where nerves were.

"siege of abuse, it never works, it always hurts. (...)
grounded by the weight of your words.
no sleep. no stillness.
where nerves were, now nothing."

I could escape this feeling with my China Girl




I feel a wreck without my little China Girl



I hear her heart beating loud as thunder



Saw the stars crashing



I'm a mess without my little China Girl



Wake up in the morning, where's my little China Girl



I hear her heart's beating loud as thunder



Saw the stars crashing down



I feel a-tragic like I'm Marlon Brando



When I look at my China Girl



I could pretend that nothing really meant too much



When I look at my China Girl



I stumble into town just like a sacred cow



Visions of swastikas in my head



Plans for everyone



It's in the white of my eyes



My little China Girl



You shouldn't mess with me



I'll ruin everything you are



You know;



I'll give you television



I'll give you eyes of blue



I'll give you men who want to rule the world



And when I get excited



My little China Girl says



Oh baby just you shut your mouth
She says ... sh-sh-shhh

coal to diamonds.


I think I feel a little hurt.
My fists are turning coal to diamonds.
Why no one told me so much work
Would all go into tryin'?
Oh, but those feelings ain't the same.
How some things never change.
Well, nobody's perfect.
And I knew better
Anyway

I thought about it 'til my head hurt.
I thought about it but it only made things worse.
I thought about it 'til my head hurt.
I thought about it but it only made things worse.

So I was wrong.
What could I do?
I knew all along.

Ooh..

I think I feel a little hurt.
My fists are turning coal to diamonds.
Why no one told me so much work
Would all go into tryin'?
Oh, but those feelings ain't this strange.
How some things never change.
Well, nobody's perfect.
And I knew better
Anyway.

I thought about it 'til my head hurt.
I thought about it but it only made things worse.
I thought about it 'til my head hurt.
I thought about it but it only made things worse.

So I was wrong.
What could I do?
I knew all along.

I'm a fool for you..

Continua a fazer-me uma certa confusão este estado de dormência - ora magoa até aos ossos, ora se torna em algo normal - face às sucessivas ausências na minha vida. Com o passar dos anos penso que me fui habituando...as ausências foram sempre muitas.

"Somos dois piratas nos mares do sul, navegamos por dentro um do outro, amanhã partirei para outro mar, amanhã estarás em outra ilha, não é possível tanto azul, tanta tensão, tanta pressão dentro de nós. O fio vai partir-se, (...), os que se amam vão morrer, tu própria o dizes, pela primeira vez o dizes: Não quero morrer de ti."

Mrs. Dalloway.




"All the same, that one day should follow another; Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday; that one should wake up in the morning; see the sky; walk in the park…then these roses; it was enough. After that, how unbelievable death was! — that it must end; and no one in the whole world would know how she had loved it all."




— Mrs. Dalloway (1925), Virginia Woolf

Song to say goodbye.

"You are one of God's mistakes,
You crying, tragic waste of skin,
I'm well aware of how it aches,
And you still won't let me in.
Now I'm breaking down your door,
To try and save your swollen face,
Though I don't like you anymore,
You lying, trying waste of space..Before our innocence was lost,
You were always one of those,
Blessed with lucky sevens,
And the voice that made me cry.
My Oh My.You were mother nature's son,
Someone to whom I could relate,
Your needle and your damage done,
Remains a sordid twist of fate.
Now I'm trying to wake you up,
To pull you from the liquid sky,
Coz if I don't we'll both end up,
With just your song to say goodbye.
My Oh My.
A song to say goodbye,
A song to say goodbye,
A song to say...Before our innocence was lost,
You were always one of those,
Blessed with lucky sevens,
And the voice that made me cry.
It's a song to say goodbye."

Placebo.

"Sketches For My Sweetheart The Drunk".

"Paranoia will write the world prayer
Make sure that you fit in the right holes
But when you take his offer,
you're done for Done for, done for, oooh....
Phantoms in pockets, we're in panic
Making order in total disgust
Oh, they read a list of all who cannot stay
Take you down, on the ground (...)"


all by Jeff "sweetheart the drunk" Buckley.

Sempre gostei de coisas simples.

Depois da hora de ponta, depois da agitação das horas e da desordem dos dias vamos para a beira-mar.
O sol de inverno começa hoje.
Deseja-se Mar e Porto.

E hoje i had plans, na bela e negra cidade do Porto.


(com suspiro e sorriso)

27.

Não sei bem porquê, mas talvez pela (já) nostalgia dos meus 27 anos, lembrei-me do James Dean (e de tantos outros que escolheram morrer jovens. A propósito: será Heath Ledger o segundo óscar post-mortem?)

Milk.

Gay Rights Activist. Friend. Lover. Unifier. Politician. Fighter. Icon. Inspiration. Hero. His life changed history, and his courage changed lives. In 1977, Harvey Milk was elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, becoming the first openly gay man to be voted into major public office in America.

Never blend in.

Help!
I need somebody, Help!
Not just anybody,
Help! You know I need someone,
Help!
When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way,
But now these days are gone and I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind I've opened up the doors.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down,
And I do appreciate you being around,
Help me get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please please help me?
And now my life has changed in oh so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze,
But ev'ry now and then I feel so insecure,
I know that I just need you like I've never done before.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down,
And I do appreciate you being around,
Help me get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please please help me?
When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way,
But now these days are gone and I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind I've opened up the doors.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down,
And I do appreciate you being around,
Help me get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please please help me?
Help me. Help me. Ooh, ooh, ooh!

yes, it is still raining outside.

27 anos. quase 28. no coração ainda trago a esperança de outros anos, mas os olhos já não a mostram. as mudanças de humor não me deixam mentir.
