This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Come back and haunt me, follow me home
Give me a motive, swallow me whole
They say I've lost it
What could I know when I'm but a mockery?
I'm so alone
Sooner or later
You'll find out there's a hole in the wall
Sooner or later
You'll find out there's a hole in the wall
Today is ours, condemned to be free
Free to keep breathing, free to believe
I look to find You, down on my knees
Oh, God, I believe, please help me believe
Sooner or later
They'll find out there's a hole in the wall
Sooner or later
You'll find out that you'll dream to be that small
I'm a believer, help me believe
I'm a believer, help me believe
I gave it all away and I lost who I am
I threw it all away with everything to gain
And I'm taking the leap with dreams of shrinking
Dreams of shrinking, dreams of shrinking
Dreams of shrinking
Come back and haunt me, follow me home
Give me a motive, swallow me whole
Sooner or later
Sooner or later
Sooner or later
Give me a motive, swallow me whole
They say I've lost it
What could I know when I'm but a mockery?
I'm so alone
Sooner or later
You'll find out there's a hole in the wall
Sooner or later
You'll find out there's a hole in the wall
Today is ours, condemned to be free
Free to keep breathing, free to believe
I look to find You, down on my knees
Oh, God, I believe, please help me believe
Sooner or later
They'll find out there's a hole in the wall
Sooner or later
You'll find out that you'll dream to be that small
I'm a believer, help me believe
I'm a believer, help me believe
I gave it all away and I lost who I am
I threw it all away with everything to gain
And I'm taking the leap with dreams of shrinking
Dreams of shrinking, dreams of shrinking
Dreams of shrinking
Come back and haunt me, follow me home
Give me a motive, swallow me whole
Sooner or later
Sooner or later
Sooner or later

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.
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."

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

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.
Two comments: 1) Soren Kirkegaard presented faith as the idea of a blind leap in the dark "And I’m taking the leap" This stood in stark contrast to the previous ideas that faith was something built upon knowledge. Soren's view of faith is the mainstream one today as can be seen in many people's view of religion and God. Evangelicals will still hold to the old view that faith is something built on knowledge and previous experience. That is to say faith in Christ isn't a blind leap in the dark, but is based on such things as a) fulfilled promises, b) personal experience, or c) the truth of changed lives that a person can see. This is true christianity, and it is unfortunate that most of the world, Christians included, can not see this. I don't check my head at the door of my church. In fact it is just the opposite, I walk into church and turn the criticism filter way up because the things discussed there, if true, have eternal importance.
Also I will note that Soren was looking for the "hole in the wall" by which he could find a way out of the room of this existance and into the higher world of Reality where faith in God would not be a leap in the dark, but would provide an intellectual basis for faith.
2) I will excuse myself some "reader response interpretation." from the song: Today is ours, condemned to be free Free to keep breathing, free to believe I look to find You, down on my knees Oh, God, I believe, please help me believe How many days do I wish for a robotic experience of submission to God's will. I burn so hot with shame when I fall, sin and have to come back on my knees crying for forgiveness. To be a robot would be so freeing! It would free my desires to serve God without distraction or failing. That would be ultimate, amazing, wonderful freedom. But it is not what God has for me. So I come back and pray "God help me believe." I mean this not just in the theoretical intelectual manner, instead I want to live that belief. To sin against God is to lack faith that He does provide a way of escape from all our temptations. It is to call God a liar, so I want to believe God actively, all the time. Help me believe!
