Trust
Got it all to hide
Got it figured out
want to do whatever?
Laugh until September?
And I seem to think
That you were once here with me
Baby I was wrong
You were moving on
(Chorus)
And I sit and wonder
Falling under
Get my way or nothing will move on
Everyone has gone
You feel so empty
But I've got me a friend
And I like it alone
And I know you say
I can't care for someone
But are you that clever
That you'd smile forever
Is it summer yet?
'cause I just don't feel it
Baby its a treaty
Maybe you are not her
(Chorus)
Say now
Got it
for one day and do i?

    I read something about the song's title before, but I don't remember where. As with a bunch of their songs, this song has to do with summertime, and in this case, love during the summer. And basically, during summers off from school/work, including when lyrics were written, the members of the band used to hang out in an arcade and they always used to argue about which video game was the best one there, Shinobi or Dragon Ninja. Put two and two together, and yet get the title. I might have messed something up there, but I think that's the basic idea.

    The song title is about an arcade game the Prophets used to play on in a cafe in Pontypridd. They were gutted when Dragon Ninja was replaced by Shinobi. All the kids used to go in and play against each other/

    the lostprophets just needed a cool song to open the album with so they wrote this, cause their guitarist had a cool riff already done. the band says it doesnt really mean anything.

In fact all of the Lost Prophets' lyrics were lost. But i guess that doesnt matter now cause everythings back, cept for The Handsome Life Of Swing. I cant find the lyrics to that ANYWHERE. If anybody could direct me id appreciate it.

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.

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."

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.
