The sound of frozen grass
That summer died so fast
Red red stains on glass

You said that you would wait
You blew my mind away
We had eternity to waste

Through silent city nights
The streets were paved with red light
You led me like a blind

And the future held a gun
We've come a long way just to run
Like the distance from the sun

Nights are getting longer
Feelings growing stronger
Please don't make me break it
Oh how can you make me
Holding on and waiting
Holding on to nothing
I don't want to wake up
No don't make me wake up
I just want to sleep and dream about the dreams we had
All the drugs in the world won't take me to your promise land

All the lovers from the past
I feel them everywhere
I'm always in their prayers

You said that true love waits
You swept me off my faith
On the snowy moonlit streets

I've been down this road before
Laying shaking on the floor
Like memories of war

To the sound of breaking glass
My heart is beating fast
Red red stains on glass

Nights are getting longer
Feelings growing stronger
Please don't make me break it
Oh how can you make me
Holding on and waiting
Holding on to nothing
I don't want to wake up
No don't make me wake up
I just want to sleep and dream about the dreams we had
And all the drugs in the world won't take me to your promise land

All the time I was lost I was holding my heart locked up inside a cage
All the time I was lost I was cold and dead
All the time I was lost I was holding my heart locked up inside a cage
All the time I was lost I was cold and dead

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.
