ENJOY THE SILENCE [depeche mode]
Words like violence break the silence
Come crashing in into my little world
Painful to me pierce right through me
Can’t you understand oh my little girl
.
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
.
Vows are spoken to be broken
Feelings are intense words are trivial
Pleasures remain so does the pain
Words are meaningless and forgettable
.
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
.
Enjoy the silence

* essa música é velha e de criança eu gostava dela, mas a letra acho fofis demais. ainda mais quando ele diz "can't you understand oh my little girl" - só porque sempre quis ser chamada assim... mas nunca fui. chuifs.

A YEAR IN THE PAST FOREVER IN THE FUTURE [grade]
This is a time in my life where everything is falling apart,
and at the same time it's all coming together.
Those summer days that I longed for never really were
what I wanted them to be.
Just like when beautiful people drive ugly cars.
I'm hitting the road again with five of my best friends.
We always seem to disagree, but I still enjoy their company.
And when I leave I'll make you another mixed tape.
Those singers always know just what to say.
My throat's already hurting, and it isn't even the first day.
The record sounds great, but for some reason
I can't pull it off from day to day.

* na realidade só a primeira frase (talvez a segunda também, mas quando se fala em 'hit the road' com 5 amigos a coisa muda. eu nem saio de casa direito!!!) me toca de verdade, mas a melodia dessa música é divertida então acabo por cantá-la até o fim, sempre.

REINVENTING AXL ROSE [against me!]
We want a band that plays loud
and hard every night
That doesn't care how many people
are counted at the door
That would travel one million miles
and ask for nothing more
than a plate of food and a place to rest.
They'd strike chords that cut like a knife
It would mean so much more
than t-shirts or a ticket stub
They'd stop at nothing short of a massacre
Everyone would leave with the memory that
there was no place else in the world
And this was where they always belonged
We would dance like no one was watching
With one fist in the air
Our arena just basements and bookstores
across an underground America
With this fire we could light
Just gimme a scene where the music is free
And the beer is not the life of the party
There's no need to shit talk or impress
'Cause honesty and emotion
are not looked down upon
And every promise that's made and bragged
is meant if not kept
We'd do it all because we have to,
not because we know why
Beyond a gender, race, and class,
we could find what really holds us back
Let's make everybody sing
That they are the beginning
and ending of everything
That we all are stronger than everything
they taught us that we should fear

* essa música é altamente inspiradora e a letra tem vários trechos que eu repetiria o dia todo inúmeras vezes se tivesse mais memória. é totalmente socos no ar, borboletas no estômago e um puta sopro de esperança no coração.

LITTLE SISTER [queens of the stone age]
Hey sister why you all alone?
I'm standing out your window
Hey little sister, can I come inside, dear?
I wanna show you all my love
I wanna be the only one
I know you like nobody ever, baby
Little sister can't you find another way
No more livin life behind a shadow
You whisper secrets in my ear
Slowly dancing cheek to cheek
it's such a sweet thing when you open up, baby
They say I'll only do you wrong
we come together cause I understand
Just who you really are, baby

* essa música é linda, e essa letra, doce demais. tinha que estar aqui.

ON GUARD [le tigre]
you can comment all day til dark
you can call me any name you want
you can look me up and down
i won´t stop, no, i won´t fall apart
you can put me down, you can make me mad
you can call me mean, but i think it´s really sad that
sometimes i just wanna stay inside
i guess it makes you happy that i live my life
ON GUARD.
stop, thief, you can´t steal the way
i fuckin felt when i got up today
well, i guess you´re the judge
guess you´re the king of the forever beauty pageant i´m always in
my heart beats blue, beats red, beats mad
is this the only power that you really wanna have?
count from one to nine, how high do i rate?
i guess feeling good was my first mistake
EN GARDE.
let me see you shake it, baby shake it some more...

*
sabe quando você acorda se sentindo bem, e sempre tem alguém querendo te deixar pra baixo? não foi hoje, mas tô com essa música na cabeça. fora que my heart beats blue, beats red, beats mad, é foda.
