This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I'll smile wide until my mouth consumes my face and body
Maybe my life is fine but I'm finding inside
Is just a mass of a million people I've met
And it's not making any sense
All these words mean nothing
But if modern art is so apprehensible
Why can't I find meaning an anything I think
It should flow from my mind to my mouth I know
The idea never reaches my brain
I don't want it to be this way
I'd sell my soul for a thought of my own
It's cryptonesia where ever I go
I don't have drinkin or religion
To help me with my singin
I have no inspiration of my own
Maybe it's pretentious
To speak of a subject I know nothing about
And it's definitely pathetic
That I try to think of a thought
I just sing about my writers block
It's sad, it's sad, it's really fucking sad
And if I did have a thought
It'd just blend into the chorus of extras
Chanting rhubarb and sarsaparilla
Oh my thoughts don't mean anything to anybody anyway

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.
Gentle Hour

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
