Foo Fighters - The Pretender

Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend
Keep you in the dark
And so it all began

Send in your skeletons
Sing as their bones go marching in again
They need you buried deep
The secrets that you keep are ever ready
Are you ready?

I'm finished making sense
Done pleading ignorance
That whole defense

Spinning infinity, boy
The wheel is spinning me
It's never-ending, never-ending
Same old story

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

In time or so I'm told
I'm just another soul for sale. Oh well
The page is out of print
We are not permanent
We're temporary, temporary
Same old story

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

I'm the voice inside your head
You refuse to hear
I'm the face that you have to face
Mirrored in your stare
I'm what's left, I'm what's right
I'm the enemy
I'm the hand that will take you down
Bring you to your knees

So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?

Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?


What if I say I'm not like the others?
(Keep you in the dark)
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
(You know they all... pretend)
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

What if I say I'm not like the others?
(Keep you in the dark)
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
(You know they all... pretend)
You're the pretender
What if I say I will never surrender?

So who are you?
Yeah, who are you?
Yeah, who are you?

Why can't you understand
How I'm feeling now
Why don't you feel me
Why can't you understand
Please open your hand
When you don't know how to do
You want my life
But you've just said no more
Everything is just my fault

Your heart is following mine
Behind this sacrifice
Can't you see the words
Can't you see the things
But I can go on
Why don't you find another
Why
Everything looks like a crash
When I used to fall
I can't understand you more
And I can't understand you more

And you cry
And your heart don't cry
And you're seated
Why can't you feel, can't you see
What is happening to me
All the thinking time
All the love you gave to me
Give it to me

I can't understand you
Why
Why this happens
Why can't you see I'm selling lies
Sitting at a table why
Why you want my life
Why do you want me
And I can't understand you
I can't understand you
I can't
Why this happening to me
Why this happening
Can't you see now
Can't you see now
Can't you see
I can't understand you
Why
Why this is happening to us

This song is too simple
This song is too simple

The Strokes - Heart in a cage

I don't feel better when I'm f****** around
And I don't write better when I'm stuck in the ground
So don't teach me a lesson 'cause I've already learned
Yeah, the Sun will be shining and my children will burn

The heart beats in its cage

I don't want what you want
I don't feel what you feel
See, I'm stuck in a city
But I belong in a field

Yeah we got left, left, left, left, left, left, left
Now it's three in the morning and you're eating alone

The heart beats in its cage

All our friends they're laughing at us
All of those you loved you mistrust
Help me, I'm just not quite myself
Look around there's no one else left

I went to the concert and I fought through the crowd
Guess I got too excited when I thought you were around

Oh he gets left, left, left, left, left, left, left
I am sorry you were thinking I would steal your fire

Oh the heart beats in its cage
Yes the heart beats in its cage
Alright

The heart beats in its cage

Cristina Branco - Não há só tangos em Paris

Beijei teu retrato, esborratou-se a tinta
Num corpo abstracto que a saudade pinta
E a esquadrinhar teus traços já dei por mim louca
Diz-me lá Picasso onde ele tem a boca

Esse teu retrato vou expô-lo em Paris
Já usado e gasto, ver se alguém me diz
Onde é que te encontro, se não te perdi

Por te ter chorado desfiz o meu rosto
E num triste fado encontrei encosto
Dei-me a outros braços, mas nada que preste
Diz-me lá Picasso que namoro é este

Este meu retrato vou expô-lo em Paris
E assim ao teu lado eu hei-de ser feliz
Se nunca te encontro, nunca te perdi

Sei, não há só tangos em Paris
E nos fados que eu vivi
Só te encontro em estilhaços

Pois bem, tão certa espero por ti
Se com um beijo te desfiz
Com um beijo te refaço

Este meu retrato vou expô-lo em Paris
E assim ao teu lado eu hei-de ser feliz
Se nunca te encontro, nunca te perdi

Sei, não há só tangos em Paris
E nos fados que eu vivi
Só te encontro em estilhaços

Pois bem, tão certa espero por ti
Se com um beijo te desfiz
Com um beijo te refaço

Se com um beijo te desfiz
Com um beijo te refaço

PJ Harvey - Down by the water

I lost my heart
Under the bridge
To that little girl
So much to me
And now I'm old
And now I holler
She'll never know
Just what I found

That blue eyed girl
(that blue eyed girl)
She said "no more"
(she said "no more")
That blue eyed girl
(that blue eyed girl)
Became blue eyed whore
('came blue eyed whore)
Down by the water
(down by the water)
I took her hand
(I took her hand)
Just like my daughter
(just like my daughter)
Won't see her again
(see her again)

Oh help me Jesus
Come through this storm
I had to lose her
To do her harm
I heard her holler
(I heard her holler)
I heard her moan
(I heard her moan)
My lovely daughter
(my lovely daughter)
I took her home
(I took her home)

Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter
Little fish, big fish
Swimming in the water
Come back here, man
Gimme my daughter

Aurea - Busy (for me)

I tried to call you
But you didn´t answer the phone
I tried to pick you up
But you didn´t come along
I tried to talk to you
But you didn’t even answer me
I tried to reach you
But you´re so high up above

Oh baby
I try everyday
I cry every night
For a second of your time
But you´re so busy for me
You don´t care for my plea
So I cry, cry, cry, cry...

Oh...
I tried to tease you
But you didn´t even care
I tried to love you
But your heart closed its doors

Oh baby
I try everyday
I cry every night
For a second of your time
But you´re so busy for me
You don´t care for my plea
So I cry, cry, cry, cry...

I try everyday
I cry every night
For a second of your time
But you´re so busy for me
You don´t care for my plea
So I cry, cry, cry, cry...

So you didn´t come along
You didn´t answer
You didn´t care
You closed your heart for me

Oh...
(I tried to call you... pick up the phone)

You´re so busy...

GNR - Efectivamente

Adoro o campo, as árvores, as flores, jarros e perpétuos amores
Que fiquem perto da esplanada de um bar
Pássaros estúpidos a esvoaçar

Adoro as pulgas dos cães
Todos os bichos do mato
O riso das crianças dos outros
Cágados de pernas para o ar

Efectivamente
Escuto as conversas
Importantes ou ambíguas
Aparentemente sem moralizar

Adoro as pêgas e os pederastas que passam
Finjo nem reparar
Na atitude tão clara e tão óbvia de quem anda a engatar

Adoro esses ratos de esgoto
Que disfarçam ao dealar
Como se fossem mafiosos convictos habituados a controlar

Efectivamente
Gosto de aparências
Imponentes ou equívocas
Aparentemente sem moralizar

Efectivamente
Gosto de aparências
Aparentemente sem moralizar

Aparentemente
Escuto as conversas
Efectivamente sem moralizar

Efectivamente
Sem moralizar

Pearl Jam - Black

Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything?
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can, drop away
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...
All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I will be...yeah...

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky, but why, why, why
Can't it be, can't it be mine

David Fonseca - Someone that cannot love

You locked your heart
You wake up with tears and stars in your eyes
You gave it all to someone that
Cannot love you back

Your days are packed
With wishes and hopes for the love that you've got
You waste it all to someone that
Cannot love you back

Someone that cannot love

Love, ain't this enough?
You push yourself down
You try to take comfort in words
But words
They cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more

You secretly made
Castles of sand that you hide in the shade
But you cannot own the tides that break them
And you build them all over again

You talk all these words
You make conversations that cannot be heard
How long until you notice that
No one is answering back

Someone that cannot love

Love, ain't this enough?
You push yourself down
You try to take comfort in words
But words
They cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more

Love, love, ain't this enough?
You’re pushing around
You try to take comfort in words
But words
Well, they cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more

Someone that cannot love
Someone that cannot love
Someone that cannot love

Love, ain't this enough?
You push yourself down
You try to take comfort in words
But words
They cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more

Love, love, ain't this enough?
You're pushing around
To find little comfort in words
But words
Well, they cannot love
Don't waste them like that
Cus they'll bruise you more

You know they'll bruise you more
Words they will hurt you more
Words they will hurt you more

Yes, they’ll hurt you

Someone that cannot love
Someone that cannot love
