In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
I need a woman oh so bad,
You ever get the feeling you've been had,
You pay your money you pay the price,
You take a chance and it feels so nice,
Later maybe you wonder why,
This little lady's gonna suck you dry
Bitch
You walk the streets as the darkness falls,
You try to pass but the red light calls,
When it's done and you've had your fun,
You gotta treat yourself like number one,
Maybe, even though she treats me bad,
She's not the only one I've ever had,
Bitch
I need to feel it baby can't you see,
I need a girl to set my venom free,
I'm going in can't you feel,
Feels so good now I've broke the seal,
I tell you babe I'm never satisfied,
ain't gonna die for those tears you cried,
Bitch
Your makin' love just like a young girl should,
You move me baby like no other could,
You give me love but I can see,
Your lovin' isn't only meant for me,
If it's a living what the hell,
I see you've only got your love to sell,
Bitch
You ever get the feeling you've been had,
You pay your money you pay the price,
You take a chance and it feels so nice,
Later maybe you wonder why,
This little lady's gonna suck you dry
Bitch
You walk the streets as the darkness falls,
You try to pass but the red light calls,
When it's done and you've had your fun,
You gotta treat yourself like number one,
Maybe, even though she treats me bad,
She's not the only one I've ever had,
Bitch
I need to feel it baby can't you see,
I need a girl to set my venom free,
I'm going in can't you feel,
Feels so good now I've broke the seal,
I tell you babe I'm never satisfied,
ain't gonna die for those tears you cried,
Bitch
Your makin' love just like a young girl should,
You move me baby like no other could,
You give me love but I can see,
Your lovin' isn't only meant for me,
If it's a living what the hell,
I see you've only got your love to sell,
Bitch

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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”
Punchline

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

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.
intro riff ripped from "symptom of the Universe" still a kickass song tho!
In my opinion some of the worst Venom songs, definitely the weakest on the first 2 total classic Venom LPs.
It's about going to the whorehouse and the refrain is the utterly complex: "bitch". It talks about the late night pleasures, about sucking and penetration. Not very plastic and at a certain point the lyrics say:
" I tell you babe I'm never satisfied, ain't gonna die for those tears you cried,"
Is this rape? He rapes the whore? Nice, what can I say...
Sure not a Venom classic, this one.
