This is my melody
This is my sympathy for your coming out
This is your coming out parade

You've been here for several years
And your life's been quite alright 'til now
He says you've done something wrong, you've scored
But he says you've done something wrong

Reaching out for him to hold you
Or just to call you
Holding off for something
And just to sing along

This is my melody
This is my sympathy for your coming out
This is your coming out parade

This is my melody
This is my sympathy for your coming out
This is your coming out parade

Kindness is dead in this town
And drama has been crowned
The acceptable medium of living

Kindness is dead in this town
And drama holds the crown

All alone here and dying slow here
Screaming loud dear that you
You need more from me

This is my melody
This is my sympathy for your coming out
This is your coming out parade

This is my melody for your coming out
And this is your coming out parade

You know, you know it's gleaming out your eyes
And you know it's sneaking through your precious lips
You know, you know it's gleaming out your eyes
And you know it's sneaking through your precious lips

This is my melody
This is my sympathy for your coming out
This is your coming out parade

This is my melody
This is my sympathy for your coming out
This is your coming out parade

This is your coming out parade, parade
Parade, parade, parade, parade, parade
Your coming out, your coming out

    I don't know about that. It does seem like it, but I think these guys are Christian. I am not sure about that, so I might be wrong.

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”

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
