Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.
(Hello)
When eyes are red
We can't talk for a while
Without our sweet dumb things we say
you don't want me anyway
You don't want me anyway
so what
Why should i stay?
So goodbye to you and your life
Your new best friends
your confidence
And i'll be here when you get home
Sitting half way
Away from no where
praying for lips to touch
Holding myself
For a second
Just to catch you smile
On this side
So goodbye to you and your lies
(Two months, so many weeks)
Your new best friends
Your confidence
(turn my hours into days)
And i'll be here when you get home
(when you get home)
So goodbye to yuo and your lies
(two months so many weeks)
Your new best friends
Your confidence
(turn my hours into days)
And i'll be here when you get home
(When you get home)
(I can't feel the same without you any more)
It's just like you said
It would be
(separation)
I can't feel the same
I can't feel this way
I can't feel the same without you anymore
(separation) Without you anymore
(separation) Without you anymore
When eyes are red
We can't talk for a while
Without our sweet dumb things we say
you don't want me anyway
You don't want me anyway
so what
Why should i stay?
So goodbye to you and your life
Your new best friends
your confidence
And i'll be here when you get home
Sitting half way
Away from no where
praying for lips to touch
Holding myself
For a second
Just to catch you smile
On this side
So goodbye to you and your lies
(Two months, so many weeks)
Your new best friends
Your confidence
(turn my hours into days)
And i'll be here when you get home
(when you get home)
So goodbye to yuo and your lies
(two months so many weeks)
Your new best friends
Your confidence
(turn my hours into days)
And i'll be here when you get home
(When you get home)
(I can't feel the same without you any more)
It's just like you said
It would be
(separation)
I can't feel the same
I can't feel this way
I can't feel the same without you anymore
(separation) Without you anymore
(separation) Without you anymore

Word Alive, The
Word Alive, The
This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone).
And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.
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 always remember listening to this when my long distance relationship with my boyfriend was ending. although it was mutual, it was like we just couldn't feel the same about each other anymore. the phone call would make sense as that was our main means of communication, and also how we ended it. we both went long distance because of uni, and he had this new life and new friends and new confidence, and i just wasn't a part of that. definitely hits a nerve, especially as it was "just like i said it would be".
