Turkish voice over:

Lyrics:

I've never felt alone.
I was alone in a room, on the verge of suicide.
I've felt really bad about myself, but I never thought that someone or a few people would come into the room and make me feel better.
In other words, loneliness has never bothered me,
Because I can't get enough of being alone.
I feel most alone in a room full of people or in a grandstand full of cheering spectators.
I'll quote Ibsen: "The strongest people are often alone."
I've never thought to myself, "Whoa, a blonde is going to come in and fuck me, rub my balls and I'm going to feel better."
No, it won't do any good.
You know people say, "Hey, Friday night, what are we going to do? Are we going to sit around here?"
Yes definitely.
Because there is nothing outside.
Just stupid.
Stupid people flirting with stupid people.
I have never had a need to run into the night.
I hid in bars because I didn't want to hide in factories.
That's all. I apologize on behalf of millions of people, but I have never felt alone.
I am satisfied with myself. The best pastime I know is myself.

Come on; Let's have another glass of wine...
