I am not an acrobat...

...I can not perform these tricks for you
Losing all my balance,
Falling from a wire made for you

Erva daninha a alastrar

"Só eu sei,
Só eu sei que sou terra,
Terra agreste por lavrar,
Silvestre monte daninho,
Amora, fruto sem tratar.

Só eu sei que sou pedra,
Sou pedra dura de talhar,
Sou pedrada em aro,
Calhaus em forma de encastrar.

A cotação é o quiserem dar,
Não tenho jeito para regatear,
Também não sei se a quero aumentar.

Porque eu não sei se me quero polir,
Também não sei se me quero limar,
Também não sei se quero fugir deste animal
Que ando a procurar.

Só eu sei que sou erva,
Erva daninha a alastrar,
Joio trovisco, ameaça
Das ervas doces de enjoar.

Só eu sei que sou barro,
Difícil de se moldar,
Argila com cimento e cérebro,
Nem qualquer um sabe trabalhar.

Em moldes feitos não me sei criar,
Em formas feitas podem-se quebrar,
Também não sei se me quero formar

Porque eu não se me quero polir,
Também não sei se me quero limar,
Também não se quero fugir deste animal
Que ando a procurar."

Running Up That Hill

Placebo no Oeiras Alive09 com o novo álbum que será editado em Junho!

E no fundo da minha memória soou....

Come on, baby, come on, come on, darling,
Let me steal this moment from you now.
Come on angel, come on, come on, darling,
Let's exchange the experience

And if I only could,
Make a deal with God,
And get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems.

Running Up That Hill

It makes sense for me...

In the end, all you can hope for
Is the love you found to equal the pain you've gone through
Are your eyes showing off for mine?
Your face in my hands is everything good I need

My Body is a Cage

My body is a cage that keeps me
From dancing with the one I love
But my mind holds the key

My body is a cage that keeps me
From dancing with the one I love
But my mind holds the key

I'm standing on a stage
Of fear and self-doubt
It's a hollow play
But they'll clap anyway

My body is a cage that keeps me
From dancing with the one I love
But my mind holds the key

You're standing next to me
My mind holds the key

I'm living in an age
That calls darkness light
Though my language is dead
Still the shapes fill my head

I'm living in an age
Whose name I don't know
Though the fear keeps me moving
Still my heart beats so slow

My body is a cage that keeps me
From dancing with the one I love
But my mind holds the key

You're standing next to me
My mind holds the key
My body is a

My body is a cage
We take what we're given
Just because you've forgotten
That don't mean you're forgiven

I'm living in an age
That screams my name at night
But when I get to the doorway
There's no one in sight

My body is a cage that keeps me
From dancing with the one I love
But my mind holds the key

You're standing next to me
My mind holds the key

Set my spirit free
Set my spirit free
Set my body free

Come Into My Heart, David Fonseca



I'll lit the fire, lit the fire tonight
I see your body by the trembling light,
I see light, I see
Let's have our fancy clothes out of the way
I see a hallo but I can't see the face
through the haze, through the

You spit/This spark/That lights/this fuse
that burns/and leads/inside/into
This heart/like red/like white/like dead
live love/a place
A place that you'll call home,
so come

Come into my heart
Love it, make it start
Come into my heart
Love it, rip it apart

I'll lit the fire, lit the fire tonight
There's mixed feelings, but this fire feels right,
it feels right, it feels

We'll get our skinny bones out of the way
I've got this urge and this feeling can't wait,
can't wait, it can't
Your tongue/it turns/and
water/comes it through
and fire/it burns/inside/of you

The words/you said/like poems/like led
like bullets/that melt
In the place that you'll call home
So come

Come into my heart
Love it, make it start
Come into my heart
Love it, rip it apart
Come into my heart
Shine above the stars

Enough for you, enough for two
It's me for you, like tea for two

This heart ain't made of gold
It has no self control
Your love will get me through
I'll give myself to you
I'll give my soul to you
I'll rip my heart in two

For [twenty-eight] years

...
If i was to sing this song, it would go like this...

You know I dreamed about you
for [twenty-eight] years before I saw you
You know I dreamed about you
I missed you for
for [twenty-eight] years



Standing at the punch table swallowing punch
can't pay attention to the sound of anyone
a little more stupid, a little more scared
every minute more unprepared

I made a mistake in my life today
everything I love gets lost in drawers
I want to start over, I want to be winning
way out of sync from the beginning

I wanna hurry home to you
put on a slow, dumb show for you
and crack you up
so you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
god I'm very, very frightening
I'll overdo it

Looking for somewhere to stand and stay
I leaned on the wall and the wall leaned away
Can I get a minute of not being nervous
and not thinking of my dick
My leg is sparkles, my leg is pins
I better get my shit together, better gather my shit in
You could drive a car through my head in five minutes

from one side of it to the other

I wanna hurry home to you
put on a slow, dumb show for you
and crack you up
so you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
god I'm very, very frightening
I'll overdo it

You know I dreamed about you
for twenty-nine years before I saw you
You know I dreamed about you
I missed you for
for twenty-nine years

You know I dreamed about you
for twenty-nine years before I saw you
You know I dreamed about you
I missed you for
for twenty-nine years

...thats how my love goes!

So good to fall in love again and again...will you return it!?!? =)



There'll be times
When my crimes
Will seem almost unforgivable
I give in to sin
Because you have to make this life liveable
But when you think Ive had enough
From your sea of love
I'll take more than another riverfull
And Ill make it all worthwhile
I'll make your heart smile

Strangelove
Strange highs and strange lows
Strangelove
Thats how my love goes
Strangelove
Will you give it to me
Will you take the pain
I will give to you
Again and again
And will you return it

Therell be days
When Ill stray
I may appear to be
Constantly out of reach
I give in to sin
Because I like to practise what I preach
Im not trying to say
Ill have it all my way
Im always willing to learn
When youve got something to teach
And I'll make it all worthwhile
I'll make your heart smile

Pain will you return it
I'll say it again -- pain
Pain will you return it
I wont say it again

I give in
Again and again
I give in
Will you give it to me
I give in
I'll say it again
I give in

I give in
Again and again
I give in
Thats how my love goes
I give in
I'll say it again
I give in

Te Quiero

o original de Pablo Neruda...

"No te quiero sino porque te quiero
y de quererte a no quererte llego
y de esperarte cuando no te espero
pasa mi corazón del frío al fuego.

Te quiero sólo porque a ti te quiero,
te odio sin fin, y odiándote te ruego,
y la medida de mi amor viajero
es no verte y amarte como un ciego.

Tal vez consumirá la luz de enero,
su rayo cruel, mi corazón entero,
robándome la llave del sosiego.

En esta historia sólo yo me muero
y moriré de amor porque te quiero,
porque te quiero, amor,
a sangre y fuego."

...e a tradução...

"Não te quero senão porque te quero,
e de querer-te a não te querer chego,
e de esperar-te quando não te espero,
passa o meu coração do frio ao fogo.

Quero-te só porque a ti te quero,
Odeio-te sem fim e odiando te rogo,
e a medida do meu amor viajante,
é não te ver e amar-te, como um cego.

Talvez consumirá a luz de Janeiro,
seu raio cruel meu coração inteiro,
roubando-me a chave do sossego,
nesta história só eu me morro,
e morrerei de amor porque te quero,
porque te quero amor,
a sangue e fogo."

Can't take my eyes off of you!

you're just too good to be true...lá-lá-lá =D

Na Batucada da Vida...

...porque por muito feliz que me sinta, choro sempre que ouço esta música =P



No dia em que eu apareci no mundo
Juntou uma porção de vagabundo da orgia
De noite, teve samba e batucada
Que acabou de madrugada
Em grossa pancadaria
Depois do meu batismo de fumaça
Mamei um litro e meio de cachaça
Bem puxado
E fui adormecer como um despacho
Deitadinha no capacho na porta dos enjeitados
Cresci olhando a vida sem malícia
Quando um cabo de polícia
Despertou meu coração
E como eu fui pra ele muito boa
Me soltou na rua à toa
Desprezada como um cão
E hoje que eu sou mesmo da virada
E que eu não tenho nada, nada
E por Deus fui esquecida
Irei cada vez mais me esmulambando
Seguirei sempre cantando
Na batucada da vida...

Saudades...

...de dançar debaixo daqueles pinheiros, descalça com os pés sobre a areia morna, enquanto trauteávamos esta canção sem música que nos acompanhasse...

Porque Paris parece estar a anos luz e uma semana se assemelha a uma eternidade...here's looking at you, love!



Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am home again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am whole again

Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am young again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am fun again

However far away I will always love you
However long I stay I will always love you
Whatever words I say I will always love you
I will always love you

Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am free again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am clean again

However far away I will always love you
However long I stay I will always love you
Whatever words I say I will always love you
I will always love you

O Povo é Sereno!

Agora escrevo por aqui!

Porque...

...é que certos momentos, mesmo passado tanto tempo, parecem ter acontecido ainda ontem, enquanto outros que se passaram ainda hoje, parecem ter acontecido numa outra vida!?!?

Retórica, mera retórica!

Quase...

Um pouco mais de sol - eu era brasa,
Um pouco mais de azul - eu era além.
Para atingir, faltou-me um golpe de asa...
Se ao menos eu permanecesse aquém...

Assombro ou paz? Em vão... Tudo esvaído
Num grande mar enganador de espuma;
E o grande sonho despertado em bruma,
O grande sonho - ó dor! - quase vivido...

Quase o amor, quase o triunfo e a chama,
Quase o princípio e o fim - quase a expansão...
Mas na minh'alma tudo se derrama...
Entanto nada foi só ilusão!

De tudo houve um começo ... e tudo errou...
- Ai a dor de ser - quase, dor sem fim...
Eu falhei-me entre os mais, falhei em mim,
Asa que se elançou mas não voou...

Momentos de alma que desbaratei...
Templos aonde nunca pus um altar...
Rios que perdi sem os levar ao mar...
Ânsias que foram mas que não fixei...

Se me vagueio, encontro só indícios...
Ogivas para o sol - vejo-as cerradas;
E mãos de herói, sem fé, acobardadas,
Puseram grades sobre os precipícios...

Num ímpeto difuso de quebranto,
Tudo encetei e nada possuí...
Hoje, de mim, só resta o desencanto
Das coisas que beijei mas não vivi...

Um pouco mais de sol - e fora brasa,
Um pouco mais de azul - e fora além.
Para atingir faltou-me um golpe de asa...
Se ao menos eu permanecesse aquém...

Mário de Sá Carneiro

Because the plan isn't much of a plan...

boomp3.com

The plan it wasn't much of a plan
I just started walking
I had enough of this old town
had nothing else to do
It was one of those nights
you wonder how nobody died
we started talking
You didn't come here to have fun
you said: "well I just came for you"

But do you still love me?
do you feel the same
Do I have a chance
of doing that old dance
with someone I've been
pushing away

And touch we touched the soul
the very soul, the soul of what we were then
With the old schemes of shattered dreams
lying on the floor
You looked at me
no more than sympathy
my lies you have heard them
My stories you have laughed with
my clothes you have torn

And do you still love me?
do you feel the same
And do I have a chance
of doing that old dance again
Is it too late for some of that romance again
Let's go away, we'll never have the chance again

You lost that feeling
You want it again
More than I'm feeling
you'll never get
You've had a go at
all that you know
You lost that feeling
so come down and show

Don't say goodbye
let accusations fly
like in that movie
You know the one where Martin Sheen
waves his arm to the girl on the street
I once told a friend
that nothing really ends
no one can prove it
So I'm asking you now
could it possibly be
that you still love me?
And do you feel the same
Do I have a chance
of doing that old dance again
Is it too late for some of that romance again
Let's go away, we'll never have the chance again

I take it all from you
I take it all from you
I take it all from you
I take it all from you

I take it all from you
I take it all from you

I'm bound to pack it up

I've thought about it for a while
and I've thought about the many miles
but I think it's time that I've gone away

The feelings that you have for me
have gone away it's plain to see
and it looks to me
that you're pulling away

I'm gonna pick it up
I'm gonna pick it up today
I'm bound to pack it up
I'm bound to pack it up
and go away

I found it hard to say to you
that this is what I have to do
but there is no way that I'm gonna stay

there are so many things
you need to know
and I wanna tell you before I go
but it's hard to think of just what to say

I'm gonna pick it up
I'm gonna pick it up today
I'm bound to pack it up
I'm bound to pack it up
and go away

I'm sorry to leave you all alone
you're sitting silent by the phone
but we've always known there would come a day

The bus is warm and softly lit
and a hundred people are ridin' it
I guess I'm just another running away

I'm gonna pick it up
I'm gonna pick it up today
I'm bound to pack it up
I'm bound to pack it up
and go away

Oh yeah, yeah
