Life is not a movie

Life is not a movie

Life is not a play

Life is not a video clip

Life has no soundtrack

Life has no songs

I’m not a star

I’m not an actor

I’m not a singer …

Life is made for those who are alive

It is made for those who want to be alive

What makes you feel alive?

What makes you keep going on and on?

Even with all your doubts,

Why are you still alive?

What do you live for?

Do you live your life for yourself?

Or do you it for someone else?

Or do you live it for everybody else?

I guess we should live our life for ourselves…

But why I still think that is everybody obligation to care about other people’s minds?

I think that everyone must care about the ones arround them. But that’s not everybody who cares about it…

I decided to do. I decided to care. I’ve stopped to live just to myself and started to live thinking  about everybody else arround me.  For this I had to become an actor, and I made to my life became a great theater. When I did it, started searching for songs to fit in every part of my life. Different movies and video clips became a model of what I wanted to feel and wanted to make everybody else feel too.

But life is not a movie, a play or a video clip… It has no soundtrack or even one song… I’m not a star, an actor or a singer…

But who cares?

As long as I’m happy with the way I’m living my life. I don’t care if it is real or if it is a big illusion… I’ll keep acting.

The Reason Of My Affection

The reason of my affection

Should I face the reason of my affection?

Why should I?

They say that it wold be good to me,

And it would for him too…

I guess That’s the reason of my doubt.

Do I want to let he be happy?

Do I want to make he suffer as I did and I do?

To do nothing about it is really harmful to him?

To me?

Maybe I’m staying this way because  I can hurt him without feeling guilty about it.

But now that i’ve realised it, what am I going to do?

Should I face him?

Is it so bad to want to hurt him?

Am I really happy with his pain?

To know that he is suffering with me is better than to release him from his pain and suffer alone?

To make him suffer is really helping me to get over my own pain?

Maybe I’m not a such good person as I thought…

I told them that I was releasing them of me.

Releasing them of this problematique.

But I knew that I was going to cause them more pain.

And putting them into a situation closer to mine.

To face him is really the best thing to do?

Will I be strong enough for it?

Will I have the guts for it?

The last time that I’ve tried to make things get better it all ended this way…

Am I stronger now?

Will I be able to look at those eyes?

Will I be able to look to the reason of my affection and release him from his pain?

Will I be able to let him be happy, and untie bond that united us to the same miserable situation?

As bad as this situation is, I think this is the only way to feel him close to me…

Will I be able to free him from myself?

Will I be able to free myself from him?

Do I want to?

Do I need to?

Will I be able to?

Is there a way to do it?

Will it make thing better?

Will it make thing worse?

Well,

I don’t know,

But I hope things can’t get worse than they already are,

An all I can do is to hope.

Page France – Discografia

 

Descobri recentemente Page France, e desde então são raros os dias em que não escuto ou cantarolo em minha cabeça uma musica deles. Já tinha postado sobre essa banda antes, mas resolvi apagar o post e colocar toda a discografia no blog, pois eles tem outros cds e eps maravilhosos. xD

Death Cab For Cutie – Expo ’86

Sometimes i think this cycle never ends

We slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again

And it seems by the time that i have figured what it’s worth

The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse.

But if i move my place in line i’ll lose.

And i have waited, the anticipation’s got me glued.

I am waiting for something to go wrong.

I am waiting for familiar resolve.

Sometimes it seems that i don’t have the skills to recollect

The twists and turns of plots that took us from lovers to friends

I’m thinking i should take that volume back up off the shelf

And crack it’s weary spine and read to help remind myself

But if i move my place in line i’ll lose.

And I have waited, the anticipation’s got me glued.

I am waiting for something to wrong

I am waiting for familiar resolve

I am waiting for another repeat

Another diet fed by crippling defeat

And i am waiting for that sense of relief

I am waiting for you to flee the scene

As if you held in your hand the smoking gun

And on the floor lay the one you said you loved.

And it’s strange

They are basically the same

So i don’t ask names anymore.

Sometimes i think this cycle never ends

We slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again

And it seems by the time that i have figured what it’s worth

The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse.

The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse [x2]
