sono tornati

 Placebo - For What It’s Worth
The end of the century
I said my goodbyes
For what it’s worth
I always aim to please
But I nearly died
For what it’s worth
Come on lay with me
‘Cause I’m on fire
For what it’s worth
I tear the sun in three
To light up your eyes

For what it’s worth
For what it’s worth
For what it’s worth
For what it’s worth
Broke up the family
Everybody cried
For what it’s worth
I have a slow disease
That sucked me dry
For what it’s worth
Come on walk with me
Into the rising tide

For what it’s worth
Filled a cavity
Your god shaped hole tonight
For what it’s worth
For what it’s worth
For what it’s worth
For what it’s worth
For what it’s worth
For what it’s worth
For what it’s worth
For what it’s worth
No one cares when you’re out on the street
Picking up the pieces to make ends meet
No one cares when you’re down in the gutter
Got no friends got no lover
No one cares when you’re out on the street
Picking up the pieces to make ends meet
No one cares when you’re down in the gutter
Got no friends got no lover
For what it’s worth
Got no lover
For what it’s worth
Got no lover
For what it’s worth
Got no lover
For what it’s worth
Got no lover
For what it’s worth
Got no lover
For what it’s worth
Got no lover
For what it’s worth
Got no lover
Got no friends got no lover

Keep Talking _ Pink Floyd

For millions of years mankind lived just like animals
Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imagination
We learned to talk

There's a silence surroundiing me
I can't seem to think straight
I'll sit in the corner
No one can bother me
I think I should speak now (why won't you talk to me)
I can't seem to speak now (you never talk to me)
My words won't come out right (what are you thinking)
I feel like I'm drowning (What are you feeling)
I'm feeling weak now (why won't you talk to me)
But I can't show my weakness (you never talk to me
I sometimes wonder (what are you thinking)
Where do we go from here (what are you feeling)

It doesn't have to be like this
All we need to do is make sure we keep talking

Why won't you talk to me (I feel like I'm drowning)
You never talk to me (you know I can't breathe now)
What are you thinking (we're going nowhere)
What are you feeling (we're going nowhere)
Why won't you talk to me
You never talk to me
What are you thinking
Where do we go from here

It doesn't have to be like this
All we need to do is make sure we keep talking

blue eyes


Sometimes I feel so happy,
Sometimes I feel so sad.
Sometimes I feel so happy,
But mostly you just make me mad.
Baby, you just make me mad.

Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

Thought of you as my mountain top,
Thought of you as my peak.
Thought of you as everything,
I've had but couldn't keep.
I've had but couldn't keep.

Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

If I could make the world as pure and strange as what I see,
I'd put you in the mirror,
I put in front of me.

I put in front of me.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

Skip a life completely.
Stuff it in a cup.
She said, Money is like us in time,
It lies, but can't stand up.
Down for you is up."
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

It was good what we did yesterday.
And I'd do it once again.
The fact that you are married,
Only proves, you're my best friend.
But it's truly, truly a sin.

Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

(Pale Blue Eyes, The Velvet Underground)

per jul.. (again)

Sperando ti possa servire..ascoltala se riesci..

The Verve, Lucky Man

Happiness
More or less
It's just a change in me

Something in my liberty
Oh, my, my
Happiness
Coming and going

I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know just where I am

But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn
All the love I have is in my mind?


But I'm a lucky man
With fire in my hands

Happiness
Something in my own place
I'm stood here naked
Smiling, I feel no disgrace
With who I am

Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know just who I am

But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn
All the love I have is in my mind?

I hope you understand
I hope you understand

Gotta love that'll never die


Happiness
More or less
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my

Gotta love that'll never die
Gotta love that'll never die
No, no
I'm a lucky man

It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my

Ne vorrei ancora...

Eddie Vedder - Hard Sun

When I walk beside her
I am the better man
when i look to leave her
I always stagger back again


Once I built an ivory tower
so I could worship from above
when I climb down to be set free
she took me in again


There’s a big
a big hard sun
beating on the big people
in the big hard world

When she comes to greet me
she is mercy at my feet
I see her inner charm
she just throws it back at me

Once I dug an early grave
to find a better land
she just smiled and laughed at me
and took her rules back again

There’s a big
a big hard sun
beating on the big people
in the big hard world

When I go to cross that river
she is comfort by my side
When I try to understand
she just opens up her eyes


There’s a big
a big hard sun
beating on the big people
in the big hard world

Once I stood to lose her
and I saw what i had done

bowed down and threw away the hours
of her garden and her sun

So I tried to want her
I turned to see her weep
40 days and 40 nights
and its still coming down on me

There’s a big
a big hard sun
beating on the big people
in the big hard world

compagni di viaggio

Francesco de Gregori, Compagni di Viaggio

Avevano parlato a lungo di passione e spiritualità.
E avevano toccato il fondo della loro provvisorietà.
Lei disse sta arrivando il giorno,
chiudi la finestra o il mattino ci scoprirà.
E lui sentì crollare il mondo,
sentì che il tempo gli remava contro,
schiacciò la testa sul cuscino,
per non sentire il rumore di fondo della città.
Una tempesta d'estate lascia sabbia e calore.
E pezzi di conversazione nell'aria e ancora voglia d'amore.


Lei chiese la parola d'ordine, il codice d'ingresso al suo dolore.
Lui disse "Non adesso, ne abbiamo già discusso troppo spesso,
aiutami piuttosto a far presto,
il mio volo lo sai partirà tra poco più di due ore.
Sentì suonare il telefono nella stanza gelata
e si svegliò di colpo e capì di averla solo sognata.
Si domandò con chi fosse e pensò "E' acqua passata".
E smise di cercare risposte, sentì che arrivava la tosse,
si alzò per aprire le imposte,
ma fuori la notte sembrava appena iniziata.


Due buoni compagni di viaggio non dovrebbero lasciarsi mai.
Potranno scegliere imbarchi diversi, saranno sempre due marinai.
Lei disse misteriosamente "Sarà sempre tardi per me quando ritornerai".
E lui buttò un soldino nel mare, lei lo guardò galleggiare, si dissero "Ciao!"
per le scale e la luce dell'alba da fuori sembrò evaporare.

niente da capire

è troppo tempo amore che noi giochiamo a scacchi, 
e mi dicono che stai vincendo e ridono da matti.
ma io non lo sapevo che fosse una partita
posso dartela vinta e tenermi la mia vita.

(Francesco de Gregori, Niente da Capire)

Sometimes

Sometimes, Pearl Jam

Large fingers pushing paint
you're God and you've got big hands
the colors blend... the challenges you give me
seek my part... devote myself
my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf
sometimes I know, sometimes I rise
sometimes I fall, sometimes I don't
sometimes I cringe, sometimes I live
sometimes I walk, sometimes I kneel
sometimes I speak of nothing at all
sometimes I reach to myself, dear god

Vinicio Capossela, I vecchi amori

Se ne vanno via
i vecchi amori
vanno via
e ci lasciano soli
quasi che
mai fossero esistiti
eran qui
ma son gia' spariti

E li rivedi
come in un film di ieri
appannati
nel fondo dei bicchieri
quasi quasi ti stupisci
della loro discrezione
e non capisci
se sia stata una finzione

E che ridicolo che e'
incontrare i loro volti
come stai
che stai facendo
ti chiedono ridendo

E allora vivono soltanto
nelle chiacchiere di notte
in quei discorsi
coi tuoi amici piu' delusi
e un nuovo amore
e' l'unico soltanto
che possa far rivivere
quel tuo vecchio cuore infranto

E che ridicolo che e'
incontrare i loro volti
come stai
che stai facendo
ti chiedono ridendo

Easy to be hard

How can people be so heartless
How can people be so cruel
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold

How can people have no feelings
How can they ignore their friends
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no

And especially people
Who care about strangers
Who care about evil
And social injustice
Do you only
Care about the bleeding crowd?
How about a needing friend?
I need a friend

How can people be so heartless
You know I'm hung up on you
Easy to give in
Easy to help out

And especially people
Who care about strangers
Who say they care about social injustice
Do you only
Care about the bleeding crowd
How about a needing friend?
I need a friend

How can people have no feelings
How can they ignore their friends
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no

I could die for you -RHCP

Something inside the cards
I know is right
Don't want to live
Somebody elses life
This is what I want to be
And this is what i give to you
Because I get it free
She smiles while I do my time

I could die for you
Oh this life i choose

Im here to be your only go-between
To tell you of the sights
These eyes have seen
What I really want to do is
Turn it into motion
Beauty that i can't abuse
You know that I'd use my senses to
You can see that
It's only everywhere
I'd take it all and then
I'd find a way to share

Come along and go
Along with me
Wander with me yo
It's all for free

I could die for you
Whatchu want to do
Oh this life I choose

Come again and tell me
Where you want to go
What it means for me
To be with you alone
Close the door and
No one has to know
How we are

Come along and go
Along with me
Wander with me yo
It's all for free

I could die for you
Whatchu want to do
Oh this life I choose

Muse - Unintended

You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You could be the one I'll always love
You could be the one who listens to my deepest inquisitions
You could be the one I'll always love

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before

First there was the one who challenged
All my dreams and all my balance
She could never be as good as you

You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You should be the one I'll always love

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before

Before you

It's a Hard Life - Queen

It's a hard life
To be true lovers together
To love and live forever in each others hearts
It's a long hard fight
To learn to care for each other
To trust in one another right from the start
When you're in love

Too much love will kill you - Queen

I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I'm far away from home
And I've been facing this alone
For much too long
I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In my tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find
Where I went wrong

Too much love will kill you
If you can't make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You're headed for disaster
'cos you never read the signs
Too much love will kill you
Every time
I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there's no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
Now all I ever do is bring you down

How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose
No there's no making sense of it
Every way I go I'm bound to lose
Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It'll drain the power that's in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You're the victim of your crime

Too much love will kill you
Every time
Too much love will kill you
It'll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you won't understand why
You'd give your life, you'd sell your soul
But here it comes again
Too much love will kill you
In the end...
In the end.
