II y a des trains
Des trains soufflant tout au bout des quais de hasard
Transportant des hommes qui vont toujours plus loin
Pour des ailleurs et ces ailleurs sont aux confins
Des nulle part

II y a des trains
Enveloppés dans la fumée grise des gares
Qui portent en eux l’espoir comme le désespoir
Des trains usés conduits par des mécaniciens
Aux gueules noires

Dans les wagons
Certains sourient mais d’autres pleurent quand ils vont
Vers le bonheur, vers la douleur vers d’autres lieux
Avec des rêves ou bien des larmes dans le fond
Rougi des yeux

Ces trains qui courent
Trains de l’ennui, trains de banlieue d’aller-retour
Du lever tôt, du coucher tard sans horizon
Et pour tous ceux qui ont perdu leurs illusions
Le poids des jours

II y a des trains
Trains rutilants prêts à partir pour d’autres parts
Au bout du monde, havre béni par tous les
Dieux au bout du rêve au bout du rail, sous d’autres cieux
Aux parfums rares

II y a des trains
Qui donnent envie soudain de larguer les amarres
L’envie de partir et de tout abandonner
Sans prévenir pour effacer tout le passé
De la mémoire

Y a des wagons
Des wagons lits, wagons de nuit, où il fait bon
Faire l’amour sans phrases creuses et superflues
Avec une femme au hasard, femme sans nom
Et inconnue

Je rêve aux trains
De militaires ou de bestiaux et sur le sein
De cette femme au souffle chaud fruit de désir
Qui m’offrira et la passion et le plaisir
Quand dans ses reins
Se plantera le rythme lancinant du va-et-vient
Du train

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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”

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.

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.
