Ümit Sayın & Suavi - Hasret Türküsü

[Verse 1]
The neon hums, but no one listens,
Footsteps echo down the empty street.
A cigarette, it burns in slow precision,
Flickers out, just like last week.

[Pre-Chorus]
Every window hides a story,
Every shadow speaks in tongues.

[Chorus]
But I keep walking, I keep fading, 
Through the static of the night.
I hear your voice, but it's just memory,
Another ghost in flashing light.

[Verse 2]
Strangers pass with hollow faces,
Eyes reflect the city's glow.
Somewhere deep, the trains keep running,
Parallel to what we know.

[Pre-Chorus]
Every window hides a story,
Every shadow speaks in tongues.

[Chorus]
But I keep walking, I keep fading,
Through the static of the night.
I hear your voice, but it's just memory,
Another ghost in flashing light.

[Bridge]
I saw your name carved in pavement,
Washed away in last night's rain.
The skyline flickers like a warning,
But I don't care to read the signs.

[Outro]
I keep walking... I keep fading...
Just a whisper through the wires.




"Keep Walking" unfolds as a cinematic journey through the urban night, set in E major at a measured 84 BPM. The track marries a reflective spirit with an undercurrent of bittersweet resilience that is quintessential to alternative rock. It opens with an atmospheric blend of reverb-drenched electric guitars and subtle, syncopated percussion that paints a sonic portrait of an empty cityscape—a place where neon lights hum their lonely tune and every footstep echoes against cracked concrete.

In the first verse, the sparse instrumentation mirrors the isolation depicted in the lyrics. “The neon hums, but no one listens” invokes visceral images of deserted avenues and flickering streetlights, while the burning cigarette becomes a symbol for a fleeting, transient moment—both a gesture of defiance and despair. As the pre-chorus arrives, layers of ambient guitar and gentle bass underpin the evocative lines: “Every window hides a story, Every shadow speaks in tongues.” Here, the sound expands, capturing the mystery and depth hidden within the everyday urban sprawl.

The chorus introduces a compelling emotional duality; a resolute insistence to keep moving forward even as the night dissolves into fleeting memories—“I keep walking, I keep fading.” The powerful refrain is buoyed by a dynamically shifting rhythm that stresses both the act of perseverance and the inevitability of dissolution within the static of the night. It’s as if each chord and echo gently reminds the listener that while voices of the past may linger, life’s forward momentum is inescapable.

The bridge deepens the reflective narrative by visualizing vanishing imprints—names carved in pavement, washed away by rain—symbolizing ephemeral connections and the constant passage of time. The understated outro leaves the listener with the lingering impression of a soft whisper through the wires, a soulful musing on memories that fade as one moves onward in life.

Overall, "Keep Walking" encapsulates the heart of alternative rock—blending introspection with gritty urban textures to create a track that is as much about enduring solitude as it is about embracing the quiet power of moving forward.

Turn the World Upside Down

Zakkum - Sen Hala Benimlesin

Zakkum - Güzel Dediğim Ne Varsa

Söz - Müzik : Harun Kolçak

Öyle savunmasız bir zamandı
Bulduğunda beni
Sen başlattın boyun eğdim
Kabullendim seni

Bu sözlerim sitem değil ama
Yazık değil mi bana
Çok yalnızdım kaybolmuştum
Sığındım işte sana

Kaygılarım yeniden uyanıyor
Bu duygular beni ürkütüyor
Yeniden yaşamak mı gerekiyor
Yine acılar yine korkular
Yine aşk

Yanımda kal yanımda kal
Düşlerim yetmez ki bana
Yanımda kal yanımda kal
Çok geç rastladım sana
