Hear the cries of war
At the break of dawn
See the evil spread disease and fear to all

Through the centuries
Blood shall be the key
Now a leader of our destiny

As his army rose
Crushing endless foes
From the battle he will rain fires of hell from the sky

Bringer of the fire
For the great empire
Rising power of the fallen warriors' souls

Steel crushing steel, see the great fire descend from the sky
Never surrender, one day we'll be free
Flee from the swarm, through the forces of terror
No sacrifice 'til the end

Fly far away through the raging storm
'Til the end with the rise of the sun
On the winds rising higher through our astral empire
Break the chains, now this war shall be won

Hunting down their prey
From beyond the grave
Crush them into dust, a life of worthless slaves

Soon the world will see
Evil prophecy
Now we shall avenge a thousand warriors' souls

Now dark knowledge is mine
Voices inside
Witness the fall for the last time

Black is the power
Now is the hour to decide
Once more to

Fly far away through the raging storm
'Til the end with the rise of the sun
On the winds rising higher through our astral empire
Break the chains, now this war shall be won

Now dark knowledge is mine
Voices inside
Witness the fall for the last time

Black is the power
Now is the hour to decide
Once more to

Fly far away through the raging storm
'Til the end with the rise of the sun
On the winds rising higher through our astral empire
Break the chains, now this war shall be won

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.

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”

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,

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
