You hang around and walk
As i take a drag from the cloud i'm shaking
Now i don't care how i hurt myself today
All my bones are breaking anyway
Sister, it's alright!

Learn to love the ways you are
Beautiful and broken heart
If perfect wounds won't leave a scar then
Everything will

I awake as i wait for you, all alone
I'm thinking that time is what i use
While my bones are sinking
With the rocks i have glued to them
Oh brother, it's alright!

Learn to burn the ways you are
Falling down and dreaming hard
If broken bones are perfect flaws, then..
Everything will, everything will, everything will
Be alright

Jump with me on a ride castling
And soon you'll be on your own to see
Oh choose or lose
Where the life has meaning
And you will see there is life underneath

Everything, come on come on now
Everything, come on come on now
Everything that's broken will be alright

Everything, come on come on now
Everything, come on come on now
Everything that's broken will be alright

    Ah, I effin' adore this song. It's the only song that I've ever heard by Lovedrug but, eh, maybe I'll look into some of their other stuff now. It's not even really the sound or singing of it... nor the lyrics... but two, three lines.

    'Learn to burn the ways you are. Falling down and dreaming hard If...' ...et cetera.

    It's kind of inspiring.'

    It's such a beautiful song. I think it's about accepting your pain and brokenness as something that's changed you for the better and learning from it. Instead of letting it weigh you down and make you a negative person, he's saying to remember that things will always get better eventually and until then, just realize that there's a meaning for what's happening. Every time I hear it I think of a friend of mine. He went through a really bad breakup a few years ago and he's let it affect it negatively, to the point that he had to break up with this great girl he really liked because he's still hurting too much to have her around. And I just want to play this song for him and make him realize that he doesn't have to let his pain affect him the way it currently is.

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.

Little Feat
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”

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
