This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
They make your bed, don't they?
Long ago they fought and died for faith - what's changed?
It's said that we've learned tolerance to build more bridges
Cross those rivers, yet modern man enslaves his conscious
The undertow of blame still flows between
Giving birth to the machine
Hostilities of ancestry
Slow to understand the variance
Quick to judge on one aspect
Rust
We call them fools today
They will call us fools in days to come - what's changed?
In any age it's ignorance
He that is not with me is against me
The river of pride swells too high
Washing those bridges out to sea
Giving birth to the machine
Too proud to love - too proud
Soaking in your fears, rusting away
Never comprehending, always condescending me
Slow to understand
Quick to judge, quick to condem
Rust
Carried them for years
Stones that they once cast
Place the blame on them as if it were their past
Yesterday's distrust
Resent, regret, disgust
Still we pay for their living
Pay for their mistakes (Always)
Who will cast the latest stones of hate? (Always)
Pay for their misgivings, pay for their living
We find that on the surface there is rust
Long ago they fought and died for faith - what's changed?
It's said that we've learned tolerance to build more bridges
Cross those rivers, yet modern man enslaves his conscious
The undertow of blame still flows between
Giving birth to the machine
Hostilities of ancestry
Slow to understand the variance
Quick to judge on one aspect
Rust
We call them fools today
They will call us fools in days to come - what's changed?
In any age it's ignorance
He that is not with me is against me
The river of pride swells too high
Washing those bridges out to sea
Giving birth to the machine
Too proud to love - too proud
Soaking in your fears, rusting away
Never comprehending, always condescending me
Slow to understand
Quick to judge, quick to condem
Rust
Carried them for years
Stones that they once cast
Place the blame on them as if it were their past
Yesterday's distrust
Resent, regret, disgust
Still we pay for their living
Pay for their mistakes (Always)
Who will cast the latest stones of hate? (Always)
Pay for their misgivings, pay for their living
We find that on the surface there is rust

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."
