Varför förklara när jag slutat tro?
Vad finns det kvar mer än the biggest blow?
Den é så hundraprocentigt effektiv
När den tar våra liv

Vi fryser ihjäl, det är så kallt
Stackars barn
Men snart blir det varmt
Ja, vi fryser ihjäl, det är så kallt
Stackars barn
Men snart blir det varmt

Åttahundra grader
Du kan lita på mig, du kan lita på mig
Åttahundra grader
Du kan lita på mig, du kan lita på mig

Människor med stirrande blick
Du grät fast du inte fick
Varma kläder med så kalla kårar
Inte konstigt när jag bara ser dårar

Vi fryser ihjäl, det är så kallt
Stackars barn
Men snart blir det varmt
Ja, vi fryser ihjäl, det är så kallt
Stackars barn
Men snart blir det varmt

Åttahundra grader
Du kan lita på mig, du kan lita på mig
Åttahundra grader
Du kan lita på mig, du kan lita på mig

Ibland känns det ingenting alls,
Även när dom hugger av min hals
Bara så jävla tom
När jag väntar på min egen dom

Vi fryser ihjäl, det är så kallt
Stackars barn
Men snart blir det varmt
Ja, vi fryser ihjäl, det är så kallt
Stackars barn
Men snart blir det varmt

Åttahundra grader
Du kan lita på mig, du kan lita på mig
Åttahundra grader
Du kan lita på mig, du kan lita på mig

    Kärnvapen är ju sagt att den handlar om, och det tror jag nog också.

    Men vet ni att det blir faktiskt ungefär 800 grader i krematorieugnar?

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.

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.
