Oh, Well


What you did to me made me see myself something different
And though I try to talk sense to myself
But I just won't listen
Won't you go away
Turn yourself in
You're no good at confession
Before the image that you burned me in
Tries to teach you a lesson
What you did to me made me see myself something awful
A voice once stentorian is now again meek and muffled
It took me such a long time to get back up the first time you did it
I spent all I had to get it back, and now it seems I've been out-bidded
My peace and quiet was stolen from me
When I was looking with calm affection
You were searching out my imperfections
What wasted unconditional love
On somebody
Who doesn't believe in the stuff
You came upon me like a hypnic jerk
When I was just about settled
And when it counts you recoil
With a cryptic word and leave a love belittled
Oh what a cold and common old way to go
I was feeding on the need for you to know me
Devastated at the rate you fell below me
What wasted unconditional love
On somebody
Who doesn't believe in the stuff
Oh, well
Oh, Well. Fiona Apple

Over


I can't hold this state,
Anymore,
Understand me,
Anymore.
To tread this fantasy, openly,
What have I done.
Oh, this uncertainty,
Is taking me over.
I can't mould this stage,
Anymore,
Recognize me,
Anymore.
To tread this fantasy, openly,
What have I done.
Oh, this uncertainty,
Is taking me over,
Is taking me over.
To tread this fantasy, openly,
What have I done.
Oh, this uncertainty Is taking me over,
Is taking me over,
Is taking me over.
Oh It's all over, yeah,
Oh It's all over,
yeah, oh oh oh.

Plágio por uma boa causa

Num dos Blogs que frequento diaramente deparei com este excelente texto... Obrigado Tiago, e desculpa o plágio.

O teu amor está perto do vómito. Igualmente sentido na barriga, e tão diferente. Parecidíssimo com a anteestreia de
um exame, mas sem cronómetro que lhe aplique um fim. Perto da insuportabilidade, sustentável apenas porque não
seria amor sem o ódio a hifenizá-lo, o contraste constante que permite à limitação cognitiva o reconhecimento de um conceito apenas na lembrança de outro que lhe seja diametralmente oposto.
Esbocei alguém, parcialmente plagiado daquilo que os produtores da Celine querem que ela grite, quando não sei
desenhar nem escrever música que venda, e dei-lhe a tua cara. Vejo-te sorrir, quando só te vejo a má disposição.
Quando não te vejo sequer.E nesta alucinação de bruma de duche, nestas dormidas de sonhos fortes não sei de quê mas que me obrigam a dormir mais e a cansar mais ainda, como corações de chocolate que não foste tu a comprar, e mutilo-me na fome do estômago, para pensar menos na de ti.

Tum-tum.

Over and over


No I won’t interfere
I’m the only sound you’ll ever need to hear
Listen to my breathe so near
Allow me to be every noise in your ear
Since that day I wake up early
Every morning which is good
But my stomach’s churning, call me,
It would be nice if you could
Some days I question
The suggestion
You might not exist at all
Can we meet and talk it over
Would you be kind enough to call
Over and overIt’s over all over
And over and over and over
And over.....
No there’s no middle ground
Your off in another story
Or merry-go-round
No there’ll be no measured terms
You fly in the face of the way the world turns
Like a frozen tidal wave
Since that day I’m standing still
You brought me here and I accept
Though you regret I never will
Just one sweet word
And then a smile from you
Is almost worth everything
I’ve given all I had to give
But you gave up giving in
You are everywhere I go
All the places we have been
I can’t imagine where you are
For you are all I’ve ever seen
Over and over.....
All I’ve ever known
All I’ve ever seen
Places that I go
Places that we’ve been
Over and over. Moloko

Again


You're tearing me apart
Crushing me inside
You used to lift me up
Now you get me down
If IWas to walk away
From you my love
Could I laugh again ?
If I Walk away from you
And leave my love
Could I laugh again ?
Again, again...
You're killing me again
Am I still in your head ?
You used to light me up
Now you shut me down
If I Was to walk away
From you my love
Could I laugh again ?
If IWalk away from you
And leave my love
Could I laugh again ?
I'm losing you again
Locking me inside
I used to lift you up
Now I get you down
Without your love
You're tearing me apart
With you close by
You're crushing me inside
Without your love
You're tearing me apart
Without your love
I'm dowsed in madness
Can't loose the sadness
I can't loose the sadness
Can't loose the sadness
You're tearing me apart
Crushing me inside
Without your love (you used to lift me up)
You're crushing me inside (now you get me down)
With you close by
I'm dowsed in madness
Can't lose the sadness
It's ripping me apart

All I Need


" Never been here - How about you ? "
You smile at my answer,
You've given me the chance,
To be held and understood.
You leave me laughing without crying,
There's no use denying,
For many times I've tried,
Love has never felt as good.
Be it downtown or way up in the air,
When your heart's pounding,
You know that I'm aware.
You make it easy to watch the world with love,
You make it easy to let the past be done,
You make it easy.
How'd you do it ?
How'd you find me ?
How did I find you ?
How can this be true ?
To be held and understood.
Keep it coming - no one's running
The lesson I'm learning'
Cause blessings are deserved
By the trust that always could
Be it downtown or way up in the air,
When your heart's pounding,
You know that I'm aware.
You make it easy to watch the world with love,
You make it easy to let the past be done,
You make it easy.
You make it easy to watch the world with love
,You make it easy to let the past be done,
You make it easy.
All I need. Air
