I won't try to bring you down about my suicide
Got no need to understand about my big surprise
Oh I am falling through the sky
You remember this?
I am falling in their eyes
You remember the kiss?
I won't try to bring you down about my suicide
Got no need to understand about my big surprise
I won't beg to hang you up about my love of life
If you promise not to sing about the reasons why
I am writing you a letter
Getting better
Can I see you?
When,
All the lights go out together
Blame the weather
Yeah the cold again
In the darkness for a second
I am sure I see them smiling then
I feel them calling me
Yeah they are calling me
And I am falling through the stars
You remember now?
Yeah I am falling in their arms
You remember how?
Oh I am falling through the sky
You remember this ?
I am falling in their eyes
You remember the kiss?
I won't try to pull you in about my sacrifice
Makes no sense to get upset about the other side
I won't beg to put you out about my right to die
If you promise not to sing about the reasons why
I am calling you at midnight
Feeling alright, can I tell you?
When?
On the line no sound but my words
Must be night birds on the wire again
In the silence for a second
I am sure I hear them laughing then
I feel them calling me
Yeah they are calling me
I am falling through the stars
You remember now
Yeah, I am falling in their arms
You remember how
I am falling through the sky
You remember this
I am falling in their eyes
You remember the kiss
"We know"
They said
"You're holding on
To nothing left of something gone"
"We know"
They said
"In letting go
Of fear and dread
And all you know
You'll lose the need of certainty
And make-believe eternity
To find the true reality
In beautiful infinity"
But I won't try to bring you down about my suicide
If you promise not to sing about the reasons why
Got no need to understand about my big surprise
Oh I am falling through the sky
You remember this?
I am falling in their eyes
You remember the kiss?
I won't try to bring you down about my suicide
Got no need to understand about my big surprise
I won't beg to hang you up about my love of life
If you promise not to sing about the reasons why
I am writing you a letter
Getting better

When,
All the lights go out together
Blame the weather

I am sure I see them smiling then
I feel them calling me
Yeah they are calling me
And I am falling through the stars
You remember now?
Yeah I am falling in their arms
You remember how?
Oh I am falling through the sky
You remember this ?
I am falling in their eyes
You remember the kiss?

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.

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
Don't get me wrong, I love the Cure but has it ever passed your mind that maybe they kinda worship the devil and when they say "I am falling through the sky" that their trying to be as demons? Also with the sacrifice part.
@bleekerface Not sure about the other Curesters, but Robert Smith is an atheist, and has been for a very long time. (He was raised Catholic.) I strongly doubt that he believes in the supernatural, whether good or evil (or neutral, for that matter). Check out the song "Where the Birds Always Sing" if you doubt me. The lines in this one, "You'll lose the need of certainty/and make-believe eternity" might also imply that suicide could be a way of rejecting religion in general, and the idea of an afterlife in particular. Your so-called "soul" doesn't outlive your body, of course, but you become, in some weird sense, one with the universe — "beautiful infinity" — just a bunch of atoms, floating through infinity, no longer having to worry about keeping all those cells and things together and working properly (not to mention pesky stuff like combing your hair and keeping your nails trimmed <g>). I often find myself forgetting that Smith never graduated from university, because so much of his poetry comes across as very intellectual.<br /> <br /> Smith has also suffered from depression, so It's not hard to imagine that even while grieving over the death of a young person (in '87 Smith would have been about 28), he could empathise with the fan who wrote the suicide note.<br /> <br /> I love the "They are calling me" parts, although I confess, this bit often gets me weepy. It's just too...familiar. At one point when I was in my 20s I almost felt like I was cursed because so many people I was close to had died. "Yeah: they are calling me." It suggests to me a young person who has many close friends who have died — suicides, ODs or accidents caused by being f***ed-up on drugs, or just ruining their health with junk food, drugs, unprotected sex and/or needle-sharing,, etc.<br /> <br /> The part about the kiss gets me confused. Any clue there?
