Sen

İdo Tatlıses' song 'Sen' delves into the complexities of unresolved emotions and the burden of unspoken grievances. The recurring imagery of the evening and the setting sun symbolizes a time of reflection and introspection. The protagonist finds themselves repeatedly thinking about someone who has left a significant emotional impact on them. The line 'Sanırım içimde birikmişler var' (I think there are things accumulated inside me) suggests a buildup of feelings that have not been addressed, leading to a sense of emotional congestion.

The song's chorus focuses on the 'Sen' (You), who is depicted as someone who constantly covers up their mistakes and lacks self-confidence. This person projects their insecurities onto others, believing that everyone is like them. The repetition of 'haklı herkes haklı' (everyone is right) underscores the protagonist's frustration with this person's inability to take responsibility for their actions. The protagonist feels that while others may criticize this person, the most severe judgment is reserved within themselves, indicating a deep personal hurt.

The song also touches on themes of pride and vulnerability. The line 'Baksana salmışsın gururunu sokaklara' (Look, you've let your pride loose in the streets) suggests that the person has abandoned their pride, perhaps in a reckless or careless manner. This abandonment of pride could be a metaphor for exposing one's vulnerabilities or making poor decisions. The protagonist's promise to 'see everything and be very devastated' indicates a looming confrontation or reckoning, where all these pent-up emotions will finally be addressed. Through its poignant lyrics and emotive delivery, 'Sen' captures the turmoil of dealing with unresolved feelings and the complexities of human relationships.
