This is the throne where hatred keeps.
What is sown is never reaped.
This is the blindness that you need.
This is the vein on which you feed.
Surrender - It's just one twist!
I will surrender - My aching wrist!
I can't remember - It's never enough!
I will surrender - It's never enough!
Oh my darling - One for all and all for one!
Give me reason - The quest for truth!
Give me something - Disobedient yet responsive!
To believe in - Out of darkness there will be light!
Close your eyes,
Close your eyes.
This is the dignity that you felt.
This is the gutter where you have knelt.
Oh my darling - It's a war with no winners!
Give me reason - When violence hits home!
Give me something - Ignorance is your religion!
To believe in - Take this spear and heal thyself!
Disobedience! - One too many lies!
Disobedience! - It's the greatest swindle!
Disobedience! - Everything falls into place!
Disobedience! - Take these words and feel thyself!
This is your wretched, heavin' high.
These are the shamed, the damned, the blamed.
I can smell the slowly spreadin' stain.
Oh, the burden of shame.
Oh my darling,
Give me reason,
Give me something,
To believe in.
This is your wretched, heavin' high.

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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Magical
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.
