We used to be best friends
Hanging out in the parking lot
Like the day would never end.
You came up with all the plans
I'll be waiting by my window,
In your brother's car you've come to rescue me
Cause I need you to
Take me out, make me laugh
Never say now I want to go
Back home, all alone
And it makes me sad, cause now you won't
Take me out, make me laugh
Never say now I want to go
Back home, all alone
And it makes me sad, cause now you won't.
We used to dream all day.
Play guitar like a rock and roll star
Sing along while the record played
'round and 'round and 'round
We would never come down
Take me out, make me laugh
Never say now I want to go
Back home, all alone
And it makes me sad, cause now you won't
Take me out, make me laugh
Never say now I want to go
Back home, all alone
And it makes me sad, cause now you won't
Let me go
If I'm the one you're holding on to
Let me go
Cause after all this time I know that I'm the one who can't let go.
Take me out, make me laugh
Never say now I want to go
Back home, all alone
And it makes me sad, cause now you won't
Repeat chorus
We used to be best friends.
Hanging out in the parking lot like the day would never end.
Take me back.

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.
