every person has to decide for themselves, why are we here? Ah, THAT is why we are here! Sing it again!

When I heard this after studying the ET and UFO phenomenon in depth, I think that this song may refer to the history of the greys ET's. We know ET's have underwater bases and we have understood that they have been involved in devastating nuclear wars leading to reproductive problems. They are comming here on earth to warn against the danger of nuclear armageddon, the abuse of earths natural resources as well as the addiction of humanity to technology which also leads to climate change. They've had these problems and they warn us against repeating their mistakes. It may take many lifes (meaning reincarnations) to learn the lesson, but they are patient. We need to learn to learn to live in harmony with earth for the human species to survive. That's why they are here...
