Shades of sun in my head
Blistered skin turning red
I can't complain
It's something to do
Cloud my mind and erase you

Since you're gone
All is wrong
Nothing seems the same down here
If you're gone
And I'm alone
Who's heart will I scar down dear?
Fall in
Fall out
Break free
Break down

Feel my legs pushing through
This world I built around you
I know the blame
Is not upon you
But I know the heartless things I choose
Since you're gone
All is wrong
Nothing seems the same down here?
If you're gone
And I'm alone
Who's heart will I scar down here
Fall in
Fall out
Break free
Break down
Why God, can't I die?
One kiss, goodbye

Drag this frown from my face
Force a smile to take it's place
I can pretend that I'm not confused
But I don't need the likes of you

Fall in
Fall out
Break free
Break down
Why God, can't I die?
One kiss, goodbye

Oh, the heartless things are true

    My Interpretation

    Sounds like he lost his love and now e's wallowing in the misery of it all possibly doing drugs ("I can't complain, it's something to do, cloud my mind and erase you"), all the while putting on a happy face and pretending to be okay and "act(ing) like (he's) not confused. At the end, he tries to convince himself that he's better off without her.

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."

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
