This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
This feels insane
The less you know
Now is worth more than anything
You will engage and breathe it
Toxic
The burn
Show me where the progress exists
Without the protest
Hide behind the faint lines
Built beside the same lines
Even though it's not in your view
You're a part of a bigger chain
Gaping holes worn through weeping walls
It's right in front of you
We're holding the blade
This feels insane
Wealth before our own worth
Programmed to obey
We are the slaves who object in silence
The herd
Even though it's not in your view
You're a part of a bigger chain
Gaping holes worn through weeping walls
It's right in front of you
We're holding the blade
Feed me now the cure
Even though it's not in your view
You're a part of a bigger chain
Gaping holes worn through weeping walls
It's right in front of you
Even thought it's not in your view
You're a link in a bigger chain
Gaping holes through weeping walls
It's right in front of you
The path they gave you is worn
By the countless enslaved
Confused alone
Hopelessly gazing through that hole
They're fed their only light
The less you know
Now is worth more than anything
You will engage and breathe it
Toxic
The burn
Show me where the progress exists
Without the protest
Hide behind the faint lines
Built beside the same lines
Even though it's not in your view
You're a part of a bigger chain
Gaping holes worn through weeping walls
It's right in front of you
We're holding the blade
This feels insane
Wealth before our own worth
Programmed to obey
We are the slaves who object in silence
The herd
Even though it's not in your view
You're a part of a bigger chain
Gaping holes worn through weeping walls
It's right in front of you
We're holding the blade
Feed me now the cure
Even though it's not in your view
You're a part of a bigger chain
Gaping holes worn through weeping walls
It's right in front of you
Even thought it's not in your view
You're a link in a bigger chain
Gaping holes through weeping walls
It's right in front of you
The path they gave you is worn
By the countless enslaved
Confused alone
Hopelessly gazing through that hole
They're fed their only light

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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
I love how both their albums are based around similar themes. Corruption. Conforming. Global political issues.
The last stanza resonates with me particularly: "The path they gave you is worn by the countless enslaved, confused and alone Hopelessly gazing through that hole they're fed their only light"
Kim has stated that the album is dark (most especially this song) because he feels we are inadvertently responsible for the things happening on TV, he connects our apathy with what is happening in the world.
I can see that point of view very clearly in this song having read that.
"Show me where the progress exists Without the protest"
People get fired up about certain issues but do they actually DO anything about them? No. We all turn a blind eye. We all think it's somebody else's problem to solve. Nobody takes responsibility.
"Programmed to obey We are the slaves who object in silence The herd"
We follow the crowd. 'Object in silence' - how true that is! Kim, you're a genius.
