no pussy blues

my face is finished
my body's gone
and i can't help but think
standin' up here in all this applause
and gazin' down at all the young and the beautiful
with their questioning eyes

that i must above all things love myself
that i must above all things love myself
that i must above all things love myself

i saw a girl in the crowd
i ran over i shouted out
i asked if i could take her out
but she said that she didn't want to

i changed the sheets on my bed
i combed the hairs across my head
i sucked in my gut and still she said
that she just didn't want to

i read her eliot i read her yeats
i tried my best to stay up late
i fixed the hinges on her gate
but still she just never wanted to

i bought her a dozen snow white doves
i did her dishes in rubber gloves
i called her honey bee, i called her love
but she just still didn't want to
she just never wants to
damn!

i sent her every type of flower
i played her guitar by the hour
i patted her revolting little chihuahua
but still she just didn't want to

i wrote a song with a hundred lines
i picked a bunch of dandelions
i walked her through the trembling pines wink
but she just even then didn't want to
she just never wants to

i thought i'd try another tack
i'd drink a litre of cognac
i threw her down upon her back
but she just laughed and said that she just didn't want to

i thought i'd have another go
i called her my little-o
i felt like marcel marceau must feel
when she said that she just never wanted to
she just didn't want to

i got the no pussy blues...



 
caro diário : [choose life?] my not that big television

finalmente comprei uma tv. e até um rack pra colocar ela e o dvd player em cima. faz parte da lista ainda nem esboçada de coisas a fazer: ver mais filmes. comer mais pipoca. transformar o lugar onde moro em uma espécie de lar. pra voltar pra um lugar mais aconchegante depois de um dia de life sentence [ou não]. pra receber amigos. whatever.

ghost dog : the way of the samurai


it is a good viewpoint to see the world as a dream. when you have something like a nightmare, you will wake up and tell yourself that it was only a dream. it is said that the world we live in is not a bit different from this.


 


agarre a vida

preciso reler este livro aqui.

melhor agarrar a vida.

[saul bellow na wikipedia]


 
larvas

passamos a vida rastejando feito uma lagarta, à espera da borboleta esplêndida e diáfana que guardamos em nós mesmos. e então o tempo passa, a ninfose não vem, continuamos em estado de larva, constatação aflitiva, mas fazer o quê? o suicídio, claro, é sempre uma opção.

mas, para dizer a verdade, o suicídio não me seduz. pensei muito a respeito, claro; e, se fosse o caso, eu faria o seguinte: apertaria uma granada contra o peito e partiria numa bela explosão de alegria. uma granadinha redonda, eu tiraria o pino com delicadeza antes de soltar a trava, sorrindo ao barulhinho metálico da mola, o último que eu chegaria a ouvir, exceção feita às batidas do meu coração.

e, então, a felicidade, ou pelo menos a paz, e as paredes do escritório decoradas de farrapos humanos. as faxineiras que limpem, são pagas para isso, azar delas.

haze

electronic


i’m here alone all by myself with no-one else
i need someone to share these thoughts about myself
i don’t know who i can trust
this picture is starting to rust

and as i press upon myself a form of torture
i write these words for someone else, just like an author
i don’t know who i can trust
i don’t know who i can trust

everybody won’t you come with me
we’ll take a ride across the sea
when we get there, if we don’t drown
i’ll turn your whole life upside down

and later on with each illegal breath i take
i lose resistance for an instant to my fate
how i’ll miss you when you are gone, oh yeah
i’m a number lower than one

i’m on my own, i think this stuff is getting stronger
i’m wide awake and i can’t take it any longer
how i’ll miss you when you are gone
i’m a number lower than one

everybody won’t you come with me
help me find what i can’t see
i’m sick of crawling along the ground
help me turn my world around

everybody won’t you come with me
everybody come with me
if i don’t find what i’ve come for
you won’t see me anymore

sometimes it’s hard just to find some peace of mind
it feels like i am going crazy almost all of the time
and if we can’t live this way, then what will i do
like my father and my mother i’m depending on you

you’ve got to fight just to keep your peace of mind
you’ve got to hold on tight, don’t cross that line
sometimes i cry like a baby when i look outside
i’m on a losing streak, driving through moss side

like the river deep or the ocean wide
like the river deep or the ocean wide
like the river deep or the ocean wide
there’s a crack in the wall but i just can’t hide


 
this was my week according to my friend with the irish blood

monday - humiliation
tuesday - suffocation
wednesday - condescension
thursday - is pathetic
by friday life has killed me, by friday life has killed me
oh pretty one, oh pretty one


 
stupid lines for a stupid song maybe

you got crocodiles for eyes
why don´t you come and make me sigh?
why don´t you come and kiss my smile?

i miss those little mickey mouses.

silence

ontem eu estive aqui.

e não vou mais encher a paciência de ninguém com aquele papo sobre como foi importante e como vi e ouvi minha vida ali hahaha blablabla.

your silent face

a thought that never changes
remains a stupid lie
it's never been quite the same
no hearing or breathing
no movement, no colors
just silence

rise and fall of shame
a search that shall remain
we asked you what you'd seen
you said you didn't care

sound formed in a vacuum
may seem a waste of time
it's always been just the same
no hearing or breathing
no movement no lyrics
just nothing

the sign that leads the way
the path we can not take
you've caught me at a bad time
so why don't you piss off

karl hyde : underworld

and steel boy
you had chemicals boy
i've grown so close to you
boy and you just groan boy
she said comeover comeover
she smiled at you boy.

wonderful and hot times
on your telephone line
and god and everything

and in walk an angel

and now are you on your way
to a new tension

ego tripping at the gates of hell

the flaming lips


i was waiting on a moment
but the moment never came
all the billion other moments
we're just slipping all away
i must have been tripping
just ego tripping

i was wanting you to love me
but your love it never came
all the other love around me
was just wasting all away
i must have been tripping
just ego tripping

i was waiting on a moment
but the moment never came -
but the moment never came -
