its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Entranced by her body
So bold and cursive
She takes hold
Controlling my purpose
I'm testing her patience
I accept her invitation
She make me feel so at home
But the place of my destination
There's no route to take but my own
The truth of it is
It wasn't you were asking too much
But it was more than I wanted to give
Yeah
Said the truth of it is
It wasn't you were asking too much
But it was more than I wanted to give
I didn't really mean to waste your time
Love
But you could tell there's something on my mind
Love
And I don't know why, but
But I don't feel like sharing with you
No, I don't feel
No, I don't feel like sharing with you
Said, "I ain't who I used to be," but
But I know that you didn't mean that
Now I know you felt some truth in me
'Cause I felt your nails in my back
You sewed my heart on my sleeve
Heard me say that I wanted to leave
Only a moment's reprieve
Both knowing that I'd be right back
Yeah, yeah, we pushed it to the limit
We never could let it go
I swear it's like we're addicted
I love it when she come around
And she love it when I come around
But she hate the come down
Now we're both feeling strung out
Strung out, yeah
I didn't really mean to waste your time
Love
But you could tell there's something on my mind
Love
And I don't know why, but
But I don't feel like sharing with you
No, I don't feel
No, I don't feel like sharing with you
I didn't really mean to waste your time
Love
But you could tell there's something on my mind
Love
And I don't know why, but
But I don't feel like sharing with you
No, I don't feel
No, I don't feel like sharing with you
Words turn hollow as they roll off my tongue
So stuck on what we've become
She said I'm off in my own head, told me don't withdraw too much
Worried that I'm gonna lose touch, so I'll fess up
I didn't really mean to waste your time
But there's somethin' that's been playing on my mind
You wanted pride of place, now you gotta give me right of way
But shit, we always did hate goodbyes
So bold and cursive
She takes hold
Controlling my purpose
I'm testing her patience
I accept her invitation
She make me feel so at home
But the place of my destination
There's no route to take but my own
The truth of it is
It wasn't you were asking too much
But it was more than I wanted to give
Yeah
Said the truth of it is
It wasn't you were asking too much
But it was more than I wanted to give
I didn't really mean to waste your time
Love
But you could tell there's something on my mind
Love
And I don't know why, but
But I don't feel like sharing with you
No, I don't feel
No, I don't feel like sharing with you
Said, "I ain't who I used to be," but

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

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.
