003: patrick watson - broken


"
tell me where we're going tonight
home is better than wandering in our heads
we tried everything to save our love
the best was always waiting to come
did we dig too deep
for fifty-one reasons not to lose our souls?
and it's not that you're not the one
and it's not that you're not the one
we all need a little peace

do you feel a little broken?
do you feel a little broken?

tell me where we're going so fast
never used to run when we were young
and i'm running out of words
i still love you like the very first time
pack your bags with all the lives you've been before
and leave behind what you don't want no more
sometimes sometimes you wanna wanna go back
but it don't work like that

do you feel a little broken?
do you feel a little broken?

do you feel a little broken?
do you feel a little broken?

memories come and then they go
you just learned how to let go
sometimes sometimes you wanna wanna go back
but it don't work like that

do you feel a little broken?
do you feel a little broken?

do you feel a little broken?
do you feel a little broken?

2017/12/29: daughter - youth



o número 40 começou a correr e foi abrandando até ao meu colapso.

o meu 2017 foi isto.
já não me lembrava de estar tão viciado numa música.
de ouvi-la dias, semanas. de a gritar, berrar, sussurar, chorar. de a respirar fundo.
de a sentir rasgar-me por dentro. de me fazer beliscar, arranhar, cortar.
de acelerar com ela. de parar o meu mundo com ela.
não sei o que aí vem. mas eu nunca mais vou ser o mesmo. eu mudei.

2017/11/13: red hot chili peppers - wet sand




my shadow side, so amplified
keeps coming back dissatisfied
elementary, son, but it's soul
my love affair with everywhere
was innocent, why do you care?
someone start the car
time to go
you're the best i know

my sunny side has up and died
i'm betting now where we collide
the universe will shift into a low
the travesties that we have seen
are treating you like benzedrine
automatic laughter from a pro

my, what a good day for a walk outside
i'd like to get to know you a little better baby
god knows that i really have tried
my what a good day for a take-out bride
i'd like to say we did it for the better, oh

i saw you there so unaware
those hummingbirds all in your hair
elementary, son, but it's soul
the disrepair of norma jean
could not compare to your routine
balarama beauty going toe-to-toe

my, what a good day for a, let it slide
i'd like to say we did it for the better, oh

i thought about it and i brought it out
i'm motivated by the lack of doubt
i'm consecrated, but i'm not devout
the mother, the father, the daughter, yeah

right on the verge, just one more dose
i'm traveling from coast to coast
my theory isn't perfect, but it's close
i'm almost there, why should i care?
my heart is hurting when i share
someone open up, let it show

my what a good day for a, walk outside
i'd like to think we did it for the better, oh

i thought about it and i brought it out
i'm motivated by the lack of doubt
i'm consecrated but i'm not devout
the mother, the father, the daughter

oh, you don't form in the wet sand
you don't form at all
oh, you don't form in the wet sand
i do

yeah
you don't form in the wet sand
you don't form at all
oh, you don't form in the wet sand
i do
yeah

2017/10/05: daughter - landfill



throw me in a landfill
don't think about the consequences
throw me in the dirt pit
don't think about the choices that you make
throw me in the water
don't think about the splash i will create
leave me at the altar
knowing all the things you just escaped

push me out to sea
on a little boat that you made
out of the evergreen that you helped your father cut away
leave me on the tracks
to wait until the morning train arrives
don't you dare look back
walk away
catch up with the sunrise

'cause this is torturous electricity
between both of us and this is
dangerous 'cause i want you so much
but i hate your guts
i hate you

so leave me in the cold
wait until the snow covers me up
so i cannot move
so i'm just embedded in the frost
then leave me in the rain
wait until my clothes cling to my frame
wipe away your tear stains
thought you said you didn't feel pain

well this is torturous electricity
between both of us and this is
dangerous, 'cause i want you so much
but i hate your guts. i want you so much
but i hate your guts.
well this is torturous
electricity between both of us
and this is dangerous 'cause i want you so much
but i hate your guts
i want you so much but i hate your guts
