Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
Oh, oh (oh, oh)
I just wanted you to comfort me
When I called you late last night, you see
I was falling into love
Yes, I was crashing into love
Oh, of all the words you sang to me
About life, the truth and being free
Yeah, you sang to me
Oh, how you sang to me
Girl, I live for how you make me feel
So I question all this being real
'Cause I'm not afraid to love
For the first time, I'm not afraid of love
Oh, this day seems made for you and me
And you showed me what life needs to be
Yeah, you sang to me
Oh, you sang to me
All the while you were in front of me, I never realized
I just can't believe I didn't see it in your eyes
I didn't see it (see it)
I can't believe it (believe it)
Oh, but I feel it (feel it)
When you sing to me
How I long to hear you sing beneath the clear blue skies
And I promise you, this time I'll see it in your eyes
I didn't see it (see it)
I can't believe it (believe it)
Oh, but I feel it (feel it)
When you sing to me
Just to think you live inside of me
I had no idea how this could be
Now I'm crazy for your love
Can't believe I'm crazy for your love
The words you said, you sang to me
And you showed me where I want to be
You sang to me
Oh, you sang to me
All the while you were in front of me, I never realized
I just can't believe I didn't see it in your eyes
I didn't see it (see it)
I can't believe it (believe it)
Oh, but I feel it (feel it)
When you sing to me
How I long to hear you sing beneath the clear blue skies
And I promise you, this time I'll see it in your eyes
I didn't see it (see it)
I can't believe it (believe it)
Oh, but I feel it (feel it)
When you sing to me
All the while you were in front of me, I never realized
I just can't believe I didn't see it in your eyes
I didn't see it (see it)
I can't believe it (believe it)
Oh, but I feel it (feel it)
When you sing to me
How I long to hear you sing beneath the clear blue skies
And I promise you, this time I'll see it in your eyes
I didn't see it (see it)
I can't believe it (believe it)
Oh, but I feel it (feel it)
When you sing to me
All the while you were in front of me, I never realized
I just can't believe I didn't see it in your eyes
I didn't see it (see it)
I can't believe it (believe it)
Oh, but I feel it (feel it)

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
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.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
This song is about a man who finds his muse. Her existence in his life changes him...but he doesn't realize it at first. Only once she's left does he realize that she inspired him, and this song is an ode to how she changed him. It's a romantic song, an ode to love, to how one person can come into someone elses life and make them whole.
