Paradise

2 voices

I'm singing these songs to you, and making you smile at my silliness
There's this lovely energy, that even when I wanna hide it, gets through the air

I try not to touch your hands, but they seem to come near me
and as I move away, you notice this need of one kind aproach
just an instant touch, one short encounter...

You laugh at this performance, and I think of ways to make it stop
but maybe the boose won't let me 
I can't stop doing what I wanna do
being who I wanna be

You seem to enjoy it, because maybe you know it wont last
Soon enough the song will be over, and I'll stop singing
remembering what I must accomplish
and the feeling I should be hiding

And before we know it, this other song begins
One that, instead of taking us back to that dream
makes me crash with reality as I sit and realize I already know how everything will end.

Lyrics by Coldplay
When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
So she ran away in her sleep
Dreamed of para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Every time she closed her eyes
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh

When she was just a girl
She expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
And the bullets catch in her teeth

Life goes on
It gets so heavy
The wheel breaks the butterfly
Every tear, a waterfall
In the night, the stormy night
She closed her eyes
In the night, the stormy night
Away she'd fly.

And dreamed of para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh

She dreamed of para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

La la la La
La la la

So lying underneath those stormy skies.
She said oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
I know the sun must set to rise.

This could be para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
This could be para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

This could be para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Could be para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

This could be para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Could be para- para- paradise
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

Caught Between The Landslide

0 voices

These ideas and the sounds that come with them
A particular way of touching without even moving your hands
That thought I stole from your dream
where you felt like staying here,
with me.

All my happy places in the past
filled with people that no longer share my timeline
and have moved on without me in theirs
seeing how their routines don't realize I'm not there anymore

Those fears I carry in a backpack, always in there
afraid I won't have them when the moment comes
and the truth is revealed to me
the reasons why I haven't change them
... I carry the same fears all the time.

I'll tie all this to a safe place
I'll make sure they don't go away and my head thinks of them continuously
Because tonight, I don't wanna move
I don't wanna change
I don't wanna blink
Refusing the actions of time and just holding on to this unfortunate feeling.

Lyrics by Oasis

How many special people change?
How many lives are living strange?
Where were you while we were getting high?
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannonball
Where were you while we were getting high?

Someday you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova or in the Sky
Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova
A champagne supernova or in the sky

Wake up the dawn and ask her why
A dreamer dreams she never dies
Wipe that tear away now from your eye
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannonball
Where were you while we were getting high?

Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova or in the sky
Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova
A champagne supernova

'Cause people believe that they're
Gonna get away for the summer
But you and I, we live and die
The world's still spinning round
We don't know why
Why, why, why, why

How many special people change?
How many lives are living strange?
Where were you while we were getting high?
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannonball
Where were you while we were getting high?

Someday you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova or in the sky
Some day you will find me
Caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova
A champagne supernova

'Cause people believe that they're
Gonna get away for the summer
But you and I, we live and die
The world's still spinning round
We don't know why
Why, why, why, why

How many special people change?
How many lives are living strange?
Where were you while we were getting high?
We were getting high

The Cage

It might be too much to ask, but for just this moment, before I go to sleep and open a window for these thoughts to become dreams... I'll think of it as something a bit less than impossible.

There's a door, one empty space and some light; the atmosphere feels heavy, warm and thick. And there they stand, just waiting for me.

I own the key, I control time inside my room and there's a perfect syncronization between situations... Like giving me permission to play this way.

Nothing awaits beyond these walls, and what I let myself feel in here will only feed my ego until my hands stop typing these words.

The thing is... even when this room is surrounded by so much certainty to be real, it would elevate my soul so easily. A room built for mistakes, isolated from consequences and always filled with my most deep desires.
