Life is Simples in the Moonlight

Animals on TV singing about something that they once felt
There's no one I disapprove of more or root for more than myself
I wanted to pretend that it was better, better, better on the phone
I didn't wanna tell you I was jealous, jealous, jealous and alone

So we talk about ourselves and how
To forget the love we never felt
Oh, we owed jokes that work so well
You never were so sure, was the moment

Don't try to stop us
Don't try to stop us
Don't try to stop us
Get out of the way

Got to get to climb your tree in the light of the living ghost I see
She sees her father in the old man's eyes while secretly he stares at her thighs
Animals on TV singing about something they felt at some point
I didn't wanna tell you I was jealous, jealous, jealous.. what's the point?

As I watched the bell with drapes appear
And the door was closed for 40 years
'cause we hide what we don't wanna hear
As we hide our dreams, near here.

He is coming from a part of hell
Where like Nanbu I don't go down well
He can't tell that when oblivion
It's a ditch strung out, routine as well

Making fools out of the best of us
Making robots of the rest of us
In that sense I tell in America today
There's a crack, just like going out westward

Don't try to stop us
Don't try to stop us
Don't try to stop me
Get out of the way.

Below The Hurricane

Hey babe, don't you know it's all the same
Hey babe, don't you know it's all the same
Heaven's right below the hurricane
Heaven's right below yeah

Touching down, I see the lights
Taxi drive through rainy nights
Finger ride on window pane
That heaven's in a hurricane

Hey babe, don't you know it's all the same
Heaven's right below the hurricane
and Hell's contained in every single flame
but Heaven's right below yeah

Driving up through trees so bare
I know you're here but I don't know where
World is wide and waiting there
Stop to rest at rivers edge
Your cigarette is burning red
And if hell's in every single flame
Then Heaven's in a hurricane

She said I think I'm still asleep at the wheel
you can say anything you want
I sense your eyes conceal the things that you steal
from the man who has let you down

She said I toss and I turn
in dreams I discern
setting shapes coming through the trees
I said your eyes may believe
but the heart will deceive
let us run while we're young and free

Oh My Heart


the kids have a new take
a new take on faith
pick up the pieces
get carried away
i came home to city half erased
i came home to face what we faced

this place needs me here to start
this place is the beat of my heart

oh my heart
oh my heart
(oh my heart)
oh my heart
oh my heart
(oh my heart)

storm didn't kill me
the government changed
hear the answer call
hear the song rearranged
hear the tress, the ghosts and the buildings sing
with the wisdom to reconcile this thing

it's sweet and it's sad and it's true
how it doesn't look bitter on you

oh my heart
oh my heart
(oh my heart)
oh my heart
oh my heart
(oh my heart)

Mother and father
I stand beside you
the good of this world
might help see me through

this place needs me here to start
this place is the beat of my heart

oh my heart
oh my heart
(oh my heart)
oh my heart
oh my heart
(oh my heart)

(R.E.M.)

I Know Places

I know places we can go, babe.
I know places we can go, babe.
The high won't fade here, babe.
No, the high won't hurt here, babe.

I know places we can go, babe.
I know places we can go, babe.
Where the highs won't bring you down, babe.
No, The highs won't hurt you there, babe.

Don't ask me when, but ask me why.
Don't ask me how, but ask me where.
There is a road. There is a way.
There is a place. There is a place.

I know places we can go, babe
Coming home. Come unfold, babe.
And, the high won't fade here, babe.
No, the high won't hurt here, babe.

So,
Come lay... And wait...
Now won't you lay... and wait... Wait on me.

I know places we can go, babe.
Coming home. Come unfold, babe.
I know places we can go, babe.
Coming home. Come unfold, babe.

À Noite em Creta

Tantas cidades envelhecem neste tempo
Arqueologia da verdade de um momento
Avenidas gastas, sobrepostas, tanto som
Sirenes e motores repetem o teu nome
Cimento e sofrimento, outra cidade morta
Que ressuscita e que renasce à tua porta
Gruas e silêncio, contentores, tanto medo
Olhares negros que armazenam um segredo

Estava perdido e ainda estou
Estava esquecido de quem eu sou

Quero mapas para te ver
Um caminho para te encontrar
Só há mapas para perder
Mapas para nenhum lugar

Estava perdido e ainda estou
Estava esquecido de quem eu sou

Onde estiveres, serás esta cidade
De pedra e aço, pedra e ansiedade

Estava perdido e ainda estou
Estava esquecido de quem eu sou

The Rising

Can't see nothin' in front of me
Can't see nothin' coming up behind
I make my way through this darkness
I can't feel nothing but this chain that binds me
Lost track of how far I've gone
How far I've gone, how high I've climbed
On my back's a sixty pound stone
On my shoulder a half mile line

Come on up for the rising
Com on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight

Left the house this morning
Bells ringing filled the air
Wearin' the cross of my calling
On wheels of fire I come rollin' down here

Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight

Spirits above and behind me
Faces gone, black eyes burnin' bright
May their precious blood forever bind me
Lord as I stand before your fiery light

I see you Mary in the garden
In the garden of a thousand sighs
There's holy pictures of our children
Dancin' in a sky filled with light
May I feel your arms around me
May I feel your blood mix with mine
A dream of life comes to me
Like a catfish dancin' on the end of the line

Sky of blackness and sorrow ( a dream of life)
Sky of love, sky of tears (a dream of life)
Sky of glory and sadness ( a dream of life)
Sky of mercy, sky of fear ( a dream of life)
Sky of memory and shadow ( a dream of life)
Your burnin' wind fills my arms tonight
Sky of longing and emptiness (a dream of life)
Sky of fullness, sky of blessed life ( a dream of life)

Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight

(Bruce Springsteen)
