So many people out there
So how did I get stuck here, with you?
Where's my sword to slay?
Where are my rules to obey?
Show me...
Her hair was styled with fear, her teeth were like veneer
And she really has no reason, no reason at all, to be lonely
I don't wanna play anymore, thank you.
Not here, not now, maybe never again.
It's hard when it hurts and you have to say it doesn't.
You don't have to say it doesn't
And it sucks when you find someone but they don't find you.
Yeah, it sucks when you find someone but they don't find you.
Why wont this feeling go away?

    My Interpretation

    Out of the girls out there why does he have to feel chemistry towards this girl who has no mutual feelings towards him. He is looking for some sort of rules, or guidelines to follow to get him out of this 'wanting' yet there are none. There are no rules in love. He then describes the girl and how she is lonely. She has no reason to be lonely because he cares for her. He is able to care for her and she just disregards it completely. He really wants to stop playing these foolish games with her where he has to prove his worthiness and try to catch her attention. He doesn't want to play them ever again. All of these feelings hurt so much and beg to be let out yet he has to put a mask on and pretend like nothing is wrong just to act normal. Yet inside he knows he is faking it, he knows he feelings depressed and terrible. Best line of the song- "Yeah, it sucks when you find someone but they don't find you." He found someone whom he truly cares for yet, she doesn't like him back. She doesn't have the same feelings. he knows it is not because she is a mean person, it is because it is. He wants to forget this feeling towards her, but it will never. Only time will take the feelings away

    My Interpretation

    Luke is talking about getting stuck with a girl that he likes but she does not like him back. He can't really express any feeling to her, which sucks even more. The feeling of liking her won't go away, even if he is somewhat rejected.

    General Comment

    This song is just too perfect to my current situation. I am writing a screenplay for this girl and I plan to make a film to show how much I do care for her and wish she had mutual feelings. Right now I'm in a pre-script treament form and on the first page after the Title I wrote down an excerot from this song:

    "...It sucks when you find someone but they don't find you. Why won't this feeling go AWAY."

    That Part speaks to me the most and I get kind of deoressed thinking about it.

    Thank you Luke Lalonde for showimg me that I am not alone in this compicated thing we call Love

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.

Silent Planet
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.

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.
