Come closer and see
See into the trees
Find the girl
While you can
Come closer and see
See into the dark
Just follow your eyes
Just follow your eyes
I hear her voice
Calling my name
The sound is deep
In the dark
I hear her voice
And start to run
Into the trees
Into the trees
Into the trees
Suddenly, I stop
But I know it's too late
I'm lost in a forest
All alone
The girl was never there
It's always the same
I'm running towards nothing
Again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again
And again-gain-gain and again and again
And again and again-gain-gain and again
And again and again and again and again
And again
See into the trees
Find the girl
While you can
Come closer and see
See into the dark
Just follow your eyes
Just follow your eyes
I hear her voice
Calling my name
The sound is deep
In the dark
I hear her voice
And start to run
Into the trees
Into the trees
Into the trees
Suddenly, I stop
But I know it's too late
I'm lost in a forest
All alone
The girl was never there
It's always the same
I'm running towards nothing
Again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again
And again-gain-gain and again and again
And again and again-gain-gain and again
And again and again and again and again
And again

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."
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.
To me, its about being enticed by the perfect girl despite the theory being a myth. Obviously he goes along with the idea, only to find her being the same as everybody else.
Come closer and see See into the trees Find the girl While you can Come closer and see See into the dark Just follow your eyes Just follow your eyes
this is about thinking you see love, and hoping it is real. it's about staying cautious at the same time, and taking things as they come.
I hear her voice Calling my name The sound is deep In the dark I hear her voice And start to run Into the trees Into the trees
this is the feeling that you know it has to be love, and you start making sacrifices, and start realizing how deeply you love them. (the "into the trees")
Suddenly I stop But I know it's too late I'm lost in a forest All alone The girl was never there It's always the same I'm running towards nothing Again and again and again
after all the sacrifices you've made and after something you felt so strongly about, the other person does something to betray or hurt you. it starts to make you think that maybe the whole time you're love was an illusion....and that again, you are going to have to search for that missing love.
He's talking about falling in love with someone that doesn't love him.
The song, I think, is about think you're seeing love in a girl, and you start "following" her. The "Into the trees" thing.
"But suddenly I stop Im lost in a forest" He finds out that the girls doesn't like him at all...
To me, this seems like a metaphore for the narrator's experiences in love. After all, the whole concept of looking for love in another person means looking at them as something other than they really are, and after you realize they are a person and not your "beloved", you are left alone, hence:
Suddenly I stop But I know it's too late I'm lost in a forest All alone The girl was never there It's always the same I'm running towards nothing Again and again and again

the girl is the "american dream"
I can see how that would work, but I don't see it in this song... Interesting theory, though.
my favourite song by the cure.
..i'm way too tired to start deciphering it now that i'm here, though. damn it!
freakishfae hit the nail on the head.
Looking for something inside someone that doesn't exist within that person. Putting all your eggs in one basket.
great song! great mood he creates!
The song is about trees being analogous to lifeless, pointless, pablum people. And trying to find beauty and love, and life in a "forest". But only losing yourself instead.
Again, pay close attention to the music, and how every melody in the song is another tree sprouting from the ground into the sky before your face.
The da dum! da dum, da dum, da dum! are four more trees between you and what you dream of.
cry Best the cure song, best song ever. I often get goosebumps when I listen to it. THE CURE!
