You're all I've known
All I adore,
You take all my scars and break my heart
And I ...

Can never go back, never go back, never go back,
Never look back, never... look... back... AGAIN
This is the last time you try to justify for all the reasons
You'd sell me out

Your all my heart
My flesh and blood
Nights so lonely without you around me

Never go back, never go back, never go back
Never look back, never... look... back.. AGAIN
This is the last time you try to
Justify for all the reasons you'd sell me out

Never go back, never go back, never go back
Never look back, never look back.. AGAIN
This is the last time you try to ease my mind
For all the reasons you'd sell me out

I will be you garden
Plant your bones
I will be your sovereign kingdom.

This is the last time you try to justify
For all the reasons you'd sell me out

This is the last time you try to ease my mind
For all the reasons you'd sell me out
You'd sell me out
You'd sell me out
You sold out

    Dude this song is fucking awesome. No one's commented on it =(

    Shit, don't I understand this one plenty. Being used, but there's nothing he can do to change the way he feels. He misses her, but doesn't want to go back to the hellhole she puts him in, even though he's everything to her. Sad, I tell you. Sad.

    This is the first song I heard by BS, and it quickly became one of my favorite songs. I like the first version better(the non-album version) I like the guitar work more. Fuckin sick song, obviously about betrayal.

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.
