The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
"It was a dreadful fight but we were victorious once again. But the joy of victory was spoilt
by the conversation I had with Axandria afterwards. Although we both admitted to love each
other, we agreed to walk separated ways because we were too different for each other. It
nearly broke my heart, because my love still exists..."
Now you will see - sadness overwhelms me
Nothing more left to live or to be
Even when you're gone
You will live deep in me
My love still exists
And the wind tells your name
Even when you're gone
The distance is less far
My love still exists
Axandria
I'll miss you
I'll be with you
Forever
How shall I carry on with such a pain inside
Roaming under this wicked sky
Now you will leave - my love will always follow you
Believe me - I know that you do
Even when you're gone
You will live deep in me
My love still exists
And the wind tells your name
Even when you're gone
The distance is less far
My love still exists
Axandria
I'll miss you
I'll be with you
Forever

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.
