Cultivate

Mudvayne

Got the disease in my mind that chaos runs through in you
Guilty toys for your insides
Just plead and I'll conduct you
Believe in me, I'm the juice

Receive from me the hand of truth
In still your trust I'll take you there
I penetrate and run through
Feel it so warm

Branded forearm
Synthetic high that drains you
Accelerated poles
Blood rush through

Branded forearm
Mudvayne returned
Inner mutiny lost tranquility
Broken people fixed again plumming christened with disorder

? took a spell to possess you
You embrace me for the high
Unfocused black swells as you die
Inner icon solicits sympathy

Departed being struggles so desperately
I'm so outside myself
Breathless body betrays my cry for help
Rest in earth,

Rest in peace
Await rebirth as I roll up my sleeve feel
Roll up my fuckin' sleeve
It so warm

Branded forearm
Masticate you as I cultivate through
You're life I loathe,
Motherfucker!

Scrambled being your impressions leaking
Sins been bastioned in you
Do what I do just to see through you
Your life is death now

Consequences been plowed under earth
Ashes to ashes dust to dust
Want you dead so much

    Yes, this song is about herion addiction. However, as many songs that Mudvayne has that are about addiction, you all should know that they talk about using drugs to escape reality. they write about, literally, killing themselves with addiction. They want to sedate themselves until life "fades" away. Chad seems to believe that, or at least pretends to believe that, he will be reborn after this life is over. He wants to leave this horrible thing called life that has haunted him forever. Or, at least, that's what I gather.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
