In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Hey pretty lady, you look so fine
I wanna hit the dance floor, if you don't mind
You're the perfect honey to come and boogie with me
I gotta get you close enough to feel your heartbeat
It's your frame that makes me lose control
It's your vibe that makes me want you more and more
Whatever it is girl, don't stop
I promise I will take you all the way to the top
I wanna get to know you baby
If it's alright
I wanna see ya move your body for me all night
Want you get down, want you get down
I wanna get to know you baby
If it's alright
I wanna see ya move your body for me all night
Want you get down, want you get down
The time is right now, no second chance
For you and I this is the last dance
I know you want me, I see it in eyes, it's true
Give me all your numbers so I can reach out and touch you
It's your frame that makes me lose control
It's your vibe that makes me want you more and more
Whatever it is girl, don't stop
I wanna get to know you baby
If it's alright
I wanna see ya move your body for me all night
Want you get down, want you get down
I wanna get to know you baby
If it's alright
I wanna see ya move your body for me all night
Want you get down, want you get down
Everybody get your grove on in this party
Hope you ain't got nothing to do tonight
We're about to come and rock this party right
Everybody gots to boogie up in this party
Hope you ain't got nothing to do tonight
We're about to come and rock this party right
I wanna get to know you baby
If it's alright
I wanna see ya move your body for me all night
Want you get down, want you get down
I wanna get to know you baby
If it's alright
I wanna see ya move your body for me all night
Want you get down, want you get down
I wanna hit the dance floor, if you don't mind
You're the perfect honey to come and boogie with me
I gotta get you close enough to feel your heartbeat
It's your frame that makes me lose control
It's your vibe that makes me want you more and more
Whatever it is girl, don't stop
I promise I will take you all the way to the top
I wanna get to know you baby
If it's alright
I wanna see ya move your body for me all night
Want you get down, want you get down
I wanna get to know you baby
If it's alright
I wanna see ya move your body for me all night
Want you get down, want you get down
The time is right now, no second chance
For you and I this is the last dance
I know you want me, I see it in eyes, it's true
Give me all your numbers so I can reach out and touch you
It's your frame that makes me lose control
It's your vibe that makes me want you more and more
Whatever it is girl, don't stop
I wanna get to know you baby
If it's alright
I wanna see ya move your body for me all night
Want you get down, want you get down
I wanna get to know you baby
If it's alright
I wanna see ya move your body for me all night
Want you get down, want you get down
Everybody get your grove on in this party
Hope you ain't got nothing to do tonight
We're about to come and rock this party right
Everybody gots to boogie up in this party
Hope you ain't got nothing to do tonight
We're about to come and rock this party right

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.
