and from your lips she drew the hallelujah

baby i've been here before
i've seen this room and i've walked this floor
i used to live alone before i knew you
i've seen your flag on the marble arch
but love is not a victory march
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Destaque de fim de semana

O Norte por Miguel Esteves Cardoso.

but the rules did not know me...

On bended knee is no way to be free
Lifting up an empty cup, I ask silently
All my destinations will accept the one that's me
So I can breathe...

Circles they grow and they swallow people whole
Half their lives they say goodnight to wives they'll never know
A mind full of questions, and a teacher in my soul
And so it goes...

Don't come closer or I'll have to go
Holding me like gravity are places that pull
If ever there was someone to keep me at home
It would be you...

Everyone I come across, in cages they bought
They think of me and my wandering, but I'm never what they thought
I've got my indignation, but I'm pure in all my thoughts
I'm alive...

Wind in my hair, I feel part of everywhere
Underneath my being is a road that disappeared
Late at night I hear the trees, they're singing with the dead
Overhead...

Leave it to me as I find a way to be
Consider me a satellite, forever orbiting
I knew all the rules, but the rules did not know me
Guaranteed

I don't need drugs.

To have the smack flowing through my veins.

Grandes frases

“Gostava de sublinhar que a larga maioria dos alunos teve nota positiva tanto a Português como a Matemática. Isso deve-nos encher de orgulho. É muito positivo e muito bom para o país.”

The Universal

It really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
If the days they seem to fall through you
Well, just let them go

este post tinha de ser escrito.

Para agradecer a alguém que foi, é, e sempre será especial.

Weil sie hat mich steh auf :), e provou que, no final de contas, há amizades infinitas, há pessoas necessárias e há obstáculos intransponíveis que são ultrapassados.

Obrigado... sim, este post é para ti, e esta música é para te agradecer para saberes que também estou aqui, para te dizer: "Steh auf", se for preciso.

Wenn du mit dir am Ende bist
und du einfach nicht weiter willst,
weil du dich nur noch fragst
warum und wozu und was dein Leben noch bringen soll

Halt durch, auch wenn du allein bist!
Halt durch, schmeiß jetzt nicht alles hin!
Halt durch, und irgendwann wirst du verstehen,
dass es jedem einmal so geht.

Und wenn ein Sturm dich in die Knie zwingt,
halt dein Gesicht einfach gegen den Wind.
Egal, wie dunkel die Wolken über dir sind,
sie werden irgendwann vorüberziehn.

Steh auf, wenn du am Boden bist!
Steh auf, auch wenn du unten liegst!
Steh auf, es wird schon irgendwie weitergehn!

Es ist schwer, seinen Weg nicht zu verliern,
und bei den Regeln und Gesetzen hier
ohne Verrat ein Leben zu führn,
das man selber noch respektiert

Auch wenn die Zeichen gerade alle gegen dich stehn
und niemand auf dich wetten will,
du brauchst hier keinem irgendeinen Beweis zu bringen,
es sei denn es ist für dich selbst!

Steh auf, wenn du am Boden bist!
Steh auf, auch wenn du unten liegst!
Steh auf, es wird schon irgendwie weitergehn!

Nur keine Panik, so schlimm wird es nicht!
Mehr als deinen Kopf reißt man dir nicht weg!
Komm und sieh nach vorn!

PS: E sim, não deixo de ser o teu sempre AS... ;) :p

bitte.

Es ist verrückt, wie schön du schweigst
Wie du dein hübsches Köpfchen neigst
Und so der ganzen lauten Welt und mir
Die kalte Schulter zeigst

...

Fruto Proibido!

Será que a candidata do PS à Câmara do Porto está a dar uma de Eva e anda de olho no Fruto Proibido?

Yet again,

caught in a fucking web of lies. And left there to die at the hands of some other spider.

The return of the thin white duke

Rua Miguel Bombarda - Junho 2009

Once there were mountains on mountains
And once there were sunbirds to soar with
And once I could never be down
Got to keep searching and searching
Oh, what will I be believing and who will connect me with love?

David Bowie, Station to Station

Velhas palavras espalhadas no sussurro da desarrumação do meu escritório. Espero as forças para as organizar, empacotar, encaixotar.

É o triste destino dos sentimentos: perdidos numa qualquer raiva despejada sobre papéis que lentamente envelhecem.
