Drown me in your lies and your unrepentant selfishness. Blood thirsty and deceitful. We were to be sheep among wolves. Oh but our flesh never tasted so good. You call me your brother. You call me your family. But you lie to my face. Look me in the eye you coward. I ought to put you in the ground. I ought to put you in the ground. You die with your secrets. You die with your secrets. We all die with our secrets. We all die with our secrets. I question your loyalty. Shed your skin. You were never one of us. I question your loyalty. Drink the blood. You were never one of us. I will never trust the hands of men. Never trust again. Will never trust the hands of men. Never trust again... We walk in the same circles. We walk the same streets but I’m not hiding in dark corners. How did you think you could keep this from me? I can’t think of one thing big enough to lie about. That’s small enough not to matter, not to matter. You kept your enemies closer than you kept me. Not cause you’re scared of defeat, but so your lies can’t be seen. You kept your enemies closer than you kept me. Not cause you’re scared of defeat, but so your lies can’t be seen.

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.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
