Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The sun will shine upon you
But not on all the others
You are sugar sweet, so fine I'd like to eat
Your apple's poison seed
Will be the end of me

In the darkest den
The coolest lion sends
A message to my head
It made me squirm, it said
You were born to make me die

You are the final word, you are the pound another
You are the cops that murder my support to love laws
You are the persona, you are the broken arrow
You are the hunt that shot into everything I do

Well and perfectly your soul will leave your body
Now that I'm involved with pistols at noon
And any moment soon you'll be so unhappy
Because you will finally know that
You were born to make me fight

You are the final word, you are the pound another
You are the cops that murder my support to love laws
You are the persona, you are the broken arrow
You are the hunt that shot into everything I do

We are the final word, we are the love another
We are the cops that follow your support to love laws
We are the personal and we are the straightened arrow
We are the hunt that lays it down for all the reason
Give me a reason

    I think its about a woman who s destined to kill him(not literally, hopefully) much like a poisoned apple grown a tree.

    Hmm.. To be honest a poisonous apple really reminds me of Snow White. I don't know whether the title has any relation to that, though.

    I'm not really sure what the song means, but I really like this song.

    this song is simply talking about how the woman who he is in love with is too dangerous for him and how even though he hates her a lot, he still loves her.

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

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.
