Dark things

Johnny Hollow

I don't want to breathe
I don't want to move
I don't want to leave here

See what I am
See what I know
See what I see

I chew the tongue
Who whispered the fortune
"There's nothing left but a twisted devotion"...

Liquid diamonds roll down my skin
And the wind whispers around me
Dark place...
A sweetness that I've never known
Hits me like a storm in the ocean
Dark face...
Dark love...

I'll take you
Like a stormy ocean
It's not enough
I NEED MORE

Oh wicked thoughts
From where did you come?
Darks things breathe their heated sighs

I kiss the cheek
And eat the mouth
And taste the tongue that never lies

Don't want to leave
Don't want to move on
To love and lust in
A hateful distortion...

It's unsaid
Some things are better left unsaid

Liquid diamonds roll down my skin
And the wind whispers around me
Dark place...
A sweetness that I've never known
Hits me like a stormy ocean
With this dark face I'll give you...

And I'll give you
These motions of emotion..

And I'll take you
Like a stormy ocean...

And I'll have you
With this twisted devotion...

AND I'LL HAVE YOU

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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

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.
