This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Make you into dark
Straight into your heart
Sorry all you are
I don't really care
Well, I know you are...
Robots, robots
Brainwashed babies, blood from a leech
Spoken rabies
Spastic, plastic, battery acid
Yank on the leash
Draggin' you backwards
Oh, my closed eyes
Never see it comin'
There's nothing you can say
You can't wish me away
Every masochist gets a turn
The sadistic twist you'll never learn
Battery acid, battery acid
Battery acid in my veins
Unidentified remains
"Yes" button broke to automatic
Irrational dosage of furious static erasing what you are
You were
(Jealous)
To feel the way you do
(To mention)
A lie, then call it true
(Feel for)
Nothing except for yourself and nobody else
Hanging over the edge
There's nothing you can say
You can't wish me away
Every masochist gets a turn
The sadistic twist you'll never learn
In battery acid, battery acid, hey
Straight into your heart
Sorry all you are
I don't really care
Well, I know you are...
Robots, robots
Brainwashed babies, blood from a leech
Spoken rabies
Spastic, plastic, battery acid
Yank on the leash
Draggin' you backwards
Oh, my closed eyes
Never see it comin'
There's nothing you can say
You can't wish me away
Every masochist gets a turn
The sadistic twist you'll never learn
Battery acid, battery acid
Battery acid in my veins
Unidentified remains
"Yes" button broke to automatic
Irrational dosage of furious static erasing what you are
You were
(Jealous)
To feel the way you do
(To mention)
A lie, then call it true
(Feel for)
Nothing except for yourself and nobody else
Hanging over the edge
There's nothing you can say
You can't wish me away
Every masochist gets a turn
The sadistic twist you'll never learn
In battery acid, battery acid, hey

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.
Cajun Girl

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
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.
Vaseline has a good interpretation.
I like the 3rd verse: Battery Acid in my viens? Unidentified remains The YES button broke to automatic Irrational doseage of furious static erasing what You are We are
Taking this drug leaves you in a state where you don't know who you are anymore (unidentified remains).
You know longer choose to take the drug. Instead the drug takes you (The YES button broke to automatic).
Not surprisingly, another drug song. Yet this one seems almost like a anti-drug song.
Josh Homme is the spectator here; realising (probably out of experience) how the lives of drug-abusers look like; only looking forward to their next dose, not caring for the rest of the world and forgetting what it is to be really alive. They remain to be robots, brainwashed babies. It leaves them in a world of shit, and at the moment they realise were they are, it’s already to late. Homme doesn’t care, they didn’t want see it (closed eyes never see it coming) and he knows it’s to late to have pity for them. It’s the sadistic twist they never learn; everyone can get his high, you’re nothing special, you’re all robots waiting for the next dose. Running on this battery will only leave you with acid burns…
Awesome song. Well done Queens
Awesome song. Well done Queens
erm, is it just me, or is there missing a piece of the song?

There is no thing you can say, You can't wish me away, Every masochist, gets a turn, The sadistic twist, you'll never learn, In battery acid.
Battery acid in my veins - unidentified remains, The yes button broke to automatic, Irrational doseage of furious static erasing what You are,We are.

There is no thing you can say, You can't wish me away Every masochist, gets a turn, The sadistic twist, you'll never learn, In battery acid
the last part he (n Trent) are singing about definitions I guess, I checked it many times
vaseline, I think you nailed it.
While I believe this is probably the worst song on Era Vulgaris (don't get me wrong, the CD's great!) it does get catchy and tolerable after a few listens. That's what I think is the hardest part about enjoying the music on the album. You have to get used to it. I don't think everyone truly understands that. Listen to it, full-length, two or three times and then see if you like it.
call me weird, but I didn't need multiple listens to like any of these songs. In fact, I think this song in particular was one of my favorites from the beginning.
This song does my head in! I try so hard to follow the beat but when "Robots! Robots!" and "Battery acid in my veins" comes in I just get lost. Damn clever song to pull that off. Y'feel me?
