This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
You're so sensitive,
You can feel a single hair curl while you're sleepin',
And each fraction of a millimeter fingernail's growth.
You show half a heart when you play euchre
And I face the punching bag, and do what I'm told,
But you stoop so low,
To write a word in white pastel on a skull shaped gauge,
You say: "I'm not myself without my challenger commemorative button
On the chest of my brown down vest."
You say: "Coffee's turned my dark days into Woody Allen anxiety."
You say: "Hide in Denver, and I remember Montreal. I swear I'll write soon."
Don't encourage the wind;
The candles will retire.
The cumulative weight
Of all my chain letter curses.
Something about this
Is clowns with knives.
An ambulance siren
Searching for an injured person.
That ain't no god
It's just a hedge on fire.
That ain't no god
It's just a burning bush.
You're so sensitive,
You can feel a single hair curl while you're sleepin',
And each fraction of a millimeter fingernail's growth.
Don't encourage the wind;
The candles will retire.
The cumulative weight
Of all my chain letter curses.
Something about this
Is clowns with knives.
An ambulance siren
Searching for an injured person.
That ain't no god
It's just a hedge on fire.
That ain't no god that ain't no god that ain't no god...
You can feel a single hair curl while you're sleepin',
And each fraction of a millimeter fingernail's growth.
You show half a heart when you play euchre
And I face the punching bag, and do what I'm told,
But you stoop so low,
To write a word in white pastel on a skull shaped gauge,
You say: "I'm not myself without my challenger commemorative button
On the chest of my brown down vest."
You say: "Coffee's turned my dark days into Woody Allen anxiety."
You say: "Hide in Denver, and I remember Montreal. I swear I'll write soon."
Don't encourage the wind;
The candles will retire.
The cumulative weight
Of all my chain letter curses.
Something about this
Is clowns with knives.
An ambulance siren
Searching for an injured person.
That ain't no god
It's just a hedge on fire.
That ain't no god
It's just a burning bush.
You're so sensitive,
You can feel a single hair curl while you're sleepin',
And each fraction of a millimeter fingernail's growth.
Don't encourage the wind;
The candles will retire.
The cumulative weight
Of all my chain letter curses.
Something about this
Is clowns with knives.
An ambulance siren
Searching for an injured person.
That ain't no god
It's just a hedge on fire.
That ain't no god that ain't no god that ain't no god...

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.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
Does anyone else think the "candles" (that will retire) might have lit that burning bush? Maybe a commentary on the belief in god. Disbelief will happen naturally, don't encourage it?
