its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Simple words we never knew,
The power behind what they put us through,
Now it's all begun, what it takes to make it real.
We're standing on the edge of this,
When our soul is gone, what will we miss?
We lost what it takes to really, really feel.
Better days behind us now,
We all need someone to tell us how
To save the state of where we are,
Its keeps demanding more and more and more.
Who will save us?
This can't go on, without the meaning in the rhyming.
Can you save, can you save us?
I can't go on out of rhythm with our time.
We hold this truth self evident,
The lies we used to represent
Who we are, because it was never meant to be.
And all the songs we used to sing, used to tell us everything.
Now were left with, all were left is memories.
But the better days behind us now.
We all need someone to tell us how
To save this state of where we are,
It keeps demanding more and more and more.
Who will save us?
This can't go on, without the meaning in the rhyming.
Can you save, can you save us?
I can't go on out of rhythm with our time.
Say the words, give it all the time you need.
Let it out, you'll say anything.
Say the words and make them count,
Say the words without a doubt.
Give us truth and nothing more,
Leave us wanting more and more.
Who will save us?
This can't go on, without the meaning in the rhyming.
Can you save, can you save us?
I can't go on, we're out of rhythm with our timing.
Can you save, can you save us?
I can't go on, without the meaning in the rhyming.
Can you save, you say you'll save us.
I can't go on, were out of rhythm with our time.
The power behind what they put us through,
Now it's all begun, what it takes to make it real.
We're standing on the edge of this,
When our soul is gone, what will we miss?
We lost what it takes to really, really feel.
Better days behind us now,
We all need someone to tell us how
To save the state of where we are,
Its keeps demanding more and more and more.
Who will save us?
This can't go on, without the meaning in the rhyming.
Can you save, can you save us?
I can't go on out of rhythm with our time.
We hold this truth self evident,
The lies we used to represent
Who we are, because it was never meant to be.
And all the songs we used to sing, used to tell us everything.
Now were left with, all were left is memories.
But the better days behind us now.
We all need someone to tell us how
To save this state of where we are,

Can you save, you say you'll save us.
I can't go on, were out of rhythm with our time.

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

The way this song speaks to me🥺🥺when I sing it I feel like I relate
Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
i don't like the fact that cartel is so mainstream, but whatevs because it really is good music/lyrics.
does anyone have the lyrics for the longer version, the one that's not acoustic? i think it's pretty much the same but the first verse is definately different. :D
