The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
I hear your boyfriends jealous
sweating at the neck, and a little bit nervous
there's nothing wrong with having some fun
i betcha he's thinking it's love on the run.
no more, so push-push and shove ya?
but you can't help it that you want me so much.
He's gonna have to face the facts
once you're with me there's no turning -
back stage and behind the scenes, i can't change so naturally
It's not, my fault - that i'm so good looking,
and it's not my fault - that i've got something cooking,
and just look into these eyes
to let you know that - i'm the master of disguise, i am the master of disguise.
(Master of disguise.)
Everybody knows when i drop its like the H-bomb
make you lose your breath, and then some.
Take a picture cause it wont last long,
i change my face like a chameleon
chamele-order up, our relationship goes?
you know it's all part of the show, because -
It's not, my fault - that i'm so good looking
and it's not my fault - that i've got something cooking
and just look into these eyes
to let you know that - i'm the master of disguise, i am the master of disguise.
it's not, my fault - that i'm so good looking
and it's not my fault
and it's not my fault - that i've got something cooking
and i'm the master of disguise.
it's not, my fault - that i'm so good looking
and it's not my fault - that i've got something cooking
and just look into these eyes
to let you know that - i'm the master of disguise, i am the master of disguise.
it's not, my fault - that i'm so good looking
and it's not my fault - that i've got something cooking
and just look into these eyes
to let you know that - i'm the master of disguise, i am the master disguise.

In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
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.

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.
actually, it's I change,change so naturally....if I hear correctly. Yeah. I love this song, though.
i may have some idea...but i'm not sure i really understand the implied meaning of this song. nonetheless, it's got an awesome beat and FF5 rocks no matter what.
This song makes me laugh. xD Well, the meaning seems to be about how awesome he is lol.
I actually think it's: "I change my face like a chameleon chamele-on or off, our relationship goes"
wow so when you first hear this song you think "Wow Soul Glow must be pretty concited..." but then i thought about it...c'mon give him a break. i mean, why should you have to be all modest when you've got a face like that?? he must be the hottest man on the face of the earth!(=
