All I’ve left of you
Is this slowly fading bruise
And it’s madness, yeah I know
But I hate to see it go

So I call you late at night
And we talk around our lives
And you asked when I’d be home
And you miss me don’t I know

And I knew it was crazy
But I said "Next Thursday maybe"

Here I go again
Walking down the street in New Orleans
Waiting for a call that’s never coming in
Praying for a cab to take me home
And the headlights get brighter
And here I go again

See, my head don’t get my heart
Yeah I understand that part
So that’s why I left it there
That ring I bought somewhere

And I knew, sure its crazy
I just thought you’d like it baby

Here I go again
Walking down the street in New Orleans
Waiting for a call that’s never coming in
Praying for a cab to take me home
And I bought it all
The ticket and the promises
It's all my fault
It's fillin' in my eyes with red
from wall to wall
Knowin' that you ain't in there at all
And the headlights (and the headlights)
Get brighter (get brighter)
And the night sky gets lighter
And here I go again

And I don't know what to do
What if forgiving me is forgetting you too?

Here I go again
Walking down the street in New Orleans
Waiting for a call that’s never coming in
Praying for a cab to take me home
And I bought it all
The ticket and promises
it’s all my fault
It's fillin' in my eyes with red
from wall to wall
Knowin' that you ain't in there at all
And the headlights (and the headlights)
Get brighter (get brighter)
And the night sky gets lighter
Oh, I'm out here on this wire
Here I go

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.

Holiday
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.

Amazing
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.
