Waking up on the floor
With no one else in the room
I never felt like this before
I just hope I'm leaving soon
And if tomorrow I don't wake up
Just know I really tried
To make the best of your forgiveness

Tell me one last time
How I never tried

Was so close to breaking through last time
Thought that I'd be sheltered
By nothingness
By the lack of consciousness

But I lay here awake
Too afraid to dream
'Cause if I might have to face myself
I'll buckle at my knees

Tell me one last time
How I never tried

I've seen the light
But never felt this close
Pushed my pain aside
'Cause I could never give it to those

'Cause I never see the point in sharing defeat
Displaying my debts to the world
I just live in repeat
Vacant and desperate

Tell me one last time
How I never tried

And if tomorrow I don't wake up
Just know I really tried
To make the best of your forgiveness
And tell my brother he'll be fine

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."
