You're everywhere I've seen you bleed
High in my home
I watch you and miss you all day long
You keep me lying playing games with your pet brain
I know why you told me you had the right to!

I've always thought this train was just some
Phase but you ride on
You want me to ride around too

Fill your ego and bring you every inch of the way
I know why you need to kill all the pain there

Sympathize with me cause here I am
I am rolling on my head
Like a child you move so quickly
To touch the flame
You burn the vein goodnight

All along you run into mirrors
Everything you do is coming fast
Getting strong on the wrong from the money
Driving in your head you're in the train

Your only need in life is flying in the wind, I know
Why you told me it was your right to

You tell me to look and watch you go down in
Your vein, I know why,
To shock me
Your time for reaching

You're always slipping, slidding deeper when you
Breathe
I walk by
You force me to walk around you

Until the phone rings
Asking how much do you need
You tremble on
As if your tricks have been heard before

Sympathize with me cause here I am
I am rolling on my head
Like a child you move so quickly
To touch the flame
You burn the pain goodnight

As you glide through the river
Everyone just looks as if you're dead
If I had the strength of ten men
I'd pull your arms out and stick them on your
Head in pieces!!!

You drown me white washed crippled inside
Me my love
Is shoot to shame
Your right from wrong
It's emotion today
Release me life of no matter
My life is here I will overcome
Your life away
But your life will roll
Your life away
But your life will roll
Your life away
But your life will roll
Your life your way
But your life will roll

Your life your way
Your life your way
You like it

Oh brother
Brother can I see you now my brother
It's been to long since you've been away
Brother
You're driving hard to get away brother
I hope you've not gone too far

    A rare turn for Tim DeLaughter, this song expresses explicit anger at a former friend he lost to drug addiction. He slowly watched the friend he once knew fade from existence as the heroin consumed the former comrade. Some of the lyrics indicate that the friendship ended when Tim came to a crossroads: he could have followed down the same path, but chose not to. "Release me, life of no matter. My Life is here: I will overcome."

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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."
