This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You were my air when I couldn't breathe
But you always knew what you meant to me
(Haaa-ah-ah)
You were my strength when I was down
And you made me humble when I wouldn't bow
I held on to your promise that you'd be around
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
Where were you when I was alright
Tell me, you knew I was alright
You, left me thinking I'd be alright
Won't you come back to me
Oh
It's crazy but I'm falling apart
It's crazy how your leaving me scarred
It's crazy girl wherever you are
You stole, my heart
It's crazy but I'm going insane
Feeling lost confused and ashamed
It's crazy, hope your feeling my pain
You stole, my heart
(Stolen)
Just like the moments
(Stolen)
You never were there
(Stolen)
You took away my heart
I was feeling lost in my own world
Neglecting your needs only once girl
If only we could try again once more
Oh (oh)
Now It's the same sad story that we all know
How lovers make mistakes watch it all blow
Now I don't wanna be the one to let it all go
You know where were you when I was alright
Tell me, you knew I was alright
You, left me thinking I'd be alright
Won't you come back to me
Oh
(Stolen)
Just like the moments
(Stolen)
You never were there
(Stolen)
You took away my heart
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
No man can live without blood running through his veins
(Through his veins)
And it's hard to remember the summer now here is rain
I don't know how much longer that I can wait
It's a feeling between love and hate
Oh-whoa-whoa
(Stolen)
Just like the moments
(Stolen)
You never were there
(Stolen)
Girl, you took away my heart
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
You were my air when I couldn't breathe
But you always knew what you meant to me
(Haaa-ah-ah)
You were my strength when I was down
And you made me humble when I wouldn't bow
I held on to your promise that you'd be around
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
Where were you when I was alright
Tell me, you knew I was alright
You, left me thinking I'd be alright
Won't you come back to me
Oh
It's crazy but I'm falling apart
It's crazy how your leaving me scarred
It's crazy girl wherever you are
You stole, my heart
It's crazy but I'm going insane
Feeling lost confused and ashamed
It's crazy, hope your feeling my pain
You stole, my heart
(Stolen)
Just like the moments
(Stolen)
You never were there
(Stolen)
You took away my heart
I was feeling lost in my own world
Neglecting your needs only once girl
If only we could try again once more
Oh (oh)
Now It's the same sad story that we all know
How lovers make mistakes watch it all blow
Now I don't wanna be the one to let it all go
You know where were you when I was alright
Tell me, you knew I was alright
You, left me thinking I'd be alright
Won't you come back to me
Oh
(Stolen)
Just like the moments
(Stolen)
You never were there
(Stolen)
You took away my heart
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
No man can live without blood running through his veins
(Through his veins)
And it's hard to remember the summer now here is rain
I don't know how much longer that I can wait
It's a feeling between love and hate
Oh-whoa-whoa
(Stolen)
Just like the moments
(Stolen)
You never were there
(Stolen)
Girl, you took away my heart
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
