I've been movin' along
But just to get away
Airstreams carry me on
And at the end of the day
I wake up

Only to find that you're on my mind
It happens all of the time
And I, I don't know why

You're caught in the headlights
I want to tell you
It's taken it all night
Just to burn through
You're caught in the headlights
And now you're chasin'
What's makin' you feel right
My heart is always racin'

Ashtray catchin' the rain
On an empty patio
And I'm just goin' insane
'Cause they don't ever want me to go
Where I'm going

Only to find that you're on my mind
It happens all of the time
And I, I don't know why

You're caught in the headlights
I want to tell you
It's taken it all night
Just to burn through
You're caught in the headlights
And now you're chasin'
What's makin' you feel right
My heart is always racin'

You're caught in the headlights
I want to tell you
It's taken it all night
Just to burn through
You're caught in the headlights
And now you're chasin'
What's makin' you feel right
My heart is racin'

You're caught in the headlights
I want to tell you
It's taken it all night
Just to burn through
You're caught in the headlights
And now you're chasin'
What's makin' you feel right
My heart is racin'

You're caught in the headlights
I want to tell you
It's taken it all night
Just to burn through
You're caught in the headlights
And now you're chasin'
What's makin' you feel right
My heart is always racin'

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.

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”

Blue
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.
