It was a cold day in December
I remember it so well
You captured my whole being
And you left me in a spell

You warmed my heart with passion
Desiring all of you
You left me cold in the summer
I wish that I only knew but-

I never knew that you would be the one
To come along and snatch my heart and run
Away from me with no explanation why
I never knew what we had would die
All I wanna do is hide away
From all the hurt and pain of yesterday
Don't you see the tears, the hurt inside?
I never knew, please tell me why

All the nights you left me crying
Keeping company with my fears
That some day you'd leave me lonely
And that's exactly what you did
I swore that I was your baby
The darkest night for you I'd bear
Now that I need you here with me
I call your name and you're not there

You left me standing
So empty-handed
Out in the cold
How was I to know
That my love didn't matter
And my world was shattered
'Cause you left me here
Drowning in tears, oh why?

I never knew that you would be the one
To come along and snatch my heart and run
Away from me with no explanation why
I never knew what we had would die
All I wanna do is hide away
From all the hurt and pain of yesterday
Don't you see the tears, the hurt inside?
I never knew, please tell me why

After we made plans to spend our lives together
I thought what we had was meant to be forever
Oh why did our love have to go away?
I don't know how, I don't know when
But I know, I'll never love this way again

I never knew that you would be the one
To come along and snatch my heart and run
Away from me with no explanation why
I never knew what we had would die
All I wanna do is hide away
From all the hurt and pain of yesterday
Don't you see the tears, the hurt inside?
I never knew, please tell me why

I never knew that you would be the one
To come along and snatch my heart and run
Away from me with no explanation why
I never knew what we had would die
All I wanna do is hide away
From all the hurt and pain of yesterday
Don't you see the tears, the hurt inside?
I never knew, please tell me why

I never knew, I never knew
I never knew it could be like this

I never knew, I never knew
I never knew it could be like this

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
