[Verse One:]
Never gonna put you out,
Never gonna let you down,
Never gonna break your heart,
Never gonna mess around.
Never gonna tell you lies,
Never gonna make you cry,
All those things you said,
Now would you mind telling me why,
I'm out here all alone,
And I'm feeling let down,
My heart's broken up in two,
I'm wondering what was true.
Hearing all the shit you said,
Now somebody else is in your bed,
And now that I've got your attention...

[Chorus:]
Listen to the sound of me breaking down, down, down,
Can't hear me losing my mind?
Everything that's everything is nothing,
And I can't tell your truth from your lies.
This is the sound of me breaking down, down, down,
Over and over in my head.
You're a liar, a liar, a liar.

[Verse Two:]
So why don't you just hush up all that noise,
That's all it ever was.
Hope you're gonna try to confess,
What you should've said.
Just a simple friend,
I didn't mean to fall in love,
Well I fell for the spell that you cast,
And as if that wasn't enough.
No hold up right now (wait a minute baby),
I gotta get this off my chest somehow,
'cause I'm running out of ways to say just what I mean,
Can you tell by the look on my face,
That I just want to scream.

[Repeat Chorus]
[Break:]
All the things we do in the heat of the moment,
It can cost you a lifetime of happiness.
All the things we do in the heat of the moment,
For many days to come can cause you nothing but distress.
All the things we said in the heat of the moment,
You may think everything's going right,
But the very next day they change.
All the things you said in the heat of the moment...

[Repeat Chorus to fade]
[Outro:]
Sometimes in our lives,
See there's right or wrong, right or wrong, right or wrong,
See I'm here to let why'all know,
That my life, my life, my life,
That my life goes on

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.
