Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad

2008-12-12T01:51:00.000+01:00

Why does my heart feel so bad?
Why does my soul feel so bad?

Why does my heart feel so bad?
Why does my soul feel so bad?

Too Much Love will Kill Me

2008-12-12T01:49:00.001+01:00

QUEEN

I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
too many bitter tears are raining down on me.
I'm far away from home
and I've been facing this alone
for much too long.
I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
about growing up and what a struggle it would be.
In my tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find
where I went wrong.

Too much love will kill you
if you can't make up your mind.
Torn between the lover and the love you leave behind.
You're headed for disaster
'cause you never read the signs.
Too much love will kill you every time.

I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
and it seems like there's no way out of this for me.
I used to bring you sunshine
but now all I ever do is bring you down.
How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
can't you see that it's impossible to choose.
No there's no making sense of it
every way I go I'm bound to lose.

Too much love will kill you.
Just assure it's none at all.
It will drain the power that's in you
make you bleed and scream and crawl.
And the pain will make you crazy
you're the victim of your crime.
Too much love will kill you every time.

Too much love will kill you.
It will make your life a lie.
Yes too much love will kill you
and you won't understand why.
It's in your life you'd sell your soul
but here it comes again.
Too much love will kill you in the end.

Let it Rain

2008-12-12T01:42:00.001+01:00

I have given
I have given and got none
Still I'm driven by something I can't explain

It's not a cross
It is a choice
I cannot help but hear his voice
I only wish that I could listen without shame

Let it rain
Let it rain on me

Let it rain
Oh
Let it rain
Let it rain on me

I have been a witness to the perfect crime
I wipe the grin off of my face to hide the blame

It isn't worth the tears you cry to have a perfect alibi
Now I'm beaten at the hands of my own game

Let it rain
Let it rain on me

Let it rain
Oh
Let it rain
Let it rain on me

It isn't easy to be kind
(It isn't easy to be kind)
With all these demons in my mind
(With all these demons in my mind)
I only hope one day I'll be free

I do my best not to complain
(I do my best not to complain)
My face is dirty from the strain
(My face is dirty from the strain)
I only hope one day I'll come clean

Rain
Let it rain on me

Let it rain
Oh
Let it rain
Let it rain on me

Come take my hand
(Rain)
We can walk to the light
And without fear we can't see through the darkest night
(Rain)

Rain
Rain on me

Let it rain
Oh
Let it rain
Let it rain on me

Rain on me
Rain on me
Rain on me

preço é maior do que aquele

2008-12-10T00:30:00.002+01:00

«Há uma verdade mais profunda do que a experiência e que vai para além daquilo que vemos ou até mesmo do que sentimos. É um tipo de verdade que separa a pessoa profunda de uma meramente inteligente e a realidade da percepção. Ficamos, normalmente, desarmados perante ela; e o preço de a conhecer, tal como o preço de conhecer o amor é, por vezes, maior do que aquele que qualquer coração estaria disposto a pagar. Nem sempre nos ajuda a amar o mundo, mas impede-nos de o odiar e o único modo de conhecer esta verdade é partilhá-la (...)»

«O Atlântico não é como os outros, não como o morno Pacífico ou o Índico. No Inverno, o Atlântico é rancoroso e implacavelmente cruel. Conseguimos ouvi-lo a chamar por nós. Sabemos que nos quer arrastar e afundar. É tão bonito que, quando o vi pela primeira vez, rompi em lágrimas. Quis entrar nele e deixar-me levar pelas gigantescas ondas.»

A amizade...

2008-12-10T00:23:00.002+01:00

«A amizade é algo cada vez mais difícil de entender e a cada minuto que passa cada vez menos a compreendo. É como um teste de álgebra que ninguém passa. Nos meus piores momentos, penso que o melhor que se pode dizer é que um amigo é aquele que não se menospreza.»

Solitude

2008-12-08T09:31:00.002+01:00

Getting back is easy
to the old times
When solitude
was paradise
No life required
except in the shade
But apart from feeling
There was a certain peace

In need of unity

2008-12-08T09:03:00.003+01:00

Must one be in unity with the world
to be in unity with oneself?

How?
if I hate the world
almost as much
as I hate
the doubts within

What will unity bring?

Shutdown

2008-12-07T16:52:00.003+01:00

It's coming
as the system
is ready to shutdown

Why can't happiness
last longer
And fulfillment
becomes a step further

Porque não suster
a respiração
para sempre

Até o corpo
se revolta contra

Deixa a depressão escrever
enquanto descansas de ti mesm@

E em breve
o teu sorriso
voltará
para guardar
as profundezas
da tua alma

I thought I was someone else

2008-12-07T09:01:00.002+01:00

Just a perfect day
Drink sangria in the park
And then later, when it gets dark,
We'll go home
Just a perfect day
Feed animals in the zoo
Then later a movie too
And then home

Oh it's such a perfect day
I'm glad I spent it with you
Oh such a perfect day
You just keep me hanging on

Oh it's such a perfect day
I'm glad I spent it with you
Oh such a perfect day
You just keep me hanging on

Just a perfect day
Problems all left alone
Weekenders on our own
It's such fun
Just a perfect day
You make me forget myself
I thought I was someone else
Someone good

You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow
You're going to reap just what you sow

Too much

Too little time

Porque é que as pessoas gritam?

2008-12-04T15:24:00.002+01:00

Um dia, um pensador indiano fez a seguinte pergunta aos seus discípulos:
Porque as pessoas gritam quando estão aborrecidas?

Gritamos porque perdemos a calma, disse um deles.

Mas, porquê gritar quando a outra pessoa está ao seu lado?
Questionou novamente o pensador.
Bem, gritamos porque desejamos que a outra pessoa nos ouça, retrucou outro discípulo.

E o mestre volta a perguntar:
Então não é possível falar-lhe em voz baixa?

Várias outras respostas surgiram, mas nenhuma convenceu o pensador.

Então ele esclareceu:
Vocês sabem porque se grita com uma pessoa quando se está aborrecido?
O facto é que, quando duas pessoas estão aborrecidas, os seus corações afastam-se muito. Para cobrir esta distância precisam gritar para poderem escutar-se mutuamente. Quanto mais aborrecidas estiverem, mais forte terão que gritar para se ouvirem, através da grande distância.

Por outro lado, o que sucede quando duas pessoas estão apaixonadas?
Elas não gritam. Falam suavemente. E por quê?
Porque os seus corações estão muito perto. A distância entre elas é pequena.
Às vezes os seus corações estão tão próximos ,que nem falam, somente sussurram.
E quando o amor é mais intenso, não necessitam sequer de sussurrar, apenas se olham, e basta. Os seus corações entendem-se.
É isso que acontece quando duas pessoas que se amam estão próximas.

Por fim, o pensador conclui, dizendo:
Quando vocês discutirem, não deixem que os vossos corações se afastem, não digam palavras que os distanciem mais, pois chegará um dia em que a distância será tanta que não mais encontrarão o caminho de volta.

( Mahatma Gandhi)

Para que servem os sentimentos?

Fases

2008-12-02T16:20:00.003+01:00

Passamos por diferentes fases a nossa vida toda
não quer dizer que não se repitam
mas a experiência e a sensação nunca são as mesmas
nós não somos @s mesm@s
e logo então tudo é diferente

Temos as fases em que
nascemos
crescemos
envelhecemos
morremos

Mas também em que
aprendemos
rimos
sofremos
saltamos
choramos
dançamos
criamos
enganamo-nos
enganam-nos
temos saudades
odiamos
amamos
falhamos
caímos
levantamos-nos
estamos em silêncio
falamos
descobrimos
renascemos
vivemos
sonhamos

Já foram tantas as fases
e tantas e mais serão

Mas eu recordo
com saudade
das pessoas que passaram
das amizades que já esmoreceram
e dos momentos em que vivi
e sinto que não voltarei a reviver
como antes

Não sinto tristeza
nem angústia ou desgosto
Sinto algo
que não sei
Poder-se-ía chamar de saudade
mas
pela razão
nem agora seria o mesmo

Saudade de quê?

de algo
que o meu coração não consegue desvendar
mas que sabe que o sente

Yesterday
I watched a movie with some friends
it was supposed to be a love story
but it ended being a life lesson

I was troubled
and yet not much

Troubled me more
I actually liked the movie
even
without the happy ending

Strange
I still think about the movie

Am I still learning?
always

But I prefer to believe
in love for life
and not just to learn
and get through another phase of life

Wondering

In deciding
am I feeling
or just not giving up

Be still my soul

2008-11-30T12:07:00.002+01:00

Tears come and wash my sins away
all the wrong lay beneath
my feet as I stand

But nothing makes me feel better
Today
I wish I could cry
but even that confort I am not allowed

I'll cry in my words
and thus
Some joy will enter my heart

Something has to give

2008-11-27T14:01:00.002+01:00

To be or not to be
the question is not always that
it is how to be and when to be

Changes are inevitable
and the hardest to do

But life doesn't give you a chance
and only cats have six or nine lives

Each step
takes you further away
Each word
will give you a different truth

What becomes
is never far from what is
but something has to be lost
or gained

In the end
it's the same
and never to be answered

mais uma vez

2008-11-27T13:58:00.001+01:00

o encanto desvaneceu e a razão ficou

What a day!

2008-11-21T00:30:00.004+01:00

No início, pummmmmmmm
Durante, pammmmmmmm
No final, pammmm e pummmm

Depois até que se fez luz

Haja injustiça no mundo
que não só a nossa
e eu fico logo melhor
(que coisa impossível)
talvez com a realidade de não ser a única
(já diziam os Residência)
ou simplesmente
por um acto de confiança
towards me?

E então chegar a casa
fazer tudo direitinho que havia para fazer
começando com uma música
de elevar a minha moral
ou então de acordo com a minha moral
do momento
com o soberbo
Classical Chill Out Volume one

Começa tudo a acalmar
as ideias a arrefecer
o coração a revirar
e concentrar-me no jantar

Felizmente contigo comigo
correu tudo perfect
e a companhia foi wonderful
(e esperamos que se repita
e com direito a acompanhante da próxima vez)

Ah
só mais uma coisa
o melhor mesmo
foi receber três
de uma só vez
mas totalmente inesperados
e agradavelmente lidos
relidos e admirados

Se eu não posso, alguém que o faça

2008-11-21T00:27:00.002+01:00

GRITO

Há alturas na vida
Em que se sente o pior
Como que uma saída
Refúgio na dor

E ao olhar para trás
Pensar no que aconteceu
O que se vê não apraz
Não gritou mas escondeu

E salta a fúria em nós
Rebenta o ser mais calado
Querer puxar pela voz
Mostrar que está revoltado

À espera o tempo a passar
A desesperar
Ganhar a coragem de gritar e gritar

E é nestas alturas
Sou eu mesmo que o digo
Repensamos na falta
Que nos faz um amigo

Alguém que nos mostre a luz
E nos estenda essa mão
Diga que a vida não é cruz
Olhar para trás pedir perdão

E salta a fúria em nós
Rebenta o ser mais calado
Querer puxar pela voz
Mostrar que está revoltado

À espera o tempo a passar
A desesperar
Ganhar a a coragem de gritar e gritar

Prefácio à segunda edição

2008-11-19T11:55:00.002+01:00

«Escrevo-te da Montanha, do sítio onde medram as raízes deste livro. (...) Encontrei tudo como o deixei o ano passado (...) Apenas vi mais fome, mais ignorância e mais desespero. Corre por estes montes um vento desolador de miséria que não deixa florir as urzes nem pastar os rebanhos. O social juntou-se ao natural, e a lei anda de mãos dadas com o suão a acabar de secar os olhos e as fontes. Crestados e encarquilhados, os rostos dos velhos parecem pergaminhos milenários onde uma pena cruel traçou fundas e trágicas legendas. Na cara lisa dos novos pouca mais esperança há. (...) Mas nem tudo se imprime. Ao lado do soneto ou do romance que a máquina estampa, fica na alma do artista a sua condição de homem gregário. (...) estava certo que tu, habitante dos nateiros da planície, terias em breve compreensão e amor pela sorte áspera destes teus irmãos. Que um dia virias ao encontro da aridez e da tristeza contidas nas suas fragas, não como leitor do pitoresco ou do estraho, mas como sensível criatura tocada pela magia da arte e chamada pelos imperativos da vida. Prometi isso porque me senti humilhado com tanto surro e com tanta lazeira, e envergonhado de representar o ingrato papel de cronista de um mundo que nem me pode ler. (...)»

Miguel Torga em Novos Contos da Montanha

Se o dia te acordar
e tu ainda quiseres ficar na cama
Deixa-te inebriar
pelo mundo das possibilidades

Nesta realidade
a que não podemos fugir
nem controlar
podemos tentar
tirar o melhor proveito

As escolhas que fazemos
e que nem sabemos
porque as fazemos
ou para quê
Deverão ser para nós

Escolhe ser feliz

I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared
But no one would listen
Cause no one else cared
After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When I'm done here
So if you're asking me I want you to know

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that i've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Don't be afraid
I've taken my beating
I've shared what i made
I'm strong on the surface
Not all the way through
I've never been perfect
But neither have you
So if you're asking me I want you to know

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that i've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting / all the hurt inside you learned to hide so well
Pretending / someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting / all the hurt inside you learned to hide so well
Pretending / someone else can come and save me from myself
I can't be who you are

I can't be who you are

Let me stop

2008-11-17T13:22:00.002+01:00

I was walking down the alley
thoughts bursting in my head
my heart pounding
ready to leave its sacred place
Sometimes I wish it would
so much easier
So many unsolved questions
too many deep wounds
But always in between
the worlds of before and now
the real and the dream
To stay would be a sin
and stopping
would finally set me free

Back to Earth

2008-10-28T09:39:00.001+01:00

For one who ventured far
To come back to Earth
Means to come back to Nature,
Not a men-made world.
The desire for truth,
For freedom and true love
Weigh heavy inside the hearts
Of the seekers of Avalon!
Hail to the truth
For in its light
Shines forth the Divine!
It glitters and sparkles -
The key to lasting Creation -
And upon the apple tree of old
The mistletoe thrives again.

Fade to darkness

2008-10-06T15:53:00.000+02:00

A world of colors, a world of races
Streets of brothers, pain fille faces
They're killing each other, brother against brother
Days of hunger, days of pain
Nights of longing, nights of change
Clouds of darkness filled with fear
People too cold to shed any tears
Hiding in the night, fighting the shadows
Forgetting what's right, nowhere to go
In the darkness they lose their way
In the heat they have to pay
Alone and beaten, forgotten and tired
Not wanting to fight anymore
Bitter cold creeps into their hearts
All that is good is forgotten and lost
Struggling makes no difference at all
Forgetting their past, losing their future
As they fall into the abyss of life
They fade to the darkness of the...night

stained wounds received
in the vicious fog
by the pond
at the end of the street
where rats roam

quietly I sit
watching

it's ten to midnight
my mind still swimming
among the swarms of rodents

I'm tired
want to sleep
stumble towards my bed
but it's ruined
the fog made it soggy
look around
another box should be here
somewhere
see it down the alley
shake the rats out
oh much needed sleep
under the stars
I can't see through the fog

goodnight
and I close my eyes

Happiness

2008-09-16T10:04:00.001+02:00

Be happy with what you got and don't complain
With every bit of sunshine there has to be rain
Think of someone who has less when you want more
And that happiness is always just a step from your door

There is always someone out there who needs a helping hand
And when you have a problem, one will understand.
A smile can be so much more than you could ever give
So go smiling through the world just as long as you live

There are good sides and bad sides to all things
And no one knows exactly what tomorrow brings.
Have faith, be kind, and always do your best
And the good Lord above, He will work on the rest.

Shadows fill an empty heart
As love is fading
From all the things that we are
And are not saying
Can we see beyond the scars
And make it to the dawn

Change the colors of the sky
And open up to
The ways you made me feel alive
The ways I loved you
For all the things that never died
To make it through the night
Love will find you

What About Now
What about today
What if you're making me
All that I was meant to be
What if our love never went away
What if it's lost behind
Words we could never find
Baby before its too late
What About Now

The sun is breaking in your eyes
To start a new day
This broken heart can still survive
With the touch of your grace
As shadows fade into the light
I am by your side where love will find you

What About Now
What about today
What if you're making me
All that I was meant to be
What if our love never went away
What if it's lost behind
Words we could never find
Baby before its too late
What About Now

Now that we're here
Now that we've come this far, just hold on
There is nothing to fear
For I am right beside you
For all my life I am yours

What About Now
What about today
What if you're making me
All that I was meant to be
What if our love never went away
What if it's lost behind
Words we could never find

What About Now
What about today
What if you're making me
All that I was meant to be
What if our love never went away
What if it's lost behind
Words we could never find
Baby before its too late
Baby before its too late
Baby before its too late
What About Now

Too late for human kind

Need a break

Vive amor

2008-07-28T16:00:00.002+02:00

Os dias ficam mais sombrios
embora o Verão esteja no seu auge

É tempo de férias
mas a solidão avalassa

O espírito de outrora
não volta a tornar

O belo foi
o sujo fica

As ideias esmorecem
mas o amor vive

Happy

2008-07-07T19:54:00.000+02:00

There's a man sitting down by the 405
Hitting some kind of tune on his raving guitar
He seems stranded in a desert of a million dreams
Just like life hasn't been exactly as nice as it seems

Hello, how are you?
Why are you looking so sad on a day like this?
Do you feel like talking?
Now you got me started
I wanna see a smile upon your clueless face
yeeeeeeaaaah

You could be so happy
On this brand new beautiful day
You could be so happy,heey
Like kids getting ready to play
Come on and bring it on, on and on
Nothing that you do is wrong
Come along and don't drag it on
You could be so happy
On this brand new beautiful day

You say your girlfriend is pretty
She's waiting at home
Got a safe job
And you can call a little house and Chevy your own
It all seems perfect but ain't perfect just as boring as hell
You've been craving for this
And now you're stuck just like a snail in it's shell

All that matters is that you can be free to live your
life the way you sincerely feel it
Cause life's too short
You don't wanna be a prisoner of your own illusions
And I shout it out

You could be so happy
You got somebody to love
You could be so happy
Ain't that good enough
Ain't no use to sit and drag it on,
Thinking about the mess you've done
Nothing's wrong, just bring it on
You could be so happy, you got somebody to love

na na na na na na na na na na na na
na na na na na na na na na na na na
na na na na na na na na na na na na
na na na na na na na na na na na na

You could be so happy
On this brand new beautiful day
You could be so happy
Like kids getting ready to play
Come on and bring it on, on and on
Nothing that you do is wrong
Come along and come bring it on

You could be so happy
Ain't that good enough
Ain't no use to sit and drag it on,
Think about the mess you've done
Nothing's wrong, just bring it on
You could be so happy
You got somebody to love

I see a man sittin' down by the 405
Got a smile on his face - thinking: "What a wonderful life"

Much needed changes

2008-06-30T17:14:00.000+02:00

Educators of true merit--again take over the fold
Precious minds of their youth--seem out in the cold
True lessons now taught--lives filled with guile
Dependence on machines--claims avid modern style

Computers replace brains--need fingers to count
Past love given matter--could ever truly surmount
This land of glory ever boasted--the very best
Apathy completely took over all knowledge at rest

Brains of distinction in numbers seem now very few
Monstrous guile of corruption seem the thing to do
Difficult indeed to create a happy worthy life story
The garners of vile greed--have hampered all glory

Educators of yore stressed clear minds of honor...trust
Value young minds expansion in education a true must
A strong sense of wanting plus an avid caring to try
Ever stand tall--make learning an interesting loud cry

Cavaleiro do Graal

2008-06-03T12:02:00.002+02:00

«(...) o Cavaleiro (...) tem de descobrir por si próprio o verdadeiro significado de imparcialidade, tolerância e rectidão. Uma imparcialidade na qual todos os preconceitos, particularmente os de raça, devem ser eliminados da alma; uma tolerância inspirada por um verdadeiro respeito pela igualdade dos direitos de todos os homens; uma rectidão nascida da mais profunda confiança em Deus. (...) o aspirante deve ser capaz de discriminar instantaneamente entre o moralmente real e o irreal, o eterno e o efémero. Acima de tudo, deve dar valor à capacidade (...) de liberdade espiritual, na qual, livre dos dogmas da Igreja e dos ditames de outros homens, é conduzido unicamente pela sua própria intuição moral. A partir desta liberdade espiritual, toda a sua vida deve tornar-se uma dedicação devotada a servir a humanidade, na qual todos os motivos pessoais se elevaram à altura de ideais universais.»

«(...) altruísmo, reverência pela vida, sinceridade e receptividade às necessidades dos outros.»

in A Lança do Destino de Trevor Ravenscroft (p: 96 e 102)

Longe

2008-06-03T11:59:00.001+02:00

E na solitude da noite,
os carros passam,
o vento sopra
e os pensamentos predominam

As perguntas surgem
novamente
mas as respostas permanecem
por encontrar

O fim mantém-se longe
até lá

I don't understand

2008-06-03T11:54:00.003+02:00

I don't understand
why things are the way they are
why people are the way they are
why such things happen
why I still care

If I can't kill my soul
can I kill my heart

and in dying I will find the answers I need

Emptyness

2008-06-03T11:49:00.002+02:00

The emptyness seems to have a desire of an end that I can not allow myself

Peace can never find the way if you continue to escape

The world can't possess that which it doesn't believe

Love

2008-05-29T16:13:00.002+02:00

Is love to be a perfect feeling
from perfect beings to perfect beings

Is my generation
my race
my species
perfect?

I believe not
But will love make us perfect?

For how can such a beautiful and marvelous state
be contemplate by such low beings?

I do love and am I
and althought it seems perfect
how can it be
when who I am can achieve it?

Can it really be that easy
or is it something else?

Maybe the humankind in not ready
for such an elightning perfection
But I hope we will become better

So

2008-05-17T15:53:00.003+02:00

So of late
So of bench
So of numbness

All of ok
All could be alright
All in another life

Sit to contemplate
Sit to wonder
Sit to become

Sweet about me

Gabriella Cilmi

Ohh, watching me
Hanging by
A string this time
Ohh, easily
The climax
Of the perfect lie
Ohh, watching me
Hanging by
A string this time
Ohh, easily
Smile worth
A hundred lies

If there's lessons
To be learned
I'd rather get
My jamming words
In first so
Tell you something
That I've found
That the worlds
A better place
When it's
Upside down boy

If there's lessons
To be learned
I'd rather get
My jamming words
In first so
When your playing
With desire
Don't come running
To my place
When it burns
Like fire, boy

Chorus:
Sweet about me
Nothing sweet
About me, yeah
Sweet about me
Nothing sweet
About me, yeah
Sweet about me
Nothing sweet
About me, yeah
Sweet about me
Nothing sweet
About me, yeah

Blue, blue, blue
Waves they crash
As time goes by
So hard to catch
Too, too smooth
Ain't all that
Why don't you ride
On my side
Of the tracks

If there's lessons
To be learned
I'd rather get
My jamming words
In first so
When your playing
With desire
Don't come running
To my place
When it burns
Like fire, boy

(Chorus 7x)

Colors of a Rainbow

2008-05-11T14:58:00.002+02:00

Dark and bright
Shadows of light
Things behind doors are out of sight
No matter if it's wrong or right
It's easy to see, reality bites
White and black, black and white
Mexican, Persian, Asians and Israelites
Wars and battles are harsh and mean
People you lose cannot be redeemed
Different roads, different paths
Bad attitudes and un-needed wrath
Killing, arguing and harassing is unkind
It seems as if the word peace isn't defined
Moral of the story is this world is cold
There's secrets hidden and stories untold
Whether you're white, black, red or yellow
Strive to be your best
Because they are all colors of a rainbow

Scott Ransopher

Making a list

2008-05-07T15:20:00.003+02:00

It's time
so no mistake may be made
Even though I may not express all I want
and in the way I wish others to understand
I have to try
for I mustn't leave much behind

Love Song

2008-05-06T18:06:00.001+02:00

Head under water,
And they tell me to breathe easy for a while.
The breathing gets harder, even I know that.

You made room for me but it’s too soon to see,
If I’m happy in your hands.
I’m unusually hard to hold on to.

Blank stares at blank pages.
No easy way to say this.
You mean well, but you make this hard on me.

I'm not gonna write you a love song,
'Cause you asked for it,
'Cause you need one, you see.
I'm not gonna write you a love song,
'Cause you tell me it's,
Make or breaking this.
If you’re on your way,
I'm not gonna write you to stay.
If all you have is leaving,
I’m gonna need a better reason to write you a love song today.
Today.

I learned the hard way,
That they all say things you want to hear.
My heavy heart sinks deep down under you,
And your twisted words, your help just hurts.
You are not what I thought you were.
Hello to high and dry.

Convinced me to please you.
Made me think that I need this too.
I’m trying to let you hear me as I am.

I'm not gonna write you a love song,
'Cause you asked for it,
'Cause you need one, you see.
I'm not gonna write you a love song,
'Cause you tell me it's,
Make or breaking this.
If you’re on your way,
I'm not gonna write you to stay.
If all you have is leaving,
I’m gonna need a better reason to write you a love song today.

Promise me you'll leave the light on,
To help me see with daylight, my guide, gone.
'Cause I believe there's a way you can love me because I say,

I won't write you a love song,
'Cause you asked for it,
'Cause you need one, you see.
I'm not gonna write you a love song,
'Cause you tell me it's,
Make or breaking this.
Is that why you wanted a love song,
'Cause you asked for it,
'Cause you need one, you see.
I’m not gonna write you a love song,
'Cause you tell me it's,
Make or breaking this.
If you’re on your way,
I’m not gonna write you to stay.
If your heart is nowhere in it,
I don’t want it for a minute.
Babe, I’ll walk the seven seas when I believe that there's a reason to,
Write you a love song today.
Today.

Sara Bareilles

Ridiculous Thoughts

2008-04-30T22:36:00.000+02:00

by The Cranberries

Twister, does anyone see through you
You're a twister, an animal
But you're happy now

I didn't go along with you
So happy now

But you're going to have to hold on
hold on
Or we're going to have to move on
Move on

I feel alright
And I cried so hard
The ridiculous thoughts
I feel alright Twister.

I shouldn't have trusted you
Twister It's not going to happen no
You're not going to make fun of me
Happen no

But you're going to have to hold on
You're going to have to hold on
Hold on
Or we're going to have to move on
Move on

I feel alright
And I cried so hard
The ridiculous thoughts
I feel alright

I should have lied
But I cried so hard
The ridiculous thoughts
I should have lied

But you're going to have to hold on
Hold on
But you're going to have to hold on to me

25 cravos

O dia da liberdade, que significará isso para cada um de nós?

O dia dos cravos, da revolução...

O que melhorou?

Moralidade

2008-04-17T20:30:00.002+02:00

«Olhamos o mundo com olhos morais e, ao fazê-lo, estamos invariavelmente condenados, no mínimo, ao desapontamento e, mais frequentemente, ao horror.»

«(...) todos os homens têm uma orientação moral incorporada, um sentido de rectidão e de propósito. Cada pessoa é por isso, uma entidade de total significado moral e de responsabilidade; cada um deve fazer as suas escolhas morais como se elas se transformassem instantaneamente na lei moral para todos. A questão moral é sempre: E se toda a gente fizesse isso?»

Bryan Appleyard in Os Novos Mundos (ps. 69 e 70)

O que somos

2008-04-17T20:28:00.002+02:00

«Um determinado aspecto da nossa biologia determina alguns aspectos do nosso comportamento, personalidade ou mesmo opiniões. O que nós somos é aquilo que parecemos ser - uma entidade física. E aquilo que fazemos e pensamos resulta directamente daquilo que somos.»

Bryan Appleyard in Os Novos Mundos (p.63)

Fazer bom uso (ou não)

2008-04-17T20:13:00.002+02:00

« (...) Einstein não pode ser culpado pela Bomba; ele limitou-se a elaborar a física fundamental. Se essa física foi depois utilizada para fazer uma bomba, foi porque a sociedade humana é corrupta e decadente, não porque haja algo inerentemente errado na ciência.»

Bryan Appleyard in Os Novos Mundos (p.49)

Não de natureza

2008-04-16T12:50:00.002+02:00

«Pouco a pouco, passo a passo, a criança constrói o mundo que a cerca. Do mesmo modo, o cientista constrói gradualmente a sua realidade. Como a arte, a ciência não copia a natureza. Recria-a. É decompondo aquilo que captam da realidade, para a comporem de novo, mas de outra maneira, que o pintor, o poeta ou o homem de ciência edificam a sua visão do universo. Cada um deles molda o seu modelo da realidade, optando, ora por iluminar os aspectos da sua experiência que considera mais reveladores, ora por arredar aqueles que lhe parecem sem interesse. Vivemos num mundo criado pelo nosso cérebro, num contínuo vaivém entre o real e o imaginário. Talvez o artista se apegue mais a este e o cientista mais àquele. É simplesmente uma questão de proporções. Não de natureza.»

François Jacob in O Ratinho, a Mosca e o Homem

Sobre a felicidade

2008-04-15T11:18:00.000+02:00

Aprendi a procurar a felicidade antes limitando os desejos do que tentando satisfazê-los
Stuart Mill

A walk home

2008-03-28T17:25:00.001+01:00

The air is soft
The sea is empty
The light is dim
The green is fuller
The walk is refreshing
The song of violins
The feeling is well

Everywhere

2008-03-25T16:48:00.002+01:00

Love above
Happiness within
Freedom invisible
Thinking not so clear
Feeling everywhere

DEDICATION

2008-03-20T11:48:00.000+01:00

Nothing that is shall perish utterly,
But perish only to revive again
In other forms, as clouds restore in rain
The exhalations of the land and sea.
Men build their houses from the masonry
Of ruined tombs; the passion and the pain
Of hearts, that long have ceased to beat, remain
To throb in hearts that are, or are to be.
So from old chronicles, where sleep in dust
Names that once filled the world with trumpet tones,
I build this verse; and flowers of song have thrust
Their roots among the loose disjointed stones,
Which to this end I fashion as I must.
Quickened are they that touch the Prophet's bones.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

A Song of the Rolling Earth

2008-03-20T11:45:00.000+01:00

Human bodies are words, myriads of words,
(In the best poems re-appears the body, man's or woman's,
well-shaped, natural, gay,
Every part able, active, receptive, without shame or the need of shame.)

Air, soil, water, fire--those are words,
I myself am a word with them--my qualities interpenetrate with
theirs--my name is nothing to them,
Though it were told in the three thousand languages, what would
air, soil, water, fire, know of my name?

Walt Whitman

Quando a chuva passar

2008-03-09T12:42:00.001+01:00

Compositor: Ramon Cruz

Pra que falar,
Se você não quer me ouvir,
Fugir agora não resolve nada.

Mais não vou chorar,
Se você quiser partir,
As vezes a distância ajuda,
E essa tempestade um dia vai acabar!

Só quero te lembrar de quando a gente andava nas estrelas,
Nas horas lindas que passamos juntos,
A gente só queria amar e amar,
E hoje eu tenho certeza: a nossa historia não termina agora!
Pois essa tempestade um dia vai acabar!

Quando a chuva passar,
Quando o tempo abrir,
Abra a janela e veja eu sou o sol.
Eu sou céu e mar,
Sou seu e fim,
E o meu amor é imensidão.

Só quero te lembrar de quando a gente andava nas estrelas,
Nas horas lindas que passamos juntos,
A gente só queria amar e amar,
E hoje eu tenho certeza: a nossa historia não termina agora!
Pois essa tempestade um dia vai acabar!

Quando a chuva passar,
Quando o tempo abrir,
Abra a janela e veja eu sou o sol.
Eu sou céu e mar,
Eu sou seu e fim,
E o meu amor é imensidão.

Those we love the most, hurts us the most.
Why are the feelings of our loved one the most intense?
whether they're good or bad?

Numb

2008-02-26T16:25:00.000+01:00

by Pet Shop Boys

Don't wanna hear the news
What's going on
What's coming through
I don't wanna know
Don't wanna know
Just wanna hide away
Make my my escape
I want the world
To leave me alone
Feels like I feel too much
I've seen too much
For a little while
I want to forget

I wanna be numb
I don't wanna feel this pain no more
Wanna lose touch
I just wanna go and lock the door
I don't wanna think
I don't wanna feel nothing
I wanna be numb
I just wanna be
Wanna be numb

Can't find no space to breathe
World's closing in
Right on me now
Well that's how it feels
That's how it feels
Too much light
There's too much sound
Wanna turn it off
Wanna shut it out
I need some relief
Think that I think too much
I've seen too much
There is just too much
Thought in my head

I wanna be numb
I don't wanna feel this pain no more
Wanna lose touch
I just wanna go and lock the door
I don't wanna think
I don't wanna feel nothing
I wanna be numb
I just wanna be
Wanna be
Taken away from all the madness
Need to escape
Escape from the pain
I’m out on the edge
About to lose my mind
For a little while
For a little while
I wanna be numb

I don't wanna think
I don't wanna feel nothing
I wanna be numb
I don't wanna feel this pain no more
Wanna lose touch
I just wanna go and lock the door
I don't wanna think
I don't wanna feel nothing
I wanna be numb
I just wanna be
Wanna be numb
I just wanna be
Wanna be numb

All the madness
I wanna be numb

Ninguém merece as tuas lágrimas se te fizeram sentir inferior
Ninguém merece que te sintas triste se te fizeram sentir mal
Apenas as pessoas que gostam de ti devem causar algum efeito em ti
Só aquel@s que te querem bem deverão estimar o teu bem-estar e querer ajudar-te a evoluir
Só te merece quem quer o teu bem e quem tu gostes
Não mudes pel@s que não querem o teu bem
Se mudares, muda por ti e pelos que gostam de ti, e provavelmente verás que não precisas de mudar.
Sê quem és e não quem @s outr@s querem que sejas.

Everyone is a multiversion of oneself
Noone is so right as noone is so wrong
Feeling great, feeling sad

Words can change all
Do we know what they are for?
When they are true?

Are you true?
to ourselves
to our others
to our believes
to our kind
in our life

Is there something or someone pure?

Desolation

2007-12-28T17:53:00.000+01:00

You venture through crowded doorways
Absorbing what surrounds you
Discovering what others fail to perceive
Gaining sagacity from the beaten miles

You dream up a gratifying utopia
Indulging in your vulnerable idealism
Frolicking dizzily you fall
Arms of no one catch you

You lie frightened in the night
As darkness slithers through you
Optimism submits to a forlorn cry
Solitude consumes you

Porque é que esta altura me parece mais difícil?
Não é uma altura para celebrar? para nos sentirmos bem?
Uma altura em que, se calhar, nos esforçamos mais para sermos bons para @s outr@s? em que nos sentimos melhor connosco e com @s outr@s?
Mas eu não me tenho sentido assim.
Será por tudo o que houve e continua a haver? fica aqui dentro para não mais se libertar a não ser em palavras e sensações de tristeza e uma indiferença abnormal?
Em tudo, há uma palavra de reflexão, que nem sempre leva o optimismo consigo, mas a realidade será repleta de risos ou de choros?
Que me interessa pensar em chorar ou rir, se não me controlo?
Talvez o sentido esteja por descobrir nesta época natalícia e de festa.
Não preciso de me desiludir, mas iludir.

Everything begins, everything ends

2007-12-12T19:21:00.001+01:00

Why do we believe there's something more to life?
why do we believe they'll go to a better place?
why can't we face the end?
Será que é em memória da pessoa?
para a homenagearmos e pensarmos que ainda há algo dela que continua depois?
para nos confortarmos?
para a confortar?

Tudo tem um início e tudo tem um fim.

Porque é que ainda se acredita?

Hoje ouvi, de alguém nos seus trinta que está a morrer com cancro e que já tinha sido operado anteriormente, dizer que após a sua primeira operação à situação que o está a matar, e que à partida tinha corrido tudo bem, que foi a Fátima pedir a Nossa Senhora de Fátima que ainda o deixasse viver sem mais problemas de cancro, para ver crescer os seus filhos de 4 e 7 (não tem nenhum parente vivo)...
agora alguém que me diga, como é possível que haja fé???!!!

30 Seconds To Mars - From Yesterday

2007-11-14T11:44:00.000+01:00

He’s a stranger to some
And a vision to none
He can never get enough,
Get enough of the one

For a fortune he'd quit
But it’s hard to admit
How it ends and begins
On his face is a map of the world
(A map of the world)

On his face is a map of the world
(A map of the world)

From yesterday, it’s coming!
From yesterday, the fear!
From yesterday, it calls him
But he doesn't want to read the message here

On a mountain he sits, not of gold but of shit
Through the blood he can look, see the life that it took
From the council of one
He’s decided when he’s done with the innocent

On his face is a map of the world
(A map of the world)
On his face is a map of the world
(A map of the world)

From yesterday, it’s coming!
From yesterday, the fear!
From yesterday, it calls him
But he doesn't want to read the message here
But he doesn't want to read the message here
But he doesn't want to read the message here
But he doesn't want to read the message here

On his face is a map of the world

From yesterday, it’s coming!
From yesterday, the fear!
From yesterday, it calls him
But he doesn't want to read the message here
From yesterday,
From yesterday,
From yesterday, the fear
From yesterday,
From yesterday
But he doesn't want to read the message here

Threads

2007-10-24T17:35:00.000+02:00

I unravel threads torn from my sanity,
weaving garments pleasing to your vanity;
now the monk's black cowl conceals a motley jester,
hides a heart of holiest profanity.
In pretense of prayer, I seem oblivious
to your whispered words, depraved, lascivious;
deep within my soul the leering ape ancestor
howls and mocks this pretense of humanity.

When a muted love speaks its ambivalence,
let me don the garb of gaudy eloquence;
choose some torn and tailored suit of my despair,
yet another patch upon my reticence.
These remain my secrets, these remain my lies;
these are sins I must keep hidden from your eyes.
Which of my fine empty rags shall next I wear,
best to clothe the silence, feigning innocence?

As unravel threads, my ill-stitched seams will fray;
I come ever to you in such disarray,
all my nakedness veiled in false modesty
tracing steps of my own decadent ballet.
For each lover will become the one in time
and, together, name the price paid for this crime;
then in penitent's robes, seeking amnesty,
shall I doff the tangled threads of yesterday.

Parabéns atrasados

O tempo passa, mas as memórias não
Embora o dia já tenha sido, os meus Parabéns mantêm-se

Happy wishes :D

Blinding Horizon

2007-10-23T22:22:00.000+02:00

a soul swirling inside
the body gone galloping
upon a black stallion horse

see a fortress ahead
wounded bodies everywhere
total mayhem

sophisticated thoughts
race out the mouth
no time to believe in yourself
life too difficult
insane moments
reality left in the dust

yet a soul still swirls inside
a body seen galloping away
in the blinding horizon

Follow ahead

2007-10-23T22:19:00.000+02:00

A new day approaches, but I think I would like to sleep
Not all we want comes true
Not all we thought, we continue to think

Is it better to look behind ou just follow ahead?

Busca dentro de ti

2007-10-01T15:52:00.001+02:00

Busca dentro de ti la solución de todos los problemas, hasta aquellos que creas más exteriores y materiales.
Dentro de ti está siempre el secreto, dentro de ti están todos los secretos.
Aún para abrirte camino en la selva virgen, aún para levantar un muro, aún para tender un puente, has de buscar antes, en ti, el secreto.
Dentro de ti hay tendidos ya todos los puentes, están las malezas y lianas que cierran los caminos.
Todas las arquitecturas están ya levantadas dentro de ti.
Pregunta al arquitecto escondido: él te dará sus fórmulas.
Antes de ir a buscar el hacha de más filo, la piqueta más dura, la pala más resistente, entra en tu interior, y pregunta.
Y sabrás lo esencial de todos los problemas y se te enseñará la mejor de todas las fórmulas, y se te dará la más sólida de las herramientas.
Y acertarás constantemente, pues dentro de ti llevas la luz misteriosa de todos los secretos.

A birthday should always be happy, in the presence of those we love.
But in the absence of what we wish, we must contemplate on what remains.
Here's a toast to you and have yourself a nice and lovely birthday :)

Where did I go wrong?

Com um estilo musical diferente do que eu costumo ouvir, esta artista conseguiu seduzir os meus ouvidos e fazer-me gostar das suas músicas.
Por um lado, são músicas que animam e elevam o espírito (a um ritmo acelerado), por outro as letras chegam-nos ao coração.
Com estilos de Pop, Eurodance, Dance e Electrónica, a sua música passa nas discotecas, mas ouve-se muito bem em casa (para começar o dia, por exemplo) :)

If Everyone Cared

2007-07-31T03:19:00.000+02:00

From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
Confusing stars for satellites
I never dreamed that you’d be mine
But here we are, we’re here tonight

Singing Amen, I’m alive
Singing Amen, I’m alive

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We’d see the day when nobody died
And I’m singing

Amen I, I’m alive
Amen I, I’m alive

And in the air the fireflies
Our only light in paradise
We’ll show the world they were wrong
And teach them all to sing along

Singing Amen I’m alive
Singing Amen I’m alive

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We’d see the day when nobody died
If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We’d see the day when nobody died

And as we lie beneath the stars
We realize how small we are
If they could love like you and me
Imagine what the world could be

If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We’d see the day when nobody died

We’d see the day, we’d see the day
When nobody died
We’d see the day, we’d see the day
When nobody died
We’d see the day when nobody died
