You marked
The back of my hand
You drew a heart
And some tiny dots

And a spiral
Which reminded me
Of the Milky Way
And it made me think

If our galaxy
And Andromeda
Felt like you and me
Were like the way we are

They couldn't feel as vast
And if they join
At six billion lives per second
And they danced around

Linking spiral arms
As they'd spin
Spin through infinity
They couldn't feel as vast
As I feel now

Galactic tectonic shifts
In my chest and behind my eyes
And yet the smallest vibration
Like the touch of your pen
Makes my hair makes
My hair stand on end

You marked
The back of my hand
You drew a heart
And some tiny dots
And a spiral
Which together spell
I want you in electricity

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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
