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 can't believe I thought I'd show you
The way tomorrow, please
Just peak at the ground
I been achin' just to go to
Wherever your head's at
Just please bring it down
Things I'd like to show you
Cause you don't even know you
Do you, girl?
I need to feel your angle
Cause things don't wanna mangle
Answer me, girl
Take your pick, you pick the bark off
Stopped you and we need you back
To turn things around
Things above and it's not far off
That everyone'll give you crap
Please come down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Things I'd like to show you
Cause you don't even know you
Do you, girl?
You sit through all your feelings
Not the one who's feeling
It all, girl
It's creeping over your palm
Now can you keep it that calm
Time to wake, girl
I need to feel your angle
Cause things don't wanna mangle
Answer me girl
Don't do it, give in this time
Because without it
Things will start goin' down
I try to stop you cause I know why
You been smilin' lately
Dancin' around
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
There's things I'd like to show you
Cause you don't even know you
Do you, girl?
There's things you gotta do here
Each little thing too near
Let 'em go, girl
You sift through all your feelings
You're not the one who's feeling
It all, girl
It's all so big and twisted
Please come help me fix it
Snap out of it, girl
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
The way tomorrow, please
Just peak at the ground
I been achin' just to go to
Wherever your head's at
Just please bring it down
Things I'd like to show you
Cause you don't even know you
Do you, girl?
I need to feel your angle
Cause things don't wanna mangle
Answer me, girl
Take your pick, you pick the bark off
Stopped you and we need you back
To turn things around
Things above and it's not far off
That everyone'll give you crap
Please come down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Things I'd like to show you
Cause you don't even know you
Do you, girl?
You sit through all your feelings
Not the one who's feeling
It all, girl
It's creeping over your palm
Now can you keep it that calm
Time to wake, girl
I need to feel your angle
Cause things don't wanna mangle
Answer me girl
Don't do it, give in this time
Because without it
Things will start goin' down
I try to stop you cause I know why
You been smilin' lately
Dancin' around
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
There's things I'd like to show you
Cause you don't even know you
Do you, girl?
There's things you gotta do here
Each little thing too near
Let 'em go, girl
You sift through all your feelings
You're not the one who's feeling
It all, girl
It's all so big and twisted
Please come help me fix it

Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down
Come on down, come on down
Come on down

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."

I think it means come on down like, stop worrying and come and join us [wherever], like he's talking to someone who's worrying about something he feels is irrelevant, or they don't need to worry about it. Comfort and assurance sort of thing
