Resolução

".... have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and... try to love (...) the questions themselves (...) as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language.... (...) live(...) the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer."

Rainer Maria Rilke

Estrela Cadente Vs Sol Poente (ou as ilusões de um reflexo)

Por vezes...

E por vezes as noites duram meses
E por vezes os meses oceanos
E por vezes os braços que apertamos
nunca mais são os mesmos E por vezes

encontramos de nós em poucos meses
o que a noite nos fez em muitos anos
E por vezes fingimos que lembramos
E por vezes lembramos que por vezes

ao tomarmos o gosto aos oceanos
só o sarro das noites não dos meses
lá no fundo dos copos encontramos

E por vezes sorrimos ou choramos
E por vezes por vezes ah por vezes
num segundo se envolam tantos anos.

Could I have been
A parking lot attendant
Could I have been
A millionaire in bel air
Could I have been
Lost somewhere in paris
Could I have been
Your little brother
Could I have been anyone other than me
Could I have been oh, anyone other than me
Could I have been anyone
He stands touch his hair his shoes untied
Tongue gaping stare
Could I have been a magnet for money
Could I have been anyone other than me
Twenty three
Im so tired of life
Such a shame to throw it all away
The images grow darker still
Could I have been anyone other then me?
Then i
Look up at the sky
My mouth is open wide, like and taste
Whats the use in worrying, whats the use in hurrying
Turn turn we almost become dizzy
I am who I am who I am well who am i
Requesting some enlightenment
Could I have been anyone other than me?
And then ill
Sing and dance and Ill play for you tonight
The thrill of it all
Dark clouds may hang on me sometimes
But Ill work it out
And then i
Falling out of a world of lies
Could I have been dancing nancy
Dancing nancy
Could I have been anyone other than me?

Red in the dark side

Satori

Year after year
I dug in the earth
looking for the blue of heaven
only to feel
the pile of dirt
choking me
until once in the dead of night
I tripped on a broken brick
and kicked it into the air
and saw that without a thought
I had smashed the bones
of the empty sky

Choices

Ten fingers counting we have each
Nine planets around the sun repeat
Eight ball will last if you triumphant be
Seven oceans pummel the shores of the sea

It's a typical situation
In these typical times
Too many choices, yeah
It’s a typical situation
In these typical times
Too many choices.

Everybody's happy
Everybody’s free
We'll keep the big door open
Everyone'll come around
Why are you different
Why are you that way
If you don’t get in line
We'll lock you away

It all comes down to nothing

Six senses feeling
Five around a sense of self
Four seasons turn on and turn off
I can see three corners from this corner
Two’s a perfect number
But one, well

Everybody's happy
Everybody's free
We'll keep the big door open
Everyone'll come around
Why are you different?
Why are you that way?
If you don't get in line
We'll lock you away

It all comes down to nothing

It's a typical situation
In these typical times
Too many choices, yeah
It’s a typical situation
In these typical times
Too many choices
We can’t do a thing about it
Too many choices, yeah
It’s a typical situation in these typical times..

Everybody...

The Leaving Feeling

Stuart S. Staples :
I get that leaving feeling
This time it's here to stay
I've been weighing up the pulling
And pushing me away
The past is so heavy
But it's something I can't leave
And this future is so certain
It just pushes me to my knees

Lhasa :
Is that your heart talking
Or just that befuddled mind
The people that you love
They change when you leave them behind

Stuart S. Staples :
But this rope that is pulling
Is whittled down to a thread
And if I don't start climbing
Pretty soon it'll be over my head

Lhasa :
We all have dreams of leaving
We all want to make a new start
Go and pack a little suitcase
With the pieces of our hearts
All those worries and those sorrows
We can just toss them away
Buy a coffee and a paper
And those step on to a train

Stuart S. Staples :
But I've been too long wandering
Limping around this town
With everything that's pulling me
Is pulling me further down

Lhasa :
Go make all your excuses
Go say all you goodbyes
But take a look in the mirror
It's the hardest one you'll ever find
All those worries and those sorrows
You can just toss them away
Go find a new tomorrow
And forget about your yesterdays
So go and pat your kids
And kiss your dog goodbye
Leave your keys on the nail
With the sadness that's in your eyes

Stuart S. Staples :
Maybe tomorrow, today looks like it's bringing rain
And I'll leave everything in order
I don't want nothing standing in my way
There are jobs that need tending
And the logs that are waiting to stack
And I'll leave everything in order
I don't want nothing that's going to hold me back

Ao som desta brisa fresca

Consider the core of the mind to be a wagon,with willpower being carried about in it. Push it to a place where there can be failure, and there will be failure. Push it to a place where there can be success, and there will be success.

Tinder

She’s my oblivion – still her around
Out on the balcony – she waits for me
Out on the boundary – she smiles

She’s my oblivion
Which way to turn?
The edges of our love are in the stars
Down the balcony
She waits for me
Out on the boundary
She smiles

Make this alive
Good days are back
Open your eyes when it falls
Come back to the air

I can’t tell you what you already know
I can’t make you feel what you already feel
I can’t show you what’s in front of you
I can’t heal those scars

She’s my oblivion
And my skin burns
Her hands all over me
She whispers:
“The edges of our love are in the stars” (choir)

Good days are alive
Good days are back
Open your eyes when it falls
Come back to the air

So look down to the street below
Don’t look up to the stars above
You look around
See what’s in front of you
Don’t look down, don’t look down

Can you see the light?
It shines onto us tonight
Can you see the light?
It’s all around you

Qual é a diferença entre o sim e o não?
Qual é a diferença entre o bem e o mal?
Devo recear o que os outros receiam?
Devo recear a desolação quando existe abundância?
Devo recear a escuridão quando a luz brilha por toda a parte?
(...)
Vagueio como uma onda no oceano.
Sopro tão sem objectivo como o vento.

Lao-Tzu

No quiero decirte nada.

Agua, ¿dónde vas?
Riyendo voy por el río
a las orillas del mar.

Mar, ¿adónde vas?

Río arriba voy buscando
fuente donde descansar.

Chopo, y tú ¿qué harás?

No quiero decirte nada.
Yo... ¡temblar!

¡Qué deseo, qué no deseo,
por el río y por la mar!

(Cuatro pájaros sin rumbo
en el alto chopo están).

Federico García Lorca
