Causes and chances

When Pedro went out to his window
He didn't know, my love, he didn't know
that the light of that clear morning
was the light of his last day.
 
And the causes were surrounding him,
everyday, invisible.
And chance was getting tangled up,
powerful, invincible.
 
When Juan returned to his bed
He didn't know, oh, dear soul,
that in the rainy night and without a roof
the love of his life awaited him.
 
And the causes were surrounding him,
everyday, invisible.
And chance was getting tangled up,
powerful, invincible.
 
When this verse that I sing is finished.
I don't know, I don't know, mother mine,
if peace or terror awaits me,
if the the present, or the yet to come.
 
Well, the causes are surrounding me,
everyday, invisible.
And chance is entangling me
powerful, invincible.

All of them entirely
Go to sleep

Fell asleep

Fall asleep

Little Farm

A wave runs along the Sosik.
A Cossack urges his pony on.
He is hurrying to a farm, to a famstead
To visit his darling wife, sons and daughters
He is hurrying to a farm, to a famstead
To visit his darling wife, sons and daughters
 
Just outside Izmail and Constantinople
Bullets were flying like lead hail.
Horses were straining, pikes were snapping.
They hacked, they fought with resounding whooping
Horses were straining, pikes were snapping.
They hacked, they fought with resounding whooping
 
They carried Suvorov standards
Across the snow-capped Alps.
From the walls of Moscow to Paris
The Cossack din is heard afar
From the walls of Moscow to Paris
The Cossack din is heard afar
 
A wave runs along the Sosik.
A Cossack unharnesses his pony
Hello darling wife, sons and daughters
I have not been to the farmstead for a long time.
Hello darling wife, sons and daughters
I have not been to the farmstead for a long time.
Hello darling wife, sons and daughters
I have not been to the farmstead for a long time.
Hello darling wife, sons and daughters
I have not been to the farmstead for a long time.
 

In the Vineyard of Yemen

In Kerem Teiman the moon is shining
The wind is blowing pure
And here I am in my Shabbat dress
Sitting on the doorstep
 
My groom comes
Young with beautiful eyes
I sing to him
And he claps his hands
 
My heart is racing in my chest
Hush, don't wake my mom!
Don't worry, Tamar
Mom already knows
She already knows
 
Don't worry, Tamar
Mom already knows
She already knows
 
You will sit in our apartment, Tamar
As speaks your groom, Se'adya
And wear only expensive silk
And play what's on the radio
 
Eat pistachios
And play tunes for me
Both are nice
As you move with your bosom
 
Give me your hand to caress
Please don't wake my dad!
Don't worry, Tamar
Dad already knows
He already knows
 
Don't worry, Tamar
Dad already knows
He already knows
 
In Kerem Teiman the moon is shining
The wind is blowing pure
When our eyes connect
A flame ignites within me
 
My heart beats in me
Hold me and don't move
My head is spinning
And I don't know why
 
And my soul is shaking
And my heart is scared
Don't worry, Tamar
It will pass tomorrow
It will pass tomorrow
 
Don't worry, Tamar
It will pass tomorrow
It will pass tomorrow
 

My grandfather is a Cossack

My grandfather is a Cossack -
but what can I swear, brothers?
Yes, here's the saber I hung on the carpet.
I ask you not to doubt in any way:
My grandfather is a Cossack, by God, I'm not lying.
 
Eh, the Cossacks rode half the world,
and if it were necessary, they passed again,
and they have medals glittering on their chests,
and they have George's crosses on their chests.
And they have medals glittering on their chests,
and they have George's crosses on their chests.
 
But God forbid the dashing time will come.
and the Cossacks will suddenly be called to March again.
There is a ready combat saber for grandfather
and I know for sure that she will not let you down.
 
Eh, the Cossacks rode half the world,
and if it were necessary, they passed again,
and they have medals glittering on their chests,
and they have George's crosses on their chests.
And they have medals glittering on their chests,
and they have George's crosses on their chests
 
My grandfather is a Cossack, my father is a Cossack son.
I'm afraid to ride a horse.
Eh, anyway I'll become a grandfather someday
which means I will be a real Cossack.
 
Eh, the Cossacks rode half the world,
and if it were necessary, they passed again,
and they have medals glittering on their chests,

Auriga the Charioteer

'Eh! Just a moment, w-what? What’s the meaning of this?!'
'Jugemu Jugemu Gokō-no Surikire,
Erichthonius is I.'
'The real hero, Erichthonius, Lalafin will play him!'
'Per my fortune-telling, my victory is appearing!'
 
Hey visitor, can you hear the sound of the beating drum, it's the start of the performance
The 'don don don' comes, and after that now what's the time
The star performer's appearance, ha-hai!
 
The fool's wisdom YO! Focused governance HO!
How long have I been waiting, I can't become strong
'A miracle is something I make myself.'
 
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten
Knowledge helps oneself
 
To the person who does not act, God says
'I do not extend the hand of salvation'
The theater does not stop seeking
Where is the grand finale?
Unthinkable circumstances, driving the Auriga
Trying things even in a pinch
Will the stage end safely?
Watching protectively, Erichthonius
 
Let's knock our spirits against each other,
Daringly, begin the war atop the stage
 
Rakugo is surely the peak of intellect, from humor to tearjerkers
Cradle, graveyard, ironic, intermission bento,
Come what may, ha-hai!
 
Please cut it out YO! This is more chaotic than Seisho HO!
Chaos comes about, how about a mask of justice?
'From an awakening... transformation!'
 
From the ancient times of the creation of the universe
The future is engraved in one's hands
 
Move forward, don't give up by any means
Because 'a chance will someday come along'
The one standing in the center will be me only
Become my ally, spotlight
Unthinkable circumstances, driving the Auriga
Trying things even in a pinch
Will the stage end safely?
Watching protectively, Erichthonius
 
'Even though I say the curtain is rising, This is the state of affairs… not this kind of revue!'
 
I wonder if this seems as expected, I say this isn't a revue
That's not the case, 'In all knowledge there is potential'
 
The dawn of humanity
The curtain rising on the stage
The wide sky is merely one person's
In the world that you perform, you'll be made to drown
Aiyaiya aiyaiya aiyaiya-haha!
 
'Something like this song, it'll become a habit.'
'You're completely right~!!'
'I'm in high spirits!'
'This is the best!'
 
To the person who does not act, God says
'I do not extend the hand of salvation'
The theater does not stop seeking
Where is the grand finale?
Unthinkable circumstances, driving the Auriga
Trying things even in a pinch
Will the stage end safely?
Watching protectively, Erichthonius
 

Don't Leave Me Even a Single Sorrow

Versions: #1
The steam whistle blows so curtly.
'We're here already,' says the one journeying.
If I cry, it's painful. If I laugh, even moreso.
So don't leave me even a single sorrow.
 
Parting with your family, separating from your friend.
'Wherever I live, I will be me.'
You had best stop thinking like that.
Call yourself the wheel tracks of your life.
 
I loathe all these sad things,
and yet for us, it's only ever goodbyes.
Don't go anywhere,
live in this town forever.
Adding years on until we die,
I want us to live life laughing.
 
If you can, get out quietly please.
And don't leave me even a single sorrow.
 
The one journeying has such little baggage.
Such little homesickness and so few unforgettable memories too,
because he leaves everything behind at the starting station.
Aomori station is littered with sentiments.
 
'A dream is a dream,' he bragged.
But someone said that a dream is one because it's granted.
Don't lend an ear to those who've realized their dreams.
If it's your dream, then dream it.
 
I loathe all these painful things,
and yet we are only ever fighting.
Don't go anywhere,
live in this town forever.
Adding years on until we die,
I want us to live life laughing.
 
If you can, get out quietly please.
And don't leave me even a single sorrow.
 
You fighters, heal your wounds.
You must not fall mid-battle.
You say 'This life isn't so precious,'
but someone who holds you dear is right here.
 
The road before you is long, but the end will come quickly.
It's only from when you start hurrying that everything begins.
I don't know what'll happen from now on.
That's everything that I wanted to say.
 
I loathe all these lonesome things,
and yet we are only ever setting out on our journeys.
Don't go anywhere,
live in this town forever.
Adding years on until we die,
I want us to live life laughing.
 
The steam whistle is blowing, so I'm going to go too.
Don't leave me even a single sorrow.
Don't leave me even a single sorrow.
 

Fish Bowl

Versions: #1
The tracks in the railyard
creak like an asthmatic.
They sense that rain is close.
 
In the parking lot of a shopping mall,
Haru had sat on a bench
waiting for the ATM to open.
The sunrays were as they had been. At a wearisome volume,
jazz plays like it's from a music box.
Because it's aware that it has come to suit this town.
It's singing as much as it can.
 
We were filled with impatience.
Because we live in a fish bowl.
We were filled with fear.
Because we live in a smoke room.
 
We are neither impatient for nor fear today ending.
A new slate for a single day,
like it was traced by eye.
And we don't even stifle our yawns.
 
Would someone please cut the power to the air pump?
If not, then I'll do it.
 
Look, these are the edges of the world.
Shuttered down storefronts, orbital expressway Route 7.
The stadium rock flowing from the local radio
plays an exaggerated engine roar and was caught in a speedtrap.
 
The words 'Boredom isn't so bad'
can only be said after you've known something other than boredom.
And the signboard at the pachinko parlor,
that's the edge of our world.
 

Word Processor

Versions: #1
Caught in a blackout membrane.
Liberation movement for the
sensitivity that'd severed all brain activity, path to recapture.
The consequent solitary armed uprising.
 
With regards to whether to live or die,
counting backwards from the end, it's a suburban memento mori.
An alley of shuttered down shops, iron bridge on the outskirts of the city,
the spirits of our ancestors always stand watch.
 
My secondhand car keeps making a hundred thousand kilometers
worth of round trips on a highway from each word to the next.
If I keep nursing my dreams unfulfilled at the beach,
then even those will finally be seen through to the end.
 
If you are to bury my bones, then let it be in my hometown.
But the final resting place of my words is right here.
Ten years later, a hundred years later,
I'm confident that they're seeds that will bud somehow or another.
 
I sing the songs we were told not to sing.
I scream the words we were told not to speak.
It must be a passion strong enough to burn
those tears of defeat we once shed.
I glared at tomorrow as if to say 'Like I'd let it end here,'
and desperately shot down my impulse of annoyance.
Without calling it hope, what is it to be called?
 
Reality and fantasy weigh equally
and become a lead downpour. From the hole it opened in that chest
I can see your faded thing called tomorrow.
 
The word processor that kept speaking in mathematical formulas.
Even the shortest little line ripped out and thrown away,
now that some years have passed
at last it bores into even rock-like despair.
 
I sing the songs we were told not to sing.
I scream the words we were told not to speak.
It must be a passion strong enough to burn
those tears of defeat we once shed.
 
I glared at tomorrow as if to say 'Like I'd let it end here,'
and desperately shot down my impulse of annoyance.
Without calling it hope, what is it to be called?
 
I sing the songs we were told not to sing. My head spins.
 

Sunday Evenings

Now I'm scruffy, but
after paying my debts
probably I'll get more dresses new too
and probably you
won't like me again.
However, on sunday evenings
when I pass through your neighborhood,
with dressed up,
do you think that I'm gonna
appreciate you more than right now?
 

Spirits

Versions: #1
Hanging up the fantasies of his bygone days,
a sentimental teenager passes by a shadow on his way out.
 
His coat is wrapped around someone long-departed, and now the winds are all that lie ahead.
With frigid fingertips, he opens the door, leaves behind his lingering affection, and heads into town.
Downtown, he sees familiar faces and hears silent laughter. The city is deafeningly quiet.
His happiness recedes into the periphery of his awareness, as he trades it away for cheap pleasures.
He's been nursing all his small regrets for long enough to be sick of it,
and when he returns to his one-bedroom apartment, the apathetic setting sun
stirs all these feelings together, and he starts to see things unseen.
 
Spirits. Nightfall. Voicemails. An empty apartment.
 

If I Say Nenni

If I say nenni, will s/he will sleep?
I piled up roses upon him/her
Will my little one ever thrive?
Nenni, nenni my lamb, nenni
 
Baby's crib is made from glass
It fell and rolled down from the rooftop
His/her father is coming from Damascus
Nenni, nenni my lamb, nenni
 
I couldn't get through forests
I couldn't find my little one
I was not enough for her/him
Nenni, nenni my lamb, nenni
 
I have washed my baby
Then put her/him in on the rose branch
Now I have lost my hope
Nenni, nenni my lamb, nenni
 

ONIRIC

Lonely, Lonely. Something inside me has broke
Painful, Painful. Is it the sound of a soul hitting the ground?
Hollow, Hollow. I am walking through an empty cave
Long, Long. The path I was walking on until today has come to an end
 
It bloomed, It bloomed, The flower has bloomed
But the colors have faded as soon as i looked at it
My candle was blown away
Who was it? Who was it?
It bloomed, It bloomed, The flower has bloomed
Looking at it, the petals were falling
My candle was blown away
Have you seen it? Have you seen it?
 
It was a beautiful scream, it came from the other side
It was the last sound before the war. It was beautiful
The wind started blowing again, dust was flying
My heart started to shake, it was the beginning
 
It bloomed, It bloomed, The flower has bloomed
But the colors have faded as soon as i looked at it
My candle was blown away
Who was it? Who was it?
It bloomed, It bloomed, The flower has bloomed
Something fell on the ground with a loud noise
Everything started to look cold
Was it me? Aah, it was me
 
Aah...The flower has bloomed
The petals were painted with red blood
But blood was dripping down my hands
That.. that was my blood
Aah... The flower has bloomed
My body couldn't move anymore
The candle fell down and burned everything
But it was still freezing cold
 

Unbound

You still have got dreams man
In a golden sky
A bunch of jellyfish
Are dancing together
 
Have you ever been really unbound, man?
Like a horse, wildly
Running in the field and the wind
Runs in your hair
 
So you believe in miracles man
You believe that in this cold weather
A light will shine and then
The sun will warm everything
 
But I... I'm starting to get scared little by little
Sometimes I cry
I don't even have a clue
 
I'm hearing some voices man
They hang me from the head
Thousand times a day, they beat me up
Till I say I made a mistake
Till I say I've come a wrong way
Till I say I made a mistake
Till I say I've come a wrong way
 
Nope no no no
 
Do you see this lonely trails on the snow?
One day they'll be a road to a land
Which is full of light, full of light
A land that we can count on
Its sun in the afternoon
A land that we can count on its rainbow after the rain man
A rainbow full of colors, full of colors

Wooing the Angel

I'm here above the cloud
I'm captivated by a beautiful charming face
Never bored staring at it
I want to woo you, listen to me singing
 
Now I get what they say about angel
Since today when I meet you here
This must be heaven, I'm in heaven
Although only for a moment, when we meet
 
Soon, we will arrive shortly
Taking off dreams, greeting reality
Stepping foot on this ground
I will always remember the memory
 
Now I get what they say about angel
Since today when I meet you here
This must be heaven, I'm in heaven
Although only for a moment, when we meet
 
Now I get what they say about angel

Ordering you to get out

I suffered an accident, love
But I'm fine, I just got screwed, I just got screwed
Who gets beat a lot learns with the pain
My life was a cautionary tale, a cautionary tale
I'm now in a stage of life
That if someone threatens to leave
I'll open the door and show the exit
And I'll give the map with no return
Now I'm more cold and less sweet
I drank and love is over
 
I bought a scissor to cut our bond
With my hand out and waving
Ordering you to get out, get out, get out, get out
Ordering you to get out, get out, get out, get out
Ordering you to go ... La, la, la, la, la

Without You (I've lost my reason for living)

Without you
I've lost my reason for living
Without you
Slowly I feel closer to death
Without you
I can't smile, I only cry
I'm lost every time I wake up
I spend the nights without begin able to sleep
 
Without you
I don't have light in my eyes anymore
Without you
My soul has stopped dreaming
Without you
I'm living this pain of passion
Side by side with loneliness
And if you don't think about coming back
 
Chorus:
Without you, I'll continue in this lifeless life
Without you, love, my destiny is drift away
Without knowing about me, because I'm without you
 
Without you
I won't be the same no more
Without you
My days are all the same
Without you
I'll walk in the realms of pain
Gray will be my color
And if you don't ever come back
 
Chorus:
Without you, I'll continue in this lifeless life
Without you, love, my destiny is drift away
Without knowing about me, because I'm without you
 
Without you, I'll continue in this lifeless life
Without you, love, my destiny is drift away
Without you, I'll continue in this lifeless life
Without you, love, my destiny is drift away
Without knowing about me, because I'm without you
 
Because I'm without you
 

Rise up!

What could you even do?
Who would you give in to?
To the might, which puts you in line,
So you ponce for servileness,
To the imbecile, to the disdain,
For our reasoning.
 
Rise up my nation from the mire
I'll rip your chains with a song
 
We're expecting real peace,
But they hammer our dreams,
With the ocean of malice,
With the army of injustice,
Our hearts and minds are our weapon,
Go on about with their words
 
Rise up my nation from the mire
I'll rip your chains with a song
Rise up my nation from the mire
I'll rip apart your chains with a song
 
Apart,
apart,
apart
 
Rise up my nation from the mire
I'll rip your chains with a song
Rise up my nation from the mire
I'll rip apart your chains with a song
 
Rip
Apart,
Rip
I'll rip apart
 

The Guide Boy of Tormes / Lazarillo of Tormes

I was raised on Tormes river's riverbank
Theft kept me alive on this hostile land
My sad and poor mother handed me to a blind man
Who will become my master, and I, his hands
 
Our lives were owned by the picaresque
So cruel a life with no escape
The old man taught me the art of deception
And I felt strong with each passing day
 
Life's a battle
This luck we have to defeat
And when hunger strikes there's nothing else to lose
The blind man and the squire
The friar or the sheriff
They never gave me as much as I gave to them
 
Among alms, I was begging on the streets
With the avarice of whom never is satisfied
I left my masters because I didn't believe in miracles
And I bought a sword, but it was all in vane
 
I followed the path of losers
But I found a chore
I became a man of honor
The tale wanted me to marry the princess
But I always loved the maid
 
Life's a battle
This luck we have to defeat
And when hunger strikes there's nothing else to lose
The blind man and the squire
The friar or the sheriff
They never gave me as much as I gave to them
 
And now the books tell the story of my life
But to history, I was a loser
A futureless liar, lazy man, and miserable thief
But I fought against the misery
Of a century of gold that forgot
That what doesn't kill you makes you stronger and polishes the heart
 

Beach

Smells like summer, day wakes up earlier
Sun is beating down, it's getting saltier and saltier outside
And I'm at the beach, life is fonder here
It's getting out of control
 
Paddle boats floating, I see phantasms
I can't hear my name, at least they don't call me
Cause I'm at the beach, let no one look
They won't find me
 
[Refrain]
I want to lay on the sun
Watch mermaids
Smile at one of them at least
Life is hard
 
I won't look at news, I don't want papers
The ignorance is healing me, no alarm
I'm not leaving the beach
While I put on sunscreen, no one can touch me
 
Birds sing (lalalalala)
As I throw baits
I have new trunks
You won't recognize me
 
[Refrain]
I want to lay on the sun
Watch mermaids
Smile at one of them at least
Life is hard
 

The Angel has ...

The angel told the fully-blessed woman
Oh pure virgin, rejoice
and again I say, rejoice
as your son rose from the grave on the third day
light up, light up
Oh new Jeruselam
as God's glory has risen on you
Rejoice now and be happy oh Zion
and you pure mother of God
rejoice rejoice for your son's resurrection
 

Miserable

His atlas is a desert
There's a stiffen traveller that I hump set your eyes on him
We'd entered the jungle but our axe is blunt
We're petrified, we lost our way
Boo!
Nevertheless nobody got scared
Who backed the tyrant while his disaster was accustomed
He's kinda about to see the armageddon before time's up
There's neither blinds nor closed eyes
 
Seek help
The antiques come
They finger you up
Stole mastic for us
 
Crazy intriques
Come and flow to the mind
Night and spring to you
Leave me alone
 
In fact
Crime is integrated into life
Knuckleduster's in my hand
Don't fool around with the motherf*cker, as you see it's not a puppet
We'll attend and then we'll vomit into middle
 
We're gonna kick your ass for naught
Even if we loosen your leash noone's gonna say f*ck off
We're in the frame but they pose
Don't put us into gloom
 
We'd become miserable, that's enough
Our state is like sh*t it's always mournful for us
We'd become miserable, that's enough
Our state is like sh*t it's always mournful for us
We melt under the shadow of the captivity, dowdily
 
You're impertinent
If you're backslided, don't cry, you claimed that money's dirty
Someone laid mines here
We overcame the destiny, is it even a risk to us?
 
F*ck off swagger
Which one of you is the wit?
3 grams of wisdom and for sure that's been donated
In Turkish music my method is ugly
Of course it's time, I wish for y'all
 
Stone to our hands
Coyness to lover
Don't frighten the elephants, look at the one's you crushed
What kinda way is this? It's an intent to my youth
Good luck to our rod
Leave me alone
It's our turn, get up
 
We've been bored during the years
Although it didn't exist, they talked the idea,constantly
One hit wonder is in the bin now
I fetched a spear, my eyes on you
 
Am I someone to you?
Am I your enemy?
Am I a stranger?
 
Water's green, grasses are green
I feel desperate deeply, I am colourless
 
Water's green, grasses are green
My country's desperate, I am colourless
 

Zanı

[Gazapizm]
If my verdict of guilty has been given, appeal is unneeded
Your dreams are unnecessary
One day things will chance, even at no cost
And we will come one day having crossed all the obstacles
Cengiz, mysterious events will happen there
 
M-m-money, get up and call the police
Call the FBI, call the ambulance, call the fire station
Call, we've fallen to the dice again1
If only they let us, we'll make very radical decisions
 
If we were to race from Buca Heykel2 to Otokent via the highway
Ford Connect3 will sound the horn behind us
If only we could talk and bargain, who will make the contact?
We'll (have to) give a share out of nothing, he'll give us a run
 
And this is the disadvantage of fast life
We're barely different from Abuzer, also we're also citizen4
Shall we have lead poured5? I'm always in trouble!
Neither will we have a fortune, nor a salary
 
And then will there also be longing?
Your youthfulness will fade in teahouses6 at 20
And you'll become enemies with your loved one, with your neighborhood
No one will understand you, you will be left alone
 
Look up to the sky, open your eyes, stop missing
You're either a stray bullet or extortion at a corner
You don't have a family, what you call mansion is a park
Write 'justice' on a paper, burn it at a corner, burn

[Cash Flow]
Nowadays my temper and business are broken
Put your hands up, light up the haze on the highway
One day will come every Barack Obama will make the curse rain
And acid attack to your face
 
Our psychology has been deteriorated friends
They think A$AP Rocky is gangsta
But in the streets butchers7 pass by you
It's always the same fairy tales
 
What's up, man?!
Get up from my table immediately
If you twit me with your money, it will cost your safe box jsyk
I don't have a dog with me, if I had I would need a collar
 
Oh don't nudge me
I'll come with my brothers to hang you dogs
To Asia, to Europe, to NASA
Let's open fire, if you want, on the mafia
 
O word, comes out of mouth only once8
If you come to my house I'll shoot your father once and go
I would say 'my brother is in', let me cut your tongue that says rap
Don't make me crazy, give the streets back
 
Are we captives of money or substances?
Fuck the brain of the streets in your dream
What you call life is not all lavender and roses
Pick your friends wisely and don't trust anyone

[Boykot]
Close to the stars, far from the city
Trapped in a basement floor that corrodes dreams
There will be no morning, get up
Blood between the paving stones, the street lamp is burst
 
Get away from there, you shall run to the light
White Taurus9 on the left side street, flashing headlights, you'll be scared
It will horn as you sprint
Even if you're innocent they'll catch and shock you, you'll scream a little
 
Turn the corner, smile to the camera
Only action of the day, hide, your face will appear
Your hands in your pockets, you got nothing else, you're fearless
You will hear laughters, but there is nothing to laugh
 
If it so happens that you come to light
Your eyes will be dazzled, you will run back to the darkness
No picture in your dreams, there will be a loss of signal
You won't get rid of it even if you die, and it will be unfair
 
One day if we say we are defeated
Until that day those who refuse to run and get tired shall kneel down
Now the rope around our throat is stretched
Forward from this street, someone who will usurp that rudder
 
Note down all of these aside
One who does not wake up from heavy sleep only saves the day
They're doomed to a gloom after prison visit
Don't ever desire more than you need

[Zeze]
Let the darkness flash the brightness to your head
Sometimes you're timid, but sometimes a knife
You will run away, Çado will come and make a hole through you
He'll take your full cap from your head
 
Wiz Khalifa cannot enter Kuruçay
Diss cannot descend upon your head like a bullet
Therefore sit, bastard
Police is so silly to us
Your sole companion is in jail, so how come you're even here?
 
We're genius in the street, slap the big brothers
Salute the anarchist at Kızıldere, Tokat10
Accomodate in İzmir, in Kemeraltı, Konak
Get jumped by the glue-sniffer, do you even have medical insurance?
 
Cross the ball, Gazapizm, my bicycle kick from the pinnacle
We fly without wings at ease
You feel cold when you see (us)
The thing in our mouth you think is a fire monster is a joint
 
Nowadays solecistic consciousness, new invention
Somewhere around there the trouble finds you
My tour to the hell, fuck the money and asset
I'll make illegal money and wound the Richie Rich
(Then) I'll build houses here and there
 
Don't be the freeloader's pawn
My Solingen11 is ready for the match
(They) Turn a deaf ear to thieves
But arrest the students frogmarched
It scars my heart
My Mauser12 spits fire at the ignorant

Brown eyes

I look at the clouds
What was it, like then
Faith in happiness and love
I remember it again
 
Everything is long gone
We can't get anything back
We lost our happiness
Sadness appeared in my heart
 
Chorus:
I won't forget your brown eyes,
Your smile, a smile like a child's (2x)
 
I want to drown in your arms
Maybe that's enough for me
To feel your love
I feel good around you
 
I will always wait for you
I see your eyes
What so pierced my heart
You're responsible for that now
 
Chorus:
I won't forget your brown eyes,
Your smile, a smile like a child's (2x)
 

CONSUMPTION

At 3 A.M. I am getting off at the next station, what a common boring routine
A boring repetitive cycle, crying in pain and loneliness
Hello! I am not alive anymore so i take a deep breath again
When I will get up, I will sleep, get up again and repeat, I don't need this kind of thing
 
Leave your name behind, forget my voice
Tomorrow i will not be changed. But please, tell me one more time
 
The self-devouring pride is swallowing me
Why? Why? Why can't I laugh?
I was told to believe in God, but... where is he truly now?
Tell me, what kind of death do you wish for?
 
The adults are fighting. The children are crying
Who's fault is it? Who's fault? That now people are dying
Why? Why? Is it just like this. I don't want this kind of life
Even if it's melting, fading away and disappearing
All of the feelings, I want them gone
 
Leave your name behind, forget my voice
Tomorrow i will not be changed. But please, tell me one more time
 
The self-devouring pride is swallowing me
Why? Why? Why can't I cry?
I was told not to believe in the Devil. But what did he do wrong?
Tell me, what kind of death do you wish for?
 
The self-devouring pride is swallowing me
Why? Why? Why can't I laugh?
I was told to believe in God, but... where is he truly now?
Tell me, what kind of death do you wish for?
 

My Mother, My Mother

My mother, my mother, what did I have
I dreamed of pigeons
 
A wave passed me
My soul is chanting
My soul is chanting
A wave passed me
My soul, my soul
My soul is chanting
My soul is chanting
My soul is chanting
 
My mother, my mother, what did I have
 
A pair of pigeons (1)
A beak and a beak
A beak and a beak
Suddenly I got light
Hovering, hovering
I flew in the light
I flew in the light
I flew in the light (2)
 

Just Friend

Without any innocence, you replied and kissed me,
softly, playing like an adult.
The words after “you see,” I was sure would be “I love you.”
How come you took so long to decide not to say it?
 
I don’t want to keep going in circles.
 
It will all end here if I want to tell you “I love you.”
So long friend, because I’m not going to turn back.
It’s you who broke me, and we couldn’t laugh at each other.
Just Friend, why did you kiss me?
 
I remember that day when you softly kissed me
everytime I see you on the bus going home.
You laughed at me right in my face, like it was nothing.
I will never forget it.
 
Since then, I was defeated.
 
I’m the same, because I still want to tell you “I love you.”
So long friend, because I’m not going to turn back.
I always thought I wouldn’t care if I was broken.
Just friend, it hurts turning my back on you.
 
Why is it so painful being just friends?
Even if you love someone else, I was happy.
 
It will all end here if I want to tell you “I love you.”
So long friend, because I’m not going to turn back.
Yeah, you push me away, and it was only me who cried.
Just Friend, why did you…
 
It will all end here if I want to tell you “I love you.”
So long friend, because I’m not going to turn back.
It’s you who broke me, and we couldn’t laugh at each other.
Just Friend, why did you kiss me?
 

He/She doesn't come back to me

İ wish he/she came back to me one day,exhausted and the regretful
İ kneel down and cry,to my gratitute prayers
The sin of the lover which is the easiest forgiveness
The curse of the anyone don't stay in anyone
İf only he/she said 'i came' to me,if only he/she give life to me
He/she can't give me the days that pass
 
My everythings has changed,i have been hurt and come to an end
İ'm not how i used to be,even though he/she saw,he/she can't know
 

Old days to forget

My throat is dry
They're waiting for me at the end of the street
If they ask for me someday, you keep your mouth shut
Your hands are full of blood, because of steel doors
What missing if longing exists in the nature of guilt?
 
Compassion of poor people is extortion
Guitar in his hand
Always waiting with tears in his eyes
Grief on his shoulders
One day these people will kick the scales
We are witnesses to the chaos
We will present it first
 
I will realize from my voice that I've grown old
Or from the fact that I've written lyrics with intention of farewell
There will be left nothing but crumbs from my ugly desires and love for you
And this will happen alone
 
If you don't hear those people who get burnt more than you
How can we be friends?
We will be left with a handful of debt
And a cheerful rose will bloom in the parks
 
Old days to forget
Upcoming days to enjoy
There are such days
Believe me!
'Life is just lie and waste of time.'
shouldn't be your last words
 
We got stuck in the winter of shame
and got tricked by applause
We woke up into such weary and awful mornings
One of my dream is hidden in your eyes
No one is leaving the future and nothing is expected from it anymore
 
Besides, I always told it, you know?
I said, 'He has no tongue.
He has no one.
He has no joy and no dream.'
He said, 'Let your shoulders fall.
What's the point of poetry and song?
Nothing changes.'
It's not like that at all, there must be a solution!
Have we sacrificed our sleep all these nights for nothing?
Think all those people who suffered and wiped their eyes
His dream is in tatters
 
Old days to forget
Upcoming days to enjoy
There are such days
Believe me!
'Life is just lie and waste of time.'
shouldn't be your last words
 
We got stuck in the winter of shame
and got tricked by applause
We woke up into such weary and awful mornings
One of my dream is hidden in your eyes
No one is leaving the future and nothing is expected from it anymore
 
What kind of love in the present order?
All you comfort yourself with is false, you're fake
What's left?
There is a life I dream about and fears I am ashamed of
When I have set my heart on
and understood a nation
 
You have the insomnia now
They clear their consciences
If you are hungry, looting is considered rebellion
A mother's farewell is the real definition of separation
Winning is dirty so let's lose and be human
 
Imagine a huge meal in the middle of the neighborhood
In the middle of the world
The suns would make it bigger above us
Bourgeois dreams remain after the lies
 
How much people appreciate good songwriters?
I stole these flowers from graveyard
I have lied next to multinational solitude
Sky is full of stars
 
Old days to forget
Upcoming days to enjoy
There are such days
Believe me!
'Life is just lie and waste of time.'
shouldn't be your last words
 
We got stuck in the winter of shame
and got tricked by applause
We woke up into such weary and awful mornings
One of my dream is hidden in your eyes
No one is leaving the future and nothing is expected from it anymore
 

Boil My Cauldron, Boil

Boil up my cauldron, boil up
Cut crunchy the serpent
Dragon's skin
Decayed witch bone
 
Sorrow over sorrow
Boil my cauldron, we'll boil
Sorrow over sorrow
Boil my cauldron, boil
Sorrow over sorrow
Boil my cauldron, boil!
Boil my cauldron, boil!
 

You’ll Be Proud (Of Me)

I accept I’m no good
I accept I’m incapable
But still , for once
Please just trust me
 
Give me a chance to prove
To show you, that I can stand tall
 
Everyone will be so proud
And I’ll be unstoppable
You’ll have to trust me
I will never give up
I will save the day
And come back here triumphantly
Maybe then you will realize that
I am not such a failure
 
Sure, I've made lots of mistakes
And I know that,I've disappointed you
Still, whatever it takes
I promise,I'm gonna fix it
I’ll win your hearts(love) back
Even if I have to die
 
I will make you proud
I will make you have faith in me
I will prove that the way I used to be is all in the past
 
I am filled with so much enthusiasm
And will only return here triumphantly
You will be amazed,to see your son rising at last
The pride in your eyes
When you’ll see all new me
