Pobjeg'o sam

Opca opasnost · Other Songs - Opca opasnost

Sve ono vazno
ti nisam stigao reci
trazio sam kraci put ka sreci
i negdje usput izgubio tebe

A ne znam gdje sam isao
i sta sam to htio
bjezao sam valjda od samog sebe
i negdje usput izgubio tebe

Ref.
Da ti kazem, oprosti
to tako jadno zvuci sad
kao i ona prica
kako sam bio klinac
kako sam bio premlad

Istina je, pobjego sam
priznajem ti sada
ti si me cekala tamo
na nasem mjestu

Pobjegao sam od nas
od ovog grada
bilo je ljetno vece
posljednjim vlakom

Pobjegao sam
kao zadnje smece
jer sam se bojao ljubavi
jer sam se bojao srece

Samo srusene snove
sto me jos bude nocu
ljubav bez ljubavi, laz i samocu
to sam nasao trazeci sebe

Izmedju dva pijanstva
mi je postalo jasno
da se ne mogu vratit i da je prekasno
i da sam zauvijek izgubio tebe

Pobjeg'o sam

Opca opasnost's 1989 single 'Pobjeg'o sam' stands as a defining anthem of the Yugoslav rock revival, capturing the turbulent spirit of the late 1980s. The track exemplifies the genre's fusion of traditional folk melodies with modern rock instrumentation, creating a sound that resonated deeply across the former Yugoslavia. Released during a period of intense political and social change, the song's themes of escape and freedom mirrored the collective desire for liberation. Its enduring popularity stems from its raw emotional delivery and the band's ability to craft anthems that transcended regional boundaries. As a cornerstone of the era's musical landscape, the recording remains a critical reference point for fans of post-war Balkan rock and those interested in the cultural history of the region during the breakup of Yugoslavia.
