He's the kind of guy who's always passin' by
And never has time to spend
And he'll take you for a spin
And won't look within to find out who you are
And he numbs himself with weed, he's from the coldest breed
Who judge by what they see
And I thought he was smart enough to know that the girl on his arm will
Never calm his storms

Watch out! He'll charm you.
Smoother than the L.A. weather, that's how he holds himself together
He's colder than the winter, I wrap my coat around to better
Counteract his charm attack that leaves me hungry well,
I'm no savior, but I tried to save you
Ooh.. my.. love
It's raging high inside

And he has his minions with no real opinions
‘cause they only walk on glass
And your lies become the truth
And give me proof that you really care
And with your gorgeous friend you have the world so dim
Believe an and everything you say

Watch out! He'll charm you.
Smoother than the L.A. weather, that's how he holds himself together
He's colder than the winter, I wrap my coat around to better
Counteract his charm attack that leaves me hungry well,
I'm no savior, but I tried to save you
Ooh.. my.. love
It's raging high inside

Smoother than the L.A. weather, that's how he holds himself together
He's colder than the winter, I wrap my coat around to better
Counteract his charm attack that leaves me hungry well,
I'm no savior, but I tried to save you

Ooh... ooh
Ooh... ooh

And he stamps out every emotion and
He dampens each and every explosion
He dampens each and every explosion
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

    It's unfortunate that I know too many girls that can relate to this song.

    they lyrics are wrong in this song by the way... it's "Wrap my coat around to bear the cataract of his charm attack" pretty good lyrics there

    Aw c'mon, every girl has to try saving some toxic beautiful badmannered sexy fuckwit. You have to have a broken heart to have a fixed one.

    is it I wrap my coat around "to bear the cataract of his charm attack" or "to better counteract his charm attack?" I'm confused.

    correct me if I'm wrong but I think the lyrics are wrong... It says here "With your gorgeous friend you have the world so dim" but I'm pretty sure it's " with your gorgeous grin you have the world sucked in"

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.
