Cool breeze and autumn leaves
Slow motion daylight
A lone pair of watchful eyes
Oversee the living
Feel the presence all around
A tortured soul
A wound unhealing
No regrets or promises
The past is gone
But you can still be free
If time will set you free
Time now to spread your wings
To take to flight
The life endeavor
Aim for the burning sun
You'll be trapped inside
But you can still be free
If time will set you free
But it's a long long way to go
Keep moving way up high
You see the light
It shines forever
Sail through the crimson skies
The purest light
The light that sets you free
If time will set you free
Sail through the wind and rain tonight
You're free to fly tonight
And you can still be free
And going higher than mountain tops
And go high the wind don't stop
And go high
Free to fly tonight
Free to fly tonight
Slow motion daylight
A lone pair of watchful eyes
Oversee the living
Feel the presence all around
A tortured soul
A wound unhealing
No regrets or promises
The past is gone
But you can still be free
If time will set you free
Time now to spread your wings
To take to flight
The life endeavor
Aim for the burning sun
You'll be trapped inside
But you can still be free
If time will set you free
But it's a long long way to go
Keep moving way up high
You see the light
It shines forever
Sail through the crimson skies
The purest light
The light that sets you free
If time will set you free
Sail through the wind and rain tonight
You're free to fly tonight
And you can still be free
And going higher than mountain tops
And go high the wind don't stop
And go high
Free to fly tonight
Free to fly tonight

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."
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
This song is about an experience Daniel had when he was young (though, of course, Darren wrote the song). A couple was arguing at their house and the man ended up shooting himself in their backyard. For a long time after that the family would get the feeling that there was someone else in a room with them, and Daniel often saw the same bird. He made up the story that it was the man asking for forgiveness. And now we have this song. Later on, it came to also have meaning for the death of Darren's PA's father, who he always dedicated it to at shows (along with anyone who ever felt lost).
@Savagedstar83 Oh wow, so glad I found this. Man... I've been going through some major Savage Garden reminiscing lately but it's a bummer because it feels like so much has dried up, or I just can't find it anymore. I remember them release a track-by-track blurb or paragraph on the website years and years ago. I wonder if anyone's collected or held onto any of this stuff.
This is one of the best written songs I've ever heard in my life. If you've heard the story behind how it was written, it seems much more significant. It was inspired by the death of a person, and how the writer feels that the person's soul can't move on and meet peace. Instead, it's staying where it shouldn't be, brooding on the past and wanting forgiveness that it will never get.
I love this song. Very well written. I don't really have much to say on it - Megs hits the nail on the head. Thanks Megs.

Play this song while you're crusing on the freeway...
Darren wrote this for his best friend's dad I'm guessing who died a while ago.
I've always loved this song. Megs is right about why it was written, which makes it even more inspiring. & like snufkin said, play this one while you're driving on the highway, especially at night, & see how it makes you feel. It's very moving. "You see the light, it shines forever. Sail through the crimson skies, the purest light, the light that sets you free...& go higher than mountaintops, & go high like the wind don't stop, & go high. Free to fly tonight..."
Wow! I didn't know that. I guess I view this song with a totally different perspective now. This song is so soothing, I love Savage Garden.
i love this song, it's so sad, but it's so deep, i can't help feeling sad when i listen to it. savage garden are awesome
It was perfectly explained by Savagedstar83...The good thing about it, it's that it can be not only about death, but about being lost...so I could relate to it myself and think: "The past is gone, but you can still be free..." Forgive yourself, and move on... I heard girls with bulimia or eating diseases used to relate to it, and that's totally feausible.
Darren's voice in hear is unbelievable beautiful and carries you away. "And go high, like the wind, don't stop..."
I'm only sorry that this stunning song will remain an undescovered gem for most people out there in the world.
"Everything will be okay in the end, If its not okay, then its not the end, "
...youre dead. But go to that better place. Meet again some day.
