A Vida Como A Vida É

Peguei este papel, sim
E pus tudo em pranto
Para que a tinta jorre
E a marca d'água se finque

Que a dor da decepção não me engula,
Porém.
Que o choque ainda me desce a garganta
E arranha...

Lutarei sim por um final
Não o que todos merecem,
Tão digno que é,
Mas o meu
Adornado de pecado
E um ou outro sentimento ruim...

For The One Who Rules My Heart

I always saw more than your eyes show
And you know that


I can't say that what I see is true
Since my mind travels most of the time
But I see more, indeed


And I can say
You are not that bright, you know
You're not that shining, although
People see it in your eyes


You learned, with life, to steal a spark
And make it shine more than it should


You are a genius , indeed
A master of acting and modification
But not a star, really
Never the star...


I still would take you with me
Take you clothes off of my bed


But still, you wouldn't be a star...
Never the star...

Take Yourself to Rest

You ought to take a breath
And look inside your eyes
On the mirror


Maybe you can finally see
What others say they see in you


But you might also only confirm
Your deepest fear
Of being exactly what you always thought
You were...

Crystal Clear

Aqui venho para deixar claro
(O mais claro que me é possível)
Que todos os risos
Lágrimas
Beijos
Venenos
Mentiras
Verdades
Confissões
E gritos
Que me tocaram os lábios
Durante todo a vida
Nunca deixarão de fazer parte
Da complexidade que me esculpe...
A cada dia, a cada hora, a cada fôlego...
E é por tudo isso que respiro...
Que fique claro...

There Was Light Inside

My eyes wouldn't work
There was no light
To reflect and return


But sensitivity worked well
There was hot and cold
And then cold no more


Entwined arms and legs
Would embrace two bodies
And tie them up together


But I'm no fool
The first will be last
And the last is yet to come...


Then breath
May it be pleasure
Or relief...

Lives&Knives

Once I heard about meanings
But I didn't mean to
It came for me
It chased me...
And how mean I was...


Some people heard about meanings
And started coloring lives
In shades of red and blue
They came for me
They begged me...
And how mean I was...


Then I heard about meaningless lives
And I came for them
I colored them all
In shades of blue and white...
I came for them, I begged
For their pain...
But it was too late
And how meaningless I was...

Se os Últimos Minutos Doessem Como a Vida

Veio, então, a luz:


Fui varrida para a beira do precipício
Vendo a luz que me esperava lá embaixo


Depois, veio a escuridão:


Com toda a fúria que as trevas têm
Fui derrubada em sua essência


E o calor:


Tormento e líquido embaraçavam meu cabelo
Que, solto, chicoteava os gritos ecoados no abismo...


Então, por fim, veio o frio
Que o corpo rígido abraçou
Com seu último suspiro...
