In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
I can hear the word of mouth
Though it is low or good frequency
If it hopes, your heart will hear
it hopes so frankly
Come back to this holy place
All are waiting that you come back
Your distress is showing in your face
You don't need to hold on to me
If it's asleep
The perfect wave
It can never come back again
I want to listen by feeling
I like it
Never mind
It is a smoldering wave motion
Ready now
In the deep mountains of the mist
Hold me now
Look for good
Then, keep it gently
Good action is returned to itself
Let's say it's good
If you go this place will remain a foundation
A tiny rainbow shines inside you
Then many people look up at it
I face you with an ardent wish
Let's make it, and make it real
It is a smoldering wave of motion
Ready now
in the deep mountain of the mist
Hold me now
It is a smoldering wave of motion
Let me tell you why you didn't know this before
ready now
In the deep mountains of the mist
Let me go once again
Hold me now
Everything goes away
Though it is low or good frequency
If it hopes, your heart will hear
it hopes so frankly
Come back to this holy place
All are waiting that you come back
Your distress is showing in your face
You don't need to hold on to me
If it's asleep
The perfect wave
It can never come back again
I want to listen by feeling
I like it
Never mind
It is a smoldering wave motion
Ready now
In the deep mountains of the mist
Hold me now
Look for good
Then, keep it gently
Good action is returned to itself
Let's say it's good
If you go this place will remain a foundation
A tiny rainbow shines inside you
Then many people look up at it
I face you with an ardent wish
Let's make it, and make it real
It is a smoldering wave of motion
Ready now
in the deep mountain of the mist
Hold me now
It is a smoldering wave of motion
Let me tell you why you didn't know this before
ready now
In the deep mountains of the mist
Let me go once again
Hold me now
Everything goes away

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.

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.
