This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
We don't live in a bubble
We are not too big to fail
No you can't be neutral
When you stand upon a moving train
Oh, I'm so distracted
I ride a painted horse
But it's getting ever harder
To overcome this centrifugal force
Oh, carousel, carousel
I could never live too long
I could never live too long
Oh, my carousel, carousel
I could never be too wrong
I could never be too wrong
Oh, my carousel, carousel
I could never live too long
I could never live too long
So whatever I spin, is a win-win
And will I break the vicious circle
Will I ever change my mind?
Or pull another tooth out
And offer it up for another eye?
'cause the well is running dry
And the colour's running out
When the benefits have gone
Then all that we are left with is our doubt
Oh, carousel, carousel
I could always play the fool
I could always play the fool
Oh, my carousel, carousel
Nobody is born to rule
Nobody is born to rule
Oh, my carousel, carousel
I could never be too wrong
I could never be too wrong
Oh, my carousel, carousel
When I turn around it's gone
When I turn around it's gone
I could always play the fool
I'm the sum of my parts
When I restart
'cause I'm the sum of my parts
When I restart
Will I place another bet
Will I take another spin
Whilst I still have it in my power
To begin
We are not too big to fail
No you can't be neutral
When you stand upon a moving train
Oh, I'm so distracted
I ride a painted horse
But it's getting ever harder
To overcome this centrifugal force
Oh, carousel, carousel
I could never live too long
I could never live too long
Oh, my carousel, carousel
I could never be too wrong
I could never be too wrong
Oh, my carousel, carousel
I could never live too long
I could never live too long
So whatever I spin, is a win-win
And will I break the vicious circle
Will I ever change my mind?
Or pull another tooth out
And offer it up for another eye?
'cause the well is running dry
And the colour's running out
When the benefits have gone
Then all that we are left with is our doubt
Oh, carousel, carousel
I could always play the fool
I could always play the fool
Oh, my carousel, carousel
Nobody is born to rule
Nobody is born to rule
Oh, my carousel, carousel
I could never be too wrong
I could never be too wrong
Oh, my carousel, carousel
When I turn around it's gone
When I turn around it's gone
I could always play the fool
I'm the sum of my parts
When I restart
'cause I'm the sum of my parts
When I restart
Will I place another bet
Will I take another spin
Whilst I still have it in my power
To begin

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.
