I'm sick of feeding my soul
To people who'll never know
Just how purposeless and empty they've grown
Because their language confuses like
Computers refuse to understand how I'm feeling today

I'm freezing, and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head
I am freezing, and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head

I saw a liquid control
That gives life to our soul
I hit my head on it and woke up to know
That I was all alone
Wearing just socks and a phone
Someone screaming like their world might explode

Yeah, I'm freezing, and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head
I'm freezing, and losing my way
I don't want another map of your head

Freezing, and losing my way
I don't want another map of your head
I'm freezing, and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head, yeah

    That's funny... I've always had a feeling that this song hasn't got anything to do with relationships... When I listen to "Map of your Head" I always think that Matt's saying that he doesn't want to know what people around him are thinking because the minds of those who surround us are, well, corrupted (I can't find a better word, sorry... My knowldge of English is far from perfect). It's bad enough knowing that, and he doesn't need a "map of someone's head" because that will only make him feel worse... You'll see what others are thinking... See how terrible they are at heart... It's a nasty thought.

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.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.
