Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Yeah, whoa, whoa, mmh, oh
Yeah, whoa, whoa
Haha
Yeah
My name is Scott Mescudi, yeah
Mmmh
Yeah
Gotta get it through my thick head
I was so close to bein' dead, yeah
Life, live it with nobody's help tips
Man, I'm just walkin' without bein' led
See the world is so crazy and filled with such risk and, man
I just know I gotta dodge them, yeah
The beginnings are followed by an end
In the in-between time I'm not runnin' or hidin'
See things do come around
And make sense eventually
Things do come around
But some things trouble me
The people I met and the places I've been
Are all what make me the man I so proudly am
But I wanna know one thing
When did I become a ghost?
I'm mostly confused about the world I live in
They think that I'm lonely, well, I probably am
One thing that still gets me
When did I become a ghost? Yeah
Na-na-na na-na-na-na, oh, whoa-whoa, ha, ha
Yeah, yeah, whoa-whoa-whoa, yo
Tried to fight it
But soon that gave in
Went down a road with no lights on, mh
Can't describe it, and you don't move like them
You become their worst nightmare
You remember the things that your parents had said, and, well
Rather find out the hard way
You should tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a friend
I keep with my stroll, I'm not runnin' or hidin'
See things do come around
And make sense eventually
Things do come around
But some things still trouble me
The people I met and the places I've been
Are all what make me the man I so proudly am
But I wanna know one thing
When did I become a ghost?
I'm mostly confused about the world I live in
They think that I'm lonely, well, I probably am
One thing that still gets me
When did I become a ghost? Yeah
Na-na-na na-na-na-na, oh, whoa-whoa, mmh-yeah
Yeah, whoa-whoa
Mmm (ah-ooh), ohh (ah-ooh)
I hope they understand that I really understand that
They don't understand (ah-ooh)
I hope they understand that I really understand that
They don't understand (ah-ooh)
I really understand that they
I really think I, um (ah-ooh)
I hope they understand that I really understand that
They don't understand, whoa
Listen to me

Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.

Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.
Could it not be linked to depression? Ghost as invisible.
Zombie is more what you were talking about. Going through the motions.
I think it could also possibly be linked to the lack of respect he would be getting from any and everyone. Ghost would imply that they don't really see him as someone who is capable.
" I hope they understand that I really understand that they don't understand"
Either way, there is a ton of different ways to look at this song. And it can make for some great conversation.
