hold yourself I'm done
my arms are tired
saw you walking backwards
towards the fire
i'm in love with the red sky
i'm in love with the tragedy
we betray what we can't deny
she believes she needs me
caught a flash
of absolute perfection
shattered light
and dark
in all directions
traffic floats like a ballet
far below in the distance
just as sad as the words we'd say
it's all gone in an instant
it's just so easy, it's hard
it's just so easy, it's hard
hold me closer
I can't feel you
You'll have to trust me
I can't steal you
ash trays lie
like hearts for you to burn in
smoke curls from your mouth
before you turn in
We're in love with a black gun
I see loss in the mundane
in the hours, the minutes run,
they're not so subtle
but they have their way
it's just so easy
it's hard
it's just so easy
it's hard
hold me close,
I can't feel you
you'll have to trust me
I can't steal you
my arms are tired
saw you walking backwards
towards the fire
i'm in love with the red sky
i'm in love with the tragedy
we betray what we can't deny
she believes she needs me
caught a flash
of absolute perfection
shattered light
and dark
in all directions
traffic floats like a ballet
far below in the distance
just as sad as the words we'd say
it's all gone in an instant
it's just so easy, it's hard
it's just so easy, it's hard
hold me closer
I can't feel you
You'll have to trust me
I can't steal you
ash trays lie
like hearts for you to burn in
smoke curls from your mouth
before you turn in
We're in love with a black gun
I see loss in the mundane
in the hours, the minutes run,
they're not so subtle
but they have their way
it's just so easy
it's hard
it's just so easy
it's hard
hold me close,
I can't feel you
you'll have to trust me
I can't steal you

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”

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
I'm like crying so hard over this right now. I saw him and Brian Fallon do this one night in Terminal 5 and wasn't into it because I was just there for Gaslight, but now this one means a lot to me cause I'm going through the same sort of thing Matthew seems to sing about.
I love a girl so much. Frankly, she loves me too, but she's just not ready for a relationship. But now my persistence has pushed her away a little further, and I don't know what to do. I feel sick to my stomach. Physically ill over her. And I can't steal her. It's hard to listen to the sad Gaslight songs now, because we've shared so much over The Gaslight Anthem, and now it just hurts to listen to them. I know she'll come around one day. I know it. We're best friends and I have nobody else. It's just so hard in this situation specifically. I'm just glad there are songs like this to relate to. "I know there's someone out there feeling just like I feel" Brian Fallon's lyrics go.
