He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.
I'm standing on a hilltop
A hundred miles from home
I can see the light surrounds me
I want you to show me round
I'm standing here
I really don't think you could know
That I'm in heaven when you smile
I'm drifting through the city
I'm swinging from a tree
I can touch but you can't feel me
You hear me as you sleep
I'm standing here
I really don't think you could know
That I'm in heaven when you smile
And I'm everywhere
I really don't think you could know
That I'm in heaven when you smile
But I don't think you think like I do
No matter how how hard I try
I always thought I'd have the answer
Let me tell you what I've got
I'm looking through your window
I might just have the key
Over me my free-fall baby
You hear me as you speak
I'm standing here
I really don't think you could know
That I'm in heaven when you smile
I'm standing here
I really don't think you could know
That I'm in heaven when you smile
But I'm everywhere
I really don't think you could know
That I'm in heaven when you smile
But I don't think you think like I do
No matter how how hard I try
I always thought I had the answers
Let me tell you what I've got
Oh let it rot I made them stop
I could park a juggernaut in your mouth
And I can feel a hurricane when you shout
I should be safe forever in your arms
I should be safe forever in your arms
I could park a juggernaut in your mouth?
And I can feel a hurricane when you shout
I should be safe forever in your arms
I should be safe forever in your arms
A hundred miles from home
I can see the light surrounds me
I want you to show me round
I'm standing here
I really don't think you could know
That I'm in heaven when you smile
I'm drifting through the city
I'm swinging from a tree
I can touch but you can't feel me
You hear me as you sleep
I'm standing here
I really don't think you could know
That I'm in heaven when you smile
And I'm everywhere
I really don't think you could know
That I'm in heaven when you smile
But I don't think you think like I do
No matter how how hard I try
I always thought I'd have the answer
Let me tell you what I've got
I'm looking through your window
I might just have the key
Over me my free-fall baby
You hear me as you speak
I'm standing here
I really don't think you could know
That I'm in heaven when you smile
I'm standing here
I really don't think you could know
That I'm in heaven when you smile
But I'm everywhere
I really don't think you could know
That I'm in heaven when you smile
But I don't think you think like I do
No matter how how hard I try
I always thought I had the answers
Let me tell you what I've got
Oh let it rot I made them stop
I could park a juggernaut in your mouth
And I can feel a hurricane when you shout
I should be safe forever in your arms
I should be safe forever in your arms
I could park a juggernaut in your mouth?
And I can feel a hurricane when you shout
I should be safe forever in your arms
I should be safe forever in your arms

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
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.
They've got so many good songs. Could potentially have been so much bigger than they were.
