This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Within half an hour you'll
Be gone and I won’t see you anymore
You left my love on the line
And said that you were leaving
And you won’t come home again (x2)
And I’ll miss you like you’re dead
But I never got to grieve you
Cause I saw you
In the arms of someone new
So your phantom follows me
Like a child would his mother
Or a lover who never said goodbye
So this is goodbye
And I cry myself to sleep
And you thought I was happy
I was lonely
And had nowhere to go
And I heard that you moved on
Found a brand new family
And changed your married name
And everything has changed
And I’ll miss you like you’re dead
And find a way to grieve you
Cause I need to
Try and start again
And your ghost will have to leave
Like a child would his mother
Or a lover
Who has to say goodbye
And so this is goodbye
So this is goodbye
So this is goodbye
Goodbye
So this is goodbye
So this is goodbye
So this is goodbye
So this is good..(distortion)
Be gone and I won’t see you anymore
You left my love on the line
And said that you were leaving
And you won’t come home again (x2)
And I’ll miss you like you’re dead
But I never got to grieve you
Cause I saw you
In the arms of someone new
So your phantom follows me
Like a child would his mother
Or a lover who never said goodbye
So this is goodbye
And I cry myself to sleep
And you thought I was happy
I was lonely
And had nowhere to go
And I heard that you moved on
Found a brand new family
And changed your married name
And everything has changed
And I’ll miss you like you’re dead
And find a way to grieve you
Cause I need to
Try and start again
And your ghost will have to leave
Like a child would his mother
Or a lover
Who has to say goodbye
And so this is goodbye
So this is goodbye
So this is goodbye
Goodbye
So this is goodbye
So this is goodbye
So this is goodbye
So this is good..(distortion)

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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
This song is so sad. To me, the meaning is pretty simple: he's trying to find a way to move on from a terrible, but inevitable break up/divorce and make a new life for himself. He's finding it extremely difficult because he didn't really get a chance to say goodbye, or get closure.
"within half an hour you'll be gone and i won't see you anymore"
FINALLY
It should be "So this is goodbye" rather than "It's always say goodbye"
the first line is: "Within half an hour you'll be gone and I won't see you anymore."
the next line is: "You left my love on the line..."
Such a great song. His words are so smooth they give me chills.
I think its about how his lover just left him really unexpectedly. He clearly is also still in love with this person, never got any closure, or any reasons/explanations. "so, this is goodbye". Since he never got any answers, what else can he do? Its goodbye, its the end. But the persons ghost still haunts him, but he forces himself to get over them. For the good of himself. Cause hanging on the that one person, especially after they are really truly gone, is only hurting yourself.
Its a sad thing that he's going through, and I definitely don't wish is upon no one! Very great song!
The thing never now, were you you're gone and I wont see you anymore
You left my love on the line and said that you were leaving And you wont come home again And you wont come home again
And I'll miss you like your dead but I never got to grieve you cause I saw you in the arms of someone new so your phantom follows me like a child would his mother or a lover who never said goodbye so this is goodbye
And I'll cried myself to sleep and you thought I was happy I was lonely and had nowhere to go and I heard that you moved on and found a brand new family and changed your married name and everything has changed
And I'll miss you like your dead find a way to grieve you cause I need to try and start again and your ghost will have to leave like a child would his mother or a lover who has to say goodbye
so this is goodbye so this is goodbye so this is goodbye so this is goodbye so this is goodbye so this is goodbye
I think Fitzsimmons deliberately blurs the line between the love shared among lovers and the love shared among parents and their children. This sounds strange, but I think it's effective in conveying the level of abandonment he feels and emotional vulnerability he is/was open to. The song might also speak to a pattern of abandonment and trust issues, which can be highlighted by the line: "it's always say goodbye". I think the song can be purposely read from either perspective for those reasons.
