This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
It was a beautiful letdown
When I crashed and burned
When I found myself alone
Unknown and hurt
It was a beautiful letdown
The day I knew
All the riches this world had to offer me
Would never do
In a world full of bitter pain and bitter doubts
I was trying so hard to fit in, fit in 'til I found out
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I will carry a cross and a song, where I don't belong (I don't belong)
I don't belong here
It was a beautiful letdown when You found me here
Yeah, for once in a rare blue moon
I see everything clear
I'll be a beautiful letdown
That's what I'll forever be
And though it may cost my soul
I'll sing for free, yeah
We're still chasing our tails and the rising sun
And our dark water planet's still spinning in a race where no one wins
No one's won
See, I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I will carry a cross, a song where I don't belong (I don't belong)
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I don't belong
I'm gonna set sight and set sail for the Kingdom come
Kingdom come, Your Kingdom come (I don't belong)
Won't you let me down? Yeah (I don't belong)
Let my foolish pride forever let me down
Ah, easy living, You're not much like Your name
Easy dying, hey, You look just about the same
Would you please take me off Your list?
Easy living, please come on and let me down
We are a beautiful letdown
Painfully uncool
The church of the dropouts
The losers, the sinners, the failures and the fools
Oh, what a beautiful letdown
Are we salt in the wound?
Hey, let us sing one true tune, yeah
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
No, I don't belong here (I don't belong here)
I don't belong here (I don't belong) (hey)
Feels like I don't belong here (I don't belong)
Yeah, I don't belong here (I don't belong)
Feels like I don't belong here (I don't belong here)
I don't belong (I don't belong)
(I don't belong)
Would you let me down? (I don't belong)
Come on and let me down (I don't belong)
You always let me down (I don't belong)
So glad that I'll act now (I don't belong)
Yeah (I don't belong)
Come on and let me down (I don't belong)
'Cause I don't belong here
Please, won't You let me down?
When I crashed and burned
When I found myself alone
Unknown and hurt
It was a beautiful letdown
The day I knew
All the riches this world had to offer me
Would never do
In a world full of bitter pain and bitter doubts
I was trying so hard to fit in, fit in 'til I found out
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I will carry a cross and a song, where I don't belong (I don't belong)
I don't belong here
It was a beautiful letdown when You found me here
Yeah, for once in a rare blue moon
I see everything clear
I'll be a beautiful letdown
That's what I'll forever be
And though it may cost my soul
I'll sing for free, yeah
We're still chasing our tails and the rising sun
And our dark water planet's still spinning in a race where no one wins
No one's won
See, I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I will carry a cross, a song where I don't belong (I don't belong)
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I don't belong here (I don't belong)
I don't belong

Kingdom come, Your Kingdom come (I don't belong)

Yeah, I don't belong here (I don't belong)
Feels like I don't belong here (I don't belong here)
I don't belong (I don't belong)
(I don't belong)
Would you let me down? (I don't belong)
Come on and let me down (I don't belong)
You always let me down (I don't belong)
So glad that I'll act now (I don't belong)
Yeah (I don't belong)
Come on and let me down (I don't belong)
'Cause I don't belong here
Please, won't You let me down?

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

i luuuv this song! such great lyrics...it really is a beautiful letdown, a bittersweet kinda realization when you see how foolish all ur pride really was and how things of this world are quite insignificant in the face of a God who is much better than anything this world can offer. :)
