These broken streets and torn down buildings are reminders of those days we spent digging our own graves for a lost cause. Our shovels are the only friends we’ve got, but the asphalt turns to grains of salt and stays while bullets claim our stake at life. We mark this territory with flowers and bodies and remember those who died for us. I can still see the pride in their eyes. And every poem that was written will be carved into stone, but still you stay awake: statues keep you alive… …Now I can feel the rain against my face again. It’s all too clear, I think we are at war again. Battle against myself and the enemy is what keeps me alive and clears out the skies. But sleet and thunder never mattered at all, we still move on in line just waiting to fall. I’ll sign this sincerely for records then wave goodbye. I’ll see you on stage.

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
