AÇTIM GÖZLERİMİ SİSLERİN İÇİNDE
ŞİDDET VE KARANLIK AKIYOR ÜSTÜME.

AÇTIM KOLLARIMI BUZULLARA KARŞI
KAYIP İNANCIMI BULURUM BELKİ DE.

YANLIŞ ANLA-MA SADECE BİLMEK İSTEDİM,
KİMSİN SEN, NELERİ DEĞİŞTİR-DİN?

TANRI?
TANRI?

ÇÜRÜYOR HAYATLAR KARANLIK KUYUDA
VE YARDIMA GELEN YOK BU KARANLIKTA.

ACILARLA ÖRÜLMÜŞ 
KANLI DUVARLAR
ÜSTÜME ÇÖKÜYOR.

TANRI?

lyrics

Tell all the people who believe what they read in the press 
 Tell all the folk who stare from behind suburban walls 
 The enemy is not some nation far across the sea 
 The enemy is with us every single breathing day 

 So yes, I will fight for my country 
 The land that I love so well 
 Yes - for justice, a land fit for all our futures 
 Yes, I will fight for my country 
 The land that I love so well 
 Hear the voices of our history echo all around 

 Fight all the ones who divide us rich against poor 
 Fight all the ones who divide us white against black 
 Fight all the powers who want their missiles in our earth 
 Fight all the people who would lead us into war 

 So yes, I will fight for my country 
 The land that I love so well 
 Yes - for justice, a land fit for all our futures 
 Yes, I will fight for my country 
 The land that I love so well 
 Hear the voices of our history echo all around 

 "No rights were ever given to us by the grace of God 
 Some United Nations clause 
 Or some nice guy at the top 
 Our rights were bought all the blood 
 And tears of our grandmothers 
 And grandfathers before!" 

 For all the folk who gave their lives for us 
 For all the folk who spit out - never say die 
 For all the fires burning on our highest hills 
 For all the people spinning tales tonight 
 Fight all the powers who abuse our Common Laws 
 Fight all the powers who think they only owe themselves 

 So yes, I will fight for my country 
 The land that I love so well 
 Yes - for justice, a land fit for all our futures 
 Yes, I will fight for my country 
 The land that I love so well 
 Hear the voices of our history echo all around

Written by Roger Waters & David Gilmour

lyrics

So, so you think you can tell 
Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain. 
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail? 
A smile from a veil? 
Do you think you can tell? 

Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts? 
Hot ashes for trees? 
Hot air for a cool breeze? 
Cold comfort for change? 
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage? 

How I wish, how I wish you were here. 
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year, 
Running over the same old ground. 
What have you found? 
The same old fears. 

Wish you were here. 
Wish you were here. 
Wish you were here. 
Wish you were here. 
Wish you were here.

("Alice" EP, 1983) 
Written by Andrew Eldritch, Craig Adams & Gary Marx
 
lyrics

The bodies on the naked on the low damp ground 
In the violet hour to the violent sound 
And the darkness the blinding the eyes that shine 
And the voices singing line on line 
This is the floorshow the clapping hands 
Animal flow from the animal glands 
In the violet hour to the violent sound 
Going round and around and around and all… 

I feel the bite I feel the beat I see the dancing feet 
I feel the light I feel the heat I see the new elite 
I see the final floorshow I see the western dream 
I see the faces glow and I see the bodies steam

See them shimmy see them go 
See their painted faces glow 
Slow slow quick quick slow 
See those pagans go go go go go 

Well this is the floorshow the last ideal 
It's populist got mass appeal 
The old religion redefined 
For the facile futile totally blind 
For the totally blind 

Mundane by day inane at night 
Pagan playing in the flashing light 
In the violet hour to the violent sound 
Going round and around and around and all… 

The bodies on the naked on the low damp ground 
In the violet hour to the violent sound 
And the darkness the blinding the eyes that shine 
And the voices singing line on line 
See them shimmy see them go 
See their painted faces glow

Lyrics:

We've got to stop this crazy carrying on 
It's gonna be the death of you 
Stop this crazy carrying on 
It's gonna be the death of me 
It's gonna be the end you see 
It's gonna be the death of we 

If we don't stop this crazy carrying on 
It's gonna be the death of you 
Stop this crazy carrying on 
It's gonna be the death of me 
It's gonna be the end you see 
It's gonna be the death of me 

And I feel like I'm gonna die 
I don't feel so good inside 
Why baby-why, why, why? 
But I had a good time 
You know I had a good night 

We got to stop this crazy carrying on 
It's gonna be the death of you 
Stop this crazy carrying on 
It's gonna be the death of me 
It's gonna be the end you see 
It's gonna be the death of me 

And I feel like I'm gonna die 
I don't feel so good inside 
Why baby-why, why, why? 
But I had a good time 
You know I had a good night

DEATH OF ME (RAMONES COVER)

Lyrics:

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

KURAKLIK (LIVE)

Lyrics:

Scarred 
Your back was turned 
Curled like an embryo 
Take another face 
You will be kissed again 
I was cold as I mouthed the words 
And crawled across the mirror 
I wait 
Await the next breath 
Your name 
Like ice into my heart 

A shallow grave 
A monument to the ruined age 
Ice in my eyes 
And eyes like ice don't move 
Screaming at the moon 
Another past time 
Your name 
Like ice into my heart 

Everything as cold as life 
Can no one save you? 
Everything 
As cold as silence 
And you never say a word 

Your name 
Like ice into my heart 
Your name 
Like ice into my heart

COLD (THE CURE COVER)

LIVING FOREVER
FOREVER DYING
A STORY UNTOLD
ABOUT A GHOST

HAIL THE FALLEN
AND DON'T FORGET
HAIL THE FALLEN
GLORIOUS DEATH

WHEN THE BEAUTY OF SUNSET
WHISPERS TO ME
ECHOING THE SOUNDS
OF RESTLESS BIRDS
AND COMES THE RAIN
TO WET THE TREES
NOW MY SOUL IS READY
TO LEAVE

HAIL THE FALLEN
AND DON'T FORGET
HAIL THE FALLEN
GLORIOUS DEATH
