Ich liebe es, wenn der Tag vergeht
In einem letzten Spiel des Abendrots
Wenn der Mond sich über die Hügel erhebt
Und Dunkelheit die Leichenberge verdeckt

Ich liebe die Wanderungen bei Nacht
Wenn der Nebel sich auf die Toten legt
Wenn die Qual ihrer Fratzen das Dunkel tilgt
Und nur der Wind ihren Gestank mit sich trägt

Bei Tag schaffen sie die Toten hinaus
Nach draußen zu uns, in die Krebskolonie
Es sind nicht mehr viele, die sich nicht infizierten

Und täglich schwindet die Zahl der Negativen
Vor drei Jahren hat das Sterben begonnen
Der Virus kam zu uns über den Ozean

Dann wurden ganze Landstriche entvölkert
Krebskolonie, die Orte der Kranken genannt
Ich habe die Symptome an mir entdeckt

Ich ging in die Kolonie, bevor sie mich dazu zwangen
Meine einzigen Freunde sind nun die Virustoten
Denn bald werde ich einer von ihnen sein

An vielen Stellen platzt mein Körper entzwei
Durch faulendes Fleisch, seh' ich die eigenen Knochen
Wenigstens nimmt der Virus einem die Schmerzen
Und schaltet dein Gehirn fast gänzlich aus

Gestern zwang mich der Hunger, von den Toten zu essen
Der Geschmack war zwar bitter, aber sonst okay
Die Augen des Leichnams blickten mich dabei an
Dann fraß ich auch sie und ihre Anklage verschwand

Ich liebe, wenn mein Körper vergeht
Denn der Tod ist besser, als ein Leben hier
Voller Inbrunst sehn' ich mich nach jener Stunde
Wenn der Mond sich über meiner Leiche erhebt
Und Dunkelheit den Verstand mit sich trägt

Kraft durch Krebs

Mein Hirn zersetzt sich
Beständig, mit jeder Stunde
Doch mein Leben klammert sich an mich
Lässt mich nicht frei

Metastasen verbeulen meinen Leib
Ein schmieriges Grau läuft aus meinem Auge
Der Gestank schreit himmelweit
Wenn ich an den Wunden sauge

Krebs macht frei
Alles verliert seinen Sinn
Bevor ich sterbe
Nehm' ich noch manchen mit
Kraft durch Krebs
Mein Körper tut kaum mehr seinen Dienst
Kraft durch Krebs
Ich bin der wandelnde Tod

Krebs macht frei
Kraft durch Krebs

Ich schlachte eine der Wachen
Am Rande der Krebskolonie
Jetzt hab' ich all die Waffen
Betrete im Fieberwahn die Stadt
Kugeln finden ihr Ziel

Und Dutzende fallen in den Staub

Sie wissen nicht, warum sie sterben
Der Asphalt färbt sich scharlachrot
Der sanfte Abendwind
Trägt den Hall der Kugelsalven fort

Meine Munition droht, zu versiegen
Noch drei weitere Negative sterben
Dann ist nur noch eine Kugel im Lauf
Ich heb' sie für mich auf

Krebs macht frei
Ich nehm' es für mich als gegeben
Jetzt ist die Zeit gekommen
Zu beenden mein Leben
Kraft durch Krebs
Mein Körper kann kaum mehr aufrecht stehen
Krebs macht frei
Und die Kugel reißt den Schädel entzwei

Kraft durch Krebs
Krebs macht frei
Kraft durch Krebs
Krebs macht frei
Kraft durch Krebs
Krebs macht frei
Kraft durch Krebs
Krebs macht frei
Kraft durch Krebs
Krebs macht frei

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
