You asked for it, you paid for it
Get what you deserve
You wanted it, the benefit
How does it feel worse

Your good as gold around your neck
Look over your shoulder
Your conscious kills, your constant thrills
Shallow makeover

Hide in your eyes
Dancing in the bright lights
Take out the knife
This flash just doesn't feel right
Hide in your eyes
Mirrors tell the worst lies
Cover it up

Hide in your eyes
Dancing in the bright lights
Take out the knife
This flash just doesn't feel right
Hide in your eyes
Mirrors tell the worst lies
Cover it, cover it up

You asked for it, you paid for it
Get what you deserve
You wanted it, the benefit
How does it feel worse

Split at the ends, and lost at teeth
Foundation is older
And still your paid from the cuts you made
Shallow makeover

Hide in your eyes
Dancing in the bright lights
Take out the knife
This flash just doesn't feel right
Hide in your eyes
Mirrors tell the worst lies
Cover it up

Hide in your eyes
Dancing in the bright lights
Take out the knife
This flash just doesn't feel right
Hide in your eyes
Mirrors tell the worst lies
Cover it, cover it up

Your good as gold
Your conscious kills
Split at the ends
How does it feel
How does it feel
How does it feel

Hide in your eyes
Dancing in the bright lights
Take out the knife
This flash just doesn't feel right
Hide in your eyes
Mirrors tell the worst lies
Cover it up

Hide in your eyes
Dancing in the bright lights
Take out the knife
This flash just doesn't feel right
Hide in your eyes
Mirrors tell the worst lies
Cover it, cover it up

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
