The coolest enemy
That I have ever seen
is huming on impending war
he slouches on the couch
and tramples on the vow
not to come here anymore

Some persistent nerve
That he has got preserved
when i am all dry ice to touch
an unaffected smile
to add up to his pile
of insolence immaculate

time has deserted us
so have our days
the author has written us
out of his play
and without a sound
ill gently vaporize

He is bringing drinks and talk
and chicken wings on fork
that dances in his master plan
and everything gets turned
like nothings ever learned
the gates of hell unlock themselves

now what else could it be
when you face your enemy
still to soft shelled to withstand
this growing pressure balloon
is meant to crack up soon
the silence to be infinite

time has deserted us
so have our days
the author has written us
out of his play
and without a sound
ill slowly glide away

I am not saying where i am headed
or where I will end
surely would regret it
i am not precious but well spent
and without a sound
Ill quickly vaporize

closed ends
past tense
dead friends
no offense

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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
