The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
'Cause I'm heated, heated, heated
I'm heated, please stop it
I'm heated, heated
He-he-he-heated, I'm heated
'Cause I'm heated, heated, heated
(I'm heated, please stop it)
'Cause I'm heated, heated, heated
(I'm heated, please stop it)
'Cause I'm heated
Go get the broom now sweep it up
Pull up on the scene with the gangster lean
Bitch you in the major league, major league
Money ain't a thing to me
Don't complain to me
How she gettin' next me
Pull up in the scene with the gangster lean
Bitch, shawty got things for me
I got my sandals, no socks
I ain't payin' for the box
I can't sleep around
I don't know where you found
Ass fat, gotta walk around her
All my life I done built it from the ground
Surround sound
Swimmin' with the sharks shoulda drowned
She try to smoke my whole pound
Had to hit the Dogg Pound
Like wassup
I heard you put a needle through the condom
Tried to rob 'em
'Cause I'm heated, heated, heated
I'm heated, heated, heated
He-he-he-heated, I'm heated
(Heated, heated, heated, I'm heated, please stop it)
I'm heated
(Heated, heated, heated, I'm heated, please stop it)
'Cause I'm heated
(Heated, heated, heated, I'm heated, please stop it)

(Heated, heated, heated, I'm heated, please stop it)
Go get the broom now sweep it up
MC with the gangster plan
Bitch you gotta make the bed
Bitch you might take the stand
Actin' like you ain't ate the gram
Man make the money, the money never make the man
Fall back, I'm cooler than a fan
I came up with a master plan
With nothin' but sweat inside my hand
Brp, stick up, ha-haha, stick up
I ain't trust a nigga
I fucked her through the zipper
Fuck police, try to hit me with a ticket
Heard my man hit her raw so I ain't wanna lick her
Got a Coach bag but you ain't no player
Take another pill bitch, stay up
All she wanna do is smoke
Bitch want blood, heard she fuckin' with a loc
Hello, ballin' like Melo
From the ghetto, Lamborghini yellow
What's up
I know where I come from, I know where I'm goin'
And I can keep on floatin'
I think she stole cash in my pocket
I can't knock it
Told me to take her to the tropics
(Got me eatin' biscotti)
'Cause I'm heated, heated, heated
I'm heated, heated, heated
He-he-he-heated, I'm heated
(Heated, heated, heated, I'm heated, please stop it)
I'm heated
(Heated, heated, heated, I'm heated, please stop it)

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.

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.
No Surprises

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
