Time on your side that will never end
The most beautiful thing you can ever spend
But you work in a shirt with your name tag on it
Drifting apart like a plate tectonic

It don't matter to me
'Cause all I wanted to be
Was a million miles from here
Somewhere more familiar

Too much time spent dragging the past up
I didn't see you not looking when I messed up
Settling down in your early twenties
Sucked more blood than a backstreet dentist

It don't matter to me
'Cause all I wanted to be
Is a million miles from here
Somewhere more familiar

And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home

And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home

Great rulers make for greater glory
The only thing growing is our history
Knock me down, I'll get right back up again
I'll come back stronger than a powered up Pac-Man

It don't matter to me
'Cause all I wanted to be
Was a million miles from here
Somewhere more familiar

And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home

And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home

And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home

And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And oh my God, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from

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.
