Pretend there's nothing left to say
Pretend I'm wrong for wanting to stay
Pretend my heart is mending
It's only me pretending...
It's takes a smart one to know
But it takes a strong one to let go
It's time to see what's not in sight
So I can prove myself right
And now i'm staring back with tears that cloud my eyes
and if they clear away, I'll see your vacant disguise
How can we never seem to see
Just what we always wanted to be?
And next time you try to tell me what's true
I'll make sure I believe in you
I'll take my chances back this time
to prove that time will never be mine
When everything turns back to grey
I won't regret the things I say
Goodnight, I'll see you when I do
That's when you'll know I've looked into you
I see more than you'll ever know,
More than I'll ever show you
And now we face the future with our eyes shut tight
And if we open then, we'll see what was always right
And when I see you crying, that's when you'll see me dying
(I can't see what's inside of me
And one day when you see what's true
I'll make sure I believe in you
Why do you always seem to see
Just how it's never going to be?
And next time you try to tell me what's true
I'll make sure I hold onto..

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.
