This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I rewrite my life beneath the moonlight
Please hold me now till my breath runs out
There are many things that I am not
But there's one thing that I can't deny
A double bluff you fed me lines
The shortest cut you're searching for
A mesh of tones surround your eyes
I wish I knew how it came to this
I always said you could rely on me
Now it seems that I was wrong
I want you to stay
I want you to stay with me
'cause nothing works round here
Where cranes collect the sky
I long for the neon signs of night
'cause nothing works round here
You know the way I feel
Can you remember what we had?
Why do you think I over take?
I speak to you and you say no
A camera runs just to collect
I wish I knew how it came to this
The lies we tell are bound on film
And you start to push your lips to mine
Outside my room you closed your eyes
And in the end it came to this
I always said you could rely on me
Now it seems that I was wrong
I want you to stay
I want you to stay with me
'cause nothing works round here
Where cranes collect the sky
I think of your face at night
'cause nothing works round here
You know the way I feel
Can you remember what we had?
As time gets more compressed
You're always my reminder
A lifetime disappears
Can you remember what we had?
As time gets more compressed
You're always my reminder
You're always my reminder
You know the way I feel
You know the way I feel
Please hold me now till my breath runs out
There are many things that I am not
But there's one thing that I can't deny
A double bluff you fed me lines
The shortest cut you're searching for
A mesh of tones surround your eyes
I wish I knew how it came to this
I always said you could rely on me
Now it seems that I was wrong
I want you to stay
I want you to stay with me
'cause nothing works round here
Where cranes collect the sky
I long for the neon signs of night
'cause nothing works round here
You know the way I feel
Can you remember what we had?
Why do you think I over take?
I speak to you and you say no
A camera runs just to collect
I wish I knew how it came to this
The lies we tell are bound on film
And you start to push your lips to mine
Outside my room you closed your eyes
And in the end it came to this
I always said you could rely on me
Now it seems that I was wrong
I want you to stay
I want you to stay with me
'cause nothing works round here
Where cranes collect the sky
I think of your face at night
'cause nothing works round here
You know the way I feel
Can you remember what we had?
As time gets more compressed
You're always my reminder
A lifetime disappears
Can you remember what we had?
As time gets more compressed
You're always my reminder
You're always my reminder
You know the way I feel
You know the way I feel

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
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 think by 'a mesh of tones' he means a bunch of different emotions are in her expression, so he can't quite pick out what specificlly she's feeling.. but yeah, an amazing song, goes without saying. I was so glad when they released it as a single. Although radio edits are evil.
