The other night I went to this show
If this one band wasn't playing, I wouldn't have wanted to go
So then with about an hour left, they didn't play and they evacuated the whole set
And I felt like rioting all night, and I felt like getting into a fist fight
And I felt like hitting the first motherfuck who acted anything like a jerk
What I felt, I need to get down but I then I heard that funky sound
And it made me feel better, so I booked and I put on my hooded sweater
Laid back, puffed it down

I shouldn't be so angry
Happy faces made me sick
Couldn't brush things off, hard or soft
Stress building in my head right now
Is hurting me right now

1,2,3 and I got up for another day
Seemed like everything was fine just another day
Then I got a phone call from my friend
Telling me some news I didn't want to hear and
Then it came to me loud and clear
Too much stress is making me fear the things I shouldn't fear
My thoughts were getting all pointless
Only felt like sleeping to avoid the stress
Yeah, my thoughts were battling that day
And not a thing could get in their way
The summertime should blow my mind

But I'm looking at the face of all this time
I could only feel was the weather
It was hot enough to die
And I couldn't get all this off my chest
Looking at that girl with big breasts but
I don't think that I want her
'Cause she's too young and I feel dumb
Messing around with this young hot girl
Immature and in a totally different world than me
I need to move on, maybe, but the girl that I really want
She'll probably never take me
Listen to me again
Pessimistic as a manic depressive, I think
I need a lesson or two from you or you sometime

I shouldn't be so angry
Happy faces, made me sick
Couldn't brush things off, hard or soft
Stress building in my head right now
Is hurting me right now

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.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.
