When I'm lost, in the rain, in your eyes
I know I'll find the light to light my way

When I'm scared, losing ground, when my world is going crazy
You can turn it all around yes

And when I'm down you're there pushing me to the top
You're always there givin' me all you've got

For a shield from the storm, for a friend, for a love to keep me safe and warm, I turn to you
For the strength to be strong, for the will to carry on
For everything you do, for everything that's true I turn to you, yes

When I lose the will to win I just reach for you and I can reach the sky again
I can do anything, 'cause your love is so amazing
Cause your love inspires me and when I need a friend you're always on my side
Givin' me faith to get me through the night

For a shield (for a shield)
From the storm (from the storm)
For a friend, for a love to keep me safe and warm (for a love to keep me safe and warm)
I turn to you (I turn to you)
For the strength (for the strength)
To be strong for the will to carry on
For everything you do I turn to you
(Oh yeah oh)

For the arms to be my shelter through all the rain
For truth that will never change
For someone to lean on

For a heart I can rely on through anything
For the one who I can run to
Oh
(So do you oh yeah)

For a shield from the storm, for a friend, for a love to keep me safe and warm
(To keep me safe and warm, yeah)
I turn to you (I turn to you)
For the strength (for the strength yeah)
To be strong, for the will to carry on
For everything you do (everything you do)
For everything that's true
For everything you do
For everything that's true
I turn 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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
