For my whole life,
I have been burning down bridges
My only problem was foresight
I was standing on them,
I never looked down
And now I am knee deep in your bullshit
If you're ready for battle then I'm ready for war
So we can dance if you want lies

How easily we are deceived
How easily we believe lies

I will not run out of ammo
No more bowing my head
If every day is another slug
I will pull them out of my
I will not run out of ammo
No more bowing my head
For every day is another slug,
I will pull them out of my chest!

So raise your voices
And hold your hopes up high!
Tell your stories, run your mouth, and tell your lies!

After all this time
Don't wash my blood off of your hands
Let it crack and stain you,
So the outside can match the in
Oh, does it make you the fucking toast of the town?
To pull yourself up,
On those you're always putting down

So raise your voices
And hold your hopes up high!
Tell your stories, run your mouth and tell your lies
So raise your voices
And hold your hopes up high
Tell your stories, run your mouth and tell your

You curse my name
Burn down my house
As I bare my soul you cast your doubt,
And I can live without

You're passing judgement (you're passing judgement)
With side long glances (with side long glances)
Am I splitting hairs
Or do I dare to say?
You've had your chances
You're passing judgement
With side long glances
Am I splitting hairs
Or do I dare to say?
You've had your chances

So raise your voices
And hold your hopes up high!
Tell your stories, run your mouth and tell your lies
So raise your voices
And hold your hopes up high
Tell your stories, run your mouth and tell your

Curse my name
Curse my name
Curse my name
Curse my name
Fuck!

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.

Cajun Girl
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”

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Amazing
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.
