Like a serpent in the sand
Coiled up to strike you when your back is turned
He's an evil man
Wicked since the day that he was born
When the morning comes
I'll meet him in the street and try to gun him down
He took your life away
What a dark bitter day
I held her in my arms and I swore
I'd even up the score
The sun is in my eyes
Sweat is on my face and I can hardly stand
Fear is in my heart
Telling me to turn and run away
A killer all his life
He looms before me like a demon dark and cold
But I made you a vow
And I won't break it now
I'll die here if that's what's in store
Or even up the score
Face to face we stand in silence now
Not one whisper in the crowd
Like in a dream I watch his hand float down
I hear the shots ring out he's lying dead upon the ground
He took your life away
What a dark bitter day
I held her in my arms and I swore
I'd even up the score
Even up the score
Coiled up to strike you when your back is turned
He's an evil man
Wicked since the day that he was born
When the morning comes
I'll meet him in the street and try to gun him down
He took your life away
What a dark bitter day
I held her in my arms and I swore
I'd even up the score
The sun is in my eyes
Sweat is on my face and I can hardly stand
Fear is in my heart
Telling me to turn and run away
A killer all his life
He looms before me like a demon dark and cold
But I made you a vow
And I won't break it now
I'll die here if that's what's in store
Or even up the score
Face to face we stand in silence now
Not one whisper in the crowd
Like in a dream I watch his hand float down
I hear the shots ring out he's lying dead upon the ground
He took your life away
What a dark bitter day
I held her in my arms and I swore
I'd even up the score
Even up the score

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.

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”

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.
