John Frusciante Lyrics

    ------ About the song Time Goes Back performed by John Frusciante

A truly great song. Both the original and acoustic version are masterpieces of simplicity, engineered by a musician light years ahead of the rest. Johns ability to convey his thoughts into his music are simply not understood by most. A great musician, a great man. John Frusciante we love you.

    ------ About the song The Past Recedes performed by John Frusciante

This song can mean many things to many people. I dont understand why people choose to bang on about his heroin habbit, claiming every song he`s written is about smack. None of the people here know John, have ever met him or know how he feels personally. A guess, but an educated one. To me this song represents how life moves forward, regardless of your past. Stop talking about his drug habbit, start talking about his great music and how he will continue to evolve into a true legend. We love you John.

    ------ About the song Scratches performed by John Frusciante

Amazing track. I can only urge people to listen to the `Inside of Emptiness` album. Words cannot describe just how good it is. John Frusciante uses an amazing playing and singing style, just bloody brilliant.

    ------ About the song Look On performed by John Frusciante

I agree with the idea this song represents Johns struggle with drugs in the past. He sings with pure honesty and feeling about something which nearly destroyed him. Fantastic song, incredible album. Look on...

    ------ About the song Unreachable performed by John Frusciante

HE IS THE BEST MUSICIAN EVER.

Thank you dear god, for creating JOHN ANTHONY MOTHERFUCKING FRUSCIANTE.

    ------ About the song Carvel performed by John Frusciante

When I try I force it out (Whenever we "try" we are living in a fantasy world. "Trying" is a mental construct that separates an individual from the Present Moment and the Truth)

Never looking in only out (When we are caught up in mental fantasies, which all spring up from the central illusion of having a separate existence: "the ego" or "me," we lose our inner vision, soul, the essence or Oneness, Beingness beyond time and form)

Now is the time for millions to lose (You must drop the ego in the Now, the future and the past are mental constructs, Now IS all that exists)

Never the same since I lost you (When You drop the Ego, Life changes immensely).

Running me out of town (Running the ego out by separating Consciousness from forms, whether physical or mental)

Wishing the best around
Would only get off my back (The desire for the "best around," the ego, the selfish, self-important mental construct to leave)

Heaven receives you and throws you back (When you cast off your ego, it returns time and again)

Sending a dummy to my God (x4) (Sending the "false self" to God, the Source)

Driving to eat a Carvel cake (Having the goal of "eating" at "Carvel" distorts the experience of Reality)

Somewhere you know isn't where you think (When you KNOW, you don't think)

Have you gone away
Have you gone, have you gone away already
(come back, come back, come back, come back)
Have you gone, have you gone away already
(come back, come back, come back, come back)
Have you gone, have you gone away already
(come back, come back, come back, come back)
Have you gone, have you gone away already (Come back!, If you've gone away into planning for the future or daydreaming about the past...The lyrics call you back into the Now).

All the good times are on their way (self explanatory)
Up and down that's how energy stays alive (Ups and Downs are necessary for Life to sustain itself, don't take it personally)
Up and down that's how energy stays alive (same as above)
And I wouldn't have it any other way (Accept the flow of Life!)

    ------ About the song The Past Recedes performed by John Frusciante

It is futile to discuss who or what Frusciante is because everyone will see him through the windows of their experiences and we cannot truly KNOW who The Real Frusciante is. What we do know for sure is this album contains some astonishingly beautiful music and that is why all of you reviewed it in the first place.
