Listen up, turn it up and rock it out
Party on, I wanna hear you scream and shout
This is real, as real as it gets
I came to get down to get some fucking respect
Taking it back to hardcore level
You better be ready, put your pedal to the metal
Taking it back to hardcore level
You better be ready, put your pedal to the metal

Go!

Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved

I want domination
I want your submission
I see you're not resisting
To this temptation
I've got one confession
A love deprivation
I've got a jet black heart
It's all fucked up and it's falling apart

Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved

I've got another confession
I fell to temptation
And there is no question
There was some connection
I've got to follow my heart
No matter how far
I gotta roll the dice
Never look back and never think twice

Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved

Take your past, burn it up and let it go
Carry on, I'm stronger than you'll ever know
That's the deal, you get no respect
You're gonna get yours
You better watch your fucking neck
Take the past, burn it up and let it go
Carry on, I'm stronger than you'll ever know
That's the deal, you get no respect
If you try to get hard you better watch your fuckin' neck

Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give up
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
I just wanna be, wanna be loved
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in (take your past, burn it up and let it go)
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in
Whoa oh oh oh, I'll never give in (take your past, burn it up and let it go)
I just wanna be, wanna be loved

    Hmmm yeah. the band has reinvented itself. Well its a continued change from Lovehatetragedy. I think Infest was one of their better albums but this is an early release from Paramour Sessions so its hard to tell how it will compare.

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.

Magical

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
