This time you should know
Like the first time that
I saw you there alone
Like the first time that
I knew you were my own

The way you made me feel
Like I was something that
You couldn't live without
Like I was someone that
You couldn't be without

Something came in between us
Something made a change in you
What can I do?

So you made your decision
I guess it's you that I'll be missin'
I lie alone in bed just wishin'
That I had been the one
That I had been the one

This time you should know
The way you made me feel
So helpless and alone
Erase the memories
Of all we've ever known

Something came in between us
Something made us break in two
What can I do?

So you made your decision
I guess it's you that I'll be missin'
I lie alone in bed just wishin'
That I had been the one
That I had been the one

Now I think I'm goin' crazy
Now you're stuck inside my head
I don't ever wanna feel this way again

When you look in the mirror
Does it all seem clear to you?
Have I been used?

So you made your decision
It won't be me that you'll be missin'
I lie alone in bed just wishin'
That I had been the one
That I had been the one

So you made your decision
I guess it's you that I'll be missin'
I lie alone in bed just wishin'
That I had been the one
That I had been the one

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.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
