This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
My wild child, your night light's on (My wild child, your night light's on)
You're in your mild depths, (You're in your mild depths)
The moon is on the lawn. (The moon is on the lawn)
Just make your friends (Just make your friends)
While you're still young, (While you're still young)
Before you can't see (Before you can't see)
Through anyone (Through anyone ah, ah, ah, ah)
And if you're trick-riding out in the rain, (In the rain, ah, ah, ah, ah)
Don't expect me to watch
And don't ask me to explain.
I'll be your friend, your last refuge (I'll be your friend, your last refuge)
When things get weird (When things get weird)
And weird breaks huge. (And weird breaks huge)
I'll stroke your hair, (I'll stroke your hair)
I'll dry your cheeks (I'll dry your cheeks)
When failures come (When failures come)
And no one speaks, (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
But if you're on a horse, (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
Trick-riding in the mud and rain, (Mud and rain, ah, ah, ah, ah)
You can't expect me to watch
Or ask me to explain.
But if you're on a horse, (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
Trick-riding in the mud and rain, (Mud and rain, ah, ah, ah, ah)
Don't make me watch
Don't ask me to explain (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
You're in your mild depths, (You're in your mild depths)
The moon is on the lawn. (The moon is on the lawn)
Just make your friends (Just make your friends)
While you're still young, (While you're still young)
Before you can't see (Before you can't see)
Through anyone (Through anyone ah, ah, ah, ah)
And if you're trick-riding out in the rain, (In the rain, ah, ah, ah, ah)
Don't expect me to watch
And don't ask me to explain.
I'll be your friend, your last refuge (I'll be your friend, your last refuge)
When things get weird (When things get weird)
And weird breaks huge. (And weird breaks huge)
I'll stroke your hair, (I'll stroke your hair)
I'll dry your cheeks (I'll dry your cheeks)
When failures come (When failures come)
And no one speaks, (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
But if you're on a horse, (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
Trick-riding in the mud and rain, (Mud and rain, ah, ah, ah, ah)
You can't expect me to watch
Or ask me to explain.
But if you're on a horse, (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
Trick-riding in the mud and rain, (Mud and rain, ah, ah, ah, ah)
Don't make me watch
Don't ask me to explain (Ah, ah, ah, ah)

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.

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.
Blue

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
