Without a crime, returning from an autopsy morning
Shaking off your anger, two steps away from you
The boulevard that is from your neck to your chest
Buildings falling over at Acıbadem Station
No! Lip's share. My soul is torn, split
Fate is mud, say we're left apart
Don't hide! The road is dirt, time is cruel
My state's a relic of the fires of oblivion
Objects are for unity, things are objective
Mankind doesn't get old, slaughtered the Eskimo
Sheds blood, doesn't give directions to the heart
With time felt heavy, my bracelet of water
Doesn't show light of day, a blind fly screen on my window
I was a dull knife. If only you hadn't buried me
If only you had let me say my last words
You would look for and find me had you really missed
The ground is unstable
You'll have to watch out
Despite the beauty
Of the flooring
The ground is unstable
You'll have to avoid
Walking on it now
It'll make you fall
Actually I am surprised
It's been years since the bullet you fired and what it caused
My crippled mind
Me laying beside you, hitting rock bottom
You erasing my voice, shortening my song
You were the cigarette I lit after leaving the faculty
Not even my sword could parry this love
How can horses race death
If only it hadn't been like this
We always would uspet each other
All our order was so in disorder
You would seal your lips, cry and sulk
Believe me, you were too beautiful to touch
O the contradiction that hurls that cruel doubt at my temple
O the crowd that disperses when I hold her hand
I see a respected officer when I look at the sky
Leaving aside my arrogance of a thug
It's hard to hate who the soul wants to love
You're like a tree without her, you have no relatives
Ask for how many districts, how many stops you can cry
How many belongings rise up, how many women are forbidden
Your love is seized the first thing, your wisdom the last
Crack of dawn, dizziness of a slap on my face
My room is empty, say the war ended today
Would it kill if you took your steps back
You know life is beautiful in some sense
Like narrow streets, old friends posing
Like a Mercedes, like turqoise, like summer
Like an extra letter, like a last chance
The ground is unstable
As much as the ocean
Whatever, what matters
Is here now
The ground is unstable
But happiness is patient
Come hell or high water
Will we turn
The ground is unstable
As much as the ocean
Whatever, what matters
Is here now
The ground is unstable
But happiness is patient
Come hell or high water
Will we make the weather turn
