Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
I could feel it, see it
The spirit as it was leaving my body
No, it would not stay for a while
It turned and laughed then crawled away
So far away-I could not see that far
All those things I held so sacred
They fail me
They betray me
These pins these needles
They never leave me
This crooked cross is bleeding deeply
Let the wine fill my veins
Bring the wind to change my mind
Wash away this dirty soul
This dirty soul of mine
The curtain it slowly closes
The players how they quickly
Change around you
Not a trace, no familiar face
Only the soundtrack and the bruises we keep to ourselves
I reach out and I wait forever
I speak out my thoughts die high
My cross is crooked
My spirit is denied
Let the smoke close my eyes
See this man is waiting
In the park it's raining so hard
Wash away this soul
This dirty soul of mine
Why can't you feel me?
The world is dying
Nothing stays the same
Nothing good remains
No one ever stays
Feelings always fade away
People change lives are destroyed
I will never walk with you again
Never again will we share the days my friend
The spirit as it was leaving my body
No, it would not stay for a while
It turned and laughed then crawled away
So far away-I could not see that far
All those things I held so sacred
They fail me
They betray me
These pins these needles
They never leave me
This crooked cross is bleeding deeply
Let the wine fill my veins
Bring the wind to change my mind
Wash away this dirty soul
This dirty soul of mine
The curtain it slowly closes
The players how they quickly
Change around you
Not a trace, no familiar face
Only the soundtrack and the bruises we keep to ourselves
I reach out and I wait forever
I speak out my thoughts die high
My cross is crooked
My spirit is denied
Let the smoke close my eyes
See this man is waiting
In the park it's raining so hard
Wash away this soul
This dirty soul of mine
Why can't you feel me?
The world is dying
Nothing stays the same
Nothing good remains
No one ever stays
Feelings always fade away
People change lives are destroyed
I will never walk with you again
Never again will we share the days my friend

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."
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.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
It's about how girls in this world are bitches and that the one girl he can trust is Mary Jane. If you look at the lyrics as a whole you'd see it kind of all just revolves around something like that
I'll go in more depth about it because I'm high as hell now and that's how I was when I came to my own interprrpreted meaning.
I'll start by saying that this is a sad song when it comes to the meaning, I think. It can go deeper than the lyrics show and I think it's supposed to be an anti-optimistic song to be listened to at a very anti-optimistic time (as sad songs usually go, and when yous high as a mothafucka).
The entire song is full of bad things that's happened to him. Betraying him, failing him, shit like that. Since the song is called Bitches, I assume that it's them who's causing all of this to happen to him. He's behind denied his spirit because he feels there is no perfect woman for him because they have all been bitches.
Marijuana (we'll call her Mary Jane) is the other part of the meaning. Maybe he feels that he's a broken soul with nowhere to go and that Mary Jane is the only woman to appreciate him. He feels that these bitches have scarred him. You know, more shit like that. The part where it's like "let the smoke close my eyes (somebody get me high), bring the time to change my mind" implies that Mary Jane can possibly change his view on women (as bitches).
That's basically the first part of the song, and the second part that starts like "Some say the world is dying..." is basically saying that his views haven't been changed and that he wants the memories of a dreadful life (or like some part of the past, or relationships or some shit) to just go away.
What I overall took from all this, I think it's basically saying that there is no point in being optimistic about anything because it al goes to shit anyway, so get high. To be completely more narrowed down (and shit), this song means "Don't give a fuck, and get high." When you read it that way, it don't sound so sad. hahaha
This is a badass song and the lyrics don't do it justice, you really have to hear the band to appreciate this song.'
Anyway, this song use to be one of the songs i'd listen to with my homeboy when we'd drive around getting High, and now that he's gone it's always going to remind me of him especially the end. Definitely recommend a download if you like this kind of music.
the world is dying nothing stays the same nothing good remains no one ever stays feelings always fade away
nothing more to say...

PLEASE FILL IN THE ?'s IF YOU CAN AND CHANGE LINES THAT I KNOW I HAVE WRONG. SORRY. BY THE WAY, THIS IS THE SECRET PART TO THIS SONG IF YOU'RE CONFUSED!
i will never walk with you again never again will we share the days my friend This reminds of of my homie Mike who died last year and the song seems to be about getting fucked up and thinking about EVERYTHING including dead friends
yes bitches, the best makeout song, the most chilling song. the title doesnt do it fit i think most people would think its another shock horror song from the boys, but if your looking to chill this song is the one, means peace and harmony to me. and yes the bonus track who could forget the ride at the end of the long tunel punks
yeah, i can barely make out what the hell he's saying in that song (Tits clits and bong hits)!!
this man(jahred)such a sinner. waging himself. wanting the friends he had and the friends he lost near him and realising that it's not meant to be. let the wine soften the feeling. and while he waits forever, he will not find what he is looking for. for all these people he has lost/lost contact along the way he has lost himself as i suspect that most of them are ladies. the crooked cross being a belief in something more, but feeling so undeserved. the beauty of grace. it's about knowing you betray yourself in letting others know you. there is so much to know.... hed pe fills me with love, what does it do for you?????
these lyrics are real messed up.
if you think the lyrics to this kind of music is 'messed up' then you dont get the message. you dont get the ideas and you dont get the symbolism. in other words your a closed minded person WAKE THE FUCK UP.
