Padme Lyrics

Duruyorum yine, bu akşam
Ekrana bakmıyorum en azından
Ama duvarlarda gözüm kalmış

Bakıyorum yine, bulutlara
Yıldızlar hep onların arkasında
Binalar benim baş ucumda

Devlet meseleleri beni aşar
Aynaya ne zaman baksam yolum şaşar
Beynim kadar küçük dünyamda

Saatler hep durmuş
Beni bilen kaybolmuş
Saatler hep durmuş
Beni soran kaybolmuş

Uzanıyorum yine, yatağımda
Yapıştım kaldım çarşafıma
Çünkü yastığım benden sıkılmış

Biliyorum yine kalkamıycam
Günler geçiyor aklımın ucundan
Hiç ben bile geçmezken

Devlet meseleleri beni aşar
Aynaya ne zaman baksam yolum şaşar
Beynim kadar küçük dünyamda

Saatler hep durmuş
Beni bilen kaybolmuş

Saatler hep durmuş
Beni soran kaybolmuş

Duruyorum yine, bu akşam
I'm standing still again, tonight

Ekrana bakmıyorum en azından
At least I'm not staring at the screen

Ama duvarlarda gözüm kalmış
But my eyes are stuck on the walls

Bakıyorum yine, bulutlara
I'm looking at the clouds again

Yıldızlar hep onların arkasında
Stars always behind them

Binalar benim baş ucumda
Buildings at my bedside

Devlet meseleleri beni aşar
State matters are beyond me

Aynaya ne zaman baksam yolum şaşar
Whenever I look at the mirror, I lose my way

Beynim kadar küçük dünyamda
In my small world as big as my brain

Saatler hep durmuş
The clocks have stopped

Beni bilen kaybolmuş
Those who know me have disappeared
