This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I came to you, and you to me
And we were tapping on the window of the children when the piggy-bank broke
Pitching quite a fifth
But how the makers of the medicine will always say you're looking sick
I came to you, and you to me
And we would wear up to the women washing in the form of white gloves
But the funny thing was how in in god and
His people were dreaming about the wilds to leave
And all the fingers that we damaged when all we wanted was a diamond ring
I came to you (I came to you) , and you to me (and you to me)
And we were barking at the drug dogs, blood-dried-black on their hands
Never realized,
You never tussle with a giant till you can hit him right between the eyes
That no matter how we chose 'em we'll be chocking on the compromised
'Cause all the jaws, all the claws, they're restless by the riverside
And it was a muscle and a shadow that was shoving us into the light
I came to you, and you to me
And we were snatching out a poor baby's bottle just to trade it for change
But now it's come to pass
The every eye beneath the mountains saw the smoke and no one heard the blast
And no one knew the arm was broken, tho everybody signed the cast
Until the compliment was good she said man I thought you'd never ask
And when the world wore out their welcome they just booked up for a bag of grass
But when she cried on the grounds we were sucking all the laughing gas
And when the hat had left the body not a flag was hanging on us
I came to you, and you to me
And then we lost our own lovers revolution but then it all started again
Now we're one
One of the parade wailing widows walking home into the setting sun
One of the soldiers lost, and then dreams and never lose their gun
One of the wise-men wondered onto the podium without a tongue
One of the trophies' corners by the mess we made of being young
One of the wrayers, one of the promises swallowed without chewing gum
One of the deaf ear's dumber all of the time for all the years of drums
One of the wide-eyed soap boxes buried under washing time
One of the bee-cops combing every sidewalk-crack for love
One of the crowded stars uncounted when the math was done
One of the weather in the garden left to wonder when the rain will come
And we were tapping on the window of the children when the piggy-bank broke
Pitching quite a fifth
But how the makers of the medicine will always say you're looking sick
I came to you, and you to me
And we would wear up to the women washing in the form of white gloves
But the funny thing was how in in god and
His people were dreaming about the wilds to leave
And all the fingers that we damaged when all we wanted was a diamond ring
I came to you (I came to you) , and you to me (and you to me)
And we were barking at the drug dogs, blood-dried-black on their hands
Never realized,
You never tussle with a giant till you can hit him right between the eyes
That no matter how we chose 'em we'll be chocking on the compromised
'Cause all the jaws, all the claws, they're restless by the riverside
And it was a muscle and a shadow that was shoving us into the light
I came to you, and you to me
And we were snatching out a poor baby's bottle just to trade it for change
But now it's come to pass
The every eye beneath the mountains saw the smoke and no one heard the blast
And no one knew the arm was broken, tho everybody signed the cast
Until the compliment was good she said man I thought you'd never ask
And when the world wore out their welcome they just booked up for a bag of grass
But when she cried on the grounds we were sucking all the laughing gas
And when the hat had left the body not a flag was hanging on us
I came to you, and you to me
And then we lost our own lovers revolution but then it all started again
Now we're one
One of the parade wailing widows walking home into the setting sun
One of the soldiers lost, and then dreams and never lose their gun
One of the wise-men wondered onto the podium without a tongue
One of the trophies' corners by the mess we made of being young
One of the wrayers, one of the promises swallowed without chewing gum
One of the deaf ear's dumber all of the time for all the years of drums
One of the wide-eyed soap boxes buried under washing time
One of the bee-cops combing every sidewalk-crack for love
One of the crowded stars uncounted when the math was done
One of the weather in the garden left to wonder when the rain will come

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
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."

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
Corrections, going by what I heard:
I came to you and you to me And we were tapping on the window at the children when the piggy bank broke Pitching quite a fit 'Bout how the makers of the medicine will always say you're looking sick
I came to you and you to me And we would wimper to the women (washing milk?) above their former white clothes But the funny thing Is how when God was with his people we were dreaming bout who else to be And all the fingers that we damaged when all we wanted was a diamond ring
I came to you and you to me And we were barking at the drug dogs blood dried black on their hands And never realized You never tussle with a giant til you can hit him right between the eyes That no matter how we chewed it we'd be choking on a compromise 'Cause all the jaws all the claws lay restless by the river side And it was a muscle and a shadow that was shoving us into the light
I came to you and you to me And we were scratching at a poor baby's bottle just to trade it for change And now it's come to pass That every eye beneath a mountain saw the smoke but no one heard the blast That no one knew the arm was broken although everybody signed the cast Until the government was good she said, "Man, I thought you'd never ask" And when love wore out her welcome they just booked her for a bag of grass And while she cried on the cross we were sucking all the laughing gas And when the head had left the body not a flag was hanging half mast
[instrumental break]
(I came to you) (I came to you)
I came to you and you to me And then we lost our own lovers' revolution but it started again Now we're one
One of the parade waned widows walking home into the setting sun One of the soldier's lost, in their dreams they never lose the gun One of the wise men wandering the podium without a tongue One of the trophy's (taught us?) by the mess we made of being young One of the prayers one of the promises swallowed with our chewing gum One of the deaf ear's dumber all the time for all the years of drums One of the the wide eyed soap-boxers buried under washington One of the beat cops combing every sidewalk crack for love One of the crowded stars uncounted when the bag was done One of the withered and the guarded love to wonder when the rain will come
I couldn't make out some of the lyrics, still can't. It's not "wimper" as it sounds as if it starts w/ a R. And he definitely is saying "they wrestle us by the riverside." And finally, can't make out what he says after trophy's. May have to wait for the official lyrics.
But I we think have most of it now.
I just love this song. Seems like a much angrier Beam but he does jazz very well.
Still sounds like wimper to me. Don't hear the 'R' sound at all. And it's definitely "lay restless by the riverside", sorry... I do agree it's really hard to tell what he says after trophies, taught us sounds closest but doesn't really make much sense. Also, "washing milk"? Doesn't make any sense but that's what it sounds like.
