I woke up broken drunk from her potion
Sit in silence with this book wide open
Not enough photos to keep my attention
I want to stay open but my eyes keep closing
I'd rather nod off than deal with a death
Not of a loved one, just one that I miss
Not even really death, just gone away
No Daft Punk, Mr. West could keep me strong today
I walked away when she walked away
I didn't walk far, it doesn't matter anyways
Polar ends of the globe, I hope you know
That I'm still better off without you
And every table with an ashtray has got me labeled to be the rain's parade
Move fast to evade, sway past the rage
Got a one-way ticket on a jet airplane
And I don't know when I'll be back again
Until the ink runs out of my pen, I guess
Sick little notion of jumping the gun
Last minute marathon
Run fat boy, run
Everyone's still drunk, bummed out and numb
Trying to beat the skins of a different drum
Pedal hard to the double-bass
Watch it all go away
Kick, snare, kick, on another acid trip
Bored out of hell, that how far you fell
Caught me in the lens, looking at your sex cells
I see the blood on the stumps from your shoulders
We all start to change when the air gets colder
I walked away when she walked away
I didn't walk far, it doesn't matter anyways
Polar ends of the globe, I hope you know
That I'm still better off without you
I knew you were different, I just knew it
I had my chance, it passed, I guess I blew it
Dressed like a druid, she's exchanging fluids
And the city's still pretty, even when its in ruins
I knew you were wrong, you didn't have to do it
Destroyed the Rubix as a means to prove it
You grab the axe, I'll grab the shovel
We'll wreck this place until we solve the puzzle
I walked away when she walked away
I didn't walk far, it doesn't matter anyways
Polar ends of the globe, I hope you know
That I'm still better off without you
I walked away when she walked away
I didn't walk far, it doesn't matter anyways
Polar ends of the globe, I hope you know
That I'm still better off without you
And on the worst day of my life
I'll still be better off without you
And on the worst day of my life
I'll still be better off without 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."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
