• given to the wild albümünde yer alan güzel bir the maccabees şarkısı.

    never as a child
    would you give this time of day
    you would take it from the shadows
    and you give it another name

    but now it’s all that’s left
    now it’s all that’s left

    and though it awful gentle takes you
    and it awful slowly leaves
    it’s a weight i wouldn’t wish upon
    and i wish i wouldn’t have to wait

    but now it’s all that’s left
    now it’s all that’s left
    now it’s all that’s left
    now it’s all that’s left

    never as a child
    never as a child
    now it’s so vivid
    now it’s so vivid
    now it’s so vivid
    now it’s so vivid

    given to the wild
    given to the wilder ways
    while the ways of a child
    are whiled away, whiled away

    now it’s all that’s left
    now it’s all that’s left
  • as i see you here a sleep,
    arms wide open your eyes a little weird.
    and a shivering on the rhythm,
    of the deeds of a very old man.
    i want to heal this life in which you have been,
    to wash away the things you should not have seen.
    to shoot the bastards in your head.
    as i forgot that you are already dead.

    the wounded. monument albümünden. içten içe işleyen cinsten.

  • türkçesi:

    çocuk

    güzel bir şeydir kesinlikle berrak gözün.
    renkle ve ördeklerle doldurmak isterim onu,
    yeni olanın hayvanat bahçesiyle

    ki tefekküre dalarsın adlarıyla –
    nisan kardeleni, kızılderili piposu,
    dümdüz

    küçük bitki sapı,
    muhteşem ve geleneksel tasvirlerde
    birleşebilir

    ellerin bu sıkıntılı
    burulması değil, bu yıldızsız
    karanlık tavan

    demişler ya, vay anasını.

    ama babacığım, desem..

  • free grubunun free at last albumunden, hayati boyunca aklinin sesini dinlemis, ancak altin bir dolunayin parladigi bir gece duydugu, ismini cagiran bir sesin buyusune kapilip, bir anda kendini, tirmanmayi hayalinden bile gecirmedigi kocaman bir dagin zirvesinde, tutsak yuregiyle, yapayalniz bulan, hayati bir masal zanneden buyumeyen cocuklar icin bir sarki:

    child you're talking of freedom
    painted on your garden wall
    it's not there at all
    child you're talking of wisdom
    you say wisdom is a golden rule
    you ain't no fool
    but you don't know who it is
    who calls your name
    in the light of the golden moon
    you don't know who it is who brought you here
    and chained up your heart
    so soon

    child you're life is a fairytale
    and it's not the same
    and the clouds
    you're hiding behind
    in your misty mind have disappeared
    like a sailor far from the shores of your dreams
    and far from the love of your home
    sailor lost on your own misty seas
    and the chains on your heart, baby
    might be my love
    might be my love

    it's so confusing
    and you feel that you're loosing yourself
    but, there over the mountain
    you thought you'd never have to climb
    there's a road
    reaching and stretching
    to the corner of your mind
    like a river casts aside the dust
    and grows and grows as it flows
    the feeling deep inside of you
    must break like a dam
    so set you free
    so set you free
    so set you free.
