The Sound of Silence

The Sound of Silence - Simon & Garfunkel

Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.

"Fools" said I, "You do not know"
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you."
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls."
And whisper'd in the sounds of silence.

Hey Soul Sister - Train


Hey, hey, hey


Your lipstick stains on the front lobe of my left side brains
I knew I wouldn't forget you, and so I went and let you blow my mind
Your sweet moon beam, the smell of you in every single dream I dream
I knew when we collided, you're the one I have decided who's one of my kind


Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight
Hey, hey,hey


Just in time, I'm so glad you have a one-track mind like me
You gave my life direction, a game show love connection we can't deny
I'm so obsessed, my heart is bound to beat right out my untrimmed chest
I believe in you, like a virgin, you're Madonna, and I'm always gonna wanna blow your mind


Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight


The way you can cut a rug, watching you's the only drug I need
You're so gangsta, I'm so thug, you're the only one I'm dreaming of
You see, I can be myself now finally, in fact there's nothing I can't be
I want the world to see you be with me


Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do tonight,
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight
Hey, hey,hey


Tonight


Hey, hey,hey


Tonight

Bulletproof - La Roux

Been there, done that, messed around
I’m having fun don’t put me down,
I’ll never let you sweep me off my feet,
I won’t let you in again, the messages I’ve tried to send,
my informations’ just not going in,
burnin’ bridges shore to shore, I’ll break away from something more,
I’m not to not to love until it’s cheap,
been there, done that, messed around,
I’m having fun don’t put me down,
I’ll never let you sweep me off my feet,

This time baby,
I’ll be,
Bulletproof

I won’t let you turn around,
and tell me now I’m much too proud,
to walk away from something when it’s dead,
do do do your dirty words come out to play when you are heard,
there’s certain things that should be left unsaid,
tick tick tick tick on the watch and life’s too short for me to stop,
Oh baby, your time is running out,
I won’t let you turn around,
and tell me now I’m much too proud,
All you do is fill me up with doubt,


This time baby I’ll be bulletproof
This time I'll be bulletproof
This time maybe I’ll be bulletproof
This time baby I’ll be bulletproof

Música nova para geopedrados

I was walking, was living
My melody was acapella
There’s a beat I was missing
No tune, or a scale, I could play




The sound in the distance
No orchestra playing together
Like a boat out to sea,
The silence was too deafening




So come and revive me
I can’t feel my heartbeat
Just me surviving alone




Before you,
My whole life was acapella
Now a symphony’s
The only song to sing
Before you,
My whole life was acapella
Now a symphony’s
The only song to sing




Everything was the same
One color was just like the others
An assembly routine
My memories were all black and white
Till I stopped overthinking
Decided to draw back the curtains
And I cleared all the cobwebs
And began to let in the light




So come and revive me
I can’t feel my heartbeat
Just me surviving alone




Before you,
My whole life was acapella
Now a symphony’s
The only song to sing
Before you,
My whole life was acapella
Now a symphony’s
The only song to sing




You are the drum in my heart beat
Bass and guitar lead
Stuck on the notes you play
My heart that you play on
Red like a crayon
I can’t walk away




Before you,
My whole life was acapella
Now a symphony’s
The only song to sing
Before you,
My whole life was acapella
Now a symphony’s
The only song to sing

fool's gold


YOU TOLD ME THAT YOU'D STAY WITH ME
AND SHELTER ME FOREVER
THAT WAS A HARD PROMISE TO KEEP
I CAN'T BLAME YOU FOR THE BAD WEATHER


AFTER ALL THAT HAS BEEN SAID AND DONE
I WON'T ASK YOU WHERE YOU'RE GOING
DON'T KEEP IN TOUCH, I DON'T MISS YOU MUCH
EXCEPT SOMETIMES EARLY IN THE MORNING


NOW USE YOUR SILVER TONGUE ONCE MORE
THERE'S ONE THING THAT I'D LIKE TO KNOW
DID YOU EVER BELIEVE THE LIES THAT YOU TOLD
DID YOU EARN THE FOOL'S GOLD THAT YOU GAVE ME


I FORGIVE YOU WANTING TO BE FREE
I REALIZE YOU LONG TO WANDER
AND I SYMPATHIZE WITH YOUR ROVING EYES
I JUST CAN'T FORGIVE YOUR BAD MANNERS


NOW USE YOUR SILVER TONGUE ONCE MORE
THERE'S ONE THING THAT I'D LIKE TO KNOW
DID YOU EVER BELIEVE THE LIES THAT YOU TOLD
DID YOU EARN THE FOOL'S GOLD THAT YOU GAVE ME

Música para uma nossa leitora fiel

I got caught in a storm
And carried away
I got turned, turned around

I got caught in a storm
That's what happened to me
So I didn't call
And you didn't see me for a while

I was rising up
Hitting the ground
And breaking and breaking

I was caught in a storm
Things were flying around
And doors were slamming
And windows were breaking
And I couldn't hear what you were saying
I couldn't hear what you were saying
I couldn't hear what you were saying

I was rising up
Hitting the ground
And breaking and breaking

Rising up
Rising up

Música para um certo estado de espírito

B Fachada - O Desamor

Fomos à Escócia e voltámos, loucos por ficar a sós
fomos mas nunca chegámos, a sair do meio de nós
Mas a Escócia que gostámos, Capadócia que cavámos
Não nos deu o que esperámos quando pensámos ser avós.

Fomos à Escócia e deixámos, três amores cada um
E o que da Escócia tirámos, foi 'tar sem amor nenhum
Ir e vir foi um regalo, o desamor sem forçá-lo
Mas se tão longe o buscámos, é que já tinha havido algum

Não me leves tu a mal
Não me tentes convencer
que o que havia em Portugal não chegava para saber
Dei-te um mês da minha vida e um mês é de valor
e tu podes ser bastante querida mas não é preciso dor
para provar o desamor

Por desamarmos deixámos, seis amores sem ter dó
e agora que regressámos, não sei se nos sobram só
É que havia certa esperança que podia ser só dança
Mas afinal a bonança era apenas beijo em pó

Não me leves tu a mal
Não me tentes convencer
que o que havia em Portugal não chegava para saber
Dei-te um mês da minha vida e um mês é de valor
e tu podes ser bastante querida mas não é preciso dor
para provar o desamor

The Gossip - Heavy Cross

It's a cruel cruel world, to face on your own,
A heavy cross, to carry along,
The lights are on, but everyone's gone,
And it's cruel

It's a funny way, to make ends meet,
when the lights are out on every street,
It feels alright, but never complete,
without joy,

I checked you, if it's already been done, undo it,
It takes two, it's up to me and you, to proove it,
On the rainy nights, even the coldest days,
you're moments ago, but seconds away,
The principal of nature, it's true but, it's a cruel world,

We can play it safe, or play it cool,
follow the leader, or make up all the rules,
whatever you want, the choice is yours,
So choose,

I checked you, if it's already been done, undo it
It takes two, it's up to me and you, to proove it

I just knew, it's already been done, undo it
It takes two, it's up to me and you, to proove it

I checked you, if it's already been done, undo it
It takes two, it's up to me and you, to proove it

I just knew

Owl City - Fireflies

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep

'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems

'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance

A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

Leave my door open just a crack
(Please take me away from here)
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
(Please take me away from here)
Why do I tire of counting sheep
(Please take me away from here)
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep

To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell

But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams

Just enjoy the show...
