This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Haphazardly, tumbling hard
Fall right down,
Laugh out loud
All in the scheme of things,
We're all looking up growing tall
It's like pulling one hair
You are what you are to me
With wet fingers
In my eyes you're a star
Petroleum jelly
You're something I'll never be
And watch the rain dance
You're something, I'm frightened of
I've got to get clean
The rain will cleanse me
And I've got to wash these filthy hands
Because it's all just a futile plan
That'd mean I'd have to
Believe again
It's like a career to breathe
An existence I can't conceive
Emotionless as in slug
In my imagined oblivion
It's as much fun
As poking at a nerve
You would swear,
That I could,
Walk and talk
No one wants to fail
But no one wants to work
But I doubt you will ever
Vocabulary test is graded on a curve
Ever prove enough
Smartest kid is stupid
Word is never heard
I doubt you'll ever prove it!
I've got to get clean
The rain will cleanse me
And I've got to wash these filthy hands
All these thoughts and feelings
Are for naught unappealing
So you expect them
To dull and fade
Still they remain
Caught waiting for the rain
Time devours life
With my soul as the defendant
Don't catch me if I fall
I may have jumped
You never know
You don't know me at all
Fall right down,
Laugh out loud
All in the scheme of things,
We're all looking up growing tall
It's like pulling one hair
You are what you are to me
With wet fingers
In my eyes you're a star
Petroleum jelly
You're something I'll never be
And watch the rain dance
You're something, I'm frightened of
I've got to get clean
The rain will cleanse me
And I've got to wash these filthy hands
Because it's all just a futile plan
That'd mean I'd have to
Believe again
It's like a career to breathe
An existence I can't conceive
Emotionless as in slug
In my imagined oblivion
It's as much fun
As poking at a nerve
You would swear,
That I could,
Walk and talk
No one wants to fail
But no one wants to work
But I doubt you will ever
Vocabulary test is graded on a curve
Ever prove enough
Smartest kid is stupid
Word is never heard
I doubt you'll ever prove it!
I've got to get clean
The rain will cleanse me
And I've got to wash these filthy hands
All these thoughts and feelings
Are for naught unappealing
So you expect them
To dull and fade
Still they remain
Caught waiting for the rain
Time devours life
With my soul as the defendant
Don't catch me if I fall
I may have jumped
You never know
You don't know me at all

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.
Holiday

@[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
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."

aight, this song is one of the best songs EVER so yall better begin worship
this song kicks ass but im not too sure what it means....
All I can say right now...is that everything in the lyrical pattern of this song seems random....I recomend you all step back and look at the BIG PICTURE.....thanks
in my opinion i think its about people are greatly intimidated by the people they love. for example i love my father but the person who he is makes me hate myself more cuz i can only think that he's so much better than me. its like i have "filthy hands" compared to him.
this song is about masterbating to a girl he is afraid to approach and he hates himself for being weak
Well, this guy friend of mine, came up to me put a cd in my pocket and told me listen to #4. I said ok (I was really confused). I listened to it and i thought its about being a bit afraid and intimidated by someone you have feelings for.The speaker in the song is afraid and intimidated because compared to this person, hes like "filfthy hands". After Thankgiving vacation, i came back to school and he got the courage to ask me out. So, In my case, he liked me and was afraid to ask me out because he felt he wasnt good enough to be with me. We only lasted about a month though. True story. He did tell me that he masterbated to me once, so it could be that other meaning, but i think i'll stick with mine.
Hey The_Hobs, I'd never come up with that interpretation, but in some weird kind of way it might fit. Still, there's so much in it, I just can't make sense of. Like a lotta thoughts bouncing about, richochetting and intertwining, and all... I also thought about what born4of3desire wrote, and there is something to that explanation as well. Well, lyrics_r_meaningful, the lyrics were certainly meaningful to that guy who gave you the cd. This is so romantic, how it helped him to finally get in touch w/ you. It might well be that both interpretations sort of came together in his case. I mean, what else could he do before you two got together. And he probably did blame himself for not finding the strength to tell you that he loved you... Anyway, I just love that song, although I haven't figured all of it out for myself as yet (and probably never will). But the piano part is just great, and the way it first seems chaotic but everything together just comes out fine once you've gotten to know it a bit.
Doesnt this in an odd sense say he's tried & failed @ everything in life & he doesnt expect any mercy? He knows he cant control what will be with whoever hes in contact in with cuz his whole hes bn only helped & hasnt had 2 face reality & hes finally getting hes in deep. Hes tried 2 grow up & find a career but none of his plans seem 2 work as his mind conjures them 2 be. He feels like he deserves an answer 4 all these pointless things that people consider sinful thoughts & wants i guess but no rain will cleanse & make his mind clear.
dunno what it means, but it kicks major feckin ass indeed it does peace out you all
mushroomhead rocks, they've got sum kick ass guitar
Anyone?
