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.
Well, it's a feeling so euphoric
Non-stop pleasure slowly creeps from toe to brain.
With my multitude of senses,
Reality has become my only ball and chain.
Well, there's no hippie revelations
Or any cosmic consolations to sustain.
I'm still moving through this fantasy
It's time to place your bets
And gamble with me.
Don't stop!
I'm taking off from here.
Time takes!
Away my petty fears.
Kick-back!
Move in my stratosphere
On a ticket straight to where
Ill fate will perforate and disappear
No inhibitions, gliding straight into our fate
The unknown point.
Well, your destiny is in my hands,
Relax and its your mind I will anoint.
Please come with me, no turning back
The time you've spent with us for you are here,
'Cause it's a lesson to be learned by those
Who base their actions solely on their fears
Don't stop!
I'm taking off from here
Time takes!
Away my petty fears
Kick-back!
Move in my stratosphere
On a ticket straight to where
Ill fate will perforate and disappear.
Back off!
Unless your on this flight.
No more!
Crude actions out of spite.
Last chance!
To bail out from fright.
Hold tight - you might get air sick at my height.
Countdown Start... 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1...Launch.
Well, trailing on a blaze of thriving insight
Straight into the unknown void.
Well, I'm watching my reflection be projected
On a piece of celluloid.
Deep in the alleys of my mind
I find a dark shadow of the paranoid.
But I'll come down to see it's only me
And I hold the master-key.
Non-stop pleasure slowly creeps from toe to brain.
With my multitude of senses,
Reality has become my only ball and chain.
Well, there's no hippie revelations
Or any cosmic consolations to sustain.
I'm still moving through this fantasy
It's time to place your bets
And gamble with me.
Don't stop!
I'm taking off from here.
Time takes!
Away my petty fears.
Kick-back!
Move in my stratosphere
On a ticket straight to where
Ill fate will perforate and disappear
No inhibitions, gliding straight into our fate
The unknown point.
Well, your destiny is in my hands,
Relax and its your mind I will anoint.
Please come with me, no turning back
The time you've spent with us for you are here,
'Cause it's a lesson to be learned by those
Who base their actions solely on their fears
Don't stop!
I'm taking off from here
Time takes!
Away my petty fears
Kick-back!
Move in my stratosphere

Ill fate will perforate and disappear.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
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.
Holiday

@[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

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.
