the ascent of stan þarký sözü

pangs of silence
from the room upstairs

that you´re no fun
since the war was won
in fact, you have become all of the things you´ve always run away from

being poor was not such a drag in hindsight
and you wonder why your father was so resigned
now you don´t wonder any more
