Antidepresan (feat. Mabel Matiz)

In 'Antidepresan,' Mert Demir, featuring Mabel Matiz, delves into the depths of emotional turmoil and the struggle to cope with the loss of a loved one. The song's lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person who is grappling with intense feelings of sadness and desperation. The opening lines, 'Bazen geceleri / Oturup ağlıyorum,' set the tone for the song, revealing the protagonist's nightly ritual of crying and feeling overwhelmed by sorrow. This emotional state is further emphasized by the metaphor of 'en yakın dostum şişelerin dibi,' indicating that the protagonist's closest companion is the bottom of a bottle, a common symbol for seeking solace in alcohol.

The chorus, 'Gitme bur'dan / Sen olmadan ben asla yaşayamam,' is a heartfelt plea for the loved one to stay, as the protagonist feels incapable of living without them. The repeated mention of 'ne ilaç ne antidepresan' highlights the futility of medication in alleviating the emotional pain, suggesting that the protagonist's suffering is beyond the reach of conventional remedies. This sentiment is encapsulated in the line 'Çözemedim, valla' çok enteresan,' expressing bewilderment at the complexity and intensity of their emotions.

Throughout the song, there is a recurring theme of trying to hold on and make things work, as seen in 'Bitmesin istedim, uğraştım deli gibi.' Despite the protagonist's efforts, the sense of impending loss remains, and the song ends on a note of desperation and unresolved anguish. The collaboration with Mabel Matiz adds a layer of depth to the song, as his unique vocal style complements Mert Demir's emotive delivery, creating a powerful and moving piece that resonates with anyone who has experienced the pain of a broken relationship.
