Didn't I know you, mystery man?
Strange as all new thoughts on impotence.
All I want are windows
It wouldn't be the first time.
Didn't I, didn't I know you?
Didn't I, didn't I know you, didn't I know you?
All along, all we've been given is the ugliest tidings.
All along, we've been a mess.
Now quick dilation is the only chance we have left.
A stranger's just someone that you've forgotten.
How will we know if we've met before or done this dance,
Mystery man?
Didn't I, didn't I know you?
Didn't I, didn't I know you, didn't I know you?
All along, all we've been given is the ugliest tidings.
All along, we've been a mess.
Now quick dilation is the only chance we have left.
Strange as all new thoughts on impotence.
All I want are windows
It wouldn't be the first time.
Didn't I, didn't I know you?
Didn't I, didn't I know you, didn't I know you?
All along, all we've been given is the ugliest tidings.
All along, we've been a mess.
Now quick dilation is the only chance we have left.
A stranger's just someone that you've forgotten.
How will we know if we've met before or done this dance,
Mystery man?
Didn't I, didn't I know you?
Didn't I, didn't I know you, didn't I know you?
All along, all we've been given is the ugliest tidings.
All along, we've been a mess.
Now quick dilation is the only chance we have left.

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.

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”
I Can't Go To Sleep

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
I may be crazy, but this seems like yet another reference to "Eternal Sunshine". It seems very much like how Clementine reacted to Joel after the 'memory wipe'. (Albeit a bit more polite.)
Anthony Green has commented that this song was written about the current lead singer of Saosin, Cove Reber. After Green had heard the new recording of his demo "I Can Tell... (There Was An Accident Here Earlier)" with Cove Reber on vocals, it felt like he was listening to the ghost of his former self -- since Reber's voice is very similar to Green's -- hence, "Didn't I know you?" and "A stranger's just someone that you've forgotten. How will we know if we've met before or done this dance, Mystery man?".
However, Green has also admitted that Juturna is indeed based on the plot and of "Enternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", but with his life in mind.
i have to go with what thebeard had commented, i heard that ant was pretty amazed how closely coves voice resembled his
but it does also sound like eternal sunshine for the spotless mind.
pretty fascinating
it could be from eternal sunshine. at the beginning joel and clementine are in a train and she wants to get tto know him. then she says "hi" and joel answers "oh, hello" ... "didn't i know you" is also from this scene. though it is also possible that it is from the scenes after the memory wipe.
"quick dialation is the only chance we have left" ??
"Quick dilation is the only chance we have left."<br /> <br /> Dilation means to make larger, and when you're talking about eyes, dilating the pupils is making them larger. Referring back to ESOTSM, I think what he's saying is that all we have left is this quick moment of time to see each other before we're gone from each other's lives forever.
"quick dialation is the only chance we have left""
that line makes me think of drugs...cause your eyes dilate when you do certain drugs...yaa so i dunno its' like what they depend on or something. i dunno.
I know it's a concept album, but I think it's based on if Anthony was Jim Carey in ESOSP. And how much the movie relates with real life, and how sometimes it would be easier just to wipe the person you love from your mind
"quick dialation is the only chance we have left"" defnitly makes me think or heroin or cocaine
its eternal sunshine. no question. if you havent seen the movie watch it, this will all click
"A stranger's just someone that you've forgotten."
That one line basically makes me thing its about eternal sunshine of the spotless mind. Im not gonna ruin the movie but watch it and figure it out if you havent :) Im sure you true circa survive fans have seen it though.
