He certainly did earn that reputation.
It's 4 a.m., you call to spit some fire out
But did you think that I would listen to you now?
It's nothing new so get in line with all the rest
And I will wait till you realize you're out of breath
Can you hear the crowd?
They all go wild
For you and your denial
They're watching you break down (break down)
Hate me all you want,
I'll be okay
I'm half the world away
I'm letting you go now (go now)
You've got sadness twisted up with jealousy
You show your fists to make them look like loyalty
And I have seen what holding on can take away
If it's the past you love then that's where you can stay
Can you hear the crowd?
They all go wild
For you and your denial
They're watching you break down (break down)
Hate me all you want,
I'll be okay
I'm half the world away
I'm letting you go now (go now)
Go now (go now)
Desperation kills
But when it's on your sleeve you wear it well
Underneath it all
You'll always have this war inside yourself
I'm letting you go now (go now)
Can you hear the crowd?
They all go wild
For you and your denial
They're watching you break down (break down)
Hate me all you want,
I'll be okay
I'm half the world away
I'm letting you go now (go now)
Go now (go now)
Go now (go now)
Go now (go now)
But did you think that I would listen to you now?
It's nothing new so get in line with all the rest
And I will wait till you realize you're out of breath
Can you hear the crowd?
They all go wild
For you and your denial
They're watching you break down (break down)
Hate me all you want,
I'll be okay
I'm half the world away
I'm letting you go now (go now)
You've got sadness twisted up with jealousy
You show your fists to make them look like loyalty
And I have seen what holding on can take away
If it's the past you love then that's where you can stay
Can you hear the crowd?
They all go wild
For you and your denial
They're watching you break down (break down)
Hate me all you want,
I'll be okay
I'm half the world away
I'm letting you go now (go now)
Go now (go now)
Desperation kills
But when it's on your sleeve you wear it well
Underneath it all
You'll always have this war inside yourself
I'm letting you go now (go now)
Can you hear the crowd?
They all go wild
For you and your denial
They're watching you break down (break down)
Hate me all you want,
I'll be okay
I'm half the world away
I'm letting you go now (go now)
Go now (go now)
Go now (go now)
Go now (go now)

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri

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.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
This song makes me so happy that I want to brush my teeth.
I am in DENIAL that there rotting out!
