Katie Melua - Spider’s Web
“Because the line between,
Wrong and right,
Is the width of a thread,
From a spider’s web.
The piano keys are black and white,
But they sound like a million colours in your mind.”?
Eflatun - Şarap
Gökyüzünü kaybetmiş bir kuş gibi
Üzgün yorgun vede kırgınım hayata
İğne atsan yere düşmez tenhaların var kalbimde
Aynadaki hatta sudaki aksin bile kayıp (x2)
Biz seninle bir salkımın iki aşık üzümüyken
Başka şişelerde şarap olmuşuz
Başka hayatlarda harap olmuşuz
Biz seninle bir denizin iki aşık balığı iken
Başka sularda yüzüp durmuşuz
Başka kıyılara vurmuşuz.
Silentium - Revangelis
“Let those of you who deserted me, drown with me into the fiery pits of hell”
You took my hand
And we both were falling
You embraced me
And we both were drowning
Did I feel you here
Or was I only dreaming
Did I hear you sigh
Or was I only screaming
All is lost but pain I thought it would be fading
All is lost but hope of you arriving…
I woke again,
Arisen with the mornlight
And we both were falling…
Did I feel her now
Or was I only dreaming
Did I hear her sigh
Or was I only screaming
Don’t let them turn
The knives deeper in her
And now I am forever falling…(falling…falling…)
How painful to feel
Her pain and emotion I heaved a sigh
Of poetic passion
She left again
Gone with the twilight
And now I am forever falling

Nick Cave - Where Do We Go Now but Nowhere…
i remember a girl so very well
the carnival drums all mad in the air
grim reapers and skeletons and a missionary bell
o where do we go now but nowhere
in a colonial hotel we fucked up the sun
and then we fucked it down again
well the sun comes up and the sun goes down
going round and round to nowhere
the kitten that padded and purred on my lap
now swipes at my face with the paw of a bear
i turn the other cheek and you lay into that
o where do we go now but nowhere
o wake up, my love, my lover wake up
o wake up, my love, my lover wake up
across clinical benches with nothing to talk
breathing tea and biscuits and the serenity prayer
while the bones of our child crumble like chalk
o where do we go now but nowhere
i remember a girl so bold and so bright
loose-limbed and laughing and brazen and bare
sits gnawing her knuckles in the chemical light
o where do we go now but nowhere
you come for me now with a cake that you’ve made
ravaged avenger with a clip in your hair
full of glass and bleach and my old razorblades
o where do we go now but nowhere
o wake up, my love, my lover wake up
o wake up, my love, my lover wake up
if they’d give me my clothes back then i could go home
from this fresh, this clean, antiseptic air
behind the locked gates an old donkey moans
o where do we go now but nowhere
around the duck pond we grimly mope
gloomily and mournfully we go rounds again
and one more doomed time and without much hope
going round and around to nowhere
from the balcony we watched the carnival band
the crack of the drum a little child did scare
i can still feel his tiny fingers pressed in my hand
o where do we go now but nowhere
if i could relive one day of my life
if i could relive just a single one
you on the balcony, my future wife
o who could have known, but no one
o wake up, my love, my lover make up
o wake up, my love, my lover make up
