You Said Something - PJ Harvey

On a rooftop in Brooklyn

At one in the morning

Watching the lights flash

In Manhattan

I see five bridges

The Empire State Building

And you said something

That I've never forgotten

We lean against railings

Describing the colors

And the smells of our homelands

Acting like lovers

How did we get here?

To this point of living?

I held my breath

And you said something

And I'm doing nothing wrong

Riding in your car

The radio playing

We sing up to the eighth floor

A rooftop, Manhattan

At one in the morning

And you said something

That I've never forgotten

You said something

You said something

You said something

That was really important

Bachianas Brasileiras, No.5 : Cantilena - "Aria"

Tarde uma nuvem rósea lenta e transparente.
Sobre o espaço, sonhadora e bela!
Surge no infinito a lua docemente,
Enfeitando a tarde, qual meiga donzela
Que se apresta e a linda sonhadoramente,
Em anseios d'alma para ficar bela
Grita ao céu e a terra toda a natureza!
Cala a passarada aos seus tristes queixumes
E reflete o mar toda a sua riqueza...
Suave a luz da lua desperta agora
A cruel saudade que ri e chora!
Tarde uma nuvem rósea lenta e transparente
Sobre o espaço, sonhadora e bela!

Aconteceu - Ludov



Estrelei um papel que não era meu
na sua vida
Não tive talento
Fui desatento
Não decorei sua cor preferida
Não tive saída
Aconteceu

E num palco vazio você me deixou
a luz se apagou
Não li o roteiro
se o mundo inteiro
pudesse aplaudir a cena que eu inventei pra nós dois
Mas não tenho escolha
Agora adeus, adeus
Não tenho escolha
Adeus
(eu peço desculpas)
Adeus

Oh My Lover - PJ Harvey

Oh My Lover - PJ Harvey


Oh my lover
Don't you know it's alright ?
You can love him
You can love me at the same time

Much to discover
I know you don't have the time but
Oh my lover
Don't you know it's alright ?

Oh my sweet thing
Oh my honey thighs
Give me your troubles
I'll keep them with mine

Take at your leisure
Take whatever you can find but
Oh my sweet thing
Don't you know it's alright ?

It's alright
It's alright
There's no time
So it's alrigh-igh-ight

What's that color
Forming around your eyes ?
Once my lover
Tell me that it's alright

Just another
Before you go...go away
Oh my lover
Why don't you just say my name ?

And it's alright
Say it's alright
There's no time...

Fim de Caso - Dolores Duran

Eu desconfio que o nosso caso está na hora de acabar

Há um adeus em cada gesto, em cada olhar

Mas nós não temos a coragem de falar

Nós já tivemos a nossa fase de carinho apaixonado

De fazer versos, de viver sempre abraçados

Naquela base do "só vou se você for"

Mas de repente, a gente briga, diz tanta coisa que não quer dizer

Briga pensando que não vai sofrer, que não faz mal se tudo terminar

Mas de repente, fomos ficando cada dia mais sozinhos

Embora juntos cada qual tem seu caminho

E já não temos nem vontade de brigar

Tenho pensado, e Deus permita que eu esteja errada

Mas eu estou, eu estou desconfiada

Que o nosso caso está na hora de acabar

Se eu soubesse, naquele dia o que sei agora...

Aliens Exist - Blink 182

Hey mom there's something in the backroom
I hope it's not the creatures from above
You used to read me stories
As if my dreams were boring
We all know conspiracies are dumb

What if people knew that these were real
(These were real)
I'd leave my closet door open all night
I know the CIA would say
What you hear is all hearsay
I wish someone would tell me what was right

Up all night long
And there's something very wrong
And I know it must be late
Been gone since yesterday
I'm not like you guys
I'm not like you

I am still the skeptic, yes you know me
(Yes you know me)
Been bestfriends and will be til we die
(Die)
I got an injection
Of fear from the abduction
My bestfriend thinks Im just telling lies
Alright

Up all night long
And there's something very wrong
And I know it must be late
Been gone since yesterday
I'm not like you guys
I'm not like you

Dark and scary, ordinary, explanation, information
Nice to know ya, paranoia
Where's my mother, bio-father

Up all night long
And there's something very wrong
And I know it must be late
Been gone since yesterday
I'm not like you guys
Twelve majestic lies

Tempo Perdido - Legião Urbana

Todos os dias quando acordo
Não tenho mais
O tempo que passou
Mas tenho muito tempo
Temos todo o tempo do mundo...

Todos os dias
Antes de dormir
Lembro e esqueço
Como foi o dia
Sempre em frente
Não temos tempo a perder...

Nosso suor sagrado
É bem mais belo
Que esse sangue amargo
E tão sério
E Selvagem! Selvagem!
Selvagem!...

Veja o sol
Dessa manhã tão cinza
A tempestade que chega
É da cor dos teus olhos
Castanhos...

Então me abraça forte
E diz mais uma vez
Que já estamos
Distantes de tudo
Temos nosso próprio tempo
Temos nosso próprio tempo
Temos nosso próprio tempo...

Não tenho medo do escuro
Mas deixe as luzes
Acesas agora
O que foi escondido
É o que se escondeu
E o que foi prometido
Ninguém prometeu
Nem foi tempo perdido
Somos tão jovens...

Tão Jovens! Tão Jovens!...

Roxanne - The Police

Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night
Roxanne, you don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets for money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right

Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
Put on the red light
Put on the red light
Put on the red light
Put on the red light
Put on the red light
Roxanne

Ever since I knew you
I wouldn't talk down to you
I have to tell you just how I feel
I won't share you with another boy
I know my mind is made up
So put away your make up
Told you once I won't tell you again
It's a bad way

Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light
You don't have to put on the red light
Put on the red light
Put on the red light
Put on the red light
Put on the red light
Put on the red light
Put on the red light
Put on the red light
Put on the red light
Put on the red light
You don't have to put on the red light
Put on the red light


You don't have to put on the red light
Put on the red light
You don't have to

Faithless - Rush

I've got my own moral compass to steer by
A guiding star beats a spirit in the sky
And all the preaching voices -
Empty vessels of dreams so loud
As they move among the crowd
Fools and thieves are well disguised
In the temple and market place

Like a stone in the river
Against the floods of spring
I will quietly resist

Like the willows in the wind
Or the cliffs along the ocean
I will quietly resist

I don't have faith in faith
I don't believe in belief
You can call me faithless
You can call me faithless
But I still cling to hope
And I believe in love
And that's faith enough for me

I've got my own spirit level for balance
To tell if my choice is leaning up or down
And all the shouting voices
Try to throw me off my course
Some by sermon, some by force
Fools and thieves are dangerous
In the temple and market place

Like a forest bows to winter
Beneath the deep white silence
I will quietly resist

Like a flower in the desert
That only blooms at night
I will quietly resist


I don't have faith in faith
I don't believe in belief
You can call me faithless
You can call me faithless
But I still cling to hope
And I believe in love
And that's faith enough for me

Freewill - Rush

There are those who think that life has nothing left to chance,

A host of holy horrors to direct our aimless dance

A planet of playthings,

We dance on the strings

Of powers we cannot perceive

"The stars aren't aligned,

Or the gods are malign..."

Blame is better to give than receive

You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice

If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice

You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill

I will choose a path that's clear

I will choose freewill

There are those who think that they were dealt a losing hand,

The cards were stacked against them; they weren't born in Lotusland

All preordained

A prisoner in chains

A victim of venomous fate

Kicked in the face,

You can't pray for a place

In heaven's unearthly estate

You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice

If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice

You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill

I will choose a path that's clear

I will choose freewill

Each of us

A cell of awareness

Imperfect and incomplete

Genetic blends

With uncertain ends

On a fortune hunt that's far too fleet

You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice

If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice

You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill

I will choose a path that's clear

I will choose freewill

November Rain - Guns 'n' Roses

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain
We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain
But lovers always come and lovers always go
An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today
Walking away
If we could take the time to lay it on the line
I could rest my head
just knowin' that you were mine
All mine
So if you want to love me
then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'
in the cold November rain

Do you need some time.. on your own?
Do you need some time.. all alone?
Everybody needs some time.. on their own
Don't you know you need some time.. all alone?

I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you?

Sometimes I need some time.. on my own
Sometimes I need some time.. all alone
Everybody needs some time.. on their own
Don't you know you need some time.. all alone?

And when your fears subside
and shadows still remain
I know that you can love me
when there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness
we still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
even cold November rain

Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Absolute Beginner - David Bowie

I've nothing much to offer
There's nothing much to take
I'm an absolute beginner
And I'm absolutely sane


As long as we're together
The rest can go to Hell
I absolutely love you
But we're absolute beginners
With eyes completely open
But nervous all the same


If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Could laugh at the ocean
Just like the films


There's no reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
It's absolutely true


Nothing much could happen
Nothing we can't shake
Oh we're absolute beginners
With nothing much at stake


As long as you're still smiling
There's nothing more I need
I absolutely love you
But we're absolute beginners
But if my love is your love
We're certain to succeed


If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Sail over heartaches
Just like the films


There's no reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
It's absolutely true

Story of My Life - Social Distortion

Well high school seemed like such a blur
I didn't have much interest in sports or school elections
And in class I dreamed all day
Of a rock 'n' roll weekend

And the girl in the front of the room
So close yet so far you know she never seemed to notice
That this silly schoolboy crush
Wasn't just pretend

Life goes by so fast
You only want to do what you think is right
Close your eyes, then it's past
Story of my life

And I went down my old neighborhood
The faces have all changed there's no one left to talk to
And the pool hall I loved as a kid
Is now a 7-11

I went downtown to look for a job
I had no training, no experience to speak of
I looked at the holes in my jeans
And I turned and headed back

Life goes by so fast
You only want to do what you think is right
Close your eyes, then it's past
Story of my life

Good times come and good times go
I only wish the good times would last a little longer
I think about the good times we had
And why they had to end

So I sit at the edge of my bed
I strum my guitar and I sing an outlaw love song
Thinkin' about what you're doin' now
And when you're coming back

Life goes by so fast
You only want to do what you think is right
Close your eyes, then it's past
Story of my life

Blaze Of Glory - Bon Jovi

I wake up in the morning, and I raise my weary head
I've got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last nights bed
I don't know where I'm going
Only God knows where I've been
I'm a devil on the run, a six gun lover
A candle in the wind, yeah

When you're brought into this world
They say you're born in sin
Well at least they gave me something
I didn't have to steal or have to win
Well they tell me that I'm wanted
Yeah, I'm a wanted man
I'm a colt in your stable
I'm what Cain was to Able
Mr catch me if you can

I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
And Lord I never drew first but I drew first blood
I'm no-one's son, call me young gun

You ask about my conscience, and I offer you my soul
You ask if I'll grow to be a wise man
Well I ask if I'll grow old
You ask me if I've known love
And what its like to sing songs in the rain
Well, I've seen love come, I've seen it shot down
I've seen it die in vain

Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
Cause I'm going down in blazy of glory
Lord I never drew first but I drew first blood
I'm the devils son, call me young gun

Each night I go to bed, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
No I aint looking for forgiveness
But before I'm six foot deep
Lord, I gotta ask a favour
And I hope you'll understand
Cause I've lived life to the fullest
Let this boy die like a man
Staring down a bullet, let me make my final stand

Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now, but know the truth
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first but I drew first blood
And I'm no-ones son, call me young gun
I'm a young gun
Young gun, young gun...

Sad Song - Oasis

Sing a sad song
In a lonely place
Try to put a word in for me
It’s been so long
Since I found this place
You better put in two or three
We as people, are just walking ’round
Our heads are firmly fixed in the ground
What we don’t see
Well it can’t be real
What we don’t touch we cannot feel

Where we’re living in this town
The sun is coming up and it’s going down
But it’s all just the same at the end of the day
And we cheat and we lie
Nobody says it’s wrong
So we don’t ask why
Cause it’s all just the same at the end of the day
We’re throwing it all away
We’re throwing it all away
We’re throwing it all away at the end of the day

If you need it
Something I can give
I know I’d help you if I can
If your honest and you say that you did
You know that I would give you my hand
Or a sad song
In a lonely place
I’ll try to put a word in for you
Need a shoulder? well if that’s the case
You know there’s nothing I wouldn’t do

Where we’re living in this town
The sun is coming up and it’s going down
But it’s all just the same at the end of the day
When we cheat and we lie
Nobody says it’s wrong
So we don’t ask why
Cause it’s all just the same at the end of the day

Don’t throw it all away
Don’t throw it all away
Don’t throw it all away
Don’t throw it all away
Throwing it all away
Throwing it all away
Throwing it all away

Throwing it all away
Throwing it all away
You’re throwing it all away at the end of the day

Tempo Perdido - Legião Urbana

Todos os dias quando acordo
Não tenho mais
O tempo que passou
Mas tenho muito tempo
Temos todo o tempo do mundo...

Todos os dias
Antes de dormir
Lembro e esqueço
Como foi o dia
Sempre em frente
Não temos tempo a perder...

Nosso suor sagrado
É bem mais belo
Que esse sangue amargo
E tão sério
E Selvagem! Selvagem!
Selvagem!...

Veja o sol
Dessa manhã tão cinza
A tempestade que chega
É da cor dos teus olhos
Castanhos...

Então me abraça forte
E diz mais uma vez
Que já estamos
Distantes de tudo
Temos nosso próprio tempo
Temos nosso próprio tempo
Temos nosso próprio tempo...

Não tenho medo do escuro
Mas deixe as luzes
Acesas agora
O que foi escondido
É o que se escondeu
E o que foi prometido
Ninguém prometeu
Nem foi tempo perdido
Somos tão jovens...

Tão Jovens! Tão Jovens!...

Some Kind of Stranger - Sisters of Mercy

And yes I believe in what we had
But words got in the way
And only yesterday
As I was leaving
Lord knows I've tried to say but I've
Heard a million conversations
Going where they've been before
Seen the way that careful lingers
Undecided at the door


And all I know for sure
All I know for real
Is knowing doesn't mean so much
When placed against the feeling
The heat inside
When bodies meet
When fingers touch


All my words are secondhand and
Useless in the face of this
Rationale and rhyme and reason
Pale beside a single kiss
And I've heard so many things I
Fail to understand at all
I'd settle anytime for
Unknown footsteps in the hall outside


And all I know for sure
All I know for real
Is knowing doesn't mean so much
When placed against the feeling
The heat inside
When bodies meet
When fingers touch


Because the world is cruel and
Promises are broken
Don't try to tell me
Anything don't try to tell me
You'll be true to me you know the
Real truth is never spoken
And I know the world is cold but
If you hold on tight to what you
Find you might not mind too much though
Even this must pass away and
Memories may last for years but
Names are just for souvenirs
Some kind of angel let me
Look into your eyes
Don't give me whys and wherefores
Reason or surprise
I don't care for words that don't belong
And I don't care what you're called
Tell me later if at all
I can wait a long long time
Before I hear another love song


Come here I think you're beautiful
My door is open wide
Some kind of angel come inside


Come here I think you're beautiful
I think you're beautiful beautiful
Some kind of angel come inside


Come here I think you're beautiful
I think you're beautiful
Some kind of angel come inside


Come here I think you're beautiful
My door is open wide
Some kind of stranger come inside


Come here I think you're beautiful
I think you're beautiful beautiful
Some kind of stranger come inside


Come here I think you're beautiful
I think you're beautiful
Some kind of stranger come inside

Absent Minded Friends - Moloko

Well it's a silly thing
That I've been wondering
Shall we drink a toast to
Absent minded friends
To all who turn the corner and
To those who went round the bend
Everybody raise your glasses
Drink and drown
Melancholy for the masses
Love come down

Well it's a silly thing
That I've been wondering
Maybe you will never
Bridge the gulf
Baby you are just too sensitive
Are you numb enough?
Can we ever feel this
Impending void?
Have we become what we intended
To avoid?

Have you ever smiled for too long?
Till you're aching
Have you ever laughed till you cried?
Till your heart is breaking.

Have you ever smiled for too long?
Till you're aching
Have you ever laughed till your heart is breaking.
Well it'a a silly thing that I've been wondering.

Love is always riddled with
Selfishness
Few will find joy In their
Big success
From the sublime to the ridiculous in the
Blink of an eye.
Funny all too funny
You're a funny guy

If it's too much to feel
Come this way my friend
Try to keep it unreal
Feels good to let yourself descend to pretend
We can transcend our everyday existances
No distances
How did we come undone?
Became what we've become

Have you ever smiled for too long?
Till you're aching.
Have you ever laughed till you cried?
Till your heart is breaking.

Have you ever smiled for too long?
Till you're aching.
Have you ever laughed till your heart is breaking.
How did we come undone?

Have you ever smiled for too long?
Till you're aching.
Became what we've become
Have you ever laughed till you cried?
Till your heart is breaking.
How did we come undone?

Have you ever smiled for too long?
Became what we've become
Have you ever laughed till your heart is breaking.
How did we come undone?

Became what we've become
How did we come undone?
Became what we've become

A Rock And A Hard Place - The Sisters of Mercy

And she came to look for me
Sold me name and innocence
Took my key
And told me to follow her
Down from igor with her bangles and her reference
One from the church from the valley of the..
Well she wanted a haven and a place to hide
So I gave her an alibi took her inside but

A rock and a hard place await for for me
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
Everything I ever did right or wrong
Hid out of sight where I belong, belong

And I didn't have the heart to tell her why
And there wasn't a part of me that
Didn't want to say goodbye but

Cause and effect go hand in hand with
The devil may care but I don't mind
And I thought she'd never quite understand
So I left her there that night but will she find me?
I don't think so, no
When you go, you go alone
And I'm gone.............
Far away
Far away
Far away
Far away

And I didn't have the heart to tell why
And there wasn't a part of me that
Didn't want to say goodbye but...

Vento no litoral - Legião Urbana

De tarde quero descansar
Chegar até a praia e ver
Se o vento ainda esta forte
E vai ser bom subir nas pedras

Sei que faço isso pra esquecer
Eu deixo a onda me acertar
E o vento vai levando
Tudo embora...

Agora está tão longe
ver a linha do horizonte me distrai
Dos nossos planos é que tenho mais saudade
Quando olhávamos juntos
Na mesma direção
Aonde está você agora
Alem de aqui dentro de mim...

Agimos certo sem querer
Foi só o tempo que errou
Vai ser difícil sem você
Porque você esta comigo
O tempo todo
E quando vejo o mar
Existe algo que diz
Que a vida continua
E se entregar é uma bobagem...

Já que você não está aqui
O que posso fazer
É cuidar de mim
Quero ser feliz ao menos,
Lembra que o plano
Era ficarmos bem...

Eieieieiei!
Olha só o que eu achei
Humrun
Cavalos-marinhos...

Sei que faço isso
Pra esquecer
Eu deixo a onda me acertar
E o vento vai levando
Tudo embora...
