Tinseltown is coming like a giant bleeding heart,
and I'm so mad, well these kids try to be funny man.
Well I don't think it's happened much,
so we must destroy your art,
and you'll be glad that you stopped sinning,
and stopped caring about trying to do
new things are a dream that every single person has,
and it's not real.
well I know I'm not too well equipped,
But things go by so quickly I can scarcely stop to grasp
the things I'm feelin now, and I don't doubt
that everyone can feel it too.

Everything is happenin' so fast
(Everything is happenin so fast)
Everything is happenin so fast
(Everything is happenin so fast)

Nature is to blame for the things we cannot tame
so let's destroy it. Oh.
I don't know about you,
but I feel like a barbarian man, stop me if you can.
When the poison drips,
to create the same type of graph,
available at your fingertips,
when the poison drips.

Everything is happenin so fast
(Everything is happenin so fast)
Everything is happenin so fast
(Everything is happenin so fast)
Everything is happenin so fast
(Everything is happenin so fast)
Everything is happenin so fast
(Everything is happenin so fast)

    My Opinion

    i think its about the way everything has become soo cheapened. i think the "so we must destroy your art, and you'll be glad that you stopped sinning, and stopped caring about trying to do new things are a dream that every single person has, and it's not real. well I know I'm not too well equipped," part is about trying to make new art and music sometimes being an artist you feel like everythings been done.

    andd i think the "Nature is to blame for the things we cannot tame so let's destroy it. Oh. I don't know about you, but I feel like a barbarian man, stop me if you can" part is about people destroying the earth and pollution and how wrong a turn mankind has made

    and "When the poison drips, to create the same type of graph, available at your fingertips" is saying when the bad things start to happen from all mistakes weve made does it chart the same graph that was available at our finger tips in the first place lol thats my lonnng-ass opinion

The Night We Met
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
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.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
