Porque os meus dias necessitam de uma banda-sonora que faça suportar algumas das angústias que os atravessam. Ou simplesmente porque o meu dia foi um daqueles dias que irei recordar mais tarde, e me lembrarei da música que estava a passar naquele infímo momento de felicidade inocente.

Horse And I
Got woken in the night, by a mystic golden light. My head soaked in river water. I had been dressed in a coat of armor. They called a horse out of the woodland. "Take her there, through the desert shores." They sang to me, "This is yours to wear. You're the chosen one, there's no turning back now."
The smell of redwood giants. The banquet for the shadows. Horse and I, we're dancers in the dark. Came upon the headdress. It was gilded, dark and golden. The children sang. I was so afraid I took it to my head and prayed. They sang to me, "This is yours to wear. You're the chosen one, there's no turning back." They sang to me, "This is yours to wear. You're the chosen one, there's no turning back."
There is no turning back. There is no turn. There is no turning back. There is no turn. There is no turning back. There is no turn
Yeah I got busted so I used my one phone call to dedicate a song to you on the radio
Yeah I got busted in custody I imagined our melody being played on a grand piano
I saw your face in front of me it was perfect clarity I saw a light in the end of the tunnel
And it was you 'cause you are the light by which I travel into this and that you are the light you are the light by which I travel into this and that
Yeah I got busted I painted a dirty word on your old man's Mercedes Benz 'cause you told me to do it
Yeah I got busted but soon they released me cause the cops were sad and they didn't know how to prove it
I saw your face in front of me it was perfect clarity I saw a light in the end of the tunnel
And it was you 'cause you are the light by which I travel into this and that you are the light you are the light by which I travel into this and that
It's all so obvious, so obvious why would anyone need a map or a compass It's so beautiful to be guided by you
'Cause you are the light you are the light by which I travel into this and that You are the light you are the light by which I travel into this and that
Somewhere Down Past Roosterspur Bridge Perhaps Just A Trick Of The Light I Thought I Heard The Sweetest Guitar Was It A Rock And Roll Jesus
Sometimes I Think I Think I Understand The Fear In The Boy The Fire In The Man Sometimes I Watch The Wonder In Your Eyes That And You Leaving I Have Memorized That And You Leaving I Have Memorized
Drove All Night Through Sliding Rock Falls Thinking I'd Find Something That We'd Lost Can't Remember When You Stopped Laughing Or When I Stopped Wanting To Win
Sometimes I Think I Think I Understand The Fear In The Boy The Fire In The Man Sometimes I Watch The Wonder In Your Eyes That And You Leaving
I Have Memorized Do You Even See Me Now Do You Think Of Us Still Do I Always Read Things In Before A Day's Deliverance On Roosterspur Bridge
Sometimes I Think I Think I Understand The Fear In The Boy The Fire In The Man Sometimes I Watch The Wonder In Your Eyes That And You Leaving I Have Memorized That And You Leaving That And You Leaving I Have Memorized
Numa noite em que o céu tinha um brilho mais forte E em que o sono parecia disposto a não vir Fui estender-me na praia, sózinho, ao relento E ali longe do tempo, acabei por dormir
Acordei com o toque suave de um beijo E uma cara sardenta encheu-me o olhar Ainda meio a sonhar perguntei-lhe quem era Ela riu-se e disse baixinho: estrela do mar
"Sou a estrela do mar só a ele obedeço Só ele me conhece, só ele sabe quem sou No princípio e no fim Só a ele sou fiel e é ele quem me protege Quando alguém quer à força Ser dono de mim..."
Não sei se era maior o desejo ou o espanto Só sei que por instantes deixei de pensar Uma chama invisível incendiou-me o peito Qualquer coisa impossível fez-me acreditar
Em silêncio trocámos segredos e abraços Inscrevemos no espaço um novo alfabeto Já passaram mil anos sobre o nosso encontro Mas mil anos são pouco ou nada para a estrela do mar
"Estrela do mar Só a ele obedeço Só ele me conhece, só ele sabe quem sou No princípio e no fim Só a ele sou fiel e é ele quem me protege Quando alguém quer à força Ser dono de mim..."
Hold me In your arms May they keep me Sing me A lullaby Cause I'm sleepy I'm scared you don't need me anymore
Bring me To the light Of the morning Take me Through this night Til the dawning For I see a warning in your eyes
Don't need no valentines, no, no Don't need no roses Cause it just takes me back in time, no, no Now you're not here
Hold me Just tonight Sleep will tend me Save me From lonely hours There's so many And I won't get any sleep tonight
Don't need no valentines, no, no Don't need no roses Cause it just takes me back in time, no, no Now you're not here Anymore Not anymore
Don't need no valentines, no, no Don't need no roses Cause it just takes me back in time, no, no When you left me lonely And I won't drink no aged wine, no, no Now you're not here Anymore Not anymore Not anymore Not anymore
Mr. Muscle forcing bursting Stingy thingy into little me, me, me But just "ripple" said the cripple As my jaw dropped to the ground Smile smile
It's true I always wanted love to be Hurtful And it's true I always wanted love to be Filled with pain And bruises
Yes, so Cripple-Pig was happy Screamed " I just completely love you! And there's no rhyme or reason I'm changing like the seasons Watch! I'll even cut off my finger It will grow back like a Starfish! It will grow back like a Starfish! It will grow back like a Starfish!"
Mr. Muscle, gazing boredly And he checking time did punch me And I sighed and bleeded like a windfall Happy bleedy, happy bruisy
I am very happy So please hit me I am very happy So please hurt me
I am very happy So please hit me I am very very happy So come on hurt me
I'll grow back like a Starfish I'll grow back like a Starfish I'll grow back like a Starfish I'll grow back like a Starfish
I'll grow back like a Starfish I'll grow back like a Starfish I'll grow back like a Starfish I'll grow back like a Starfish Like a Starfish...
a desert sunrise, you warm my soul painting me in shades of clay covering me whole and I'm a lizard, sunbathing in your radiance Oh, I come out of hiding, so sweet so sweet you are if I could only have a taste wrap my lips around your flavor just because you are you just because you are, so beautiful
and I've been waiting all this life in the company of one and I know I am young but I don't want to be alone if you could only just consider the two of us and I know darling I could be so good to you
I see you rising on the horizon bringing light into the day and I'm coasting on your rays when I awoke, you spoke through the mist of the mystic bliss casting shadows on all my dismal yesterdays do you remember that you told me, darling that I was so real I tell you all my tears for you are real and we'll cross that bridge again some day I know we will I hope we will
desert sunset, a lullaby if I could give it all to you if you'd only let me try sing so sweetly, it's my only wish music drips from your lips like sweet sips of a summer's kiss summer raindrops are precious, tongues twist
and I’ve been waiting all this life in the company of one and I know I am young but I don’t want to be alone if you could only just consider the two of us I know darling I could be so good to you
I see you rising, on the horizon bringing light into the day and I’m coasting on your rays when I awoke and you spoke through the mist of a mystic bliss casting shadows on all my dismal yesterdays do you remember that you told me, darling that I was so real I tell you all my tears for you are real we’ll cross that bridge again some day I know we will I hope we will
desert moonrise, into the night before we lay our heads I wish to walk under the splendorous starlight sing so sweetly, it’s the sweetest sound and I’ve become weak in the knees and I drop down and kiss the ground and all my cares lie far below in this earth I wish to die in this hearth my fire grows
Sometimes I wonder who am I the world seeming to pass me by A younger man now getting old I have to wonder what the rest of life will hold
I hold a mirror to my face there are some lines that I could trace To memories of loving you the passion that breaks reason in two
I have to think and stop me now if reminisces make you frown One thinks of what one hoped to be and then faces reality
Sometimes I wonder who am I who made the trees, who made the sky Who made the storms, who made heartbreak I wonder how much life I can take
I know I like to dream a lot and think of other worlds that are not I hate that I need air to breathe I'd like to leave this body and be free
I'd like to float like a mystic child I'd like to kiss an angel on the brow I'd love to solve the mysteries of life by cutting someone's throat or removing their heart
You'd like to see it beat you'd like to hold your eyes And though you know I'm dead you'd like to hold my thighs
If it's wrong to think on this to hold the dead past in your fist Why were we given memories let us lose our minds and be set free
Some-, sometimes I, I wonder who am I the world seeming to pass me by A younger man now getting old I have to wonder what the rest of life will hold
I wonder I wonder -
- Ooohhh, who started all this was God in love and gave a kiss To someone who later betrayed and Godless love sent us away
To someone who later betrayed and Godless love sent us away
Be still now I am with you, I am deep within you; You are at peace. You cannot be harmed; You will not suffer. Breathe deeply, Breathe in the healing love of the universe, And breathe out the sickness which has taken you. I am with you.
It's easy it's like breathing, it's like a heartbeat, it's easy Have not betrayed your ideals Your ideals betrayed you What are you going to do?
Your eyes will not close Your tongue barely speaks But I can still feel you
I can still feel you So come, come relax, Grin, let the changes in Come on, come relax Grin, Let the laughter, let the laughter Let the laughter begin
Relax, grin, let the changes in.
Time is done The sun has gone It's too late Eternity has come.
