actoúnico

to the ones that know enough to (stop knowing and) laugh their faces off

lyrics

When the routine bites hard
And ambitions are low
And the resentment rides high
But emotions won’t grow
And we’re changing our ways,
Taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again

Why is the bedroom so cold
Turned away on your side?
Is my timing that flawed,
Our respect run so dry?
Yet there’s still this appeal
That we’ve kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again

Do you cry out in your sleep
All my failings exposed?
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Is it something so good
Just can’t function no more?
When love, love will tear us apart again

Não quero medir a altura do tombo
Nem passar agosto esperando setembro
Se bem me lembro
O melhor futuro, este hoje escuro
O maior desejo da boca é o beijo
Eu não quero ter o tédio me escorrendo das mãos
Quero a Guanabara, quero o rio Nilo,
Quero tudo ter estrela, flor, estilo
Tua língua em meu mamilo, água e sal

Nada tenho, vez em quando tudo
Tudo quero mais ou menos quando
Vida, vida noves fora zero
Quero viver, quero ouvir, quero ver

de Zeca Baleiro (ouvir)

Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It’s the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you
It’s the wrong time
She’s pulling me through
It’s a small crime
And I’ve got no excuse
Is that alright with you?
Give my gun away
Is that alright? Yeah.
when it’s loaded

Damien Rice (listen)

You are my sister, we were born
So innocent, so full of need
There were times we were friends but times I was so cruel
Each night I’d ask for you to watch me as I sleep
I was so afraid of the night
You seemed to move through the places that I feared
You lived inside my world so softly
Protected only by the kindness of your nature
You are my sister
And I love you
May all of your dreams come true
We felt so differently then
So similar over the years
The way we laugh the way we experience pain
So many memories
But theres nothing left to gain from remembering
Faces and worlds that no one else will ever know
You are my sister
And I love you
May all of your dreams come true
I want this for you
They’re gonna come true (gonna come true)

Anthony and the Johnsons (listen)

Hope there’s someone
Who’ll set my heart free
Nice to hold when I’m tired
There’s a ghost on the horizon
When I go to bed
How can I fall asleep at night
How will I rest my head
Oh I’m scared of the middle place
Between light and nowhere
I don’t want to be the one
Left in there, left in there
There’s a man on the horizon
Wish that I’d go to bed
If I fall to his feet tonight
Will allow rest my head

Anthony and the Johnsons (listen)

What you did to me made me
See myself something different
Though I try to talk sense to myself
But I just won’t listen
Won’t you go away
Turned yourself in
You’re no good at confession
Before the image that you burned me in
Tries to teach you a lesson
What you did to me made me see myself somethin’ awful
A voice once stentorian is now again meek and muffled
It took me such a long time to get back up the first time you did it
I spent all I had to get it back, and now it seems I’ve been outbidded
My peace and quiet was stolen from me
When I was looking with calm affection
You were searching out my imperfections
What wasted unconditional love

[..]

Oh, well
