The House Of Boo

Horse the Band

Lights out-- shadows bloom
crawling hands slide to me--across a midnight room
i fear my blankets may not be the best
defenses that i could muster
still the cold beyond is like lizard claw
crawling from the hereafter
silent things scream from silent dreams BANG
still the room is still but i'm filled with a cold
I'M TERRIFIED!!!!
I'M TERRIFIED!!!!
I'M TERRIFIED!!!!
I'M TERRIFIED!!!!

pause cold i'm alone
i pick up the phone
but i fear
that it's been disconnected
i don't even check
because i hear a breath
and i know
this is the end of me
i'm going to hell

A silent scream it whispers free from me
my mouth is dry my eyes are wide
i'm statuesque- petrified
the room is BLACK!!!!
my mind is RED
i'm alone in the room
but theres someone in my head
HUNGRY HANDS HAUNT ME IN THE MORROW OF THE NIGHT
I'M THINKING SHAKING BEGGING for a precious nite-light because
I'M TERRIFIED!!!!
I'M TERRIFIED!!!!
I'M TERRIFIED!!!!
I'M TERRIFIED!!!!

what should i do when the nightmares come true
the lampshades have faces and the closets are cruel
gasp and TREMBLE- weep and DROOL

dawns glorious light-- a stale recourse
in the empty cup i'm still seeing stars
well thats all right
it's like i'm already there
seven dawns UP seven moons DOWN
i'll get to sleep some night soon
thats all right
it's like i'm already there

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.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
