As simple as breathing, I picture your face
All tangled in daydreams and shielded with grace
I feel you beside me again

Wherever you may be, lift up your head for me
There's somewhere in my heart, only for you
If I must do without, I'll let these sparks fly out
Across the wilderness from me to you

As certain as sunrise, your image unwinds
You're clearer than crystal, you fill up my mind
Now, I have you by my side

Wherever you may be, lift up your head for me
There's somewhere in my heart, only for you
Though continents divide and lonely thoughts collide
Our Heaven will allow, no distance now

I can always close my eyes
Take your absence by surprise
Hold my breath and make believe

As simple as breathing, I picture your face
All tangled in daydreams and shielded with grace

There's somewhere in my heart only for you
If I must do without, I'll let these sparks fly out
Across this wilderness from me to you

Wherever you may be
(Wherever you may be)
Lift up your head for me
(Lift up your head)
There's somewhere in my heart only for you
(Somewhere in my heart)

If I must do without
(If I must do without)
I'll let these sparks fly out
(Ooh, baby)
Across this wilderness from me to you
(Across this wilderness from me to you)

Wherever you may be
Lift up your head for me
There's somewhere in my heart only for you
(I'm missing you baby)
If I must do without
I'll let these sparks fly out

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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."

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
