There once was love
Thrown into your room
But you never knew
A calendar
Of days just for you
But you never knew, never knew, no
And the truth that you'll find
Will always be
The truth you hide

(Chorus)
So how do you love
How do you love
When your angels can't sing
And your world is still
Lacking of me, yeah

There once were eyes
That only saw you
But you never knew
A portrait of
A flower in full bloom
But you never knew, never knew, no
And the words that you fear
Will always be
The words you hear, yeah

(Chorus)

This space where you've been living
Has gifts you've never given
That's the face
You always show
Ask me for words of wisdom
Tell me of your condition
I don't know
I don't, I don't know

And the truth that you'll find
Will always be
The truth you hide, yeah

(Chorus x2)

How do you love (x10)

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.
