This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
she left him a note
on the dining room table
she finally had the last word
the day that she went away
she left him a note
she hated confrontation
it was impossible to say to him
everything she had to say
i am losing my mind
nothing seems right
i do not know who i am anymore
i am losing the fight
i hate my life
i wish that it was easier
to be in love
she cries herself to sleep
on the floor of her apartment
she found herself a new place
about a half a mile away
she drinks herself to sleep
she gets lost inside the darkness
she is making up for lost time
every night and every day
i am losing my mind
nothing seems right
i do not know who i am anymore
i am losing the fight
because i hate my life
i wish that it was easier
to be in love....
you make me want to scream sometime.....
no more drama
no more pain
we argue about the same things
over and over again
no more drama
i cant take the constant strain
i don't understand
why being with you
is so god damned hard
so hard......
he found the note
when he came home to the empty house
he knew that this was coming
the first time he had seen her face
he walked right out the front door
in no particular direction
he had to find the reason why....
these things
always end this way
i am losing my mind
nothing seems right
i don't know who i am anymore
i am losing the fight
because i hate my life
i wish there was an easier way
to be in love
i am out of my mind
nothing seems right
i don't know who you are anymore
i am losing this fight
because i hate my life
and even though i' m leaving....
i am still in love with you
i am still in love with you
i am still in love with you
i am still in love with you
on the dining room table
she finally had the last word
the day that she went away
she left him a note
she hated confrontation
it was impossible to say to him
everything she had to say
i am losing my mind
nothing seems right
i do not know who i am anymore
i am losing the fight
i hate my life
i wish that it was easier
to be in love
she cries herself to sleep
on the floor of her apartment
she found herself a new place
about a half a mile away
she drinks herself to sleep
she gets lost inside the darkness
she is making up for lost time
every night and every day
i am losing my mind
nothing seems right
i do not know who i am anymore
i am losing the fight
because i hate my life
i wish that it was easier
to be in love....
you make me want to scream sometime.....

i am still in love with you
i am still in love with you
i am still in love with you

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.
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.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
I would have to agree wyht Audiluva, This is an awesome song. This cd is one of their best in years.
