This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Broke my bong on purpose
Hit the ceiling with weed
That summer benzo blackouts
Erased my identity
At Vintage Vinyl to pick up some CDs
For ripping rails not listening
This is starting to scare me
Three perfect chords get me closer to heaven
Been Mapping The Abyss Since 2007
Here I am again at Ben's myspace grave
And then out of nowhere
The smell of his basement
Where we watched Faces of Death
And we regretted it
Imagining victory
Our alternate history
The songs we never wrote
They float above and below me
Keepsake tinnitus shrieks me to sleep
Each frequency's a memory of some
Show we attended
Fuck your learner's permit
Drive down to Philly with me
To see the Wrens in a rec room
Out in the street where out heat turns to steam
And every surface is mercury glass
Wanna wake to listen to records
But those old feelings elude me
I wanna toast to the rock n' roll ghost
But it ain't whiskey
It's Emergen-C
Almost died a thousand times
High is just a tingling behind my eyes
Got no serotonin left
Signed away your right to be forgotten
Almost died a thousand times
High is just a tingling behind my eyes
Got no serotonin left
Signed away your right to be forgotten
Hit the ceiling with weed
That summer benzo blackouts
Erased my identity
At Vintage Vinyl to pick up some CDs
For ripping rails not listening
This is starting to scare me
Three perfect chords get me closer to heaven
Been Mapping The Abyss Since 2007
Here I am again at Ben's myspace grave
And then out of nowhere
The smell of his basement
Where we watched Faces of Death
And we regretted it
Imagining victory
Our alternate history
The songs we never wrote
They float above and below me
Keepsake tinnitus shrieks me to sleep
Each frequency's a memory of some
Show we attended
Fuck your learner's permit
Drive down to Philly with me
To see the Wrens in a rec room
Out in the street where out heat turns to steam
And every surface is mercury glass
Wanna wake to listen to records
But those old feelings elude me
I wanna toast to the rock n' roll ghost
But it ain't whiskey
It's Emergen-C
Almost died a thousand times
High is just a tingling behind my eyes
Got no serotonin left
Signed away your right to be forgotten
Almost died a thousand times
High is just a tingling behind my eyes
Got no serotonin left
Signed away your right to be forgotten

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
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."

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
This is my favorite song off of the album
This song is all about missing a friend who died of an overdose. Every time the narrator is high (which is as normal as breathing, as he says "high is just a feeling behind my eyes" to insinuate its nomality) he has memories and flashbacks of driving high or watching a scary movie or the smell of his friend's basement.
The narrator often visits not only his friend's memories that they shared; he visits.his Myspace "Grave"
Overall, the music that Joseph, our narrator and singer loves, unavoidably summons memories of a dead friend on which Joseph is on the same path.
