A man is crying, it takes me in a certain place
which you don't often find
I see your family walking
always thinking of being somewhere else in time

So fall face down in a rut
I can't seem to get out of
Please wake me
please give me some of it back;
the feelings I've had

Sometimes I wish I could be strong like you, it doesn't matter
Each time I wake, I'm somehow feeling the truth I can't handle

Let's get this party started
I'm sick of being you
You make make me feel insane
which I'll give to you
Let's get this party started
You make make me feel insane
I want to be the one
to make myself sane

Time is ticking
it makes me feel content
with what I have inside
Constant paranoia surrounds me;
everyone one I see is out to get me

So fall face down in a rut
I can't seem to get out of
Please wake me
please give me some of it back;
the feelings I've had

Sometimes I wish I could be strong like you, it doesn't matter
Each time I wake, I'm somehow feeling the truth I can't handle

Let's get this party started
I'm sick of being you
You make make me feel insane
which I'll give to you
Let's get this party started
You make make me feel insane
I want to be the one
to make myself sane

You make make me feel insane
You make make me feel insane

Let's get (You make make me feel insane)
this party (You make make me feel insane)
Started (You make make me feel insane)
Started... (You make make me feel insane)

Sometimes I wish I could be strong like you, it doesn't matter
Each time I wake, I'm somehow feeling the truth I can't handle

Let's get this party started
I'm sick of being you
You make make me feel insane
which I'll give to you
Let's get this party started
You make make me feel insane
I want to be the one
to make myself sane

    it seems to me like hes singing about a mental pain. maybe schitzophrenia. hes saying how hes caught in a rut he cant get out of, caught inside himself, only trusting himself, because he sees others as out to hurt him. the chorus about being strong is probarbly reffering to someone else he sees. he has these problems and cant seem to put up with them, but sees everyone else living their lives, and as far as he knows, putting up with the same thing as him, but dealing with it, so he wishes he was as strong as them to be able to cope with how he feels. thats just how i see it though

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.

Mountain Song
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."

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
