Simon Says

You let your guard down once again
I took advantage, broke the skin
I watched it fall apart
I witnessed it all decay

You'll beg to be a part of it
You'll cry when you can't handle it
You'll make the same mistake
They all made one day

I know
Bring that to me
Shut your mouth

You wear the scars and bruises well
When will the cuts and scratches heal?
When does the price you pay to play outweigh the play?
Before your finger points to me

Remember "Who inspired me"
And shove your fucking borrowed selfish identity
You think it's all just a game
Try not to lose to his face

But have you ever seen what it can do?
You'll fill it up till it bursts
It starves the sick but still hurts
You think that your life means something to me?

I know
Bring that to me
Shut your mouth

Your life means nothing at all to me
I'll break your innocent smile at the seam
You think there is never a price to pay
You've already made the same mistake

This is my life
This is my life
So here we are

You though you'd enjoy all the fame
But now we're laughing
You'll never be, no, you'll never be the same
You think it's all just a game

Try not to lose to his face
But have you ever seen what it can do?
You'll fill it up till it bursts
It starves the sick but still hurts
You think that your life means something?

I know
Bring that to me
Fuck you all

Your life means nothing at all to me
I'll break your innocent smile at the seam
You think there is never a price to pay
You've already made the mistake they've all made

Your life means, nothing
I'll break your, smile
You think there is, never
You've already, made the mistake
Made the mistake they've all made

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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
