havalarda uçuşuyoruz
birer toz bulutuyuz
rüzgarla uçup
yağmurla yapışıyoruz

karışıp gidiyoruz
çarpıp geri geliyoruz
sonra farkına varıyoruz
ki aslında hiç bir yerde yokuz

yokuz aslında hiçbir yerde yokuz

parçalanıp bölünüyoruz
görüntü verip çekiliyoruz
varmış gibi davranıp 
orada olmuyoruz

yokuz aslında, hiçbir yerde yokuz

yokuz feat. hakan kursun

Çiçekler ölmüş, hepsi.Eskiden bir yer ayarlardın güneşi iyiyse, yerini de sevdiyse ne biçim açardı.Şimdi güneş aynı, ışık aynı, yer aynı..
Suni gübre istiyorlar.Bir iki gram potas koyunca bir coşuyor namussuzlar.Ama sonra ölüyorlar...

İsmet Özel Kırk Hadis 10/40

Lyrics :

Testing the new way of the prophecy
And waiting for the dawn
Even birds can't fly higher
Neither men can be the sky
Going on, to the rocket plane
Going high, so high
To lost the man that we are,
To forget all the past below us
And to see only pain above us.
