So you gotta put yourself in my place
I don`t want to lose face

People talking `round town
Telling me that you've been putting it round
That your love for me
So they say
It`s hard to realize
That I love you this way
So you gotta put yourself in my place
Don`t want to lose face

'Coz you`re telling these lies
Everyone will think it`s no surprise
That you`re leaving me today
I never thought that I`d see you walking away
So you gotta put yourself in my place
Don`t want to lose face

So your friends turn their backs
And laugh at me
Well you just tell them
That our love could never be
And so you gotta now
Put yourself in my place

So you gotta now
Put yourself in my place
Don`t want to lose face

Why don`t we both take a chance
I`m sure that if we tried we could save our romance
I`ll never understand what you did to me
Why don`t you realize that I`ll never be free
And so you gotta
Put yourself in my place
Don`t want to lose face
No no no no no no (lose face)
Listen to me baby (lose face)
Come on come on
You gotta try
Lose face

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.
