Listen up 'cause this is not the end,
You're the last thing that crossed my mind.
Relationships are based on trust,
Well I guess this one was based on lies.

Based on lies (x3)

Listen up to the ones you trust,
Just a few by your side. (Your side)
Give in, everything's going to be alright.
(Here we are one too many times.)

Now it's time for me to go,
I know, you know, the fights are getting old.

This is last chance I have to sing to you.
So sorry but I have to go,
Wash my hands off you.

You say you will never change,
I say that's too bad.
I'm sorry for all the things that you and I (Could have had)
But it's your fault for all the stupid things,
That you and I have done and said.

The lies, the cries,
It's no wonder that you are dead.

This is last chance I have to sing to you.
So sorry but I have to go,
Wash my hands off you.

Your honesty is killing me,
The page I've read, the words that said that you still love me.
You lied to me, and you don't see,
The things you've said and now your dead.
And that's alright by me.

This is the last chance I have to sing to you,
So sorry but I have to go,
Wash my hands off you.

Listen up 'cause this is not the end.

    "The things you've said and now your dead." "your dead" what? dead cat? (grammar.)

    this song is most definitely about ronnie getting kicked out of ETF and how it's not his fault: "Listen up 'cause this is not the end, You're the last thing that crossed my mind." -he's saying people haven't heard the last of him, especially ETF. "Now it's time for me to go, I know, you know, the fights are getting old." -self explanitory, ronnie knows it was time to leave anyway 'cause of all the fighting "You say you will never change, I say that's too bad. I'm sorry for all the things that you and I (Could have had) But it's your fault for all the stupid things, That you and I have done and said." -ETF was probably trying to get him to change (i'm guessing here) and he knows he won't. also, he's poiting out they could have had something greater, and it's not his fault they didn't get the chance

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.
