if i could feel anything
it wouldn't feel at all like this
if i could wake anywhere
i wouldn't wake up at home
if i could hear anything
it would be your voice to say
you should be you should be at home here now
i dont feel at home at all
this is where i will sit
to pay for all the wrong i've done
this is where i will sleep
to pay for all the wrong i've done
this is where i will wake
to pay for all the wrong i've done
this is where i will think
about all the wrong i've done
hope your funeral goes as planned
and everyone falls all around you
bringing flowers to make a pillow
for your weary head
i wont be there when you scream
at all the voices all around you
saying the things you never ever want to hear about
i wont be there when you die
a thousand deaths for just one lie
it's amazing how you stay awake at all
i'll be waiting way down here
and i'll be waiting all alone
waiting for you waiting for you
all the rats and spiders
will probably laeve me here alone
just like everyone they've got something better
that they can do
everything that was to be
forgotten us and will be gone
everyone that was to be
now somehow all became a memory

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.

Cajun Girl
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”

Magical

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
