The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
It's Peter

It's P-Dank
Smoked It All 2
Uh, and maybe you feel the same
I would rather Nathaniel Hawthorne than Lil' Wayne
Either way I'll be that next one, no question
I got no time for champagne or a chest-bump, son
The world we're livin' in is quite depressing
'Cause my daughter's only 2, but she's talkin bout texting
And I'll be stressing when she's thinkin bout sex and
Socks off, beer gut, on the couch watchin wrestling
And these times are darker than coal mines
All the countries got beef like imported bovine
This way to Armageddon, read the road signs
But I got 'em crackin up, I'm honest to a fault line
I promise, no fibs when the kids on it, runnin with it
Like a population runnin from a comet
You know who it is, C-Dog on the bonnet
He who never moves slow like plate tectonics
In fact, some cats might think I'm just a blur
A fictitious figure, tall tale of the birds
I'm movin so fast, they're sittin on the curb
I'm at a speed that these fleas never seen, so superb
And YouTube views up a couple mil and that's sweet
But Pete won't stop til I'm known for my skills with the quill
Dollar bills won't quell that desire to build
I'm perspiring still
So I spew Kung Fu for you, and every bitch you wish you didn't hit
On the list of bitches ran through
I usually don't say 'bitch' so much, I'm polite
But I grew up on rap music and watchin my parents fight, bitch
P-Dank
That's all

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.
