Far

Zac Farro

Don't want to get it all wrong
But you and I both know
That I won't beat down
You would only take it up

Someone's gonna wait their turn
Someone's gonna wait in last
Someone's gonna wait their turn
Well somehow

I don't know why you want me
To walk away from you (repeat)

Never

Help, help me escape this empty room
But I can't

I don't know why you want me
To walk away from you (repeat)

I don't know why you want me
To fall away with you
And now

Sometimes we fall
Sometimes we fall
(Ah) Sometimes we fall
Sometimes we fall
We got to get back up
We got to pick it up
We got to pick it up

    someone's got it all wrong but you and i both know that i won't bury it down and you will only dig it up

    someone's gonna wait their turn someone's gonna wait in line someone's gonna wait their turn we'll soon arrive

    i don't wanna walk (walk) so far away from you i don't wanna walk (walk) so far away from you (x2 more) but you will never learn

    help help cause i don't wanna feel so empty that i could lose

    i don't wanna walk (walk) so far away from you i don't wanna walk (walk) so far away from you (x2 more) but you will never learn

    i don't wanna wake up so far away from you i don't wanna wake up so far away from you i don't wanna wake up so far away from you i don't wanna wake up so far away, but you never...

    help, help cause i don't wanna feel so empty that i could lose

    i don't wanna wake up so far away from you i don't wanna wake up so far away from you i don't wanna wake up so far away from you i don't wanna wake up so far away, but you never...

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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
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.
