High life
You're wondering if it's worth it
You're wondering what to do
You're asking me to see the future
And you want me to tell it to you
See I can't believe it myself
So how can I prove it to you
That this is all a dream
Okay follow me down
Come on you can trust me now
Okay follow me down
You can trust me now
Recurring thoughts of separation
Ones in which we are all alone
What keeps our heart from feeling wholeness
And everywhere we look we see ourselves
I'm not inclined to think in braided spirals
I know I wasn't always this way
What do I do and is it really worth it
Okay follow me down
Come on you can trust me now
Okay follow me down
You can trust me now
You're wondering what to do
You're asking me to see the future
And you want me to tell it to you
See I can't believe it myself
So how can I prove it to you
That this is all a dream
Okay follow me down
Come on you can trust me now
Okay follow me down
You can trust me now
Recurring thoughts of separation
Ones in which we are all alone
What keeps our heart from feeling wholeness
And everywhere we look we see ourselves
I'm not inclined to think in braided spirals
I know I wasn't always this way
What do I do and is it really worth it
Okay follow me down
Come on you can trust me now
Okay follow me down
You can trust me now

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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's about hitting on a girl/or a hookup/one night stand
I think the male in the situation is more emotionally vulnerable possibly with not much experience.
he wants her to "see the future and tell it to you" shows nervousness and/or lack of experience.
the next set of lines get's a bit deeper I love the "everywhere we look we see ourselves"
this is a comment on a humans basic psychology of simply ALWAYS seeing the world from their own biased perspective. everything that happens or someone does is interpreted by the individual from their own experiences.
I'm not inclined to think in braided sprirals, I know I always wasn't this way. the mental image of strands weaving in and out (braided) back and fourth from a lover to separation she probably has done this before spirals= but never really connecting "is it really worth it" everywhere we look we see ourselves though... so it's like an inner conflict in her mind, she enjoys it but is sort of conflicted like is there really more to it anyway? same with the guy (also conflicted) but in a different way it seem
sexual metaphor aside, on a deeper note i feel like the song hits on the whole balance and duality to things in life (as cliche as that sounds)
it's not intended to shame sexual promiscuity I don't believe it's not intended to be preachy it's just kind of hitting on a deeper level of a realistic interaction.
that's just my interpretation, kind of late and abstract thoughts so I may not have gotten it 100% (i'm just going to post this because I know if i re-read it I will chop it all up and end up deleting this)
