Where, where are we?
It got so misty I couldn't see
And as you lay your head
On this sunken bed
Do you regret me?
[Chorus]
Does my way destroy you?
And if I knew
Could I stop these
Habits of mine?
'Cause when I
Open my eyes, I'd give anything to see you
Do I drive you away with these pictures of blue?
When I open my eyes
I'd give anything to see you
To see you
Do the shadows
Brighten you when you sleep?
I feel alive
I'm no longer a storm
This heart is getting warm
Tell me
Do you regret me?
[Chorus]

I don't have cause to hate anymore
I'm not afraid to be alone
Well, sometimes I catch myself laughing
And it's all because of you
When I
Open my eyes I'd give anything to see you
Do I drive you away with these pictures of blue?
When I open my eyes
I'd give anything to see you
When I
Open my eyes, I'd give anything to see you
Do I drive you away with these pictures of blue?
When I open my eyes
I'd give anything to see you
When I
Open my eyes, I'd give anything to see you
When I
Open my eyes, I'd give anything to see you
When I
Open my eyes, I'd give any any thing
When I
Open my eyes, I'd give any any thing

    the lyrics all come directly from the cd booklet, so i'm pretty sure they're as right as they can be ...

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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

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.
