I won't say anything 'cause I don't mean it
Won't make a promise 'cause I won't keep it
Believe me now, I'd only lie to you

Well I've said that thought a thousand times
I believe in something that I can't find
So believe me now, I'd only lie to you

Now won't you say something
Please say something
And believe me now, I'd only lie to you

I spend my time collecting all these scars
And I know I'm, lying by the truth that's in your charm
I hope down inside, I can't be what I'm not

Well I've said that thought a thousand times
I believe in something that I can't find
So believe me now, I'd only lie to you

Now won't you say something
Please say something
And believe me now, I'd only lie to you

Now won't you say something
Please say something
And believe me now, I'd only lie to you

    I think this is one of the best songs ever written and Haven are going to be THE BAND of 2002.

    It's a good song about something or other. I've met the drummer a few times. He's a nice guy, so is the bassist. They should be fairly big in 2002.

    this song was played in my room when my ex was saying goodbye before flying back to UK.and we both cried coz we still loved each other but we couldn't be back together again.and it's just so sad,and the music is dramatic and the lyric is just great with "..I spent my time collecting all the scars and I know I'm lying but the truth is in your charm."

    this is really good and it makes it extra good that the band come from cornwall, anyway its fairly obvious its about a girl and a guy, the guy is saying he wants to end the relationship or doesnt want to start one coz it will end in tears and he will end up lying to her.

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.

Head > Heels

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.
