It's a touch and the change that threw me off
Just another of those lines you bent to cross
It's safe to say that this night you're heading
Heading in the wrong direction

Well who's to blame for you being away?
You know that's nothing for you to say
I needed something to hide the pain

So what's your reason for leaving now?
You never cared much for this place anyhow
Oh foolish girl you know that the past will always catch you

So just take me home, 'cause I need to be alone
All these thoughts race through my head
All the awful things she did while I was gone

It was a look on his face that turned her on
How could this feel so right and go so wrong?
It's safe to say that you were not ready
To let me be your one and only

It's such a shame that you threw it away
Trust me, I think about it every day
Just wish there's some way to make her stay

Just another reason to leave this town
I never cared much for this place anyhow
Oh jealous boy you know that your problems never left you

So just take me home, 'cause I need to be alone
All these songs play in my head
All the awful things she said
You can just take me home, 'cause I'm feeling more alone
All these thoughts race through my head
All the awful things she did while I was gone

So grab your keys, we're leaving now
Take me away, our times run out

I've been stuck in your shoes before
So I know the worst is still in store
Don't be afraid to just want more
Than what lies, in front of me
I build this up to break you down
And smear your name across this town

Now as you dive into the sea
I'm glad to see the violent green
My only hope is that you drown
One last way to make me proud
I'll do just fine here on my own
You'll never have to live alone

Take me home, I'm feelin' so alone
All these thoughts race through my head
Of all that could have been
So just take me home, 'cause I need to be alone
All these songs play in my head
All the awful things she said
So just take me home, 'cause I'm feeling more alone
All these thoughts race through my head
All the awful things she did while I was gone
All these thoughts race through my head
All the awful things she did while I was gone
Take me home
All these thoughts race through my head
All the awful things she did while I was gone

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 Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
