A verdade apanha-se com enganos - A naifa

sonhei aos vinte anos durante três avé-marias
que eu tinha-me roubado a minha vida
depois de treler o monte dos vendavais
decidi ir contra a futilidade do romance

fui apanhado aos vinte e dois anos
em plena capicua inocente e rua
em amantíssima posse viral

a verdade apanha-se com enganos

aos vinte e três outonos apaixonei-me doze vezes
e nem sempre pelas mesmas almas
mas sobrevivi a um coração míope

Playground Love - Air

I'm a high school lover, and you're my favorite flavor
Love is all, all my soul
You're my playground love

Yet my hands are shaking
I feel my body reeling
Time's no matter, I'm on fire
On the playground love

You're the piece of gold
That flashes on my soul
Extra time, on the ground
You're my playground love

Anytime, anywhere,
You're my playground love.

Realidade

Em ti o meu olhar fez-se alvorada,
E a minha voz fez-se gorjeio de ninho,
E a minha rubra boca apaixonada
Teve a frescura pálida do linho.

Embriagou-me o teu beijo como um vinho
Fulvo de Espanha, em taça cinzelada,
E a minha cabeleira desatada
Pôs a teus pés a sombra dum caminho.

Minhas pálpebras são cor de verbena,
Eu tenho os olhos garços, sou morena,
E para te encontrar foi que eu nasci...

Tens sido vida fora o meu desejo,
E agora, que te falo, que te vejo,
Não sei se te encontrei, se te perdi...

Neon

A vial of hope and a vial of pain
In the light they both looked the same
Poured them out on into the world
On every boy and every girl

It's in the Neon Bible, the Neon Bible
Not much chance for survival
If the Neon Bible is right

Take the poison of your age
Don't lick your fingers when you turn the page
What I know is what you know is right
In the city it's the only light
It's the Neon Bible, the Neon Bible
Not much chance for survival
If the Neon Bible is right

Oh God! Well look at you now!
Oh! You lost it, but you don't know how!
In the light of a golden calf
Oh God! I had to laugh!

Take the poison of your age
Don't lick your fingers when you turn the page
It was wrong but you said it was right
In the future I will read at night

It's the Neon Bible, the Neon Bible
Not much chance for survival
If the Neon Bible is true

"Triumph Of A Heart"

The nerves are sending shimmering signals
All through my fingers
The veins support
Blood that gushes impulsively towards
Is the triumph of a heart that gives all
That gives all
The triumph of a heart that gives all
That gives all
The stubborn trunks of these legs of mine
Serve as pathways for my favourite fuel
Heading upwards towards my kidneys
(That celebrate)
The triumph of a heart that gives all

Smooth soft red velvety lungs
Are pushing a network of oxygen joyfully
Through a nose, through a mouth
But all enjoys, which brings us to
The triumph of a heart that gives all
That gives all

Bjork, Who is it?

His embrace, a fortress
It fuels me
And places
A skeleton of trust
Right beneath us
Bone by bone
Stone by stone
If you ask yourself patiently and carefully:
Who is it ?
Who is it that never lets you down ?
Who is it that gave you back your crown ?
And the ornaments are going around
Now they're handing it over
Handing it over

He demands a closeness
We all have earned a lightness
Carry my joy on the left
Carry my pain on the right

If you ask yourself patiently and carefully:
Who is it ?
Who is it that never lets you down ?
Who is it that gave you back your crown ?
And the ornaments are going around
Now they're handing it over
Handing it over

Have you hever...?

Have you ever wandered lonely through the woods?
And everything there feels just as it should
You're part of the life there
You're part of something good
If you've ever wandered lonely through the woods.

Have you ever wandered lonely through the woods?

Have you ever stared into a starry sky?
Lying on your back you're asking why
What's the purpose I wonder who am I
If you've ever stared into a starry sky.

Have you ever stared into a starry sky?

Have you ever been out walking in the snow?
Tried to get back to where you were before
You always end up not knowing where to go
If you've ever been out walking in the snow.

If you'd ever been out walking you would know!
