You're boned like a saint
With the consciousness of a snake

You're the kind of girl
I'd like to find
Face like an angel
But you're boned like the devil

Your eyes have shifted from me
Everyone saw what you did
You have slipped from beneath me
Like a false nervous squid

Oh, no more horses, horses
We're going to swim like a fish
Into the hole in which you planned to ditch me
My lovely
Vera Marie

Planned to leave me cold
But you'll never get your wish
On the twenty fourth of May

I gather up your reins
You filled me with a vengeance
And you touched me with your breath
I'm gonna pull you from this dance
You're gonna ride so easily

Oh, no more horses, horses
We're going to swim like a fish
Into the hole in which you planned to ditch me
My lovely
Vera Marie

Hey! Come on, Vera
Oh, no more horses, horses
We're going to swim like a fish
Into the hole in which you planned to ditch me
My lovely
Vera Marie

I was your victim
I was well deceived
Hell's built on regret
But I love your naked neck
And evil lies that you told me
Made me believe you're two-faced
But there's two faces have you
And they're both gonna jump

Oh, no more horses, horses
We're going to swim like a fish
Into the hole in which you planned to ditch me
My lovely
Vera Marie

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

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.
