This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I thought I could keep my hands on it but I guess
I thought I could keep my heart in it but I guess
I might be wrong again
I knew it was over from the moment you said those words
I knew it was over from the day you cracked the ice
I wish I was wrong again
And I'll feel it in the morning
When it comes and stings like a sand filled towel snap
And I'll feel it for too long
When I'm missing my other half.
I'm waiting, hands pressed to the glass,
I'm waiting, with my head in my hands oh
I'm waiting, hands tied up behind my back well
I'm waiting, there's nothing you've said so this must be...
And I can't keep much hope in tomorrow,
I can't place my faith in your snap decisions.
And I can't feel like I'm alright with what you've done,
Because if it was my way I would've done it differently
I thought I could protect myself from those words but I guess
I thought I could save us both from this failing mess but I guess
I might be wrong again
I knew I couldn't say anything to you to change your mind
I knew I couldn't speak so I just stayed quiet and how
I wish I was wrong again
And I'll feel it even today,
When it comes around and sucks me down again
And I'll feel it for far too long
Until I get back my other half.
I'm waiting, hands pressed up against the glass and
I'm still waiting, with my head buried in my hands and
I'm waiting, hands tied up behind my back and I
I'm waiting, you've said too much
Well I haven't said a word about it and
I'm gone, gone, gone
And I can't say you shouldn't have expected me
To be more than you ever needed
And I can't say that your happy ending
Was more than just simple bullshit
It was nice while it lasted,
But you should be ashamed.
I thought I could keep my heart in it but I guess
I might be wrong again
I knew it was over from the moment you said those words
I knew it was over from the day you cracked the ice
I wish I was wrong again
And I'll feel it in the morning
When it comes and stings like a sand filled towel snap
And I'll feel it for too long
When I'm missing my other half.
I'm waiting, hands pressed to the glass,
I'm waiting, with my head in my hands oh
I'm waiting, hands tied up behind my back well
I'm waiting, there's nothing you've said so this must be...
And I can't keep much hope in tomorrow,
I can't place my faith in your snap decisions.
And I can't feel like I'm alright with what you've done,
Because if it was my way I would've done it differently
I thought I could protect myself from those words but I guess
I thought I could save us both from this failing mess but I guess
I might be wrong again
I knew I couldn't say anything to you to change your mind
I knew I couldn't speak so I just stayed quiet and how
I wish I was wrong again
And I'll feel it even today,
When it comes around and sucks me down again
And I'll feel it for far too long
Until I get back my other half.
I'm waiting, hands pressed up against the glass and
I'm still waiting, with my head buried in my hands and
I'm waiting, hands tied up behind my back and I
I'm waiting, you've said too much
Well I haven't said a word about it and
I'm gone, gone, gone
And I can't say you shouldn't have expected me
To be more than you ever needed
And I can't say that your happy ending
Was more than just simple bullshit
It was nice while it lasted,
But you should be ashamed.

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.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
