Here's Silence, there's silence, there's silence
In motion, in motion, in motion
We're waiting, we're waiting, we're waiting
For something, for something, for something
We travel, we travel, we travel
It's coming, it's coming, it's coming
The signals, the signals, the signals
The daylight, the daylight, the daylight
It's clearer, it's clearer, it's clearer
The background, the background, the background
We're looking, we're looking, we're looking
We're watching, we're watching, we're watching
Restrictions, restrictions, restrictions
Restrictions, restrictions, restrictions
We're constant, we're constant, we're constant
The lightning, the lightning, the lightning
We're switching, we're switching, we're switching
The others, the others, the others
Are crossing, are crossing, are crossing
The nighttime, the nighttime, the nighttime
The restless, the restless, the restless
We wonder, we wonder, we wonder
It's catching, it's catching, it's catching
The blackness, the blackness, the blackness
It's stretching, it's stretching, it's stretching
It's starting, it's starting, it's starting
Restrictions, restrictions, restrictions
Restrictions, restrictions, restrictions
The signpost, the signpost, the signpost
The timing, the timing, the timing
Reaction, reaction, reaction
Intention, intention, intention
Keep forward, keep forward, keep forward
We're trusting, we're trusting, we're trusting
The turning, the turning, the turning
We're sharing, we're sharing, we're sharing
The passing, the passing, the passing
The panic, the panic, the panic
It's creeping, it's creeping, it's creeping
The spinning, the spinning, the spinning
Restrictions, restrictions, restrictions
Distractions, distractions, distractions

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.

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."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
