This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
A lost sense of direction
Nobody knows my name
Confidence, correction
I don't know how to play that game
A straight line is quicker
A straight line would make me fast
I've burned my nose enough to know
That straight lines never last
Swallow your soul, drink from this life
As you choke on your pride
We all look elsewhere
We all look elsewhere
It's safer inside doors
Nobody has to flee
A broken vessel passed the rocks and out to sea
Waiting, wanting, mad with purpose
Now we come to talk to one
Who has the answers to how
Swallow your soul, drink from this life
As you choke on your pride
Don't waste your time if you've got it
The tides are turning now
You are not alone
They gave you their worst and you bought it
The lie has been exposed
You are not alone
Like winter that comes quick
In early September
The rain clouds that washed me
Are what I remember
The stones that I threw piled high like a mountain
Which I had to climb before I reach the fountain
If life a riddle then riddle me this
The blood tasted sweet as it passed by my lips
Don't, don't waste your time
Don't, don't waste your time
Don't waste your time
Don't waste your time if you've got it
The tides are turning now
You're not alone
Liar, liar
They gave you their worst and you bought it
The lie has been exposed
You are not alone
Nobody knows my name
Confidence, correction
I don't know how to play that game
A straight line is quicker
A straight line would make me fast
I've burned my nose enough to know
That straight lines never last
Swallow your soul, drink from this life
As you choke on your pride
We all look elsewhere
We all look elsewhere
It's safer inside doors
Nobody has to flee
A broken vessel passed the rocks and out to sea
Waiting, wanting, mad with purpose
Now we come to talk to one
Who has the answers to how
Swallow your soul, drink from this life
As you choke on your pride
Don't waste your time if you've got it
The tides are turning now
You are not alone
They gave you their worst and you bought it
The lie has been exposed
You are not alone
Like winter that comes quick
In early September
The rain clouds that washed me
Are what I remember
The stones that I threw piled high like a mountain
Which I had to climb before I reach the fountain
If life a riddle then riddle me this
The blood tasted sweet as it passed by my lips
Don't, don't waste your time
Don't, don't waste your time
Don't waste your time
Don't waste your time if you've got it
The tides are turning now
You're not alone
Liar, liar
They gave you their worst and you bought it
The lie has been exposed
You are not alone

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”
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

"A lost sense of direction "Nobody knows my name Confidence, correction I don't know how to play that game"
This part has to do with being lost in sin, stuck in the cycle of trying to find satisfaction in it and not knowing how to get out.
"A straight line is quicker A straight line would make me fast I've burned my nose enough to know That straight lines never last"
The straight line is the holy life that God calls us all to live, but none of us are perfect. we all stumble and fall. when he says "burned my nose," he's talking about falling on his face. Satan has tricked him into believing that God's will for his life is just not worth the effort.
"Swallow your soul, drink from this life As you choke on your pride We all look elsewhere We all look elsewhere"
HowIChoose2Live, you pretty much nailed this part. "we all look elsewhere"...that means that we're always looking somewhere other than where God wants us for satisfaction.
"It's safer inside doors Nobody has to flee A broken vessel passed the rocks and out to sea [he has drifted very far into his sin pattern] Waiting, wanting, mad with purpose Now we come to talk to one Who has the answers to how" [he has realized that his sin holds no lasting fulfillment for him, so he cries out to God]
Swallow your soul, drink from this life As you choke on your pride Don't waste your time if you've got it The tides are turning now [he's turning around and running full-speed back to God] You are not alone [God's on his side] They gave you their worst and you bought it The lie has been exposed [Satan's lie that your sin can make you truly happy] You are not alone Like winter that comes quick In early September The rain clouds that washed me Are what I remember [i think the rainclouds mean God, or whatever caused him to return to God] The stones that I threw piled high like a mountain Which I had to climb before I reach the fountain [the stones are his sin. he needs to conqer his sin before he can reach the proverbial fountain] If life a riddle then riddle me this The blood tasted sweet as it passed by my lips [his sin tasted sweet while it lasted, but it was killing him all along]
Don't, don't waste your time Don't, don't waste your time Don't waste your time Don't waste your time if you've got it The tides are turning now You're not alone Liar, liar [don't you just sometimes want to scream at Satan "LIAR!"] They gave you their worst and you bought it The lie has been exposed You are not alone
