Sweep the dirty stairs,
The ones I waited on.
This is just for me,
I felt it watching her.

It happens too fast, to make sense of it,to make it last.
It happens too fast, to make sense of it, to make it last.

Where do you intend to go
With your dirty dress?
Lead my skeptic sight
To the table and the light.

It happened too fast, to make sense of it, to make it last.
It happened, too fast, to make sense of it, to make it last.

Not asking of me anything,
Saying nothing about what it means,
Without anybody telling me
How I should feel.

Lead my skeptic sight
To the table and the light.

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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
