This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I am only real at places I can not be
My right hand rebels and chops off the left
(the) hairy ape walks into stage
He tries to stay erect
The one who never slept
In order to be perfect
The arrogance of their hands
The joy of the regret
Soulsick - good at things I never did
Soulsick but skindeep, tense, frantic but relieved
Soulsick but skindeep, tense, frantic but believed
I am only real at places I can not be
Dead liquid vigilant
Implanted into my sleep
The one who never slept
The one who stays erect
The one who is profound
The one I do reject
Soulsick but skindeep, tense, frantic but relieved
Soulsick but skindeep, tense, frantic but believed
Soulsick - good at things I never did
I am only real at places I can not be
Soulsick but skindeep
I'm not real, just believed in
Soulsick but skindeep
Not real, just believe in
My right hand rebels and chops off the left
(the) hairy ape walks into stage
He tries to stay erect
The one who never slept
In order to be perfect
The arrogance of their hands
The joy of the regret
Soulsick - good at things I never did
Soulsick but skindeep, tense, frantic but relieved
Soulsick but skindeep, tense, frantic but believed
I am only real at places I can not be
Dead liquid vigilant
Implanted into my sleep
The one who never slept
The one who stays erect
The one who is profound
The one I do reject
Soulsick but skindeep, tense, frantic but relieved
Soulsick but skindeep, tense, frantic but believed
Soulsick - good at things I never did
I am only real at places I can not be
Soulsick but skindeep
I'm not real, just believed in
Soulsick but skindeep
Not real, just believe in

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”
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
To me this seems obvious, the teller is hurt inside, but doesn't let it show, thus "soulsick but skindeep"
"the one who never slept in order to be perfected the arrogance of their hands the joy of the regret"
He's spent his whole life perfecting himself, bbut he gets no real responce for his good will from the people, thus "arrogance of their hands", the joy of the regret is what it feels like to let go of the uncredited goodwill..
"The one who never slept The one who stays erect The one who is perfect The one I do reject"
This is the one he rejects, the uncredited perfection, the one that wasn't worth the effort..
"I'm only real at places I cannot be" there are groups of people who seem more used to dealing with the dark sides of the psyche, but he doesn't dare to be real there, they are too strong personalities, instead he's real with the popular people who always show that delicious shock when he tells he likes the tears and what not..
