well drink corn liquor
til a quarter to four
drank it to the bottom of the bottle
couldn't take no more
but every liquor store in the town's closed down
we gotta hit the bootlegger
get us one more round
no one is this crew is alright for drivin'
soon as you get behind the wheel
man no one survivin'
next thing we're out the door
had the Caddy fired up
had the pedals flat on the floor we were

drunk and drivin'
to a real good time yea
drivin out of my mind
and there ain't no way
we're gonna come back alive again
oh woah woah

well the bootlegger said
"Boys, I think you met your limit."
saw the look in my eye
said "I'll be back in just a minute."
come out the back room
and stuck a gun in my face
then I shot the fucker dead
man cleared his place well
pull the car out back
fill the Caddy up
with whiskey bourbon and Jack
we dowsed the place with gas
threw down a lit match
and got out damn fast
and we were

drunk and drivin'
to a real good time yea
drivin' out of my mind
and there ain't no way
we're gonna come back alive again
whiskey burnin'
let them fuckin' learnin'
flames shootin' up
right on through the holey earth

truth is you might die
oh but you just might come out alive
you never know unless you try
you never know unless you try
you might find out how much fun it is

drunk and drivin'
to a real good yea
drivin' out of my mind
and there ain't no way
we're gonna come back alive again
whiskey burnin'
let them fuckin' learnin'
flames shootin' up
right on through the holey earth yea
oh woah woah
oh woah woah
oh woah woah

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.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
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”

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
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.
