Now I’m not afraid to do the Lords work,
You say vengeance is his, but Imma do it first.
I’m gonna handle my business in the name of the law.

Now if he made you cry, oh, I gotta know,
If he’s not ready to die, he best prepare for it.
My judgement’s divine, I'll tell you who you can call,
You can call.

You better call the police, call the coroner,
Call up your priest, have him warn ya.
Walk in no peace when I find that fool
Who did that to you, yeah,
Who did that to you, my baby,
Who did that to you,
Gotta find that fool who did that to you.

Now I don’t take pleasure in a man’s pain,
But my wrath will come down like the cold rain.
And there won’t be no shelter, no place you can go.
It's time to put your hands up, time for surrender,
I’m a vigilante, my law’s defender,
You’re a wanted man, here everybody knows.

You better call the police, call the coroner,
Call up your priest, have him warn ya.
Won't be no peace when I find that fool
Who did that to you, yeah,
Who did that to you, my baby,
Who did that to you,
Gotta find that fool who did that to you.

Now he’ll keep on running, but I’m closing near,
I'll hunt him down, take ability,
If you see me coming near, who you gonna call?

You better call the police, call the coroner,
Call up your priest, have him warn ya.
Won't be no peace when I find that fool
You better call the doctor, call the lawyer,
I chase ‘em all the way to California,
Get my best trying to find that fool
Who did that to you

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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Blue
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.
