Sur cette musique-là
Avec la même intro
Qui n'en finit pas
Toujours dans l'ombre
Tu n'aimais pas que l'on se voie
Alors dans l'ombre
Chacun pour soi

Une mélodie pour Élodie
Une petite fille de mes amis
Qui avait une drôle de maman
Avant
On s'est aimé comme on s'envole
Sur une musique et des paroles
Deux météores au firmament
Passant
Une mélodie pour Élodie
Et pour deux années de ma vie
Qui sont passées comme en rêvant
Deux ans

Sur cette musique-là
Avec un vieux chanteur
Qui trafiquait sa voix
L'un contre l'autre
Enlacés pour une autre fois
L'un contre l'autre
Chacun pour soi

Une mélodie pour Élodie
Une petite fille de mes amis
Qui avait une drôle de maman
Avant
Une chanson tendre pour qu'elle m'entende
Pour qu'elle se souvienne en passant
D'un vieil hôtel, d'un océan
Du vent
On s'est aimé comme on s'envole
Sur une musique et des paroles
On s'est réveillés différents
D'avant

Une mélodie pour Élodie (sur cette)
Une petite fille de mes amis (musique-là)
Qui avait une drôle de maman
Avant
Une chanson tendre pour qu'elle m'entende (sur cette)
Pour qu'elle se souvienne en passant (musique-là)
D'un vieil hôtel, d'un océan
Du vent
On s'est aimé comme on s'envole (sur cette)
Sur une musique et des paroles (musique-là)
On s'est réveillés différents
D'avant

Une mélodie pour Élodie (sur cette)
Une petite fille de mes amis (musique-là)
Qui avait une drôle de maman
Avant

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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."
