Deli Kız
"
Your heart sings like a kettle
And your words, they boil away like steam.
And a lie burns long while the truth bites quick...
A heart is built for both it seems.
You are lonely as a church
Despite the queuing out your door.
I am empty as a promise, no more.
When the time comes,
And rights have been read,
I think of you often...
But for once I meant what I said.
I was salted by your hunger,
Now you've gone and lost your appetite.
And a little bird is every bit as handy in a fight.
I am lonely as a memory
Despite the gathering round the fire.
Aren't you every bird on every wire?
When the time comes,
And rights have been read,
I think of you often...
But for once I meant what I said.
Here I stay, I lay me down,
In a house by the hill.
I'm dug from the rubble, and cut from the kill.
