This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
On the sands of time
We have walked, your hand in mine.
My memory's photographs are kind
But more in love than pictures fade
Like sunsets disappear
Aimless lovers dream
But they're just castles made of sand
Before an endless wave of love's demands
All that once was treasured here
Is slowly washed away
Leave your light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Keep your light on for me
I'm a hopeless moon
Above a cold and empty sea,
A partial ray of sun exposing me,
Lost without a warming touch,
The earth has come between.
Like a distant star
On a dark and cloudless night,
You're always burning, always bright.
But I'm an island far from you
Where skies are never clear.
Leave your light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Keep the light on for me
I love you, darlin', don't give up too soon
The light of love will find this hopeless moon
I love you, darlin', don't give up too soon
The light of love
Leave your light on for me
Oh, Leave your light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Keep the light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Oh, leave your light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Keep the light on for me
Oh, I love you, darlin', don't give up too soon
The light of love will find this hopeless moon
I pray the God of love His light to shine,
Illuminate this lonely heart of mine
(Up too soon, hopeless moon)
Light of love
(Light to shine, heart of mine)
Light of love
(Up too soon)
Will find this hopeless moon
(hopeless moon)
Oh, I love you, darlin'
We have walked, your hand in mine.
My memory's photographs are kind
But more in love than pictures fade
Like sunsets disappear
Aimless lovers dream
But they're just castles made of sand
Before an endless wave of love's demands
All that once was treasured here
Is slowly washed away
Leave your light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Keep your light on for me
I'm a hopeless moon
Above a cold and empty sea,
A partial ray of sun exposing me,
Lost without a warming touch,
The earth has come between.
Like a distant star
On a dark and cloudless night,
You're always burning, always bright.
But I'm an island far from you
Where skies are never clear.
Leave your light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Keep the light on for me
I love you, darlin', don't give up too soon
The light of love will find this hopeless moon
I love you, darlin', don't give up too soon
The light of love
Leave your light on for me
Oh, Leave your light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Keep the light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Oh, leave your light on for me
Leave your light on for me
Keep the light on for me
Oh, I love you, darlin', don't give up too soon
The light of love will find this hopeless moon
I pray the God of love His light to shine,
Illuminate this lonely heart of mine
(Up too soon, hopeless moon)
Light of love
(Light to shine, heart of mine)
Light of love
(Up too soon)
Will find this hopeless moon
(hopeless moon)
Oh, I love you, darlin'

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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
