This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Mama told me to be happy, 'cause you always get what you want
Don't speak, you said I have your love, but not how much it will cost
Mama told me, when I was a baby, I'd love you but I don't
Don't speak, I hope you're happy, 'cause I think I paid what you owe
And by the time I grew your love had been sold to everyone else but me
And maybe when I'm old and speaking lingo you will be willing to see
And we'd be so clean
Trying to colour in this hole but it's too dark
And I've been holding
This little stone cause you said it was your heart
How much does your love cost? (x4)
I'm not a soldier, not a fighter
But I will stand my ground
And now I'm older, I'm not your daughter
You don't deserve my love now
And by the time I grew your love had been sold to everyone else but me
And maybe when I'm old and speaking lingo you will be willing to see
And we'd be so clean
Trying to colour in this hole but it's too dark
And I've been holding
This little stone cause you said it was your heart
How much does your love cost? (x4)
And I'm the best thing you ever had, but you're too busy burning fires (x4)
How much does your love cost? (x7)
Don't speak, you said I have your love, but not how much it will cost
Mama told me, when I was a baby, I'd love you but I don't
Don't speak, I hope you're happy, 'cause I think I paid what you owe
And by the time I grew your love had been sold to everyone else but me
And maybe when I'm old and speaking lingo you will be willing to see
And we'd be so clean
Trying to colour in this hole but it's too dark
And I've been holding
This little stone cause you said it was your heart
How much does your love cost? (x4)
I'm not a soldier, not a fighter
But I will stand my ground
And now I'm older, I'm not your daughter
You don't deserve my love now
And by the time I grew your love had been sold to everyone else but me
And maybe when I'm old and speaking lingo you will be willing to see
And we'd be so clean
Trying to colour in this hole but it's too dark
And I've been holding
This little stone cause you said it was your heart
How much does your love cost? (x4)
And I'm the best thing you ever had, but you're too busy burning fires (x4)
How much does your love cost? (x7)

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 transcribed these myself with some difficulty. Would really appreciate a second or third opinion, cheers. :)
