This is a song called closet
Closet
Oh Billie I want you so
I'm trying to meet you
Too many things they don't know
Too many repeatings
Of beatings
And I'm walking around your closet
I want you to say my name again
I'm walking around your closet
I want you to say my name again
So Billie I lost control
I'm trying to meet you
Too many things they don't know
Too many repeatings
Of beatings
So I'm walking around your closet
I want you to say my name again
So I'm walking around your closet
I want you to say my name again
So don't stop
Don't stop
Don't turn around
So Billie I lost control
I'm trying to meet you
Too many things they don't know
Too many repeatings
Of beatings
Beatings
Sayin' I'm walking around your closet
I want you to say my name again
I'm walking around your closet
I want you to say my name again
I'm walking around your closet
I want you to say my name again
I'm walking around your closet
I want you to say my name again
So Billie I lost control,
I want you to say my name again
So Billie I lost control
I want you to say my name again
So Billie I lost control
I want you to say my name again
So Billie I lost control
I want you to say my name again
So don't stop
Don't stop
Don't turn around

    My Interpretation

    Upon a few listens I always thought this was about a girl named "Billie" that was gay and the person in the song was trying to talk her through coming out of the closet. But upon further listening it sounds like an abusive partner. He "lost control" which could mean a lot of things but it the "beatings" line undoes anything very innocent. Unless Pete is using the voices throughout the song to indicate Billie\'s experience as a gay person through different lenses of being bullied.

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.

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.
