I'm feelin sick inside
cause I can't believe it's happening
I thought that he'd be gone by now
We were on a break and you said you needed space to breathe
I didn't know your ex was in town

I finally figured it out

Chorus:
You're heartless
The devil in disguise
So heartless
You make me feel just like
I'm helpless, foolish, selfish, so alone
So heartless

When I asked you what happened
You sat there and lied to me
An swore you were just hangin out
So why'd you look so scared baby every time the phone would ring?
And how do you explain the stains I found?

I finally figured it out

Chorus #2:
You're heartless
The devil in disguise
So heartless
You make me feel just like
I'm selfish, foolish, helpless, all alone
You're heartless
There's nothing left inside but darkness
I finally realized
You're selfish, foolish, helpless, so damn cold
So so heartless
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

You're heartless
The devil in disguise
So heartless
You make me feel just like
I'm selfish, foolish, helpless, all alone

You're heartless
The devil in disguise
So heartless
You make me feel just like
I'm selfish, foolish, helpless, all alone
You're heartless
There's nothing left inside but darkness
I finally realized
You're selfish, foolish, helpless, so damn cold
So so heartless

Nah nah nah
Nah nah nah
Yeah yeah yay
Nah nah nah naah nah nah nah
So heartless
Nah nah nah
Nah nah nah
Yeah yeah yay
Nah nah nah naah nah nah nah
Heartless
Nah nah nah
Nah nah nah
Yeaaaaahhh
Nah nah nah naah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah
Nah nah nah
Nah nah nah naah nah nah nah
Heartless

Corpse I Fell In Love With
Gadjits, The
He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

The Spy
Doors, The
Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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 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."
