I'VE BEEN BREATHING AND STEALING AIR
I THOUGHT NO ONE WOULD NOTICE BUT I'M HERE
NOW I'M STUCK OUT IN THE COLD IF YOU WOULD HAVE THOUGHT TO KNOW
WHY ARE YOU STILL LISTENING TO ME
NOW I'M THE ONE ALONE

WHY ARE YOU HOLDING ONTO SOMETHING YOU'RE FAKING
GET HOLD OF SOMETHING REAL AND YOU KEEP IT
WHY ARE YOU HOLDING ONTO SOMETHING YOU'RE FAKING
GET HOLD OF SOMETHING REAL AND YOU KEEP IT
YOU KEEP IT CLOSE

BREATHING AND STEALING AIR
I THOUGHT NO ONE WOULD NOTICE
NOW I'M HERE AND WE'RE STUCK OUT IN THE COLD
THEY SAID THAT YOU'LL ALWAYS KNOW
WHY AM I STILL LISTENING TO YOU NOW YOU'RE THE ONE ALONE

WHY ARE HOLDING ONTO SOMETHING YOU'RE FAKING
GET HOLD OF SOMETHING REAL AND YOU KEEP IT
WHY ARE HOLDING ONTO SOMETHING YOU'RE FAKING
GET HOLD OF SOMETHING REAL AND YOU KEEP IT
YOU KEEP IT CLOSE

MY LUNGS ARE BURNING BUT I FEEL SO COLD
I'M HOLDING ONTO NOTHING BUT YOU'RE STILL
YOU'RE STILL SO CLOSE

HOLD ON MY GIRL STAY CLOSE TO THEM
THE ONES WHO BRING YOU HOPE HAVE FAITH IN SOMETHING SO REAL
THAT NO ONE HERE BELIEVES HAVE FAITH IN SOMETHING
CHANGING WHAT WE'VE NEVER SEEN

WHY ARE HOLDING ONTO SOMETHING YOU'RE FAKING
GET HOLD OF SOMETHING REAL AND YOU KEEP IT
WHY ARE HOLDING ONTO SOMETHING YOU'RE FAKING
GET HOLD OF SOMETHING REAL AND YOU KEEP IT
YOU KEEP IT CLOSE

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.

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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
