Could You Be The One? - Hüsker Dü






Could you be the one they talk about?
Hiding inside, behind another door?
Is it only happiness you want?
Does wanting a feeling matter any more?

It doesn't mean that much to me
Sometimes I don't mean that much to you
And I don't even know what I'm hiding for

And I don't even know what I'm crying for
Don't even know what I'm hiding for

Could you be the one they talk about?
Life is a game that only you can make
Maybe I'm about to throw it out
I've given it all, that's all I can take

Could you be the one
Could you be the one
Could you be the one that's hanging all around

Don't even know what I'm hiding for
Don't even know what I'm crying for
Don't even know, could you be the only
Broken hearted one

Stronger Than Me - Amy Winehouse


Stronger Than Me - Amy Winehouse


You should be stronger than me
You've been here seven years longer than me
Don't you know you supposed to be the man?
Not pale in comparison to who you think I am
You always wanna talk it through - I don't care
I always have to comfort you when I'm there
But that's what I need you to do - Stroke my hair
Cause I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady, and you my lady boy


You should be stronger than me
But instead you're longer than frozen turkey
Why'd you always put me in control
All I need is for my man to live up to his role
You always wanna talk it through - I'm okay
I always have to comfort you every day
But that's what I need you to do ? Are you gay?
Cause I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady, and you my lady boy


He said the respect I made you earn
Thought you had so many lessons to learn?
I said you don't know what love is, get a grip
Sounds as if you're reading from some other tired script?
I'm not gonna meet your mother anytime
I just wanna grip your body over mine
Please tell me why you think that's a crime
I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady, and you my lady boy


You should be stronger than me
You should be stronger than me
You should be stronger than me
You should be stronger than me

Working Man - Rush



I get up at seven, yeah,
And I go to work at nine.
I got no time for livin',
Yes, I'm workin' all the time.

It seems to me
I could live my life
A lot better than I think I am.
I guess that's why they call me,
They call me the working man.

They call me the working man.
I guess that's what I am.

I get home at five o'clock,
And I take myself out a nice, cold beer.
Always seem to be wonderin'
Why there's nothin' goin' down here.

Well they call me the working man.
I guess that's what I am

Not Fair - Lily Allen



Oh he treats me with respect
He says he loves me all the time
He calls me 15 times a day
He likes to make sure that I'm fine
You know I've never met a man who's made me feel quite so secure
He's not like all them other boys
They're all so dumb and immature

There's just one thing that's getting in the way
When we go up to bed you're just no good
Its such a shame
I look into your eyes I want to get to know you
And then you make this noise and its apparent it's all over

It's not fair
And I think you're really mean
I think you're really mean
I think you're really mean
Oh you're supposed to care
But you never make me scream
You never make me scream

Oh it's not fair
And it's really not ok
It's really not ok
It's really not ok
Oh you're supposed to care
But all you do is take
Yeah all you do is take

Oh I lie here in the wet patch
In the middle of the bed
I'm feeling pretty damn hard done by
I spent ages giving head
Then I remember all the nice things that you ever said to me
Maybe I'm just overreacting maybe you're the one for me

There's just one thing that's getting in the way
When we go up to bed you're just no good
It's such a shame
I look into your eyes I want to get to know you
And then you make this noise and it's apparent it's all over

It's not fair
And I think you're really mean
I think you're really mean
I think you're really mean
Oh you're supposed to care
But you never make me scream
You never make me scream

Oh it's not fair
And it's really not ok
It's really not ok
It's really not ok
Oh you're supposed to care
But all you do is take
Yeah all you do is take

There's just one thing that's getting in the way
When we go up to bed you're just no good
It's such a shame
I look into your eyes I want to get to know you
And then you make this noise and its apparent it's all over

It's not fair
And I think you're really mean
I think you're really mean
I think you're really mean
Oh you're supposed to care
But you never make me scream
You never make me scream

Oh it's not fair
And it's really not ok
It's really not ok
It's really not ok
Oh you're supposed to care
But all you do is take
Yeah all you do is take

Kick In The Eye - Bauhaus



And he spoke of pastures green
I was never told why
Each journey lasts an age
And my throat feels dry
It must be the lesson
Hidden deep inside
It must be the lesson
So roll the tide

So I began the crossing
My throat burned dry
Searching for Satori
The kick in the eye
I am the end of reproduction
Given no direction
Every care is taken
In my rejection

Kick in the eye
Kick in the eye
Kick in the eye
Kick in the eye

Every care is taken
With my rejection
And my abduction
To my addiction
Every care is taken
With my protection
And my abduction
From my addiction

Kick in the eye
Kick in the eye
Kick in the eye
Kick in the eye

You Know I'm No Good - Amy Winehouse




Meet you downstairs in the bar and heard
Your rolled up sleeves in your skull T-shirt
You say "why did you do it with him today?"
And sniffed me out like I was Tanqueray

'Cause you're my fella, my guy
Hand me your Stella and fly
By the time I'm out the door
You tear me down like Roger Moore

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was trouble
You know that I'm no good

Upstairs in bed with my ex-boy
He's in a place, but I can't get joy
Thinking on you in the final throes
This is when my buzzer goes

Run out to meet your chips and pitta
You say when "we're married",
'Cause you're not bitter
"There'll be none of him no more"
I cried for you on the kitchen floor

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was trouble
You know that I'm no good

Sweet reunion, Jamaica and Spain
We're like how we were again
I'm in the tub, you on the seat
Lick your lips as I soak my feet

Then you notice a likkle carpet burn
My stomach drop and my guts churn
You shrug and it's the worst
Who truly stuck the knife in first

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was trouble
You know that I'm no good

I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you I was troubled
Yeah, you know that I'm no good

Back On The Chain Gang - The Pretenders





I found a picture of you, o-o-oh, o-o-oh
You had hijacked my world at night
To a place in the past we've been passed out of, o-o-oh, o-o-oh
Now we're back in the fight

We're back on the train, yeah
O-oh, back on the chain gang

Circumstance beyond our control, o-o-oh, o-o-oh
The phone, TV and the news of the world
Got in the house like a pigeon from Hell, o-o-oh, o-o-oh
Threw sand in our eyes and descended like flies

And put us back on the train, yeah
O-oh, back on the chain gang

The powers that be
That force us to live like we do
Bring me to my knees
When I see what they've done to you

Well, I'll die as I stand here today
Knowing that deep in my heart
They'll fall to ruin one day
For making us part

I found a picture of you, o-o-oh, o-o-oh
Those were the happiest days of my life
Like a break in the battle was your part, o-o-oh, o-o-oh
In the wretched life of a lonely heart

Now I'm back on the train, yeah
O-oh, back on the chain gang

Último Desejo - Noel Rosa



Nosso amor que eu não esqueço,
E que teve o seu começo
Numa festa de São João.

Morre hoje sem foguete,
Sem retrato e sem bilhete,
Sem luar, sem violão.

Perto de você me calo,
Tudo penso e nada falo
Tenho medo de chorar.

Nunca mais quero o seu beijo
Mas meu último desejo
Você não pode negar

Se alguma pessoa amiga
Pedir que você lhe diga
Se você me quer ou não,
Diga que você me adora
Que você lamenta e chora
A nossa separação

Às pessoas que eu detesto,
Diga sempre que eu não presto
Que meu lar é o botequim,
Que eu arruinei sua vida
Que eu não mereço a comida que você pagou pra mim

The Passenger - Siouxsie & the Banshees




I am the passenger
And I ride and I ride
I ride through the city's backside
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, they're bright in a hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight

I am the passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's a rip in the sky
And everything looks good tonight

Singin' la la la la la-la-la la
La la la la la-la-la la
La la la la la-la-la la la-la

Get into the car
We'll be the passenger
We'll ride through the city tonight
See the city's ripped insides
We'll see the bright and hollow sky
We'll see the stars that shine so bright
The sky was made for us tonight

Oh the passenger
How how he rides
Oh the passenger
He rides and he rides
He looks through his window
What does he see?
He sees the sided hollow sky
He see the stars come out tonight
He sees the city's ripped backsides
He sees the winding ocean drive
And everything was made for you and me
All of it was made for you and me
'cause it just belongs to you and me
So let's take a ride and see what's mine

Singing...

Oh, the passenger
He rides and he rides
He sees things from under glass
He looks through his window's eye
He sees the things he knows are his
He sees the bright and hollow sky
He sees the city asleep at night
He sees the stars are out tonight
And all of it is yours and mine
And all of it is yours and mine
Oh, let's ride and ride and ride and ride...

Singing...

Phantom Of The Opera - Iron Maiden




I've been looking so long for you
Now you wont get away from my grasp.
You've been living so long in hiding
In hiding behind that false mask.
And you know and I know that
You aint got long now to last.
Your looks and your feelings
Are just the remains of your past.


You're standing in the wings,
There you wait for the curtain to fall.
Knowing the terror and holding
You have on us all.
Yeah, I know that youre gonna
Scratch me, maim me and maul.
You know Im helpless from
Your mesmerising cat call.


Keep your distance, walk away,
Don't take his bait.
Don't you stray, don't fade away.
Watch your step, hes out to get you,
Come what may.
Don't you stray, from the narrow way.


Im running and hiding in my
Dreams youre always there.
You're the phantom of the opera,
You're the devil, you're just out to scare.
You damaged my mind
And my soul it just floats through the air.
Haunt me, you taunt me,
You torture me back at your lair.

(I've Got You) Under My Skin




I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin.


I try so not to give in
I say to myself this affair, it never will go so well
But why should I try to resist when baby, I know so well
That I've got you under my skin.


I`d sacrafice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near,
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
It repeats, repeats in my ear
Don't you know you fool, you never can win
Use your mentality, wake up to reality
And each time I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop, before I begin
Because I've got you under my skin.


I would sacrafice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near,
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
It repeats, how it yells in my ear
Don't you know you fool, ain`t no chance to win
Why not use your mentality, get up, wake up to reality
And each time I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop, just before I begin
Because I've got you under my skin.
And I like you under my skin.

Pennyroyal Tea - Nirvana





I'm on my time with everyone
I have very bad posture

Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
Distill the life that's inside of me
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
I'm anemic royalty

Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld
So I can sigh eternally

I'm so tired I can't sleep
I'm anemic royalty
I'm a liar and a thief
I'm anemic royalty

I'm on warm milk and laxatives
Cherry-flavored antacids

Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
Distill the life that's inside of me
I'm anemic royalty
I'm anemic royalty

Take It Like A Man - The Offspring






When you won't go along
Some will feel like you can't find your way
Heaven knows
Heaven knows I've seen it all before


Now don't get me wrong
I've seen many a life gone astray
When someone goes
All your bows won't make it any better so let it go


Shut up and take it like a man
You need us to get a life
For your own good we'll take you by the hand
'Cause you need a little more


Maybe no one will say it
Maybe no one's aware it goes on
All I know
All I know it's like going off the deep end


Could you make a decision?
Could you think for yourself and go on?
Everyone knows
Everyone knows you've got to fit into the mainstream so save your woes


Shut up and take it like a man
You need us to get a life
For your own good we'll take you by the hand
'Cause you need a little more


Close your eyes
Look away now
Make believe while you can


Shut up and take it like a man
You need us to get a life
For your own good we'll take you by the hand
'Cause you need a little more


So you'd best go along
Don't let on if you can't find your way
Many more
Many more do it for you


Because heaven knows
Heaven knows it's like playing with fire
Your life's a throw

Dreams - Cranberries






Oh my life
Is changing everyday
Every possible way

Though my dreams
It's never quite as it seems
Never quite as it seems

I know I felt like this before
But now I'm feeling it even more
Because it came from you

And then I open up and see
The person falling here is me
A different way to be

La larara larara larara la

I want more
impossible to ignore
impossible to ignore

They'll come true
impossible not to do
impossible not to do

And now I tell you openly
You have my heart so don't hurt me
You're what I couldn't find

A totally amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You're everything to me

Oh my life
Is changing everyday
In every possible way

Though my dreams
It's never quiet as it seems
Cause you're a dream to me

Stellar - Incubus




Meet me in outer space.
We could spend the night;
watch the earth come up.
I've grown tired of that place;
won't you come with me?
We could start again.



How do you do it?
Make me feel like I do.
How do you do it?
It's better than I ever knew.



Meet me in outer space.
I will hold you close,
if you're afraid of heights.
I need you to see this place,
it might be the only way that
I can show you how it feels to be inside of you.



How do you do it?
Make me feel like I do.
How do you do it?
It's better than I ever knew.


You are stellar....

You Could Be Mine - Guns N' Roses





You Could Be Mine - Guns N' Roses



I'm a cold heartbreaker, fit ta burn and I'll rip your heart in two.
And I'll leave you lyin' on the bed.
I'll be out the door before ya wake,
it's nothin' new to you.
'Cause I think we've seen that movie too.
'Cause you could be mine.
But you're way out of line.
With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue you get nothin' done.
I said you could be mine.

Now holidays come, and then they go.
It's nothin' new today.
Collect another memory.
When I come home late at night don't ask me where I've been.
Just count your stars I'm home again.
'Cause you could be mine.
But you're way out of line.
With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue you get nothin' done.
I said you could be mine.

You could be mine.
You could be mine.
You could be mine.
You could be mine.
You could be mine.

You've gone sketchin' too many times.
Why don't ya give it a rest.
Why must you find another reason to cry.

While you're breakin' down my back n' I been racin' out my brain.
It don't matter how we make it
'cause it always ends the same.
You can push it for more mileage but your flaps r' wearin'thin.
And I could sleep on it' til morning but this nightmare never ends.
Don't forget to call my lawyers with ridiculous demands.
An you can take the pity so far but it's more than I can stand.
'Cause this couchtrip's gettin' older tell me how long has it been.
'Cause 5 years is forever and you haven't grown up yet.

You could be mine.
But you're way out of line.
With your bitch slap rappin' and your cocaine tongue you get nothin' done.
I said you could be, you should be, you could be mine.
You could be mine. (You could be mine)

Disorder - Joy Division

Disorder

I've been waiting for a guide to come
and take me by the hand
Could these sensations make me feel
the pleasures of a normal man
New sensations bear the innocence -
leave them for another day
I've go the spirit, lose the feeling
take the shock away

It's getting faster, moving faster now,
it's getting out of hand
On the tenth floor, down the backstairs
into no-man's land
Lights are flashing,
cars are crashing,
getting frequent now
I've got the spirit, lose the feeling,
let it out somehow

What means to you,
what means to me -
and we will meet again
I'm watching you, I watch it all
I take no pity from friends

Who is right and who can tell,
and who gives a damn right now


Until the spirit, new sensation takes hold - then you know
Until the spirit, new sensation takes hold - then you know
Until the spirit, new sensation takes hold - then you know

I've got the spirit, but lose the feeling
I've got the spirit, but lose the feeling

Feeling, feeling, feeling,
Feeling, feeling, feeling,
Feeling...

Control




When routine bites hard and ambitions are low
and resentment rides high but emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways, taking different roads



Finalmente assisti "Control", o filme que conta e canta a história de Ian Curtis, o vocal do Joy Division, banda que eu sou fã de carteirinha há muito tempo. O filme é incível, adorei a fotografia, ter sido feito em P&B deu um sabor especial, mas como fã sou suspeito pra falar.

Mas uma coisa me chamou muito a atenção... como em alguns momentos me sentia na pele de Ian, em ações, reações e não-ações....



This is why events unnerve me,
They find it all, a different story,
Notice whom for wheels are turning,
Turn again and turn towards this time



Não sei se é coisa da minha cabeça, de um fã assistindo o filme do seu ídolo, ou de todas as coisas que estão acontecendo comigo, mas a cada cena que ele se fechava, que se escondia em seu próprio mundo e se afastava de pessoas a sua volta, eu sentia como se fosse eu me "escondendo"..

Senti tanto que que no mesmo dia fiz uma "besteira", de tentar corrigir o que não estava errado, procurar desculpas onde não havia culpa...



Please keep your distance
the trail leads to here,
There's blood on your fingers,
brought on by fear



E nessa, não existe outra expressão melhor que "quebrar a cara" para definir o resultado. E não poderia ser diferente.


E em vez de ficar chateado, eu não poderia me sentir tão livre, como se um peso tivesse sido tirado da minha cabeça. Acho que foi isso mesmo, o "ponto" exato que eu precisava.




C'est la vie, ma belle chéri..

A Means To An End - Joy Division


A legacy so far removed
One day will be improved
Eternal rights we left behind
We were the better kind
Two the same - set free too
I always looked to you.

We fought for good - stood side by side
Our friendship never died
On stranger waves - the lows and highs
Our vision touched the skies
Immortalists with points to prove
I put my trust in you.

A house somewhere on foreign soil
Where ageing lovers call
Is this your goal - your final needs?
Where dogs and vultures eat
Committed still, I turn to go
I put my trust in you.

In you, in you, in you
Put my trust in you, in you

No More Lies - Iron Maiden






No More Lies




There's a darkened sky before me
There's no time to prepare
Salvage a last horizon
But no regrets from me


Maybe I'll be back some other day
To live again just who can say
In what shape or form that I might be
Just another chance for me


A hurried time no disgrace
Instead of racing to conclusion
And wishing all my life away
No-one can stop me now


Time is up it couldnt last
But there's more things I'd like to do
I'm coming back to try again
Someday maybe I'll wait till then


No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies


They're all sitting at my table
Talking tall and drinking wine
Their time is up just like me
But they just dont know it yet


So just a word of warning
When you're in your deepest dream
There's nothing you can hide from
I've got my eye on you


The clock is fast the hour is near
Eventful past is everclear
My life is set the time is here
I think I'm coming home


No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies


A hurried time no disgrace
Instead of racing to conclusions
And wishing all your life away
No-one can stop me now


Time is up it couldnt last
But there's more things I have to do
I'm coming back to try again
Don't tell me back this is the end


No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies...

Night Shift - Siouxie & The Banshees


Night Shift

Only at night time - I see you
In darkness - I feel you
A bride by my side - I'm inside many brides
Sometimes I wonder...
What goes in your mind, always silent and kind
Unlike the others...

Chorus:
Fuck the mothers kill the others
Fuck the others kill the mothers
I'll put it out of my mind because...
I'm out of my mind with you
In heaven and hell with you...

My Night Shift Sister
Await your nightly visitor
They don't bother me
No they don't bother me


The cold marble slab submits at my feet
With a neat dissection...
Looking so sweet to me - please come to me
With your cold flesh - my cold love
Hissing - not kissing
A happy go lucky chap - always dressed in black
He'll come to you, he'll come to you


My Night Shift Sister
Await your nightly visitor
A new vocation in life
My love with a knife
