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.
I caught their sparkles from the runways.
Such a fool for the amazon.
Nothing's wrong but it's just not right.
The three of us in the naked light.
No chance for psychotic solutions.
Lost in this three-way dimension.
Imagine you as me and I'll tell you.
Just what I'm thinking.
That is feels like you.
Feels like I.
Feels like we do.
And it feels like, feels like I.
Feels like we do.
And everyone's daze is on.
Look what you've done.
You give yourself away for nothing.
Feels like you.
Feels like I.
Feels like we do.
Look what you've done.
And give it all away for nothing.
Feels like you.
Give it all away for nothing.
Feels like I.
Feels like we do.
When will you escape Dramatica.
Gifts of pleasure you received.
Everything you wanted from me.
Chemical abduction restricted our vision.
We were on auto drive.
Don't blame the platform for your fall.
We were chasing obsession.
Imagine you as me and I'll tell you.
Just what was on my mind that night.
‘Cause it feels like you.
Feels like I.
Feels like we do.
‘Cause it feels like you.
Feels like I.
Feels like we do.
Look what you've done.
Give it all away for nothing.
What's on your mind.
Such a fool for the amazon.
Nothing's wrong but it's just not right.
The three of us in the naked light.
No chance for psychotic solutions.
Lost in this three-way dimension.
Imagine you as me and I'll tell you.
Just what I'm thinking.
That is feels like you.
Feels like I.
Feels like we do.
And it feels like, feels like I.
Feels like we do.
And everyone's daze is on.
Look what you've done.
You give yourself away for nothing.
Feels like you.
Feels like I.
Feels like we do.
Look what you've done.
And give it all away for nothing.
Feels like you.
Give it all away for nothing.
Feels like I.
Feels like we do.
When will you escape Dramatica.
Gifts of pleasure you received.
Everything you wanted from me.
Chemical abduction restricted our vision.
We were on auto drive.
Don't blame the platform for your fall.
We were chasing obsession.
Imagine you as me and I'll tell you.
Just what was on my mind that night.
‘Cause it feels like you.
Feels like I.
Feels like we do.
‘Cause it feels like you.
Feels like I.
Feels like we do.
Look what you've done.
Give it all away for nothing.
What's on your mind.

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”

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.
