Dry Bones

The Handsome Family

Old Enoch, he lived to be
Three-hundred and sixty-five
When the lord came and took him
Back to heaven alive

I saw, I saw the light come shining
Shining all around
I saw the light come shining
I saw the light come down

When Paul prayed in prison
Those prison walls fell down
Prison keeper shouted
Redeeming love I've found

I saw, I saw the light come shining
Shining all around
I saw that light come shining
I saw that light come down

When Moses saw that burning bush
He walked it 'round and 'round
And the lord said to Moses
You's treading holy ground

I saw, I saw the light come shining
Shining all around
I saw the light come shining
I saw the light come down

Dry bones in that valley
Got up and took a little walk
The deaf could hear
And the dumb could talk

I saw, I saw the light come shining
Shining all around
I saw the light come shining
I saw the light come down

Adam and Eve in the garden
Under that sycamore tree
Eve said to Adam
Satan never tempted me

I saw, I saw the light come shining
Shining all around
I saw the light come shining
I saw the light come down

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.

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

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.
