Pictures

The love you gave to me was a ray of sunshine,
It was spring, and from the beginning you liked me.
But when it rained one night until dawn broke,
You betrayed me without shame, even though I had loved you so much.
 
Burn the pictures and keep the ash
I have such a large grudge against you,
I have such a large grudge against you.
 
You opened a window into my dreams,
With your heart and your body, you tolerated me,
But whatever I felt, you didn't feel it,
And like a thief, you left, even though I had loved you so much.

Except for myself

It was something like a sign when their elbows locked
I asked you how it happened,
And you told me, 'with a needle'.
 
I thought it was going to hurt,
You're telling me that it hurts now
I saw you become stressed as time passed by.
 
Except for myself, I'm yelling
For a single moment of this pale life.
 
I remember nights when you were cold,
Even if it were summer.
You marked moments of hate on the wall with a knife.
 
Your friends pushed you round and round,
Two on the inside and one on the outside
And they always sent me away,
But maybe I'll get tangled up with you.

I saw it in my sleep

I saw it in my sleep and I was hit with a spell of dizziness,
Some crows were burying Greece.
And I felt humiliation and shame inside,
If I hadn't woken up, I would have had a heart attack. 1
 
Since mankind isn't ashamed, they don't have a drop of dignity, they don't redden,
A people, such a people, how can they tolerate it?
How they taunt others and nobody swears at them.
 
Since mankind isn't ashamed, they don't have a drop of dignity, they don't redden,
A people, such a people shouldn't be like this,
They will rot in their misery and fear.
 
I saw it in my sleep and I tried not to stay 2
I wanted to be like Alexander the Great fighting the barbarians
And I felt an unspeakable anger inside me,
Because of all that is happening shamelessly in this world.
 
Since mankind isn't ashamed, they don't have a drop of dignity, they don't redden,
A people, such a people, how can they tolerate it?
How they taunt others and nobody swears at them.
 
Since mankind isn't ashamed, they don't have a drop of dignity, they don't redden,

You tore it into pieces

You're telling me that you don't want my love,
That whatever you had with me was completely repulsive.
You're telling me that you don't want to touch me ever again,
And that you want to hide my light forever 1
 
You're telling me that you're going to go far away from me,
Then maybe you should fill my empty heart.
And here I am, shouting, 'What am I supposed to do?'
You're telling me that I will always lose those whom I love.
 
You tore my entire life to pieces,
And I have tears in my eyes from your soul.
You tore my body into pieces,
And grand dreams 2 remained in the dirt.
 
You're telling me that it's not worth it for you to stay near me,
You're opening the door and leaving me alone.
You're telling me that you're going to throw fire on my life 3
And maybe then you'd be mine alone.
 
You're telling me a thousand words that all judge me
Your eyes are now so far away that they're leaving me alone.
And if everything ended and I felt any pain,
You've forever bound me to you like a slave.

Difficult road

Things are changing every time 1
And the one who looks like a winner is the one who is lost 2
And you, who sends my letters back to me,
You say that you've written me out of your life 3
A day will come when you'll remember me.
 
You've always chosen a difficult road, my love 4
And all your loves will be a lie.
The knife of you leaving doesn't hurt me,
I'm sorry for all the years I've lost. 5
 
I donated all the debts you left me,
I only kept a single complaint for myself
And even if you left with such ungrateful words,
They're just like how I was nothing with you,
A day will come when you'll remember me.

Hard times

Hello,
I'm here to take you beyond, into the air,
And I pull the trigger with one of my lyrics as a bullet. 1
 
I'm concerned,
Because I'm envisioning my future differently,
I'm experimenting in a notebook without financing a thing,
And I've put myself in prison 2
 
If you become addicted to what they're offering you 3
And you embrace the views they'll bring you 4
Another life, another generation without a choice, without ideals.
 
I'll accept it, I know I'll welcome it
But I won't come to terms with it,
I'll live and barely tolerate it.
 
Hard times, who am I supposed to depend on?
Unknown gods made a believer out of me.
 
I'm philosophizing,
I'm changing the meaning of wisdom to save myself,
And in this random world I'm crying, I'm shouting with all my power
They're forcing me to see each flaw, I want a life immune from this
But I've taken a stance that they don't like
My morale won't fall. 5
 
And if I've entitled my season to be barren, it's because of my self-interest and destiny now
It happened not for you, not for me, but for nobody.
 
But I'm not going to be part of the masses
I'm not one of these dogs 6
I'm not merchandise with a proposal of divestment in the name of globalisation 7
 
Hard times, who am I supposed to depend on?
Unknown gods made a believer out of me.

Me and loneliness

Me and loneliness are companions on this road they call life
And this road is going to be a slope 1
Because you aren't by my side.
 
You were a one-of-a-kind love for me and my affection grew
For me, you were the beginning, and you were the end!..
The moment you left, my heart became desolate,
We will be the only two left in this world, me and my loneliness...
 
Me and loneliness became one,
All around me is isolation, because I didn't find another one like you...
With you, nobody compares...

You didn't make a good estimate

The body is lonely, the mind is dizzy
It is making pictures in the night from smoke again
Even if I am afraid of such great power, I'm hiding in my soul
But I have the strength to stand on your north 1
 
You didn't make a good estimate, I loved you so much,
But I won't spend my life on memories.
You didn't make a good estimate,
You will never step on my aggrieved heart on the road again.
 
You always had a reason for me to bleed,
Now I'm confessing to all my sins in the darkness.
You always were waving a flag for your ego,
You thought I wasn't there, but look how I live.
 
I'm not hoping for anything else, I'm not insisting on anything, either
The fires of your soul will traumatise me,
I can see it declining year by year.

I don't think so

I have a big complaint to make,
I spent so much time by your side 1
But no matter how much I showed you, you learned nothing.
 
Spite, envy, and hyperboles, and you never ask where you want it from,
And whenever you look me in the eyes,
Don't tell me lies.
 
I'm erasing them all, I'm forgetting them
And I'm breaking away
 
I'm continuing my life down below
 
You're not going to do whatever you want to me,
I don't think so.
 
Only I will define my life. 2
 
I have a big complaint to make,
That I'm crying and in pain every night.
But no matter how much I asked of you, you gave me nothing.
 
I don't care about your apology, and your passion is just making me angry.
And with all that you did to me, you killed our love.

You're walking thoughtfully again tonight,
You're trapped in her nets again, and you can't resist
You're approaching madness, my friend, you've been driven delirious by her heart.
 
The woman in your life is a mystery, and she will always remain a mystery.
She gives you a jab 1 so you'll drink poison, and after she'll resurrect you with one of her kisses.

You won't be able to avoid her form

This will say 'love'

If I asked for it, I would have changed the heavens, the sea, and the entire world
So you could have your moon.
I would have made the world from scratch for your favour
And I would have put the sun in your hands, in your stars, in a single moment.
 
This will finally say 'love'
You'll make the weak strong
You'll give and never ask for anything
This will show, my love, that you can love.
 
I could become a god
I could make the darkness into light
Never come crying to me
I will make sense out of madness
I will make lyrics, I'll make music
I'll make a song for you to sign
I've lost it, what can I say?
I love you so, so much
Ask me whatever you want.

Listen, friend

Listen, friend, I was never the devil's lawyer
In a country that breaks the law, without shame
I'm not willing to settle for a shitty life 1
 
Listen friend, I don't want to participate in this scene anymore
I only have one love left out of all the old ones
They hurt her, too, and I can't take it anymore.
 
It's getting dark, friend, and I'm afraid of where the afterlife will put us 2
How can I sleep at night, when I have my eyes open?
 
It's getting dark, friend, and I'm afraid that there's nowhere to go
And that, even if a new day dawns, I will see nothing but darkness.

I'll become wasted if necessary, I'll donate my soul
But now, the time has come for me to break my silence.

I'm going to purge you from my mind

I purged you from my life,
I purged you from my heart,
And whenever I want to sleep, you won't come into my dreams.
I purged you from my body, so that you wouldn't burn me in the night,
I purged you so that I might escape from your magic touch.
 
But I can't purge you from my mind, because you're something strong,
Something so big.
 
I left to escape, to break your bonds
I left to quiet down my lazy heart
Maybe I returned to the streets to erase you,
And I swore a thousand oaths to never kiss you again.
 
But I can't purge you from my mind, because you're something strong,
Something so big.

I'm enduring a lot

Kiss by kiss, I gathered your love
Up high, stair by stair, you're throwing me down
You're a frigid threat, and even though I adore you,
You're asking for yet another chance because of a sin

My love for you is crazy

When I'm with you, I want to be wherever you take me

Gloomy afternoon

I remembered you on a gloomy afternoon,
I thought about how we spent time and missed it.
With my memories of you, I live in tyranny 1
But believe me: I love you, I'm not pushing you away.

And every gloomy afternoon I remember you.
The tears, the yearning, and the complaints all capture me, and I wish that my life would be over.

Cherish it

Versions: #3
Black hair and black eyes
You tear an army into pieces 1
In the middle of a noose for the damned, I'm lost with a single kiss. 2
 
Cherish them, cherish them,
Cherish your eyes.
It's not worth it for me to die in front of your stairs. 3

Why do I vote, because I don't set rules in my life?
I excommunicate politicians and overpaid priests
Why do I vote, is it to be a pawn on their chessboard?

Because of the sword, I let out a cry, and war begins
The light of heaven 1 has gone out, and the beast awakens.
 
Why do I vote, for them to make me hope in a lie?
So that I can donate my power to the dynasties of old?
Why do I vote, I'm not going to keep on giving strength to them.

Baptism of fire

I closed the four walls of heaven
On the second night without you, I lost hope
It seemed to me that your absence only grew larger
I feel as if the blood in my veins is freezing.
 
Loneliness is like wet clothing on my body 1
And this night is slowly unravelling
The clock counts the empty hours,
You left, and I'm lost
Loneliness is like wet clothing on my body
And this night is slowly unravelling
Your shadow is wandering around everywhere, and I'm feeling it 2

And in my silence, my memories frighten me
I get drunk, I burn, but nothing happens
Your concern is fire, and nothing can put it out.

Good luck

Since we're separating works from words
And everyone is taking what they must
We'll say goodbye while overcoming the hurdles and whatever waves try to knock us off our boards
 
Good luck, since you basically only want luck
Because your mistakes are countless
Good luck, and I hope there aren't any more obstacles in your path
Because you're playing with life and love as your two aces
 
Since you chose this road, don't ask me who's winning and who's losing
Don't wait for me to tell you how I'm repenting
This goodbye is only bringing good for me.

I'm losing my heart

Since the moment I lost you, the nights grew longer
And everything around me was like a deserted planet
Since the moment I lost you, the moon hid
And every memory of you was taken by the breeze
 
I'm losing my heart
(I'm losing)
Come back, come closer to me
You hold the power to finish me in your hand
The power is in your hand, only in your hand,
And you can save me.
 
Since the moment I lost you, time stopped
No matter where I go in this world, I feel like I've been alone all my life
Since the moment I lost you, I only count bitterness
I gave you my dreams and you took my life.
 
I'm losing my heart
(I'm losing)
Come back, come closer to me
You hold the power to finish me in your hand
The power is in your hand, only in your hand,
And you can save me.

Behind the wall

Here, everything looks like a dazed landscape
Ethnic colours, a gap in the mind, it's all salted, it's where you're searching to find colour in your voice
Shooting touches at your own sighs
 
A life on the shoulder*, a life of caution and nonexistence
You say and are nothing, zero, without value
A rehearsal of stamina, of swearing, of hazing, of frustrations
By little people with all the power
 
Behind the wall, life changes colour
You don't exist, you don't have an opinion, you live in a coma
 
The last suddenly become the first in the crew of ratters and camaraderie
You turn your nerves into cigarettes and smoke them
You count the hours, the moments, so you don't go insane
 
Here, God holds power well, you become an impersonal form without value
Fragments of your life are in your eyes, the bitterness and silence locked away in your uniform
 
Behind the wall, life changes colour
You don't exist, you don't have an opinion, you live in a coma

On the little balcony of life

I'm sitting here drinking on the little balcony of life, there's a bottle on the floor
I'm erasing my love, so I can see where I'm going next
 
What dizziness, what drunkenness
The yearning still isn't gone
I'm drinking a love made of ivory straight from the glass
What dizziness, what drunkenness
The yearning still isn't gone
My heart has split in two and I'm giving it to you
 
I'm sitting here on the little balcony of life, whistling songs of the East
Songs that are like touching longing
And our love is on the floor, I see it and weep.
 
What dizziness, what drunkenness
The yearning still isn't gone
I'm drinking a love made of ivory straight from the glass
What dizziness, what drunkenness
The yearning still isn't gone
My heart has split in two and I'm giving it to you

My soul is waiting

What's the reason, what are the words my thoughts are waiting for?
Are they trying to tell me to not be afraid?
You'll always be there in my silence.
What's the reason, what are the words my thoughts are waiting for?
Are they trying to tell me to feel a bit, to give some time to love?
 
My soul is waiting, it remains strong when you're near
It's trying to understand what she's made of and why she's persistent
 
My soul is waiting, it's always staying near you
It's trying to understand what she's made of and how to endure this
 
What's the reason that I should endure this?
Is it so I can believe your apology once more?
What's the reason, what are the words that will make you believe in the true love that gets you out of habit?
 
My soul is waiting, it remains strong when you're near
It's trying to understand what she's made of and why she's persistent
 
My soul is waiting, it's always staying near you
It's trying to understand what she's made of and how to endure this

I'm disappearing

Ever since I was a child, I liked faery tales, and the sweetest ones tended to be my mother's
Witches and princes, faeries and kings, and my hero defeated thousands of enemies
 
But time passed, and my faery tales and I were left alone in a world of truths
And when you came into my life, all the light left
I live a half-life, never alone and never a stranger.
 
I'm disappearing, I'm disappearing
My clothes have shrunk--or, at least, that's how I feel.
I'm disappearing, I'm disappearing
I'm entering a dream and disappearing
 
I'm always stuck in a corner of my own mind
I go inside and I'm in my own faery tale
I'll be a queen and you'll be my prince
In my faery tale, I'll be your hero.
 
I'm disappearing, I'm disappearing
My clothes have shrunk--or, at least, that's how I feel.
I'm disappearing, I'm disappearing
I'm entering a dream and disappearing
 
I always thought my life would be a state of mind
With everybody around me giving me no sign
I felt the fog in my world darkening my eyes
Raised and shackled by a story I left behind
 
But then you came and all the shadows flew away
You called me twice before but I have been too late
It's up to you if you decide to let it linger
You know my broken heart is wrapped around your fingers
 
I fade away...

Brother

The sun hid early, you're missing and it's scaring me
And a bird in a corner says it and groans
It's singing songs of fire, of rocks and dryness
But there's one song that pains me, one that says you'll never find another love anywhere
 
Fire away, brother, fire away so your glass will break
Because your little girl is leaving you and she's drinking with another.
 
Photographs flash in front of my eyes
I'm remembering a life and the sins flood in
Look and see where I've gotten, how everyone is telling me 'goodbye'
But there's one thing that pains me--I'm not going to find another love anywhere.
 
Fire away, brother, fire away so your glass will break
Because your little girl is leaving you and she's drinking with another.
