Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
We were seventeen and invincible
Had the world figured out and a girl on my shoulder
Told me, "Everything's gonna be alright"
Whoa oh
And everything was gonna be alright
Whoa oh
Yeah, maybe we were in high school
But you never see the ending when you're young and love pretending
Singing, "Everything's gonna be alright"
Whoa oh
Everything was gonna be alright
Buried her deep inside
Stars stuck in my eyes
Now she's got a boyfriend
And I've got a rock band
Cause nothing really ever goes the way it's planned
Yea she's in Ohio
And I'm on some back road
Driving to the city and then, who knows?
Cause that's all, she wrote
Wish that I could turn this car around
But she's got a boyfriend now
And I took a trip out to LA
For the girl with a smile that could take your breath away
I'm thinking, everything's gonna be alright
Whoa oh
And everything was gonna be alright
Whoa oh
Maybe I thought I could sneak in
And sweep her off her feet and go right back to Boston
Thinking everything's goin' be alright
Whoa oh
And everything was gonna be alright
These streets keep holding on
But now she's so far gone
Now she's got a boyfriend
And I've got a rock band
Cause nothing really ever goes the way it's planned
Yeah, she's on the West Coast
And I'm on some back road
Driving to the city and then, who knows?
Cause that's all, she wrote
Wish that I could turn this car around
But she's got a boyfriend now
Take me back to you somehow
With everything that I know now it's so hard
I tore us apart
Take me back to feeling like the world
Would just keep dealing me the right cards
Now you're just so far
And I'm twenty-three and invincible
Got the world figured out and a bird on my shoulder
Told me, "Everything's gonna be alright"
Whoa oh
And when is everything gonna be alright?
And now she's got a boyfriend
And I've got a rock band
Cause nothing really ever goes the way it's planned
Yeah, she's in Ohio
And I'm on some back road
Driving to the city and then, who knows?
Cause that's all, she wrote
I wish that I could turn this car around
Cause there she goes
I wish that I could press rewind somehow
But she's got a boyfriend now
Whoa
Whoa
(She's got a boyfriend now)
Whoa
Whoa
(She's got a boyfriend now)
Take your
Take your
Breath, breath, breath, breath, away
Take your
Take your
Breath, breath, breath away

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri

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 still like "two is better than one".... =) ha.ha
