An even strobe a pulse of flashing
Hatelights of synthetic souls mass-produced
Hammered into shape a sign of times dreams
Turn into systems a new way a new breed
Implanted in our minds

Here i am in the hand of a sterile hate the
New control i can not wake I'm not a sleep

New intelligence arise in emptied bodies
Turgid flesh tested through eternal spastic
Fits through not known codes mother
Machine in genocide now scorn a dying race

Evolution in reverse now it's time for me
Changing what am i to be contorted an eternity defeated

Programmed to appease you we're symbols of
Perfection humanoids ruined by your laws:
Destroy erase improve lesson first: sub-
Mission we're docile servant dogs our
Leashes are your limbs computed deep within

Remoted minds controlled our thoughts no
More doubts the new way is here disgorged
Another thousands fakes that obey to a
Circuit skein to vacuum

Mechanical thoughts i now conceive no
Longer me always to see inanity millions
To be units like me eternally human
Patterns copied dissected distorted
Completed to fit the machine the nerve
Fibres give in to cords to the unknown

See me be me same contents same machine

The currency of ours no more flesh and bone
We are to be unaware of what we have been before

Evolution in reverse now it's time for me
Changing what am i to be contorted an
Eternity defeated by the new machine

    Probably Meshuggah's heaviest song...

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.

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”

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.
