Nista vise ne ostaje
Affect · Other Songs - Affect
da, znam, ostajem sam
prestaje san, i kraj
Ja borim se
ti digla ruke si, zar ne
i uzalud reci su te
da bice sve kao i pre
kad znam da kasno je
Ref.
Vrisak u oku nazirem
svetla me tama sakriva
istinu strasnu slutim
gori mi u mislima
Vrisak iz oka cuje se
svetla me tama vec sakrila
prolazi noc dok hladan bol
u meni odzvanja
Ti si trag od suza
i strah, jos jedna laz
kako da znam kad ovom kraju dolazi kraj
Ja borim se
ti digla ruke si, zar ne
i uzalud reci su te
bice sve kao i pre
znam da kasno je
Ref.
Nemir me nocima razdire
cujes li strah u recima
misli nam gore, vidis
tu je strasna istina
Ref.
Nemir me nocima razdire
cujes li strah u recima
misli nam gore, vidis
tu je hladan bol
tu je strasna istina
Nista vise ne ostaje
Affect's 'Nista vise ne ostaje' stands as a defining track within the Yugoslav rock canon, embodying the raw emotional intensity characteristic of the genre's post-punk and alternative movements. Released during a period when the band was refining its signature sound, the recording captures the turbulent energy of the era, blending distorted guitars with driving rhythms that became hallmarks of their discography. The song reflects a broader cultural sentiment prevalent across the region, addressing themes of loss and existential uncertainty through a lens of gritty realism. As part of Affect's evolving body of work, this piece demonstrates their commitment to authentic expression, resonating deeply with audiences who appreciate music that prioritizes lyrical honesty and sonic power over polished production. It remains a significant example of how Yugoslav rock artists navigated the complexities of their time while forging a distinct identity.
