You can't help but be who you are
Your feet on the ground
Your head in the stars
And I can't help but love who I love
You're still on my mind
In the heavens above
And I've got my

Hands on the wheel of my rocket mobile
And I'm a hundred million miles from home
My head's in the stars on a mission to Mars
And I'm a hundred million miles from home
A hundred million miles from home
And I've got to get a message to you

I can't change the things that I've done
The hearts I might have broken
The races I've won
And now it's all about the road that I'm on
My eyes on the mission
My troubles be gone
'Cause I got my

Hands on the wheel of my rocket mobile
And I'm a hundred million miles from home
My head's in the stars on a mission to Mars
And I'm a hundred million miles from home
A hundred million miles from home
And I've got to get a message to you


Now there's nothing but starlight glowing
And this pain in my heart keeps growing
Sometimes I feel like a fool
Your gravitational pull
Is gonna tear me apart
Hey, hey, yeah

You can't help, but be who you are
Even a hundred million miles from home
I can't remember what I wanted to say
Now I'm a hundred million miles from home

And I got my
Hands on the wheel of my rocket mobile
And I'm a hundred million miles from home
My head's in the stars on a mission to Mars
And I'm a hundred million miles from home
A hundred million miles from home
And I've got to get a message to you
I've got to get a message
I've got to get a message to you
I've got to get a message to you

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.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.
