Corre, déjalo atrás
No busques la razón
El miedo no acepta excusas
No tiene compasión

No dejes que te atrape a ti
Huye de esta ilusión

Cuando una pesadilla
Te atrapa, la maldad
Te cubre con su manto negro
Y te arrastra sin parar

No dejes que te atrape a ti
Huye de esta ilusión

Despiértate, olvídalo
Aquello nunca sucedió
Todo fue una ilusión

Despiértate, olvídalo
Aquello nunca sucedió
Todo fue una ilusión

Es tan frío ese sudor
Que te llega a recorrer
Todo el cuerpo mientras duermes
Mientras piensas en volver

Escúchalo, lo oirás llegar
Te intentará engañar

Sientes que tu alma
Vuelve a visitar
Esa cama que dejaste
Anoche sin avisar

Escúchalo, lo oirás llegar
Te intentará engañar

Despiértate, olvídalo
Aquello nunca sucedió
Todo fue una ilusión

Despiértate, olvídalo
Aquello nunca sucedió
Todo fue una ilusión

No, no es verdad
Todo es un sueño
Pero es real
Dimelo tú
Reina del mal
Cuando voy yo a despertar

Despiértate, olvídalo
Aquello nunca sucedió
Todo fue una ilusión

Despiértate, olvídalo
Aquello nunca sucedió
Todo fue una ilusión

Despiértate, olvídalo
Aquello nunca sucedió
Todo fue una ilusión

Despiértate, olvídalo
Aquello nunca sucedió
Todo fue una ilusión

its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard

The Spy
Doors, The
Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

Battle Royale
Word Alive, The
This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone). And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.
