This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Pull it out, turn it up, what's your favorite song?
That's mine, I've been crying to it since I was young
I know there's someone out there feeling just like I feel
I know they're waiting up, I know they're waiting to heal
And I've been holding my breath
Are you holding your breath
For too many years to count?
Too many years to count
And we waited for the sirens that never come
And we only write by the moon
Every word handwritten
And to ease the loss of youth
And how many years I've missed you
Pages plead forgiveness
Every word handwritten
Let it out, let me in, take a hold of my hand
There's nothing like another soul that's been cut up the same
And did you want to drive without a word in between?
I can understand, you need a minute to breathe
And to sew up the seams after all this defeat
All this defeat
And we waited for the sirens that never come
And we only write by the moon
Every word handwritten
And to ease the loss of youth
And the many, many years I've missed you
Pages plead forgiveness
Every word handwritten
Here in the dark, I cherish the moonlight
I'm in love with the way you're in love with the night
And it travels from heart to limb to pen
And we waited for the sirens that never come
And we only write by the moon
Every word handwritten
Every word handwritten
And with this pen, I thee wed
From my heart to your distress
Every word handwritten
That's mine, I've been crying to it since I was young
I know there's someone out there feeling just like I feel
I know they're waiting up, I know they're waiting to heal
And I've been holding my breath
Are you holding your breath
For too many years to count?
Too many years to count
And we waited for the sirens that never come
And we only write by the moon
Every word handwritten
And to ease the loss of youth
And how many years I've missed you
Pages plead forgiveness
Every word handwritten
Let it out, let me in, take a hold of my hand
There's nothing like another soul that's been cut up the same
And did you want to drive without a word in between?
I can understand, you need a minute to breathe
And to sew up the seams after all this defeat
All this defeat
And we waited for the sirens that never come
And we only write by the moon
Every word handwritten
And to ease the loss of youth
And the many, many years I've missed you
Pages plead forgiveness
Every word handwritten
Here in the dark, I cherish the moonlight
I'm in love with the way you're in love with the night
And it travels from heart to limb to pen
And we waited for the sirens that never come
And we only write by the moon
Every word handwritten
Every word handwritten
And with this pen, I thee wed
From my heart to your distress
Every word handwritten

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.
Cajun Girl

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
To me it seems like this song is about looking for love. He knows there's someone out there just like him (feeling the same pain, similar life experiences, etc.,)...a soul mate.
VERSE 1:
The first two lines are like a "let's compare scars" sort of thing. Music means a lot to him and sharing his favourite (and obviously emotional) song is like sharing something really deep with this other person.
The rest of the first chorus is about how he knows that perfect other person is out there, and how long he's been looking/waiting for them.
CHORUS:
"Sirens that never come"...sirens as in those on emergency vehicles(not literally). Hearing sirens would mean someone/something is coming to help him. This basically means he's waiting for someone to come rescue him...but of course that's not how life works.
"we only write by the moon"...nighttime is when your mind comes to life and things start to eat away at you (mistakes, his past, etc.,). Writing about all this in songs, poetry, etc., provides an outlet for everything.
VERSE 2:
He's found this other person and he wants them to open up to him. There's no one better to talk about something with than someone who's been through the same pain and/or knows what you're feeling. Now that they've let it all out they can start to move on/heal.
I'm sure I only scratched the surface, but that's how I understand this song. It's a fucking amazing song BTW.
Sirens, perfect women... at the end of the song is the departure from waiting for the ideal or old love in "a formal way" : "And with this pen, I thee wed<br /> From my heart to your distress"
