Every time me look inna yuh face, you make my world a brighter place

Always and forever baby girl this love is true (I've been searching)

Almost givin' up, never thought I would find (ohh)
Seen many roses die on di vine
But a hidden treasure in you I man find, yeah

Love is what you giving me throughout di years
Every time you need me, I will be there my dear, I swear

Love inna your eyes me nuh see no tears

Every time you need me, I will be there my dear

On di magic carpet we will ride
Venus, Jupiter to di other side
Fi we togetherness, nuh need no guide
There is nothing to be shamed, nothing fi go hide, no, no
A whole new world awaits
Brighter than di pearly gates where love is as strong as fate
And life is about to give and to take

Joy inna your eyes me nuh see no tears
Love is what you giving me throughout di years
Every time you need me, I will be there my dear, I swear

Love inna your eyes me nuh see no tears
Joy is what you giving me throughout di years
Every time you need me, I will be there my dear, oh-ohh

Like a volcano this 'ya true love is shaking, yeah
In tender caring we are partaking
Woman me feel seh big things inna di making, yeah
Intoxication of a certain kind
I will admit that you suit my mind, yeah
Palpitation of another kind
Don't fast forward, baby just rewind, yeah

Joy inna your eyes me nuh see no tears
Love is what you giving me throughout di years
Every time you need me, I will be there my dear, I swear

Love inna your eyes me nuh see no tears
Joy is what you giving me throughout di years
Every time you need me, I will be there my dear, I swear

    This is definitely one of the best songs of '05. It's so full of love it's almost unbearable, but I love,love,love it.

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.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
