Failing Light - Brian Eno

As youths we used to talk at night Of the joys that life was going to bring our way And the failures of our forebears Were as clear to us as the cold light of day But now those days are dead & gone And the future that we had is now the past And it's cobwebs that we cling to Our aspirations turned to ashes in our hands

I think of all of us, who search for the meaning, I find some purpose to the supposed reality of things, Never finding the answer Ohh, I can do to contribute, Any sort of substances by, Living a laugh, With some hope of finding some beauty in the end, today, Know I'll make plenty of mistakes And I know sometimes I've chosen to make the wrong decision But the Beauty of Failing, Trying over again

Cannot get rid of the pain, setting me ablaze inside Can no longer feel my heartbeat, it is kind of hard to describe There's blood within my tears and I'm fighting to survive There's a darkness following me and I need you here Heartbeat failing One thought and my mind ignites Sends a shiver down my spine It was us against the world Isn't it beautiful when two hearts align? We built something out of nothing Turned it into perfection then depression You deceived and lied (showed me what hell is like) Showed me the face of death, face of death You're the pain I can feel stabbing my own shadow You're the tears I'm trying to stop when I'm all alone Need to know where you are, can you hear it now? This is my heartbeat, heartbeat failing Heartbeat failing Everything was so beautiful, I loved the feeling of it Sometimes love can be unbearable, but that's the beauty of it And then the epic showdown came, the end of us And I would never be the same, the aftermath (Like a malignant cancer) You spread nothing but disaster (You're the pain) You're the pain I can feel stabbing my own shadow You're the tears I'm trying to stop when I'm all alone Need to know where you are, can you hear it now? This is my heartbeat, heartbeat failing This is my heartbeat, heartbeat failing Heartbeat failing You are the pain You're the tears I'm trying to stop when I'm all alone Need to know where you are, can you hear it now? This is my heartbeat, heartbeat failing This is my heartbeat, heartbeat failing

(Don, buz gibi kolların arasında kaldım) (Dinledin ağlamamı, sebep sormadın) (Biliyorum ki gece vaktinde) Don, buz gibi kolların arasında kaldım Dinledin ağlamamı, sebep sormadın Biliyorum ki gece vaktinde uyumadın, onun fotoğraflarına Son defa, bunu bilmek hiç iyi değil ama beni hiç yormak istemediğini Biliyorum, bana gelmez ki, gelir imkânsız Şimdi ner'desin kim bilir Görmedim gittiğini Koşmak isterdim peşinden, kalbin kilitli mi? Sandım ki taşırım, tüm yükü omzumda Hiç gücüm kalmadı, hevesim hâlâ kursağımda Oh, korkarım incittim, tanırım ben seni Kalmak değil hiç benlik, gördüğüm an gerçeği Kaçmayı bırak, hadi, yanıma gel benim, tek istediğim Baby, gel yanıma, alayım seni kollarıma Hayat hain, aşkın zalim, derdine düştüm, yollarına Güvеndim hep dostlarıma, düştüm kurtlar sofrasına Vermiyo'm artık kimseyе taviz, düşmem kalleş oltasına Bu sokaklar yormasın, ha, kal hep sakin, bozmasınlar Ara yollar, zor basamaklar, ayık ol, seni de yolmasınlar Doğmadı sensiz güneş, gece de 5:00, cigara leş gibi Kafam oldum bi' keş ve de leş sensiz zor yaşamak Şimdi ner'desin kim bilir Görmedim gittiğini Koşmak isterdim peşinden, kalbin kilitli mi? Sandım ki taşırım, tüm yükü omzumda Hiç gücüm kalmadı hevesim hâlâ kursağımda Oh, korkarım incittim, tanırım ben seni Kalmak değil hiç benlik, gördüğüm an gerçeği Kaçmayı bırak, hadi, yanıma gel benim, tek istediğim
