This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.
See that face from across the room
and I can feel you're nothing
show your fear it's not hard to see
intentions pale, it's blinding
stop stop from place i've been
no good for the shape i'm in
i'm sold to the race you win
you want to take me out
stop stop
will you face off him
my space in the wickedy sin
no change for the place I'm in
but you change too
stop! stop!
I am all you need to know
and I am everywhere you go
no one can save you now
when it all comes around
and I'm everything you see
and I'm what you'll never be
no one can save you now
when it all comes around
show your face
and stare at me
and I can feel you clearing
showing up and preparing me
and you're the one I'm bury
stop stop
from place i've been
no good for the shape i'm in
i'm sold to the race you win
you want to take me out
stop stop
will you face off him
my space in the wickedy sin
no change for the place I'm
but you change too
stop! stop!
And I am all you need to know
and I'm everywhere you go
no one can save you now
when it all comes around
and I'm everything you see
and I'm what you'll never be
no one can save you now
when it all comes around
take you down
leave you fallen, faceless, hurt
and leave you down
fall, break you now
leave you fallen, faceless, hurt
and take you down
wanna take you down!
I am all you need to know
I am everywhere you go
no one can save you now
when it all comes around
I am everything you see
I am what you'll never be
no one can save you now
when it all comes around
and I can feel you're nothing
show your fear it's not hard to see
intentions pale, it's blinding
stop stop from place i've been
no good for the shape i'm in
i'm sold to the race you win
you want to take me out
stop stop
will you face off him
my space in the wickedy sin
no change for the place I'm in
but you change too
stop! stop!
I am all you need to know
and I am everywhere you go
no one can save you now
when it all comes around
and I'm everything you see
and I'm what you'll never be
no one can save you now
when it all comes around
show your face
and stare at me
and I can feel you clearing
showing up and preparing me
and you're the one I'm bury
stop stop
from place i've been
no good for the shape i'm in
i'm sold to the race you win
you want to take me out
stop stop
will you face off him
my space in the wickedy sin
no change for the place I'm
but you change too
stop! stop!
And I am all you need to know
and I'm everywhere you go
no one can save you now
when it all comes around
and I'm everything you see
and I'm what you'll never be
no one can save you now
when it all comes around
take you down
leave you fallen, faceless, hurt
and leave you down
fall, break you now
leave you fallen, faceless, hurt
and take you down
wanna take you down!
I am all you need to know
I am everywhere you go
no one can save you now
when it all comes around
I am everything you see
I am what you'll never be
no one can save you now
when it all comes around

Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
I can relate to this song. There is this one guy who I love more than anything but I'm not sure where things are going between us. I know he wants to be with someone because he told me, but yet I am right there and he won't fall my way. He acts a little like he likes me, but I don't know. I can't keep just waiting forever and ruin my life. But I think once I finally do find someone, I think he is going to look back a realize what he could have had!
