The magic position
So let the people talk
It's Monday morning walk
It's the most fabulous that there is
It's gonna be a beautiful day
So do the bluebirds sing
As I take your hand
You take mine here
I would take the world now
And out of all the people I've known
The places I've been
The songs that I've sung
The wonders I've seen
Now that the dreams are all coming true
Who is the one that leads me on through
It's you
Who puts me in the magic position, darling now
You put me in the magic position
To live, to learn, to love in the major key
I know how you've hurt
You've been dragged through the dirt
C'mon get back up
It's time to live
So give your love to me
I'm gonna keep it carefully
Deep in a treasure chest below my breast
'Cause out of all the people I've known
The places I've been
The songs that I've sung
The wonders I've seen
Now that the dreams are all coming true
Who is the one that leads me on through
It's you
Who puts me in the magic position, darling now
You put me in the magic position, darling now
Let me put you in the magic position, darling
'Cause I'm singing in the, the major key
Let me put you in the major key

Sunday morning, praise the dawning
Its just a restless feeling by my side
Early dawning, sunday morning
Its just the wasted years so close behind

Watch out, the worlds behind you
Theres always someone around you who will call
Its nothing at all

Sunday morning and Im falling
Ive got a feeling I dont want to know
Early dawning, sunday morning
Its all the streets you crossed, not so long ago

Watch out, the worlds behind you
Theres always someone around you who will call
Its nothing at all

Watch out, the worlds behind you
Theres always someone around you who will call
Its nothing at all

we know a place...

We know a place where no planes go
We know a place where no ships go

(Hey!) No cars go
(Hey!) No cars go
Where we know

We know a place no space ships go
We know a place where no subs go

(Hey!) No cars go
(Hey!) No cars go
Where we know

(Hey!)
(Hey!)
(Mom, Dad!)
(No go!)

(Hey!) Us kids know
(Hey!) No cars go
Where we know

Between the click of the light
and the start of the dream

I don't want any pushing,
and I don't want any shoving.
We're gonna do this in an orderly

Manner. Women and children!
Women and children!
Women and children,
Let's go! Old folks,

los años pasan para "casi" todo

I sit at my table and wage war on myself
It seems like it's all, it's all for nothing
I know the barricades, and
I know the mortar in the wall breaks
I recognize the weapons, I used them well

This is my mistake. Let me make it good
I raised the wall and I will be the one to knock it down

I've a rich understanding of my finest defenses
I proclaim that claims are left unstated,
I decree a stalemate
I demand a rematch
I divine my deeper motives
I recognize the weapons
I've practiced them well. I fitted them myself

It's amazing what devices you can sympathize, empathize
This is my mistake. Let me make it good
I raised the wall and I will be the one to knock it down

Reach out for me and hold me tight. Hold that memory
Let my machine talk to me, let my machine talk to me

This is my world
And I am world leader pretend
This is my life
And this is my time
I have been given the freedom
To do as I see fit
It's high time I've razed the walls
That I've constructed

It's amazing what devices you can sympathize, empathize
This is my mistake. Let me make it good
I raised the wall and I will be the one to knock it down

You fill in the mortar. You fill in the harmony
You fill in the mortar. I raised the wall
And I'm the only one
I will be the one to knock it down

no me importa que no me importe

People think that we don't understand
What it takes to outta be a man

I don’t care much for that
I don’t know why

Just a fight or just a waste of time
Hiding things that no one wants to find

I don’t know much of that
I don’t care why

Goin’ against your mind

When I was a kid I saw a light
Floating high above the trees one night

Thought ‘twas an alien
Turned out to be just god

If you’re not sure who not to believe
Who has better reasons to decieve

Then they’ll be glad’r
That's all they do

Goin’ against your mind

And he was there
No he was there


goin’ against your mind
built to spill - you in reverse

transtorno bipolar

la piel de cordero empieza a dar síntomas de debilidad, ya me queda pequeña, me oprime, algunas costuras han dicho basta, y me paso las noches remendándolas.

mi estilista me ha recomendado que me corte el pelo, que me vista siempre de negro, que trabaje mi mirada, que no ría los chistes de los demás, que mi gesto sea adusto y serio, debo transmitir respeto, incluso intimidar.
que se acabó lo de coser por las noches, que me arranque la piel y deje salir "el lobo que hay en mí".
no sé si despedirle o hacerle caso.

cada día tengo las cosas más claras, por eso cada día lo veo todo más oscuro.
y me paso las horas mirando al techo, esperando ver pasar al sueño.


...
let me back
i promise to be good
don't look in the mirror
at the face you don't recognize
help me
call the doctor
put me inside
put me inside
...
i keep the wolf from the door
but he calls me up
calls me on the phone
tells me all the ways that he's gonna mess me up
steal all my children
if i don't pay the ransom
but i'll never see him again
if i squeal to the cops

1,2,3, sol

Una cosa más vamos a cantar,
una oración al desayunar.

Gracias por venir.
Gracias, ¿Cuánto tardas en salir de allí?
Tantas vueltas para acabar en el refranero.
¿Y qué te esperabas?

La mañana ya llegó, hoy puede ser un gran día.

¡Ya sale el sol!
¡Por el balcón!

Vasos, cucharas...
a través de tu risa la vida me pide perdón.
Vasos, cucharas, buenas caras.

Sube a la mesa...

Una cosa más... vamos a cambiar
toda la ilusión por curiosidad.

¡Ya sale el sol!
¡Por el balcón!

Cuántas vueltas para acabar en el perchero...
junto a la mesa.

Vasos, cucharas...
romper un silencio así ya tiene perdón.

¡Viva la guerra!

La mañana ya llegó, hoy puede ser un gran día.
La mañana ya llegó... hoy puede ser...

terra nova

How could I
Have led these men to their demise
And they just follow?
Exploration's last great prize
It wasn't mine

And mores the shame
You will remember my name

Great god
This is an awful place
And I do not think that we can hope
For any better things now
Oh the end
Cannot be far
It cannot be far
I cannot wait
Explorations last great prize
A saving grace
It wasn't mine

And mores the shame
You will remember my name

dondante In a dream I saw you walkin, like a kid alive and talkin, that was you. In the classroom you were teachin, on the streets you were policing that was you. To the one I now know most, I will tell them of your ghost like a thing, that never, ever was. And all that ever mattered will some day turn back to batter like a joke. Behind thin walls you hid your feelins, take four legs to make a ceilin like a thing. In a dream I saw you walkin, with your friends alive and talking, that was you. Well I saw it in your movement, and even though you never knew it. Well, I knew, just how sweet it could be, if you'd never left these streets. You had me worried! So worried, that this would last... But now I'm learning, learning that this will pass... dondante my morning jacket - z [ato Records; 2005]

funeral

I'm coming up only to hold you under
I'm coming up only to show you wrong
And to know you is hard and we wonder
To know you all wrong, we were

Really too late to call, so we wait for
Morning to wake you; it's all we got
To know me as hardly golden
Is to know me all wrong, they were

At every occasion I'll be ready for a funeral
At every occasion once more is called a funeral
Every occasion I'm ready for the funeral
At every occasion one brilliant day funeral

I'm coming up only to show you down for
I'm coming up only to show you wrong
To the outside, the dead leaves, they all blow (alive is very poetic)
For'e (before) they died had trees to hang their hope

At every occasion I'll be ready for the funeral
At every occasion once more is called the funeral
At every occasion I'm ready for the funeral
At every occasion one brilliant day funeral


the great salt lake

Back of the boat was painted wrecking ball
There was country music playing but he don’t like it all

There was whiskey bottle spilling and a lake it was made of salt

Well look out back there was a note on the door it saying,
“Everybody listen we will be the next on the hope ”

Well if you find yourself falling apart
Well I am sure I could steer
The great salt lake
Falling apart
Well I am sure I could steer
The great salt lake

Your old man was but a wishing machine
It’s time that you could spin
Now that he is getting old
the watering hole
It’s a place to lay south or the heads of coyote

Now if you find yourself falling apart
Well I am sure I could steer
The great salt lake

Follow me home
We want more
Follow me home
We all want more
If ever beat down
We know who we are
They know who we are
If ever beat down
We know who we are
They all know we want more

vertedero

los bebés aprenden sin darse cuenta de que están aprendiendo (me he documentado), y he llegado a la conclusión de que así es como nosotros aprendemos a ser tratados como basura, sin darnos cuenta.
espero que tengas suerte y te reciclen, que no vayas a parar a un vertedero, en el que niños que apenas han aprendido a caminar busquen en tus entrañas chapas de refrescos y las guarden cuidadosamente en tarros de cristal, como sí del más preciado tesoro se tratase.
y es que no conozco mayor prueba de mi hipocresía que el vertedero en que me he convertido.

and she's gone

la luna nueva se bate en retirada
veloz ejército negro
que oscuridad traía
y se encontró tu mirada

buenas noches y buena suerte

tanto tiempo rastreando versos ajenos en busca de palabras que me ayudasen a escribirte y describirme y lo único que tenía que decir es "te quiero".
no lamento el tiempo empleado, sólo el tiempo perdido.

excitación

nada que decir, sólo acordes revoloteando por mis oídos externo y medio que recogen ondas sonoras para conducirlas a mi oído interno donde los receptores de mis nervios auditivos expectantes, aguardan su llegada, ávidos de excitación.
y es que, a parte de tus inesperadas apariciones, pocas son las cosas que me excitan ya.




I'm in love with your brother
What's his name
I thought I'd come by
to see him again
when you to dance
oh what a dance
when you to lough
oh what a lough

does he mention my age
or is he more in to young girls with dyed black hair

I'm in love with your brother
I'd thought I'd come by

I'm in love with your brother
Yes I am
but maybe I
shouldn't ask for his name
and you dance
oh what a dance
And you laughed
oh what a laugh

Does he know what I do and
you'll pass this on, won't you and?
If I asked him once what would he say
Is he willing,
can he play?

I wasn't really looking for some more the some
company on the dancefloor and
Does he know what I do and
you'll pass this on, won't you and?

Does he know what I do and,
you'll pass this on, won't you?
And if I ask him once,
what would he say?
is he willing, can he play?

donde los pájaros azules vuelan

me gustaría enfadarme,
pero es tan cansado
y estoy tan cansado...
me gustaría esperarte
donde los pájaros azules vuelan.
que el viento se llevase la tristeza,
como se lleva las hojas secas,
que me llevase a mí con ellas,
y que nos dejase allí,
donde tú me esperás,
donde los pájaros azules vuelan.
las horas caen, igual que hojas secas,
pero el viento no espera,
no se arremolinarán,
no serán barridas, ni pisadas
desaparecerán,
volarán a ese lugar que nunca existió,
donde tú me esperas,
donde los pájaros azules vuelan.



Inside of love
Nada Surf - Let go
[Emi; 2002]

¿estás ahí?

lo hago por y para mí, pero al mismo tiempo pienso si estarás ahí.
me gustaría que estuvieses.

Are you there?
is it wonderful to know
all the ghosts...
all the ghosts...
freak my selfish out
my mind is happy
need to learn to let it go
I know you'd do no harm to me
but since you've been gone I've been lost inside
tried and failed as we walked by the riverside
and I wish you could see the love in her eyes
the best friend that eluded you lost in time
burned alive in the heat of a grieving mind
but what can I say now?
it couldn't be more wrong
cos there's no one there
unmistakably lost and without a care
did we lose all the love that we could have shared
and its wearing me down
and its turning me round
and I can't find a way
now to find it out
where are you when I need you...
are you there?





are you there?
