I sit and wonder of your pause
What makes you so sure
Our sins are not the start
Of something wholly divine?

I don't like the sound of this
No news is bad news
And all is quiet
And all your looks
Give no betrayal to what you shield or hide
Why the walls have not protected
Anything or anyone
The way I will protect your burning heart
I know you're careful
'Cause I've been burned before
And I know how it makes you careful
And I know your symptoms
Are complicated from holding against the impulse

But if you're alone
Are you lonely?
Well you just don't have to be lonely
Anymore

I don't like the looks of this, without you
There's no truth
But all my doubt and all my trust
Is no betrayal to what I feel inside
Why the walls have not protected
Anything or anyone
The way I will defend your beating heart

I know you're careful
'Cause I've been burned before
And I know how that makes you careful
And I know your symptoms
Are complicated from holding against the impulse

But if you're alone
Are you lonely?
Well you just don't have to be lonely
Anymore

I sit and wonder of your thoughts
What makes you so sure
Our sins are not the start
Of something wholly divine

I don't like the sound of this
No news is bad news

I don't like the sound of this
No news is bad news

I don't like the sound of this
No news is bad news

I don't like the sound of this
No news is bad news

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Punchline
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.

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.
