There are three days, and four nights to go
And I won’t be with you anymore
Four nights like this to go

In the trees like a freeway without wind
A devil howling, silent again

And the chill of that sheet
On your skin

We ain’t free my love
We are not our masters
Without side looks faster
Drowned and distanced

Rest and listen
As I cross these miles
I try to tell you “I love you”

The walk we take
In the rain today
Your feet in your boots
Under mine are the greatest

The way we refuse to be saved
The way we refuse to be saved
The way we refuse to be saved

    i am not entirely sure of the lyrics, but i know these above are incorrect... listen closer... correct mine where they arent exact.


    there are three days, and four nights to go and I won’t be with you anymore four nights like this to go

    and/in the trees, like a freeway with that wind a devil howling, silent again

    and the chill of that sheet on your skin

    we ain’t free my love we are not our masters the wind outside blows faster drowned in the distance

    for instance listen as I cross these miles try to tell you “I love you”

    the walk we take in the rain today your feet in your boots on the mud of the graves

    the way we refuse to be saved the way we refuse to be saved the way we refuse to be saved

    Sounds like "There's three days"..... "and the trees"... "the devil"... "the wind outside blows faster, and we're drowning in the distance"... "and try to tell you"...

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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
