...another weekend without makeup
another evening to myself
well, i guess that i won't be having the time of my life tonight
where do you go when you've finished work?
you should have been home an hour ago
i've got your tea laid out like some kind of fifties housewife

well i'll feed you, but i need you to make a little more effort
i don't like giving you the third degree
i just want what's due to me...

there are wants and there are needs
and they're two very different things
you can love or be in love, again,
they're two very different things,
yes they're two very different things

i want to talk but you're much too tired
you've got a job but if you don't get fired soon
i'll be extremely surprised
where do you go when you've finished work
you should have been back about an hour ago
you've left me fashioning a double bed and acting
like some kind of fifties housewife

you and i, we're different
you and i, we're two very different things
but still i've got you, i've got you under my skin...

 

there are wants and there are needs
and they're two very different things
you can love or be in love, again,
they're two very different things,
yes they're two very different things.

 

(The Long Blondes)

Here is a song from the wrong side of town
Where Im bound to the ground by the loneliest sound
And it pounds from within and is pinning me down

Here is a page from the emptiest stage
A cage or the heaviest cross ever made
A gauge of the deadliest trap ever laid

And I thank you for bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally Ive found that I belong here

The heat and the sickliest sweet smelling sheets
That cling to the backs of my knees and my feet
Well Im drowning in time to a desperate beat

And I thank you for bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally Ive found that I belong

Feels like home
I should have known
From my first breath

God send the only true friend I call mine
Pretend that Ill make amends the next time
Befriend the glorious end of the line

And I thank you for bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally Ive found that I belong here

 

(Depeche Mode)

Numerose immagini arruolate dalle idee
di un bel po' di fervidi pensieri
splendono di vita nuova e fanno gli altri me
in alterazione dei miei desideri

dei miei piaceri dei miei valori
dei miei sorrisi e dei miei cattivi umori
dei miei difetti dei miei colori
dei miei misteri e dei miei disamori.

Chi mi credo d'essere? Non vale: "non lo so"...
c'è un fulgente immaginario da osservare.
Cercherò un riflesso iridescente e favoloso
che abbia luce da farmi brillare:

un radioso mix di tutti "noi"
che combini un me ideale a "voi";
un radioso mix per cui vivere
di riflesso, senza remore.

Una-centouno-centomila immagini di me.

Quale "realtà" può figurare
la combinazione magica ideale?

Una-centouno-centomila immagini di me.

Una-centouno-centomila immagini di me.
sparpagliate fra di voi
Una-centouno-centomila immagini di me.
ma chi cazzo se ne frega poi?
Una-centouno-centomila immagini di me.
sparpagliate fra di voi
Una-centouno-centomila immagini di me.

 

(Marlene Kuntz)

 

Sconvolto così io non ti so dire
come dove e quando e se tu mi avrai
Ma mi piaci così, mentre continui a bere,
a fumare, ma quante sigarette che hai
E ti avvicini e con le mani
ti fai i tuoi piani e allora

Dimmi che gusto ci provi ad avermi
che gusto ci provi a tenermi le mani sui fianchi
ma non mi prendi mai
Dimmi che quando volo ti perdi
resti da solo e mi pensi almeno ogni tanto
non mi prendi mai, intanto non mi prendi mai

E ti seguo così una volta ogni tanto
fa bene a tutto, anche alle cose mie
che vanno così un po' di traverso
come le tue parole le tue filosofie
E ti avvicini, prendi le mie mani
E vai...

Dimmi che gusto ci provi ad avermi
che gusto ci provi a tenermi le mani sui fianchi
ma non mi prendi mai
Dimmi che quando volo ti perdi
resti da solo e mi pensi almeno ogni tanto
non mi prendi mai, intanto non mi prendi mai

Non finirà tutto qui, non ti sembra il caso
vedersi ancora per un'altra follia.
E' andata così, ancora una volta
sconvolta e poi ognuno a casa sua

Dimmi che gusto ci provi ad amarmi
che gusto ci provi a tenermi quegli occhi davanti...
a tenermi quegli occhi davanti
ma non mi prendi mai
Dimmi che quando domani mi perdi
resti da solo e mi pensi
non mi prendi mai, intanto non mi prendi mai
non mi prendi, non mi prendi, non mi prendi mai. ..

 

(Irene Grandi)

This could be destiny
Oh sweetheart
I've had no sense of time
Since we started
I got friends in need
Oh sweetheart
I'd go lengths and lengths and lengths of love
Since we started this thing now

Complex salacious removal
Complex salacious removal

There is a bitter breed
Oh sweetheart
They will be watching you sometimes
With their bitter hearts

But we went through with these
Oh we're shifting the heartache
We want strong summer love that must roam washed up blood
Just to stay away

Complex salacious removal
Complex salacious removal

Complex salacious removal

 

(Interpol)

I still don't know what I was waiting for
And my time was running wild
A million dead-end streets
Every time I thought I'd got it made
It seemed the taste was not so sweet
So I turned myself to face me
But I've never caught a glimpse
Of how the others must see the faker
I'm much too fast to take that test

Changes
(Turn and face the stranger) Changes
Don't want to be a richer man
Changes
(Turn and face the stranger)
Changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I can't trace time

I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence and
So the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're going through

Changes
(Turn and face the stranger)
Changes
Don't tell them to grow up and out of it
Changes
(Turn and face the stranger)
Changes
Where's your shame
You've left us up to our necks in it
Time may change me
But you can't trace time

Strange fascination, fascinating me
Changes are taking the pace I'm going through
Changes
(Turn and face the stranger)
Changes
Oh, look out you rock 'n rollers
Changes
(Turn and face the stranger)
Changes
Pretty soon you're gonna get a little older
Time may change me
But I can't trace time
I said that time may change me
But I can't trace time

 

(David Bowie)

I'm in a skip divided malfunction
I flap around and dive bomb
Frantically around your light
Enveloped in a sad distraction
I got your voice repeating endlessly
Could you guide me in?
Could you smother me?

I swoop around your head
But I never hit
I'm blinded by your daylight
Electric veins pass through me
I thought there was this big connection
I only got my name I only got the situation
I just need a number and location
Without appropriate papers or permissions
I'm known to bite in tight situations
And I head into your french windows
I thought there was a big connection
I only got my name I only got my situation
I just need my number and location

And my mum keeps telling me
Hey hey hey hey hey hey
The devil may
Hey hey hey hey hey hey
You are a fool 
For sticking round
Yeah you are a fool
For sticking round 
I tried every trick in the book
I tried to look and knew
Every trick in the book
But how come I look?

No more common dress or elliptical caress
Don't look into your eyes cause I'm desperately in love
In love
When you walk in the room everything disappears
When you walk in the room it's a terrible mess
When you walk in the room I start to melt
When you walk in the room I follow you round
Like a dog, I'm a dog, I'm a dog, I'm a lapdog
I'm your lapdog, yeah
I just got a number and location
I just need my number and location

 

(Thom Yorke)
