6-5000

Born Ruffians

(Intro)

Yeahhhh
I got the beach in my toenails
From last night, oh what a night
All by myself ridin the rails
To Sunday light, oh what a light
Two bottles empty, I smash them open
And gave away all of my things
All of my savings, yeah come Wednesday
I'm gonna sing, I'm gonna sing

Six, Five Thousand call me there, call me there
Six, Five Thousand in the air, oh in the air
Six (six) Five (five) Thousand
I said why, I said whyy
Six (six) Five (five) Thousand
In the sky, in the skyy

I'm ok, I hear you asking
I'm alright, I'm alright
All by myself, but I'm baskin'
In the light, oh in the light
Drawing pictures of my toenails
And gave away all of my things
I'm not savin' any bad days,
Let it rain, oh let it rain

Six, Five Thousand call me there, call me there
Six, Five Thousand in the air, oh in the air
Six (six) Five (five) Thousand
I said why, I said whyy
Six (six) Five (five) Thousand
In the sky, in the skyy

(Break)

I'll be hopin' that you're busy
Oh when I go, when I go
I'll quote Shakespeare, I'll quote Disney
In the show, oh in the show
I can see now where I'm wanted
I can see now just how to be
There's no pain and no taxes
Oh it would seem, oh it would seem

Six, Five Thousand call me there, call me there
Six, Five Thousand in the air, oh in the air
Six (six) Five (five) Thousand
I said why, I said whyy
Six (six) Five (five) Thousand
In the sky, in the skyy

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

The Night We Met
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
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.
