We were playing by the river and climbing trees
With friends I can’t remember, always scabby knees
Pictures of family secrets I’m glad I’m not involved in

We posed for a family portrait when you were nine
Hung on the walls of your bedroom until you turned 21
It then grew old in a wooden box
Along with pictures [...]


God damned

03Nov09

So go ahead and play hard to get, cause I just get a kick out of it

I think my dreams are starting to reflect on what’s going on right now, again!


Variables

21Oct09

Era indispensable plantear una nueva estrategia y avanzar
Era importante destapar toda esa verdad
Siempre respondiendo sin pensar en las consecuencias
Error garrafal
La mala fortuna de dudar
Esfuma la esperanza y el deseo
Anula la corriente de alto voltaje
Que hace ver el mundo en blanco y negro
Llena de astillas las caras mustias
No es fácil resistir a los mensajes eléctricos
Que atraen [...]


Cornerstone

13Aug09

Thought I saw you in the battleship
But it was only a look-alike
She was nothing but a vision trick
Under the warning light
She was close, close enough to be your ghost
But my chances turned to toast
When I asked her if I could call her your name
I thought I saw you in the rusty hook
Huddled up in wicker [...]


Take a cue

25Jun09

So sentimental
Not sentimental no !
Romantic not disgusting yet
Darling I’m down and lonely
When with the fortunate only
I’ve been looking for something else
Do let do let do let jugulate do let do let do
Let’s go slowly, discouraged,
Distant from other interests
On your favorite weekend ending
This love’s for gentlemen only
That’s with the fortunate only
No I [...]


I know that it’s too soon
But it’s the final days
‘Cause playing all these games
Is just a time to waste
As soon as I met you
It all began to fade
So let me kiss you now
And I’ll fade away
You said you should be free
I know you said that once
Just tell me it’d be me
If [...]


La cafetera

02Apr09

Escribiendo en servilletas
Que tú tienes mucha jeta
Ahondando en lo profundo
De las mierdas de este mundo
He bebido hasta jurarme
Que hoy no intentaré olvidarte
Arrastrando más problemas
Lamentando tus dilemas
Ya no me quedan vergüenzas
Implorando que te vuelvas
Y recojas los pedazos
Pero tú no harás ni caso
Preparando cafeteras
Para que tomes conmigo
Otro almuerzo distinguido
Disfrutando del domingo
Te has perdido cien domingos
(THE NEW RAEMON)


Way better now

30Mar09

Is that the follower you’re so frightened of
Oh no I left him I’m way better now
Is that the mom you’re growing a copy of
Oh no I left her I’m way better now
Is that your symbol for a true friendship then
Oh no I left that I’m way better now
Is that your brother [...]


Si damos por sentado que perdemos las batallas ya
Estamos reventados ya y nos trae sin cuidado si aquí te echan de menos
Te aviso por si acaso
Llegamos a buen puerto cogidos de la mano
Saldremos rodando a cualquier otro sitio
Hartos de incertidumbre
Como de costumbre
Traigo malas noticias
Nos han subido el precio
Para qué preocuparse si acabaremos tiesos
¡Aprovechemos esto!
Marchemos cuanto [...]


Hace unos 5 años ya de la primera vez que escuché esta canción… y cada vez me siento más identificada.

A song to play when I’m lonely
Win and never play a game again
No one to face when I’m falling
Holding tight to dreams that never end
I’ll be you
I do
I’ll be you
No one’s afraid [...]
