Here in this prison of my own making
Year after day I have grown
Into a hero, but there's no worship
Where have they hidden my throne?
I'm alone here
With emptiness, eagles and snow
Unfriendliness chilling my body
And taunting with pictures of home
Somebody's shouting up at a mountain
Only my own words return
Nobody's out there, it's a deception
When will I ever learn?
Wandering blindly, how can they find me?
Maybe they don't even know
My body is shaking, anticipating
The call of the black footed crow
Prof. Dr. Halil İnalcık:
“Tanzimat'tan sonra Türk aydınları, azınlık liderlerine yalvarırdı:
‘Gelin; Ermeni, Kürt, Rum, Arnavut yerine Osmanlıyız diyelim.’
Kabul ettiremediler. Türkler hariç, hepsi etnikçilik yaptı.
Ne zaman ki Cumhuriyet kuruldu ve Atatürk, ‘Büyük Türk Milleti’ diye ortaya çıktı; hepsi ağız değiştirip Osmanlıcı kesildi.”
You mean that's all you are?
A musician?
I got one thing. Same as you.
I know that limp.
I know the empty ring finger.
And that obsessive nature of yours, that's a big secret.
Like a startling sign
That fate had finally found me
And your voice was all I heard
That I get what I deserve
So give me reason
To prove me wrong
To wash this memory clean
Let the floods cross
The distance in your eyes
Give me reason
To fill this hole
Connect this space between
I'm madly in anger with you
And I want my anger to be healthy
And I want my anger just for me
And I need my anger not to control
And I want my anger to be me
And I need to set my anger free
I would say we loved each other too much. Too much. And I think we made the mistake of getting it right the first time and that put an insane amount of pressure on us to keep it going. And.. We buckled.
The gardener plants an evergreen
Whilst trampling on a flower.
I chase the wind of a prism ship
To taste the sweet and sour.
The pattern juggler lifts his hand,
The orchestra begin.
As slowly turns the grinding wheel
In the court of the crimson king.
I don't know who to trust, no surprise
Heavy thoughts sift through dust and the lies
Trying not to break, but I'm so tired of this deceit
Every time I try to make myself get back up on my feet
And how trying to put my trust in you just takes so much out of me
There are no unnameable names, There are no impossible dreams, there are no invisible seams
Each night when the day is through
I don′t ask much
I just want you
Suyun kaynak olduğu
Ağaç kökün saldığı
Eşin dostun gittiği
Yerde bulursun beni
Yolun ayrıldığı
Gidenin dönmediği
Çarenin olmadığı
Yerde bekliyorum seni
I remember a time
My frail, virgin mind
Watched the crimson sunrise
Imagined what it might find
Life was filled with wonder
I felt the warm wind blow
I must explore the boundaries
Transcend the depth of winter's snow
Found you there in the blink of an eye
I miss you
Turned away into a thousand dreams
Found out what they mean
Lost you there in a moment of truth
I trust you
Gave away the one and only heart
A gift to tear apart
Stain me, Save me
Take me to my home
If I let you, you would make me destroy myself
In order to survive you, I must first survive myself
And I can sink no further and I cannot forgive you
Hatred keeps me alive
Hungriness keeps me alive
Weakness keeps me alive
Guilt keeps me alive at the bottom
