I wanna hear it again, I wanna hear it again,
The Old Piano Roll Blues.
We're sittin' at an upright, my sweetie and me,
Pushin' on the pedals makin' sweet harmony.
When we hear rinkety-tink, and we hear Plinkety-plink
We cuddle closer it seems.
And while we kiss kiss, kiss, kiss, away all our cares,
The player piano's playing razz-a-ma-tazz.
I wanna hear it again, I wanna hear it again,
The Old Piano Roll Blues.

But We, Played the Piano Roll Blues
We sat there and began to play
My sweetie and me
We sat there pushing on the pedals making sweet harmony
But we, cuddle closer it seems
It seems just like a dreamin'
While we kiss, kiss, kiss, our cares all away
The player piano's playing razz-a-ma-tazz.
But we, wanna hear it again
Those Piano Roll Blues

I wanna hear it again, I wanna hear it again,
The Old Piano Roll Blues.
The Old Piano Roll Blues.
We sat there and began to play
We're sittin' at an upright, my sweetie and me,
We sat there pushin' on the pedals makin' sweet harmony.
When we hear rinkety-tink, and we hear Plinkety-plink
We cuddle closer it seems.
Cuddle closer it seems
Its like a dreamin while we kiss kiss kiss away all our cares.
The player piano's playing razz-a-ma-tazz.

I wanna hear it again, just hear it again
The Old Piano Roll Blues
The Old Piano Roll blues
The Old Piano Roll blues

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.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.

Ed Sheeran
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.
