This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Here's a glue guy, performance god
A makeshift shrine, a newly lain sod
Hardly even tryin', gives the nod
I sure hope I'm not the type to dwell
Hope I'm a fast healer, fast as hell
Heaven is a better place today because of this
But the world is just not the same
If and when you get into the end zone
Act like you've been there a thousand times before
Don't blame, don't say people lose people all the time anymore
A toonie to the busker and a husky 'keep it comin'' under my breath
But then said, ?Though, if you wouldn't mind
Less cryin' and more tryin', more tryin' and less cryin'?
I'm not the type to dwell
I'm a fast healer, fast as hell
Heaven is a better place today because of this
But the world is just not the same
Oh, if and, if and when you get into the end zone
Act like you've been there a thousand times before
Don't blame, don't say people lose people all the time anymore
Don't say people lose people all the time anymore
If and when you get into that end zone
Act like you've been there a thousand times before
Don't change but don't say people lose people all the time anymore
Ooh, it's just not the same because of this
Ooh, it's not the same
A makeshift shrine, a newly lain sod
Hardly even tryin', gives the nod
I sure hope I'm not the type to dwell
Hope I'm a fast healer, fast as hell
Heaven is a better place today because of this
But the world is just not the same
If and when you get into the end zone
Act like you've been there a thousand times before
Don't blame, don't say people lose people all the time anymore
A toonie to the busker and a husky 'keep it comin'' under my breath
But then said, ?Though, if you wouldn't mind
Less cryin' and more tryin', more tryin' and less cryin'?
I'm not the type to dwell
I'm a fast healer, fast as hell
Heaven is a better place today because of this
But the world is just not the same
Oh, if and, if and when you get into the end zone
Act like you've been there a thousand times before
Don't blame, don't say people lose people all the time anymore
Don't say people lose people all the time anymore
If and when you get into that end zone
Act like you've been there a thousand times before
Don't change but don't say people lose people all the time anymore
Ooh, it's just not the same because of this
Ooh, it's not the same

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.

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.
As a fan of the Hip and hockey, I have to comment though it's been years since anyone else has. Buffalo native here, but residing in Atlanta. Still a Sabres fan but was deeply saddened by this horrific tragedy. I will leave my opinions of Mr. Heatley out of this.
Anyhoo...hockeyfangirl wrote: "'If and when you get into that endzone' is obviously a hockey reference." Say what? Sounds like a football reference to me. In fact, it's borrowed from a quote attributed to Bear Bryant, the great coach of Alabama, among others. Seriously, I can't find any agreement on this. Nonetheless, I don't see how it could be a hockey reference. That's a stretch. Though, the Hip are never afraid to make those stretches.
Curiouser still is the line: "A toonie to the busker and a husky 'keep it comin' under my breath". I'd give a nickel to find out what the heck that means.
Actually, "end zone" is not just a football term. In hockey it refers to the area at either end of the rink between the goal line and the (closer) blue line. So it is clearly a hockey reference as most Hip sports references are.
@gebobs Yeah that is barely ever referred to as the endzone and even if it is technically the end zone no one aspires to make it there so in the context of the song it wouldn't make any sense that that was what he was referring to. It's definitely a football reference but it's been universally adopted to mean don't gloat about your accomplishments and just act like you know what it's like to succeed.
@gebobs, yes, elk4521, it is a football reference, it\'s a Vince Lombardi quote. I took in context of this song to mean having decorum when it comes to dealing with death, as he goes on to instruct us not to blame or to say people lose people all the time. Having grace when faced with grief of death, the inevitable end zone. Just like the beginning of the song which references a newly lain sod, def no pitch in hockey, but the sod is covering a grave, not a field of play.

Like, hey life, keep it coming, but better and less painful if you don\'t mind
