"Caught in thy net of shadows, what dreams hast thou to show?
Who treads the silent meadows, to worship thee below?"
Thee who wanders amongst the mortal, never see the light of day
Thee who watch the storm approaching, the darkness calls thy name

"Let the serpent tempt you to a sin, When the lowering sun dyes the crimson seas
And let the ravens lead you there, where no angels dare to tread or dream (sleep)..."

Thee who wanders amongst the mortal, never see the light of day
Thee who watch the storm approaching, the darkness calls thy name
Doth thou know of Majesty, of thine soul's nocternity
And velvet seas, that caress the distant shores?

Will they ever search for the truth
known by the great wise ones?
Will they ever find the truth
will they ever bleed the whores?

LACRIMAE MUNDI

"Whoever sheds the blood of a man by a man shall his blood be shed,
and vengeanced with the utter hatred..."

Nightmares haunt thy sleep at nights...
The laughter of chaos and scythe...
Why thee did against me?
None forbid, but thrusts to misery...

This means WAR!

...and the world shall cry forever...

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.

Amazing
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.
