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'm in a clique but I want out
It's not the same as when I was punched
In the old days there was enough
The card games and ease with the bitter salt of blood
I was in but I want out
My mother's love is choking me
I'm sick of words that hang above my head
What about the kid? It's time the kid got free
Be a part of the love club
Everything will glow for you
You'll get punched for the love club
For the love club
I joined the club and it's all on
There are fights for being my best friend
And the girls get their claws out
There's something about hanging out with the wicked kids
Take the pill make it too ill
The other day I forgot my old address
I'm sitting pretty on the throne
There's nothing more I want
Except to be alone
Be a part of the love club
Everything will glow for you
You'll get punched for the love club
For the love club
Your clothes are soaked and you don't know where to go
So drop your chin and take yourself back home
And roll out your maps and papers
Find out your hiding places again
The only problem that I got with the club
Is how you're severed from the people who watched you grow up
When you're a member go on your great adventure again
They will be waiting at the end
Be a part of the love club
Everything will glow for you
You'll get punched for the love club
For the love club
It's not the same as when I was punched
In the old days there was enough
The card games and ease with the bitter salt of blood
I was in but I want out
My mother's love is choking me
I'm sick of words that hang above my head
What about the kid? It's time the kid got free
Be a part of the love club
Everything will glow for you
You'll get punched for the love club
For the love club
I joined the club and it's all on
There are fights for being my best friend
And the girls get their claws out
There's something about hanging out with the wicked kids
Take the pill make it too ill
The other day I forgot my old address
I'm sitting pretty on the throne
There's nothing more I want
Except to be alone
Be a part of the love club
Everything will glow for you
You'll get punched for the love club
For the love club
Your clothes are soaked and you don't know where to go
So drop your chin and take yourself back home
And roll out your maps and papers
Find out your hiding places again
The only problem that I got with the club
Is how you're severed from the people who watched you grow up
When you're a member go on your great adventure again
They will be waiting at the end
Be a part of the love club
Everything will glow for you
You'll get punched for the love club
For the love club

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.
Holiday
Bee Gees
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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
This song is not about her newfound celebrity status, because she wrote and released the EP about a year ago. Royals is on the same EP. She was internationally recognized about 9 months later, and didn't reveal who she even was until April/May.
She is very candid. All of her songs are about things in her life, which is extremely normal. She has stated this song is about the popular crowd in school. That's what she's referring to about getting "severed from those who watch you grow up."
There aren't a lot of hidden meanings in her songs, and she's pretty frank about that. She is a "what you see is what you get" kind of girl who wants to write about things that are real, and things that she connects to as a 16 year-old. For her, that's school, her social life, things she's reading, other artists and songs she listens to.
At Habber dash. You might not see this bus Yes it is totally about her joining the love club which is the music industry. Just because she wrote it before doesn't mean that fame wasn't going to happen for her. The lyrics "My mother's love is choking me." is like a cry out. Her song is like a application for employment or acceptance into the Hollywood society.<br /> Fame is at a cost in Hollywood believe it or not. If you don't know that there are sinister kinds of workings, magic and pagan worship behind the music scene than you need to open your eyes and do some research. Her very own EP artwork is a huge statement she is making. It is a serpent snake on her shoulders, her eye is brused as she talks about being pumched. This is a serious representation of the devil on her shoulders. The animal is a sacrifice and the promise is riches & fame like the jewelry & rings on her fingers. Oh my God I'm just seeing her album cover now & it is so crazy obvious. Her bruise represents torture meaning Monarch Programming aka MKultra. Don't tell me she doesn't look like she's under a spell or hypnosis in her music videos. Think of it this way, if the devil came to her shoulders and said that he'd give her all of the earths glory & riches if only she would acknowledge him and worship. Now check this out, Matthew 4:1-11 in the Bible talks about Satan tempting Jesus saying the same things, but Jesus knew who God was and His power is greater.<br /> I know this when I see it because her Love Club artwork is also a refference to Eve and the serpent in the Garden of Eden, when he tempts her and is successful. Knowing that go read the lyrics again, it makes perfect scary sense. Responses anyone?
