Hate is nothing new
Murderers watching every step
Ignorance - oblivious to all the evidence
Repent - for all that were innocent
Forget - so we all can rest

Hey it's the end of time
We all will see it our lifetime
We all will die......Violently

It's painted in the sky
We all can see it
but ignore it...& live our lives

The fear of dying
it finds us
no matter where we hide ourselves
Hide - some place in hell
In spite of living
The dead men
Know where we can hide away
Far away

Hey it's the end of time
We all will see it our lifetime
We all will die......Violently

It's painted in the sky
We all can see it
but ignore it...& live our lives

We all enjoy the blood
It calms the rage within
Ingest deceit to cope

We never wanted this
We never saw the risk
We never wanted this

If we could only see the past the shit
and learn the truth
maybe someone could adapt
and show us how to change things
We invented the way to terrify en masse
and we all wonder why
when someone wants to kill us

Hey it's the end of time
We all will see it our lifetime
We all will die......Violently

It's painted in the sky
We all can see it
but ignore it...& live our lives

Hate is nothing new
Murderers watching every step
Ignorance - oblivious to all the evidence
Repent - for all that were innocent
Forget - so we all can rest

    Song Meaning

    I think this song it totally about 9/11. Not the event itself, but the aftermath globally. I think it's a reference to the fact that before 9/11 Americans were so nonchalant and thought everything was good, but when it went down, so shocked that people out there actually hated us. The evidence was right there, but everyone chose to "ignore it and live our lives."

    "We invented the way to terrify en masse" is basically saying that our country has caused so much destruction around the world.

    "And we all wonder why when someone wants to kill us" is talking about how Americans all don't understand why there are people around the world (mainly al-Qaeda) hate us.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
