He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.
Stepping up
No excuses are welcome
Take the cog
Its not your time to show the
World you've come
Prisoners are not an option
So draw your guns
And show them who I am
Just another taste
Will heal everything
My arsenal has just been tapped
I found the cure
To insecurity
The phoenix will be released
Stare them down
Nothing can hold me back
Blocking all
Light that shields fear
Powered by
A source like no other
Show them why
You are the one who's strong
The crowd is getting restless
Conveying lack of heart
There's only one way to win
The purest flame
That's ever touched my lips
Will drag this fire out of me
can't believe how I am
Falling down, falling down
I thought I wouldn't be
So dependent, so dependent
Now I am giving in
To my weakness, to my weakness
Can't stop giving in, giving in
To my weakness, to my weakness
Is this me
Succumb to weakness
Is this me
Succumb to weakness
Is this me
Running far
Run from all my problems
That haunt in me
Must escape
Taking the only poison
That sets me free
Running far
Running from all my problems
That haunt in me
Must escape
Taking the only poison
That sets me free
No excuses are welcome
Take the cog
Its not your time to show the
World you've come
Prisoners are not an option
So draw your guns
And show them who I am
Just another taste
Will heal everything
My arsenal has just been tapped
I found the cure
To insecurity
The phoenix will be released
Stare them down
Nothing can hold me back
Blocking all
Light that shields fear

Conveying lack of heart
There's only one way to win

That's ever touched my lips

can't believe how I am
Falling down, falling down
I thought I wouldn't be
So dependent, so dependent
Now I am giving in
To my weakness, to my weakness
Can't stop giving in, giving in
To my weakness, to my weakness
Is this me
Succumb to weakness
Is this me
Succumb to weakness
Is this me
Running far
Run from all my problems
That haunt in me
Must escape
Taking the only poison
That sets me free
Running far
Running from all my problems
That haunt in me
Must escape
Taking the only poison
That sets me free

Techno Ted

Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
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"
Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri

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.
Running from your problems by using a drug to set you free. Drug problems and how the affect your friends and family. This reminds me of times I wish I didn't have to deal with life.
