Cayarken comes from the verb caymak, which means to go back on, retract, or renege on a promise. It's a less common word than simply saying

Have you ever been completely shocked by how someone can hurt you without seeming to care at all? In "Üzülmedin Mi?", which translates to "Weren't You Sad?", Turkish pop star Simge sings from the perspective of someone whose heart has been broken over and over again. She feels like she's been "shot in the same place" repeatedly, her life shattered by someone who severely deceived her.

The most painful part for the singer is the coldness of her ex-lover. She asks a series of powerful questions:

• "Weren't you sad when you slammed my heart and left?"
• "Didn't you feel small when you broke the promise you made with love?"
• "How can you look into my eyes while saying goodbye?" She can't understand how her partner could be so cruel, especially because she admits she could never hurt them in the same way. It's a song about the disbelief and deep sadness that comes from a one-sided, heartless breakup.
