This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
The amount of pills I'm taking (the amount of pills I'm taking)
Counteracts the booze I'm drinking (counteracts the booze I'm drinking)
And this vanity I'm breaking (and this vanity I'm breaking)
Lets me live my life like this
And well I find it hard to stay
With the words you say
Oh baby let me in, oh baby let me in
Well I'll choose the life I've taken
Never mind the friends I'm making
And the beauty that I'm faking
Lets me live my life like this
And well I find it hard to stay
With the words you say
Oh baby let me in, oh baby let me in
And you can cry all you want to
I don't care how much you'll invest yourself in me
We're not working out, we're not working out
We're not working out (we're not working out)
And you can't touch my brother
And you can't keep my friends
And we're not working out and we're not working out
This time I mean it
Never mind the times I've seen it
Well I hope I'm not mistaken
By the news I heard from waking
And it's hard to say I'm shaken
By the choices that I make
And well I find it hard to stay
With the words you say
Oh baby let me in, oh baby let me in
Well I'll choose this life I've taken (choose this life I've taken)
Never mind the friends I'm making (friends I'm making)
And I get a little shaken (I get a little shaken)
Because I live my life like this
And well I find it hard to stay
With the words you say
Oh baby let me in, oh baby let me in
And you can cry all you want to
I don't care how much you'll invest yourself in me
We're not working out, we're not working out
And you can't keep my brother
And you won't fuck my friends
And we're not working out and we're not working out
This time I mean it
Never mind the times I've seen it
Never again, never oh oh oh, well never again
(You can cry all you want to)
Ne-Never, never, well never again
(I don't care how much you'll invest yourself in me)
Ne-Never, never
(You can cry all you want to
I don't care how much you'll invest yourself...)
Oh baby, let me, oh baby, oh baby, oh baby, let me in
Oh baby, let me in
I'm knocking, let me in
Oh baby, let me in
Oh baby, let me in
I'm knocking, let me in
Oh baby, let me in
Oh baby, let me in
Counteracts the booze I'm drinking (counteracts the booze I'm drinking)
And this vanity I'm breaking (and this vanity I'm breaking)
Lets me live my life like this
And well I find it hard to stay
With the words you say
Oh baby let me in, oh baby let me in
Well I'll choose the life I've taken
Never mind the friends I'm making
And the beauty that I'm faking
Lets me live my life like this
And well I find it hard to stay
With the words you say
Oh baby let me in, oh baby let me in
And you can cry all you want to
I don't care how much you'll invest yourself in me
We're not working out, we're not working out
We're not working out (we're not working out)
And you can't touch my brother
And you can't keep my friends
And we're not working out and we're not working out
This time I mean it
Never mind the times I've seen it
Well I hope I'm not mistaken
By the news I heard from waking
And it's hard to say I'm shaken
By the choices that I make
And well I find it hard to stay
With the words you say
Oh baby let me in, oh baby let me in
Well I'll choose this life I've taken (choose this life I've taken)
Never mind the friends I'm making (friends I'm making)
And I get a little shaken (I get a little shaken)
Because I live my life like this
And well I find it hard to stay
With the words you say
Oh baby let me in, oh baby let me in
And you can cry all you want to
I don't care how much you'll invest yourself in me
We're not working out, we're not working out
And you can't keep my brother
And you won't fuck my friends
And we're not working out and we're not working out
This time I mean it
Never mind the times I've seen it
Never again, never oh oh oh, well never again
(You can cry all you want to)
Ne-Never, never, well never again
(I don't care how much you'll invest yourself in me)
Ne-Never, never
(You can cry all you want to
I don't care how much you'll invest yourself...)
Oh baby, let me, oh baby, oh baby, oh baby, let me in
Oh baby, let me in
I'm knocking, let me in
Oh baby, let me in
Oh baby, let me in
I'm knocking, let me in
Oh baby, let me in
Oh baby, let me in

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.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.
I saw them with Thrice, The Used, and Story of the Year. Story of the Year was ok, they tired themselves out far too quick though, Chemical Romance were just how I expected them, so that's good. Thrice was more than I could possibly iimagine, almost live changing. And the Used....well, better than I thought, only due to the drummer thoughm yet that son of a bitch said he was going to puke, yet he didn't, I really wanted him too.
