Where are the rivers? Where are the rivers of my life? Where are the rivers? Where are the rivers of my pride? Where are the rivers? Here are the rivers of my eyes. Where are the rivers? Here are the rivers of my cries.

Σώσε μου το νου Σώσε μου το σώμα Σώσε μου το νου Βγάλε με απ’ το χώμα Psychosomatic disorders make me feel so unsafe Psychosomatic disorders make me feel so much pain Psychosomatic disorders something is calling my name Shit I’ve been carrying in my mind so deep that drive me insane Will I survive this time of violence? Will I survive this time? This time? Psychosomatic symptoms My mind and my memories they scream, dream! My muscles feel like they are freezing My body is burning from heat. Beat. Will I survive this time of sorrow? Will I survive this time of anger? Will I survive this time of violence? Will I survive this time? This time? Σώσε μου το νου Σώσε μου το σώμα Σώσε μου το νου Βγάλε με απ’ το χώμα

It makes me wonder The same rain The same sun That same dust from the desert The same cars Maybe the same clothes Are all around us The same guns the same toys the same feelings the same schools or ministries but still where are we looking at where is our mind focused on what are the ears listening to what of a modern hell have we constructed knowing but not seeing but not enjoying but not suffering but not smiling but not supporting but not being but not but not either of us has said anything and nothing’s gonna change we like it that way it’s comfortable it’s kind of smooth kind of kind of soft and kind of the days go by easily and kind of we are dying but kind of who cares kind of we don’t and kind of lol kind of the hell with this kind of ok bye kind of sisters kind of bros kind of fuck the system kind of kind kind of gangsta kind of it’s ok like that kind of safe and kind of dangerous kind of we like it that way kind of yes kind of cool and sexy kind of crazy and fun kind of silent kind of dead but kind of not full out kind of as in a part of it dead a part of it not dead but not alive. Kind of there.

I, I’m already an outcast I’m a borderline I’m naked out of choice and I feel totally fine I’m just a grain of sand but I am only mine Hey, you’re already on top you got a privilege Your color and your money make you go to space So let me out of this I don’t need you to engage Don’t shoot me when I’m crying Don’t shoot me when I’m crying Don’t shoot me when I’m dying Don’t shoot me when I’m crying Don’t shoot me when I’m crying Don’t shoot me when I’m dying Stop, I will not win this race I ain’t no friends with cops I’m just a queen of night my religion is sluts My prayer is an orgy full of tears and hugs Boom, I know you’re gonna kill me but I’ll stay alive I don’t know how to fight I don’t believe in crime Just watch me flying away using my wings of pride Don’t shoot me when I’m crying Don’t shoot me when I’m crying Don’t shoot me when I’m dying Don’t shoot me when I’m crying Don’t shoot me when I’m crying Don’t shoot me when I’m dying From the sky I’ll be your nightmare From the hell I’ll send you angels Cause my tears will never dry out And my soul will live forever I Hey Stop

Serotonine I’ve got you in my blood cells Serotonine I need you I’m so helpless Serotonine I’m so depressed without you Serotonine I’m good when you decide to Serotonine neurotransmit your presence Serotonine go deep into my essence Tripping, overflowing, falling, fading Baby I’m just dying Da da da dying Tripping, overflowing, falling, fading Baby I’m just dying Da da da dying Serotonine I know where I can find you. Serotonine, reveal yourself I dare you Serotonine you do what I will tell you Serotonine my biological sin. Serotonine my happiness relies on Serotonine, thrombotonine, enteramine. Serotonine I’m sleepless when you are missing Serotonine please tell me what you are wishing for. Tripping, overflowing, falling, fading Baby I’m just dying Da da da dying Tripping, overflowing, falling, fading Baby I’m just dying Da da da dying

Oh where are my pearls Where are my pearls Don't put me in graves Without my pearls Βλέπω με τα μάτια της καρδιάς Πες μου μαθαμε ποτέ τι θα πει ο ντουνιάς Αν δεν χωράω στο κουτί σου το ετεροκανονικο Πες με απροσαρμοστο κι αντισυμβατικό Τίποτα δεν έχω στ' όνομα μου Και δεν έχει σημασία τ 'ονομα μου Μάτια γαλανά μπράτσα στιβαρά μου Είναι κόκκινα και όμορφα όλα τα φορέματα μου Το ρόδο θα ‘ναι ρόδο πάντα όπως και να το πεις Είμαι ένας άνθρωπος απλά του Μυριβήλη ποιητής Ύπνο δεν βρισκει η συμφορά στην κλίνη κάποιου ασύλου Δε θεραπεύεται με φάρμακα η δυσφορία του φύλου Της γάτας την ουρά και του σκύλου τη ράχη έκανα φίλους γιατί ταίρι δεν βρήκα σ όλη την πλάση Άσε με να ζήσω όπως το λέει η ψυχή μου Κι όταν θα φύγω θέλω μόνο της πέρλες μου μαζί μου. Oh where are my pearls Where are my pearls Don't put me in graves Without my pearls Silver alert κοινωνικός συναγερμός τελειώνει μια ζωή όπως της σκέψης ο ειρμός. Ολιγωρία αμέλεια και αδιαφορία δυο μήνες στα αζήτητα δίπλα σε άδεια φορεία. Ρούχα γυναικεία σε σακούλες σκουπιδιών και ένα κορμί δυνατό στην αγάπη των ουρανών Κι αν τώρα σου χαρίζουμε δράμα και μέλος σε κανέναν δεν αξίζει τέτοιο τέλος. Don't put me in graves Without my pearls Κι αν τώρα σου χαρίζουμε δράμα και μέλος σε κανέναν δεν αξίζει τέτοιο τέλος.

This is a kind reminder for anyone who needs a kind reminder. For my chosen family. For anyone who needs to hear today that they are supported, recognised and loved. When you gonna fall I’m your support I will be your border to the world When you cannot talk I am your tongue I will be your lips to keep you strong When you go down or feel unwell Moods that are hitting you too hard When you go back into your shell I will be the one to have your back. Hey easy now easy now Hey we have won We have won This is your kind reminder I am your kind reminder I’ll be your kind reminder This is your kind reminder I am your kind reminder I’ll be your kind reminder When you see the dark I’ll be the sun Light up your way bright up your sky And when you don’t laugh and see no fun I will be the clown who sends you high. When your life seems fucked I’ll bring a joint We will talk for hours philosophize And when you decide that there’s no point I will be the clock to make you rise. Hey easy now easy now Hey we have won! We have won! This is your kind reminder I am your kind reminder I’ll be your kind reminder This is your kind reminder I am your kind reminder I’ll be your kind reminder Hey easy now easy now Hey we have won! We have won! This is your kind reminder I am your kind reminder I’ll be your kind reminder This is your kind reminder I am your kind reminder I’ll be your kind reminder Η φιλία είναι φιλία. Πρέπει να έχεις φιλία με έναν άνθρωπο να ‘σαι κολλητός. Να πεις μια κουβέντα, να έρθει στο σπίτι σου να πας στο σπίτι του. Να πιείτε ένα καφέ και στο δικό σου και στο δικό της. να πάτε κάπου να μου πει ξέρεις θα πάω εκεί, να της πω θα πάω εκεί θες να έρθεις;

I saw someone holding a rose Waiting for someone to arrive Twenty twenty-three is now We forgot how love can thrive I saw someone holding a rose Α rose I saw someone holding a rose Fixing their hair checking their clothes They were anxious looking around Ready to proudly take the roads I saw someone holding a rose I saw someone holding a rose I saw someone holding a rose A rose A rose I saw someone holding a rose It was a painting like a movie It was intense it felt like life Tears were falling on my hoodie I saw someone holding a rose I saw someone holding a rose I saw someone holding a rose I saw someone holding a rose I saw someone holding a rose I saw someone holding a rose That is a story on its own Don’t know the ending don’t know what happened That’s a poem that is my home I saw someone holding a rose I saw someone holding a rose A rose A rose A rose A rose A rose A rose I saw someone A rose

Sadness 03:20
How will I know? How will I know? Is this a crisis of sadness? Is it my days full of madness? Is it the anger that drives me insane? Is this a crisis of sadness? Is this existential redress? Is it the system that’s falling apart? How will I know? Is it all for real? How will I know? Is it all for real? How will i know? Is it all happening for real? How will I know? Is it all for real? How will I know? Is it all for real? How will I know if this is real? Is this a crisis of sadness? My tears fall far out of this planet Is it the hopeless arrival on Mars Is this a crisis of sadness? Best friends I’m now with the mattress Darkness inside through the windows the sun How will I know? Is it all for real? How will I know? Is it all for real? How will I know if this is real? Is it all happening for real? How will I know? everything is real How will I know? everything I feel is real for me How will I know if this is real?

Eons 03:07
Eons and eons Eons and eons Eons and eons the past is gone Eons and eons the future’s lost Eons and eons we ‘re history Eons and eons no victory Time Years Eons What do we see And how to do we choose to visit The places Of memory Of drama Of trauma Of power and loneliness Of openness and brightness Of darkness How do we choose to stand next to each other And grieve the loss And seize the new day And fight And be gentle and brave And fearless and fragile With a will to fill the gaps With a deal to create paths And roads For the lives to come Eons and eons the sun is gone Eons and eons the light is born Eons and eons emergency Eons and eons I’m in the sea.

Ακούω το νερό Ακούω το βουνό Ακούω τες φωνές Που μες τη γη Η γη της μάνας μου Τζαι του πατέρα μου Η γη των αδερφών Τζαι των φτωχών Φτωσιοί μου άνθρωποι Ούλλο νομίζετε Πως παρατζει εν έσιει Πέρα που σας Ούλλα εφάτε τα Τζαι δεν αφήκετε Κάτι να δώκουμεν Τζαι στους μετά Απ’ όν αντρέπεται Τον κόσμο έσιει τον Αλλά ξιχάνετε Ποια εν η αρκή Απ’ όν αντρέπεται Τον κόσμο έσιει τον Αλλά ξιχάνετε Ποια εν η αρκή Suyu duyarım Dağı duyarım Bu diyarın içinden gelen sesleri duyarım Anamın ülkesi Ve bubam Gardaşların diyarı Ve garibanlar/yoksullar Zavallı insanlarım Sürekli düşünün Başga bir şey yok Gendinin ötesinde Her şeyi aldın yedin Ve hiçbir sey bıragmadın Vermemiz için gelenlere Kim utanmaz Dünya var Ama uyanmaya devam edeng Her şeyin başlangıcı nedir ? Nedir ? Αλλά ξιχάνετε Ποια εν η αρκή

about

This is a first musical footprint from my trip in the different rooms of my human experience so far. It’s intense, it’s overwhelming, it’s sad and playful, political and sentimental. It’s a variety of elements that consist my fragility, my essence, my power. I am this trip; this trip it’s me. It’s poly, it’s multiple, it’s plural, it’s maximal. Went through dark rooms and bright rooftops to come back and lay the notes on my piano genuinely. Please visit polydrama the same way you’d visit your soul: gently yet thoroughly, with softness and bravery.
