No

I have bled
And I have given
The longest of rivers
And the longest of ropes

Knee deep
Among your wreckage
And uncertainty
With anguish my crown

No love, no hope
No love, no hope

Knee deep
Among your wreckage
And uncertainty
With anguish my crown

Knee deep
Among your wreckage
And uncertainty
With anguish my crown

No love, no hope
No love, no hope
No love, no hope
No love, no hope

I lay claim to this day
I lay claim to this day

Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere

I've lost count of the second
second chances
I lay claim to this day

Knee deep
Among your wreckage
And uncertainty
With anguish my crown

No love, no hope
No love, no hope
No love, no hope
No love, no hope

I lay claim to this day
I lay claim to this day
I lay claim to this day
I lay claim to this day

No... no
The past haunts me today
No love

    I think this is about the destruction and heartache caused by Jacob's girl with no remorse.

    "I've given you the longest of rivers and the longest of rope" The longest of rope part would be enough to hang yourself with. But she doesn't realize how destructive she's being.

    "Knee deep among your wreckage and uncertainty" hints at how much Jacob has to deal with. Wreckage and uncertainty perhaps as to how she emotionally toys within and now he's sick of it.

    "I've lost count of the second chances"

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.
