Bir Şansım Daha Olsa Lyrics English Translation by Allame
Too late, statute of limitations for some things
And my face hangs like a courthouse wall
If I had luck, if I had even one chance
I can’t bring time back, it’s impossible
In those moments my strength is less than an ant’s
If I had even one chance, if I had one chance
Hoping is nice, but waiting is an insult to time
Loneliness is the devil’s hunter, a fair of evils
You’ve burned with love like a whore and love affair
Don’t talk, my turn never comes, wake me up if I fall asleep
This is a scratched record, my crisis and manic recital
Alcohol has no idea, add it up and I’ve drunk a hundred barrels
My love looked at me, didn’t recognize me, said your face looks weird
My friend, my tongue is sick of ashtrays full of butts
Too early to die, let the call to prayer be read first
I’ve been standing a full century, a bat that knows no sleep
Man is tabula rasa, knowing is a nightmare
If being loved were a possibility, my tongue would print money from poetry
The city, a raging river in motion
Erasing the one in the mirror is my only wish with my goldfish memory
It’s like I’m waiting for a world that doesn’t exist to exist right now, I’m in such a void, believe me
Too late, statute of limitations for some things
And my face hangs like a courthouse wall
If I had luck, if I had even one chance
I can’t bring time back, it’s impossible
In those moments my strength is less than an ant’s
If I had even one chance, if I had one chance
I wiped the crocodile’s tears with my own hands
Finger dry, no moisture, the truth is spiritually
I’m older than that cane the old man holds onto
My maturity arrived while I was young
I’m the rock that calms the water’s shameless rage
My voice won’t come out like a nail, even if I’m worn down cruelly it doesn’t matter
Bees don’t waste time explaining to flies
That honey is better than shit
I can’t speak for people, but I speak on behalf of man
In the middle of meanings there’s chaos, I’m struggling there, fighting with ideas
With your warm breath, tell me the things you said I’m cold
I think deep, deep
If only I had one chance, one more time
To rewind this strange film I watched wrapped up from the very start
I’d erase the characterless characters with their dialogues in one go, if I had one chance
Too late, statute of limitations for some things
And my face hangs like a courthouse wall
If I had luck, if I had even one chance
I can’t bring time back, it’s impossible
In those moments my strength is less than an ant’s
If I had even one chance, if I had one chance
