This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
As you journey down the road my friend
You'll see sights you don't want to see
I saw one about a year ago
When my wife walked out on me
I didn't care so much about the junk she took
It wasn't worth a second glance
Right now I'd give anything
If I could see my little girl dance
See I've always been a traveling man
I still do get around
And it's true I knew a girl or two
When I was out of town
But they all add up to nothing
In this world of cheap romance
And I'd trade them all for one short hour
Watching Amy dance
She'd run round and round in circles and
Clap her little hands
It's a memory that keeps haunting me
Wish I could see my Amy dance
Wish I could my little girl dance
My Mom and Dad are gone rest their souls
My brother is far away
And the way I thought it would all turn out
And where I am today
Lord I know I don't deserve no favors
Please grant me one more chance
Just to spend an hour or two watching Amy dance
She'd run round and round in circles and
Clap her little hands
It's a memory that keeps haunting me
Wish I could see my Amy dance
Wish I could my little girl dance
It all adds up to nothing
In this world of cheap romance
And I'd trade them all for one short hour
Watching Amy dance
You'll see sights you don't want to see
I saw one about a year ago
When my wife walked out on me
I didn't care so much about the junk she took
It wasn't worth a second glance
Right now I'd give anything
If I could see my little girl dance
See I've always been a traveling man
I still do get around
And it's true I knew a girl or two
When I was out of town
But they all add up to nothing
In this world of cheap romance
And I'd trade them all for one short hour
Watching Amy dance
She'd run round and round in circles and
Clap her little hands
It's a memory that keeps haunting me
Wish I could see my Amy dance
Wish I could my little girl dance
My Mom and Dad are gone rest their souls
My brother is far away
And the way I thought it would all turn out
And where I am today
Lord I know I don't deserve no favors
Please grant me one more chance
Just to spend an hour or two watching Amy dance
She'd run round and round in circles and
Clap her little hands
It's a memory that keeps haunting me
Wish I could see my Amy dance
Wish I could my little girl dance
It all adds up to nothing
In this world of cheap romance
And I'd trade them all for one short hour
Watching Amy dance

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.

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.
Amazing

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
