This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
One night to be confused
One night to speed up truth
We had a promise made
Four hands and then away
Both under influence
We had divine scent
To know what to say
Mind is a razor blade
To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
For me, no
One night of magic rush
The start a simple touch
One night to push and scream
And then relief
Ten days of perfect tunes
The colors red and blue
We had a promise made
We were in love
To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
For me, no
To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
And you, you knew the hands of the devil
And you, kept us awake with wolfs teeth
Sharing different heartbeats
In one night
To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
For me, no
To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
One night to speed up truth
We had a promise made
Four hands and then away
Both under influence
We had divine scent
To know what to say
Mind is a razor blade
To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
For me, no
One night of magic rush
The start a simple touch
One night to push and scream
And then relief
Ten days of perfect tunes
The colors red and blue
We had a promise made
We were in love
To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
For me, no
To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
And you, you knew the hands of the devil
And you, kept us awake with wolfs teeth
Sharing different heartbeats
In one night
To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
For me, no
To call for hands of above
To lean on
Wouldn't be good enough

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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
It's a beautiful song, haunting guitar and he has an oddity of a wonderful calm voice. As for meaning, i think it goes something like this.
"One night to be confused One night to speed up truth" In my opinion this is reference to the night hes spent with his cheating lover, hes confused why hes with her after shes hurt him, and hes confused why she did it. Speeding up the truth, maybe this means shes came clean to him about her affair. "We had a promise made" stressing the loving past they shared before she did this. (the use of the word 'had'- its in the past. it wont be retained. "Four hands and then away" again showing how it was just the two of them and now thats gone "away" as another person is involved (due to adultery). "Both under influence" influence of alcohol. he could be referring to his girlfriend and her accompanist having a drunken one night stand, or himself and his girlfriend getting back together the night they try and sort things out. "We had divine scent" divine is a word meaning to guess(divination), and scent can mean to suspect. All guessing and suspecting of his girlfriend cheating, i think this line means. "To know what to say" only makes sense if you refer the last line to this one. I think he means the words he said where his suspisions. "Mind is a razor blade" This could mean 2 things. 1) the mind is sharp, he has many accurate assumptions of his girlfriend cheating. 2) he finds it hard to think about thoughts. razorblade = pain. in his mind he thinks about images that hurt him. like a razor would hurt him. alternatively, he could mean both of those.
"To call for hands from above to lean on Would that be good enough for me?" hands from above, does he mean the hands of God? maybe hes just asking for comfort to help him through.
"One night of magic rush The start: a simple touch" description of himself reuniting with his girlfriend.? (sexual refernce) "One night to push and scream" their quarrels also in the night. "And then relief" the quarrels finally stop, he starts to look for a way forward to get over his girlfriend. "Ten days of perfect tunes The colors red and blue" after the split with his girl, he has time alone thinking. spending time listening to music. red and blue colour reference to the poem 'roses are red, violets are blue'. again thinking about his lost love. "We had a promise made We were in love" pretty self explanitary, that bit.
"And you You knew the hand of the devil" the metaphorical hand he was earlier talking about, the hand he was reaching out for was 'from above', but his girlfriend held the hand of the devil, she betrayed him. "And you Kept us awake with wolves teeth" how he cant sleep, its just pain to think that while she should be in bed with him, shes sharing her bed (and herself?) with someone else. "Sharing different heartbeats in one night" again refernece to adultery, sharing different love.
Alot of biblic reference i think. "10 days of perfect tunes" 10 commandments? (7th Commandment: do not commit adultery) "To call for hands from above to lean on" the hands of god? and... "You knew the hand of the devil"
i love your interpretation on this song. you have a unique way of looking at 'one night to push and scream'. alot of the posts on here think it is a sexual reference. i think your way of looking at it works well because it fits better with the following line..'and then relief' almost like relaxing after a storm.but of course it could mean both.<br /> originally my first thought was this was about a woman giving birth. (with the colours and the music and the pushing)<br /> thanks for helping understand this beautiful song.<br /> =]
This is how I saw it as well. I like this song, it is like a bitter sweet thing, one of those songs that makes you think back to a time in your own life. Good interpretation!
