Queen & John

Good Riddance

You spoke your piece
with a trembling voice then turned away
I'm looking for reasons why do i always act this way
Running on self pity I was only thinking about myself
you said I never considered you so you need some time alone

Now you're upstairs and I'm going down and I know that it's my fault you're not around
So this is loss how sweet regret just don't give up on me yet

I know that I've hurt you I made it harder than it has to be
if I wasn't so selfish would you want to stay with me
Under any circumstance could you give me one more chance
I want so much to turn it around but this old behavior brings me down

Now you're upstairs and I'm going down and I know that it's my fault you're not around
So this is loss how sweet regret just don't give up on me yet

With an aching chest and a two ton heart
I retrace my steps trying to find my part
Regretting words words that came out wrong at the Second Cup at the corner of Queen and John
Queen and John

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.

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.
