Tuna In The Brine - Silverchair



I found the keys to my heart when everyone's heart
Seems so calm
And you found the lock
To my dorm and opened the door to my trust
Found…. my vestry

The light in my darkest hour is fear
Denies me of anything good
So don't lose your heart you'll need it
And don't lose your heart
You'll have to take another pill and tell another lie
And lie amongst your lies like tuna in the brine.

Take everything that you're not
and don't be so Scared to temper with evidence
Coz you come along for the sun if you come at all

The light in my darkest hour is fear
Denies me of anything good
So don't lose your heart you'll need it

And don't lose your heart
You'll have to lie amongst your lies like tuna in the brine
And don't lose your heart
To lose your heart you'll have to take, take and take

Painting a lie seeing the colours
But you seem closer to everything

Closer now than we ever have been
We're closer now than we ever should be
Closer now than we've ever been before
Closer to everything

Busking for change and changing everything
Feeble fables aren't changing many things
It's my time to shine like a tuna in the brine
For my pregnant paws aren't changing anything

To all of the animals who keep sipping the sweat from my back
You're making me ill and I can't get enough
So take another pill and tell another lie
And lie amongst your lies like tuna in the brine

You Are My Sunshine - Johnny Cash

The other night, dear, as i lay sleeping
I dreamed i held you in my arms
When i awoke, dear, i was mistaken
So i hung my head and cried

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You'll never know, dear, how much i love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

I'll always love you and make you happy
If you will only say the same
But if you leave me to love another
You'll regret it all someday

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You'll never know, dear, how much i love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

You told me once, dear, you really loved me
And no one else could come between.
But now you've left me and love another,
You have shattered all my dreams.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You'll never know, dear, how much i love you

Please don't take my sunshine away

Questões III - Alice Ruiz

Se a preguiça é pecado,
o que Deus estará fazendo agora?
Em que se ocupa aquele que tudo pode?
Terá restado algo por fazer
depois que o mundo foi criado?

Se o desejo é fraqueza,
Deus nunca deseja?
Mas se é verdade que nos criou,
algo nele desejou.

Se a vaidade é um erro,
por que nos fez
À sua imagem e semelhança?
Ou terá sido o contrário?

Por que criar alguém
capaz de duvidar da criação?
Por que nós e ele não?

Baby Pain - Fluke





I'm flesh and blood - Baby,
I'm skin and bone,
every inch of me a man.
I'm meek and mild - Baby,
From the head to toe,
and I've tried to be the best I can.
But I've been mad - Baby,
I've been confused,
I know that's hard to understand.
But I've got dreams - Baby,
and they need you.
You've got the future in your hands.

Baby Pain - Baby Pain.

I was alone - Baby,
love pulled me through,
out of the darkness came a sign.
Now that was you - Baby,
you pulled me through,
you came to me and saved my life.
My bleeding heart - Baby,
still beating true,
still beats to keep your dreams alive.

Baby Pain - Baby Pain.
Still beating strong enough for two.

Baby Pain - Baby Pain.
Still beating here for me and you.

I've got the blues - Baby,
you got 'em too,
I know there's something we can try.
Now there's a cure - Baby,
It's good for two,
no sense in wasting no more time.
Give me your hand - Baby,
I'll give you mine,
It's time to leave the past behind.
Now we can try - Baby,
see what we find,
then make it anything we like.

Baby Pain - Baby Pain - Baby Pain - Baby Pain.

Give me your hand baby,
give me your hand…

The Higher I Go - The Verve



When you come
I feel that I
I've never been
Here before
I don't even
Know the score
And you
Tell me the truth
I called once
From everywhere
And faces
That will
Have me there
The higher I go
The more
I seem to grow
The further I see
The more
You write to me

When you go
I feel that I
I've never been
Here before
I don't even
Know the score
And you tell me
The truth
I called once
From everywhere
And faces
That will
Have me there
The higher I go
The more
I seem to grow
The further I see
The more
You write to me

Baby I Love You - Ramones



Have I ever told you
How good it feels to hold you
It isn't easy to explain

And though I'm really trying
I think I may start crying
My heart can't wait another day
When you kiss me I just gotta
Kiss me I just gotta
Kiss me I just gotta say

Baby I love you (c'mon baby)
Baby I love you
Baby I love you

I love only you

I can't live without you
I love everything about you
I can't help it if I feel this way

Oh, I'm so glad I found you
I want my arms around you
I love to hear you call my name
Tell me that you feel
Tell me that you feel
Tell me that you feel the same

Baby I love you (c'mon baby)
Baby I love you
Baby I love you

I love only you

Oh, I'm so glad I found you
I want my arms around you
I love to hear you call my name
Tell me that you feel
Tell me that you feel
Tell me that you feel the same

Baby I love you
Baby I love you
Baby I love you

I love only You!

Joyride - Metric



What have we started?
Reverse full commotion
Predictions and planets aligned
Fire my apprentice
The expert back benches
Predict or decline
Send an explosive goodbye
To my restraint
Cover my ears and close my eyes
This is our last joyride
If the abyss doesn't hide
Then I turn my ear
I just cover my ears and close my eyes
And when our next joyride
Hits an abyss and we collide
You cover my ears if I cover your eyes
No stopping momentum
Slow motion collision
No stopping momentum
Slow motion collision
Ask me a question
I'm under hypnosis
Unconscious and barely alive
I feel terrific
Effect soporific
My honest reply
Until the opposite side
Returns full strength
Cover my ears and close my eyes
And when the next joyride
Hits an abyss and we collide
You cover my ears if I cover your eyes
No stopping momentum
Slow motion collision
No stopping momentum
Slow motion collision
No stopping momentum
Slow motion collision
No stopping momentum
Slow motion collision

Coffee & TV - Blur



Do you feel like a chain store
Practically floored
One of many zeros
Kicked down and bored

Your ears are full but you're empty
Holding out your heart
To people who never really
Care how you are

Chorus:
So give me coffee and TV, easily
I've seen so much, I'm going blind
and I'm braindead virtually
Sociability is hard enough for me
Take me away from this big bad world
and agree to marry me
So we can start over again

Do you go to the country
It isn't very far
There's people there who will hurt you
cos of who you are

Your ears are full of their language
there's wisdom there you're sure
Till the words start slurring
And you can't find the door

So give me coffee and TV, easily
I've seen so much, I'm going blind
and I'm braindead virtually
Sociability is hard enough for me
Take me away from this big bad world
and agree to marry me
So we can start over again

Where is My Mind - Pixies



Ooh, stop.

With your feet on the air and your head on the ground,
Try this trick and spin it, (yeah) yeah,
Your head will collapse but there's nothing in it,
And you'll ask yourself:
"Where is my mind?"
"Where is my mind?"
"Where is my mind?"

Way out in the water,
See it swimming?

I was swimming in the Caribbean,
Animals were hiding behind the rocks,
Except the little fish,
But they told me this is where it's gonna talk to me honeybunny:
"Where is my mind?"
"Where is my mind?"
"Where is my mind?"

Way out in the water,
See it swimming?

With your feet on the air and your head on the ground,
Try this trick and spin it, yeah,
Your head will collapse but there's nothing in it,
And you'll ask yourself:
"Where is my mind?"

Way out in the water,
See it swimming?

Spirit In The Sky - Norman Greenbaum



When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place that's the best
When I lay me down to die
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
That's where I'm gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place that's the best

Prepare yourself you know it's a must
Gotta have a friend in Jesus
So you know that when you die
He's gonna recommend you
To the spirit in the sky
Gonna recommend you
To the spirit in the sky
That's where you're gonna go when you die
When you die and they lay you to rest
You're gonna go to the place that's the best

Never been a sinner I never sinned
I got a friend in Jesus
So you know that when I die
He's gonna set me up with
The spirit in the sky
Oh set me up with the spirit in the sky
That's where I'm gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best
Go to the place that's the best

(Now I have a friend in Jesus lalala)

I Feel Much Better - Small Faces



easy and lazy we go
it seems so hazy and slow
(shoop shoop duweddy weddy)
long before the long before we know
(shanga langa langa dulang)
times were so high they were low

i'm only writing the rhyme
dont find me taking my time
please pass me my glass of wine
i feel much better
i feel much better
i feel much
(shoop shoop duweddy weddy x2)
please feel aat home to come and go
(shanga langa langa dulang)
easy and lazy and slow
(shoop shoop duweddy weddy)
smiling so nicely to know
(shanga langa langa dulang)
winds of good fortune must blow your way

these things wont come in a day
these things are coming to stay
there's really not much to say
i feel much better
i feel much better
i feel much

Little Trouble Girl - Sonic Youth



If you want me to I will be the one
That is always good and you'll love me too
But you'll never know what I feel inside
That I'm really bad, little trouble girl

Remember mother? We were close.
Very, very close.
You taught me how to feel good
Flirt and laugh, be understood
Curl my hair and eyelash
Pinch my cheeks and do my lips
Swing my hips just like you
Smile and behave
A circle of perfection, it's what you gave
Then one day I met a guy
He stole my heart, no alibi
He said "Romance is a ticket to paradise"
Mama, I'm not too young to try
We kissed, we hugged
We were close. Very, very close.
We danced in the sand
And the water rose, higher and higher
Until I found myself floating in the sky
I'm sorry mother, I'd rather fight than have to lie

If you want me to, I will be the one
That is always good, and you'll love me too
But you'll never know what I feel inside
That I'm really bad, little trouble girl
Little trouble girl [backup vocals repeat x10]
Cross my heart and hope to die
I can not tell a lie

Um Pouco Assustador - Arnaldo Baptista & Patrulha do Espaço



Olha aqui, você quer ficar aqui?
Nós estamos numa boa e faz muito tempo desde que vieram aqui pela ùltima vez.
Por que não telefonei? Acontece que perdi seu telefone e endereço.
Como vai você? Qual é seu nome mesmo?
É são jatos de energia retilínios emitidos e eu curto isso pacas!
É um pouco assustador não é?
Mas o principal é ter você do meu lado.
O principal é ter visto você animado, nesses dias de hoje há poucas chances de se ter um amigo sincero.
Somos todos engolidos pelo sistema não? Mas me diga uma coisa: essa música não excita você?

E eu aqui, lutando pra lembrar.
Você aí, é pena que seja um pouco assustador não é?
Mas me diga uma coisa de novo: essa conversa não excita você?
Eu aqui, você aí, mas parece que é melhor você mostrar a cor do seu dinheiro logo... logo!
Mas parece q é melhor você mostrar a cor do seu dinheiro...

Another Day - The Cure



The sun rises slowly
On another day
The eastern sky grows cold
Winter in water colours
Shades of grey

Something
Something holds me
Holds me hypnotized

I stare at the window
Stare at the window
Waiting for the day to go
Winter in water colours
Shades of grey

Sideways in Reverse - Mark Lanegan



C'mon
On a dead high wire we'll make a connection
Never knowing my shepherd never knowing my witness
C'mon now honey you're so sick and pretty
C'mon now sugar 'cause you know it ain't easy
Bang bang bang let me shoot it all over
Go down people give me your love
You're another mistake, you're a sign of disaster
Go down people give me your love
Gonna shake shake shake as a matter of course
Going down goin' down people give me your love
It fights like a bitch and it kicks like a horse
Goin' down goin' down people give me your love
Ain't you glad ain't you glad ain't you glad little sister
Go down people give me your love
Sideways in reverse I don't know any better
Go down people give me your love
You gotta keep it running clean keep on fixin the machine
(gonna give me your love) Goin' down goin' down people give me your love
Keep it running clean keep on fixin the machine
(gonna give me your love) Goin' down goin' down people give me your love
Going down people give me your love
Going down people give me your love
Goin' down goin' down people give me your love

*tocando frenéticamente na minha cabeça durante a prova de IED
**é... eu não fui no show dele :(

Shake me Down - Cage the Elephant



Shake me down,
Not a lot of people left around,
Who knows now,
Softly laying on the ground, ooooh
Not a lot people left around, ooooh. ooooh

In my life, I have seen,
People walking to the sea,
Just to find memories,
Plagued by constant misery,
Their eyes cast down,
Fixed upon the ground,
Their eyes cast down

I'll keep my eyes fixed on the sun

Shake me down,
Cut my hair on a silver cloud,
Broken sound,
Softly laying on the ground, ooooh
Not a lot people left around, ooooh, ooooh

In my past, bittersweet,
There's no love between the sheets,
Taste the blood, broken dreams,
Lonely times indeed,
With eyes cast down,
Fixed upon the ground,
Eyes cast down

I'll keep my eyes fixed on the sun

Turn back now its time for me to let go,
Way down had to find a place to lay low,
Lampshade turned around into a light post

Walk around the corner,
Never saw it coming still,
I try to make a move,
It almost stopped me from belief,
I don't wanna know the future,
But I'm like rolling thunder,

Even on a cloudy day,
Even on a cloudy day, 3x

Even on a cloudy day,
I'll keep my eyes fixed on the 2x

I'll keep my eyes fixed on the sun

Shake me down,Not a lot of people left around, ooooh, ooooh

Sunday - Sonic Youth

andei pensando no Culkin...



Sunday comes alone again
A perfect day for a quiet friend
And you - you will set it free

I see new morning 'round your face
Everybody says it's another phase
And now - now it's come to me

I see the magic in your eyes
I see it come as no surprise
And you - you turn your eyes away
Yeh you - you turn it all away

I guess it's true it's never too late
Still I don't know what to do today
Oh why can't I set you free
Will you do the same for me

Sunday comes and Sunday goes
Sunday always seems to move so slow
To me - and here she comes again
A perfect ending to a perfect day
A perfect ending what can I say
To you - lonely Sunday friend
With you - Sunday never ends

... e se foi o domingo, né?! fechou certinho...

Não Amo Niguém - Cazuza (Barão Vermelho)



Eu ontem fui dormir todo encolhido
Agarrando uns quatro travesseiros
Chorando bem baixinho, bem baixinho, baby
Pra nem eu nem Deus ouvir
Fazendo festinha em mim mesmo
Como um neném, até dormir

Sonhei que eu caía do vigésimo andar
E não morria
Ganhava três milhões e meio de dólares
Na loteria
E você me dizia com a voz terna, cheia de malícia
Que me queria pra toda vida

Mal acordei, já dei de cara
Com a tua cara no porta-retrato
Não sei por que que de manhã
Toda manhã parece um parto
Quem sabe, depois de um tapa
Eu hoje vou matar essa charada

Se todo alguém que ama
Ama pra ser correspondido
Se todo alguém que eu amo
É como amar a lua inacessível
É que eu não amo ninguém
Não amo ninguém
Eu não amo ninguém, parece incrível
Não amo ninguém
E é só amor que eu respiro

Lucky Man - The Verve



Happiness
More or less
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh my, my
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know just where I am

But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn?
All the love I have is in my mind?

Well, I'm a lucky man
With fire in my hands

Happiness
Something in my own place
I'm standing naked
Smiling, I feel no disgrace
With who I am
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know just where I am

But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn?
All the love I have is in my mind?

I hope you understand
I hope you understand

Gotta love that'll never die

Happiness
More or less
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know
Oh my, my
Oh my, my
Oh my, my
Oh my, my

Gotta love that'll never die
Gotta love that'll never die
No, no
I'm a lucky man

It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh my, my
Oh my, my
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh my, my
Oh my, my

O Segredo dos Seres e do Mundo - Albert Camus

Sentia-me à vontade em tudo, isso é verdade, mas ao mesmo tempo nada me satisfazia. Cada alegria fazia-me desejar outra. Ia de festa em festa. Acontecia-me dançar noites a fio, cada vez mais louco com os seres e com a vida. Por vezes, já bastante tarde, nessas noites em que a dança, o álcool leve, o meu desenfreamento, o violento abandono de cada qual, me lançavam para um arroubo ao mesmo tempo lasso e pleno, parecia-me, no extremo da fadiga e no lapso de um segundo, compreender, enfim, o segredo dos seres e do mundo. Mas a fadiga desaparecia no dia seguinte e, com ela, o segredo; e eu atirava-me outra vez.

(Albert Camus, em "A Queda")

A Beleza da Tragédia - Oscar Wilde

É frequente desencadearem-se as verdadeiras tragédias da vida de uma maneira tão pouco artística que nos magoam com a sua crua violência, a sua tremenda incoerência, carecendo absolutamente de sentido, sem o mínimo estilo. Afectam-nos do mesmo modo que a vulgaridade. Causam-nos uma impressão de pura força bruta contra a qual nos revoltamos. Por vezes, porém, cruzamo-nos nas nossas vidas com uma tragédia repassada de elementos de beleza artística. Se esses elementos estéticos são autênticos, todo o episódio apela à nossa apreciação do efeito dramático. De repente deixamos de ser actores e passamos a espectadores da peça. Ou antes, somos ambas as coisas. Observamo-nos, e todo o encanto do espectáculo nos arrebata.

(Oscar Wilde, em "O Retrato de Dorian Gray")

Going Going Gone - Bob Dylan



I've just reached a place
Where the willow don't bend.
There's not much more to be said
It's the top of the end.
I'm going,
I'm going,
I'm gone.

I'm closin' the book
On the pages and the text
And I don't really care
What happens next.
I'm just going,
I'm going,
I'm gone.

I been hangin' on threads,
I been playin' it straight,
Now, I've just got to cut loose
Before it gets late.
So I'm going,
I'm going,
I'm gone.

Grandma said, "Boy, go and follow your heart
And you'll be fine at the end of the line.
All that's gold isn't meant to shine.
Don't you and your one true love ever part."

I been walkin' the road,
I been livin' on the edge,
Now, I've just got to go
Before I get to the ledge.
So I'm going,
I'm just going,
I'm gone.

A Desgraça do Sonhador - Fiódor Dostoiévski

E vocês sabem o que é um sonhador, cavalheiros? É um pecado personificado, uma tragédia misteriosa, escura e selvagem, com todos os seus horrores frenéticos, catástrofes, devaneios e fins infelizes... um sonhador é sempre um tipo difícil de pessoa porque ele é enormemente imprevisível: umas vezes muito alegre, às vezes muito triste, às vezes rude, noutras muito compreensivo e enternecedor, num momento um egoísta e noutro capaz dos mais honoráveis sentimentos... não é uma vida assim uma tragédia? Não é isto um pecado, um horror? Não é uma caricatura? E não somos todos mais ou menos sonhadores?

(Fiódor Dostoiévski, em "Escritos Ocasionais")

O Jeito Que Isso É - Charles Bukowski

o inferno está lotado ainda

você sempre pensa que você está
sozinho.

e você nunca pode dizer
a ninguém que
você está no inferno
ou eles vão pensar
que você está
louco.

mas ser louco é
estar no inferno
e ser sensato
também.

aqueles que escapam do inferno
nunca falam sobre
isso
e nada mais
incomoda eles
depois
disso.
Quero dizer, coisas como
falta de uma refeição,
ir para a cadeia,
bater seu carro
ou
mesmo
morrer.

quando você perguntar-lhes,
"como as coisas estão
indo? "
eles vão responder: "bem,
muito bem ... "

uma vez que você foi para o inferno
e voltou
é o bastante, é a
mais silenciosa celebração
conhecida.

uma vez que você foi para o inferno
e voltou,
você não olha para trás
quando o chão
range.
o sol está no alto a
meia-noite

e coisas como
os olhos de ratos
ou um velho pneu
em um terreno baldio
pode torná-lo
feliz.

uma vez que você foi para o inferno
e voltou.

Young Folks - Peter Bjorn And John



If I told you things I did before
Told you how I used to be
Would you go along with someone like me?
If you knew my story word for word
Had all of my history
Would you go along with someone like me?

I did before and had my share
It didn't lead nowhere
I would go along with someone like you
It doesn't matter what you did
Who you were hanging with
We could stick around and see this night through

And we don't care about the young folks
Talkin' 'bout the young style
And we don't care about the old folks
Talkin' 'bout the old style too
And we don't care about their own faults
Talkin' 'bout our own style
All we care 'bout is talking
Talking only me and you

Usually when things has gone this far
People tend to disappear
No one will surprise me unless you do

I can tell there's something goin' on
Hours seem to disappear
Everyone is leaving I'm still with you

It doesn't matter what we do
Where we are going to
We can stick around and see this night through

And we don't care about the young folks
Talkin' 'bout the young style
And we don't care about the old folks
Talkin' 'bout the old style too
And we don't care about their own faults
Talkin' 'bout our own style
All we care 'bout is talking
Talking only me and you

And we don't care about the young folks
Talkin' 'bout the young style
And we don't care about the old folks
Talkin' 'bout the old style too
And we don't care about their own faults
Talkin' 'bout our own style
All we care 'bout is talking
Talking only me and you
Talking only me and you

Talking only me and you
Talking only me and you

Noite e Dia - Alice Ruiz

Não me agradam
essas coisas que despertam
barulho, susto, água fria
tudo na minha cara
mais nenhum sonho por perto.

Não me agradam
essas coisas que adormecem
vazio, escuro, calmaria
tudo que lembra morte
quando nada mais dá certo.

Não me agradam
essas coisas sem poesia
uma noite só noite
um dia só dia.

Hurt - Johnny Cash



I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real

The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

(Chorus)
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end

And you could have it all
My empire of dirt

I will let you down
I will make you hurt..

I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair

Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here

(Chorus)
What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end

And you could have it all
My empire of dirt

I will let you down
I will make you hurt

If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

[e eu sei que é do Nine Inch Nails, mas eu prefiro a versão do Cash :)]

Tu Tens Um Medo - Cecília Meireles

Acabar.
Não vês que acabas todo o dia.
Que morres no amor.
Na tristeza.
Na dúvida.
No desejo.
Que te renovas todo dia.
No amor.
Na tristeza.
Na dúvida.
No desejo.
Que és sempre outro.
Que és sempre o mesmo.
Que morrerás por idades imensas.
Até não teres medo de morrer.
E então serás eterno.
Não ames como os homens amam.
Não ames com amor.
Ama sem amor.
Ama sem querer.
Ama sem sentir.
Ama como se fosses outro.
Como se fosses amar.
Sem esperar.
Tão separado do que ama, em ti,
Que não te inquiete
Se o amor leva à felicidade,
Se leva à morte,
Se leva a algum destino.
Se te leva.
E se vai, ele mesmo...
Não faças de ti
Um sonho a realizar.
Vai.
Sem caminho marcado.
Tu és o de todos os caminhos.
Sê apenas uma presença.
Invisível presença silenciosa.
Todas as coisas esperam a luz,
Sem dizerem que a esperam.
Sem saberem que existe.
Todas as coisas esperarão por ti,
Sem te falarem.
Sem lhes falares.
Sê o que renuncia
Altamente:
Sem tristeza da tua renúncia!
Sem orgulho da tua renúncia!
Abre as tuas mãos sobre o infinito.
E não deixes ficar de ti
Nem esse último gesto!
O que tu viste amargo,
Doloroso,
Difícil,
O que tu viste inútil
Foi o que viram os teus olhos
Humanos,
Esquecidos...
Enganados...
No momento da tua renúncia
Estende sobre a vida
Os teus olhos
E tu verás o que vias:
Mas tu verás melhor...
... E tudo que era efêmero se desfez.
E ficaste só tu, que é eterno.

You Were The Last High - The Dandy Warhols



I am alone but adored
By a hundred thousand more
Then I said when you were the last (high)
And I have known love
Like a whore
From at least ten thousand more
Then I swore when you were the last

When you were the last high
Igh-igh-igh
Igh-igh-igh

You were awake
And I should've stayed
But wondered
I was only out for a day
Out for a day
It was Chicago for a moment and then
It was Paris and London for a few days
But I am alone but adored
By a hundred thousand more
Then I swore when you were the last

When you were the last high
Igh-igh-igh
Igh-igh-igh
Igh-igh

When you were the last high
Igh-igh-igh
Igh-igh-igh
Igh-igh

I was the first to have spoken
And I said just about
All of the things you shouldn't say
So maybe you loved me but now
Maybe you don't
And maybe you'll call me
Maybe you won't (oh)

So I am alone but adored
By a hundred thousand more
Then I said when you were the last (high)
And I have known love
Like a whore
From at least ten thousand more
Then I swore when you were the last -

When you were the last high
Igh-igh-igh
Igh-igh-igh
Igh-igh

And you were the last high
Igh-igh-igh
Igh-igh-igh
Igh-igh

Hey - Pixies



Hey
been trying to meet you
hey
must be a devil between us
or whores in my head
whores at my door
whores in my bed
but hey
where
have you
been if you go i will surely die
we're chained

uh said the man to the lady
uh said the lady to the man she adored
and the whores like a choir
go uh all night
and mary ain't you tired of this
uh
is
the
sound
that the mother makes when the baby breaks
we're chained

Busque Amor Novas Artes, Novo Engenho - Luís Vaz de Camões

Busque Amor novas artes, novo engenho
Para matar-me, e novas esquivanças,
Que não pode tirar-me as esperanças,
Que mal me tirará o que eu não tenho.

Olhai de que esperanças me mantenho!
Vede que perigosas seguranças!
Que não temo contrastes nem mudanças,
Andando em bravo mar, perdido o lenho.

Mas, conquanto não pode haver desgosto
Onde esperança falta, lá me esconde
Amor um mal, que mata e não se vê,

Que dias há que n'alma me tem posto
Um não sei quê, que nasce não sei onde,
Vem não sei como e dói não sei porquê.

Hjartað Hamast - Sigur Rós



Hjartað Hamast
Eins Og Alltaf
En Nú Úr Takt Við Tímann
Týndur Og Gleymdur Heima Hjá Mér
Alveg Að Springa Í Gegnum Nefið
Sný Upp Á Sveitta Sængina
Stari Á Ryðið Sem Vex Á Mér
Étur Sig Inní Skelina
Stend Upp Mig Svimar
Það Molnar Af Mér
Ég Fer Um Á Fótum
Geng Fram Hjá Mér
Klæði Mig Nakinn
Og Fer Svo Úr
Vakinn En Sofinn
Sef Ekki Dúr

Tala Upphátt Og Ferðast Inni Í Mér Leita
Ég Leita Af Lífi Um Stund
Ég Stóð Í Stað
Með Von Að Vin Ég Vinn Upp Smá Tíma
Leita Að Ágætis Byrjun
En Verð Að Vonbrigðum

Hjartað Stoppar
Hreyfist Ekki
Kem Gangráð Fyrir (Sem Ég Kingi Og Fel)
Finn Startkapal (Og Kveiki Í Mér)
Sé Allt Tvöfalt (Tvöfalt Svart)
Kerfisbilun (Heilinn Neitar)
Held Áfram Að Leita
Óstjórnandi (Upplýsingar)
Þarf Aftur Að Mata (Mata Mig)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

O coração golpeia,
Como sempre, mas desta vez
Fora do ritmo com o tempo
Perdido e esquecido em casa
Prestes a explodir pelo nariz
Volto-me ao suor das cobertas
Observo a ferrugem que cresce em mim
Que come lá embaixo da concha
Eu paro em pé, tonto / atordoado
Eu me esfarelo
Ando em círculos
Ando após mim mesmo
Tiro toda minha roupa
E completamente nu
Acordado mas posto para dormir
Eu não durmo nem o mínimo

Eu falo alto e viajo por dentro de mim mesmo
Vasculhando procurando por vida por um instante que seja
Fico parado em meu lugar
Com a esperança como amiga e ganho um tempo
Procuro por um começo perfeito
Mas ele se torna um desapontamento

O coração pára
Não se mexe
Eu insiro um marcapasso (que engulo e escondo)
Encontro um cabo de ligar (e me ligo)
Vejo tudo dobrado (duplo escuro)
Falha do sistema (o cérebro recusa)
Continuo a procurar (...)
Incontrolável (informação)
Eu tenho que alimentar (me alimentar)

Hollow Log - Beck



Go where you want to
Do the things you feel
Walk around with a broken leg
And a hundred dollar bill

Get yourself a pistol
Get yourself a dog
Stay up all night gettin' drunk
Sleeping in a hollow log

Walk 'til you're restless
Sleep 'til you're tired
Wake up without thinking
You're the one that I desire
