Can I? Ok

I'm missing your bed
I never sleep
Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak
And this bottle of beast is taking me home

I'm cuddling close to blankets and sheets
But you're not alone, and you're not discreet
Make sure I know who's taking you home

I'm reading your note over again
There's not a word that I comprehend
Except when you signed it
"I will love you always and forever"

As for now I'm gonna hear the saddest songs
And sit alone and wonder
How you're making out
And as for me, I wish that I was anywhere with anyone
Making out

I'm missing your laugh
How did it break?
And when did your eyes begin to look fake?
I hope you're as happy as you're pretending

I'm cuddling close to blankets and sheets
And I am alone
In my defeat I wish I knew you were safely at home

I'm missing your bed
I never sleep
Avoiding the spots where we'd have speak
And this bottle of beast is taking me home

Well, as for now I'm gonna hear the saddest songs
And sit alone and wonder
How you're making out
And as for me, I wish that I was anywhere with anyone
Making out

Your hair, it's everywhere
Screaming infidelities
And taking its wear

Your hair, it's everywhere
Screaming infidelities
And taking its wear

Your hair, it's everywhere
Screaming infidelities
And taking its wear

Your hair, it's everywhere
Screaming infidelities
And taking its wear

    This song is about moving on. It seems Chris just got done with a painful relationship that forced him away from the girl he really cares about. He can't sleep at night without her beside him. He rolls around, and he thinks about how she's moving on, and he isn't. He's being nostalgic with his relationship, and he finds many things to remind him. Her hair that's everywhere, well... she's got hair that's everywhere. He finds strands of her locks on the pillowcases and throughout the place, and every one he finds reminds him of this girl, and how she's off with some other guy right now. They're screaming infidelities. He thinks she's just doing it to get over him, that she's not happy, and that she's not enjoying herself. Well, I know one of them isn't enjoying themselves. Poor Chris here is heartbroken, but he'll get better in time.

    now i recently got into a debate with some friends of mine about what the line "your hair is everywhere" means. since the first time i heard the song i never really questioned the meaning...that he finds her hair around his place and on his stuff and it breaks his little emo heart with each strand...they all thought i was retarded. :( but it makes much more sense then shes sleeping around doesnt it? or maybe im just retarded.........

    Her hair is screaming her infidelity to him...I honestly think that this is about a girl breaking up with him...the line about reading your note...it's like all she left was a note telling him it's over, and she signed it love you always and forever. He finds her hair everywhere (b/c girls lose like 100 strands of hair a day or something psycho like that) and they're painful little reminders of her leaving...maybe she was unfaithful to him...who knows..all I know is this is a rather depressing song...but I love it!

    chris is missing a lost love and trying to escape the pain by avoiding everything. even though he can't cuz her "hair is everywhere" everything reminds of her. he can't stop thinking about her, and every song he hears makes him sad thinking about her. he knows she isn't as happy as she seems but he also knows shes just trying to get over them.

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.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
