Breakin' The Chains Of Love

Fitz & the Tantrums

I've been trying, to get you
To see things all my way
For the days that since you've left me
And I know that you probably keep away

I said
Oh what a lovely day
Breaking the chains of love
I'm hoping that you won't find a new love
Cause I know baby you're mine

Can't you see that you're mine
Oh, can't you see, can't you see that you're mine

You been lying and cheating
Fooling around, messing around all of the time
No way I'm gonna find you
You're making me god damn pay

I said
Oh what a lovely day
Breaking the chains of love
I'm hoping that you won't find a new love
Cause I know baby you're mine

I've been trying, to forget you
The pictures, they don't fade
For the days that since you've left me
And I know that these tears won't wipe away

I said
Oh what a lovely day
Breaking the chains of love
I'm hoping that you won't find a new love
Cause I know baby you're mine

Can't you see that you're mine
Oh, can't you see, can't you see that you're mine
Oh baby I know that you're mine
Can't you see that you're mine
Oh, can't you see, can't you see that you're mine

    Wow...this song goes back a few summers. It was the first song that opened my eyes to song lyrics. I thought I loved this song so long ago, but little did I know I wouldn't get the ending I thought was sure to come. I should have run when Fitz sang this song; I would have avoided a great deal of pain. Still like the song and the artist, though.

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

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.
