Maybe it could wait another day
For as it were I'm better off along without my feet
If laziness could be a middle name
Initial me so I could wander off and fall asleep
We've all recovered though still to stand
With no excuses for us to tell
So please allow sometime to pass
We've peeled our spirits into a hole
With no provisions left to share
Yet still our sleeves are waited down
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
So there's never reason for your doubt
The same is true and held I hope, at least for me
So suddenly they found another out
It's up to someone else to drag my ass along the street
We've all recovered though still to stand
With no excuses for us to tell
So please allow sometime to pass
We've peeled our spirits into a hole
With no provisions left to share
Yet still our sleeves are waited down
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
For as it were I'm better off along without my feet
If laziness could be a middle name
Initial me so I could wander off and fall asleep
We've all recovered though still to stand
With no excuses for us to tell
So please allow sometime to pass
We've peeled our spirits into a hole
With no provisions left to share
Yet still our sleeves are waited down
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
So there's never reason for your doubt
The same is true and held I hope, at least for me
So suddenly they found another out
It's up to someone else to drag my ass along the street
We've all recovered though still to stand
With no excuses for us to tell
So please allow sometime to pass
We've peeled our spirits into a hole
With no provisions left to share
Yet still our sleeves are waited down
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now
Wouldn't even believe your eyes, it's all your circus now

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.

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”

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.
You have to be kidding me, Umphrey's is one of my favorite bands! Half their songs aren't even here, and all their good ones don't have any comments....
Well, this is one of my favorite songs.
this song is definitely sweet. It's the song I direct people to listen to who have never heard of Umphrey's. Either this, or push the pig. But, what does this song mean? Maybe it's like these rock stars finally settled down and they've realized their girlfriends and/or wives are the awesome parts of their lives even though they all kind of dilly dallied and didn't propose or want to settle down. Now that they're in a serious relationship though, they can't realize why they didn't do it sooner and how it's so much better. Maybe also a little bit of amazement at how far they've come, as people, from college kids playing for fun to festival headliners and world renowned musicians. I don't know though. Definitely fun to listen to this shit during workouts.
I like barifkin's explanation better than mine, but I love Umphrey's so I just wanted to add another comment. I think it sounds like it's about procrastination, and how laziness and putting things off has torn his soul and motivation. Like with all of the time wasted, there is nothing left but regret and no excuses for that kind of behavior. That interpretation only really matches half of the lyrics though, because the other parts say how they have found a way out, and "it's all your circus now" which sound for sure like a good thing. However, it sounds like he just can't take his own advice, or feels powerless to overcome the laziness, so even though they found a way out, he needs to be dragged along. Like the way some people get really lazy when smoking up, and smoke away years of their lives, only to regret it later on.
