All that you've taken
has become easy to give away
Your lies are forsaken
you cannot give anything away....

Like a wounded frustration
you're beating your chest like an open wound
Another sensation
you can't give what you don't have away...

It's hard to remember
the words on the page have begun to fade
The sense of you lingers
as morning turns night into another day...

What's broke can be mended
it's easy to say but it's hard to do
And I'm too defensive ?
Just try walking one day in my shoes...

I don't know what to do
I can't tell anyone
There's a pain in my chest
and it hurts like hell
I don't know what to say
I can't tell anyone
Change premonitions it just won't go away...

I don't know what to do
I can't tell anyone
There's a pain in my chest
and it hurts like hell
I don't know what to say
I can't tell anyone
Change premonitions it just won't go away...

No it just won't go away...
No it just won't go away...

Change premonition
Change premonition
Change premonitions
It just won't go away...

All that you've taken
has become easy to give away
Your lies are forsaken
you cannot give anything away...

Like a wounded frustration
you're beating your chest like an open wound
Another sensation
just try walking one day in my shoes....

I don't know what to do
I can't tell anyone
There's a pain in my chest
and it hurts like hell
I don't know what to say
I can't tell anyone
Change premonitions it just won't go away...

I don't know what to do
I can't tell anyone
There's a pain in my chest
and it hurts like hell
I don't know what to say
I can't tell anyone
Change premonitions it just won't go away

    Damn I'm good ! Only took me 10 minutes to transcribe the lyrics to this song (tho I have listened to it a couple dozen times over the last 6 mths), and this is the first site on the Interwebz the lyrics to this song were posted...I'd been looking for the lyrics for months, couldn't find them, and the other night said "fuck it, I'll transcribe & post them myself"...

    So I did :-)

    The song is off the album "Six to Midnight" (released late 2009), which is a real cracker...If you like the Grinners and you haven't heard the album yet, get it ! You won't be sorry :-)

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.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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.
