You didn't dye your hair and, oh, my hair went black
Now what you knew, you knew, you knew, you know what the fuck
Take all the way you get down I'll get them down
Couldn't thought, getting all the kryptonite all down
Sorry, the Volkswagen is a goddamn, goddamn pain
And he gets him anyway, what the fuck do you seeing
So what, hey, I'm going to, tonight I'm trying to lying one time
They had peared mine too when I threw you mine
Hey, I guess I leave right here, you help me out
What's all I'm trying to say I know you don't
Everyones' care, everyone, everyone, how the what the fuck you say
But I know what's going on who bought the other damn pair of jeans
One time, one time, one time, he gone he got another one
You don't care, I don't have you bathe down right in no fucking cup, one time
I can't, I can't, messed up, you took down me, start talking shit
I can't, I can't understand, you know what I mean
You got yourself a cool weekend, what time of week
Only one day, and one day, eh, you know, you know see it fit
Well I don't care, I'm getting off here, getting off with him
I get myself, I know I got myself a good pal
Well don't you know, what you knew, you knew goddamn well
And well you knew what, you don't want to play, but you'd guess that you could play
Same as when you knew, you knew nothing, now what do you have to say
And your on the way down, and I'll go down, your going to fucking trip
Well, Sam, my head will bend like hell, like nothing
Well doctor's say, you going to hold on by the fucking nuts, yeah
One time, two times I go do the craft, we're going to probably bring it
And we'll end up hearing downtown, and town, and drown, I'm trying to talk
And our friends are carefree
And you brutal us, brutal us, bring it down to your spleen
I don't care if you don't care, your shoes up in that shit
Son of God, Jesus Christ, he won't even do nothing
I'm the one most counted on, you take at the tail of the line, you scream
Close out now, always burning and I said to myself
Aaron right here, he got the gun to kill himself, he gone, I'm going to drink now
You take a look at him by yourself, thank you, Edwin
Edwin's the master of this shit, there's a master of fucking the TV master, all this shit
Edwin, well I got myself one thing, two things, three things in my mouth
Hey Sally, hey Buddy, hey burnt out
And you tie yourself to the counted on you still can't clear the line though
I kicked myself when I walked home I don't know why I . . . shit
Where the hell you go with there, hell, it's all the same
You pee on yourself, well you're going down, you stop to drink
Well I want, got two things, and don't pull my nine
Well if you are in the air and detect and I saw you left behind right?
One time you're going to get, so we can know it less
It's all in contact, two pal you waiting, then I'll get ready
And one spot up, one spot up, through your candled ground
Well I got myself what I call luck all night

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.

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.
