Anywhere but here - K. D. Lang
All too often I set my life aside.
All Too often my dreams went sailing by.
A chance of freedom, a chance of fate, a chance I'll take.
Oh leave it all to disappear.
I'm heading anywhere but here.
All too often the dreams I've dreamed have died.
And all too often I'm never satisfied.
A chance of freedom, a chance of fate, a chance I'll take.
Oh leave it all to disappear.
I'm heading anywhere but here.
Because I want a life, a souvenir.
I'll find it anywhere but here.
(California is gonna be the place for me.)
Oh leave it all to disappear.
I'm heading anywhere but here.
Because I want a life, a souvenir.
I'll find it anywhere but here.
I'll find it anywhere but here.
I'm heading anywhere but here.
All too often I set my life aside.
All Too often my dreams went sailing by.
A chance of freedom, a chance of fate, a chance I'll take.
Oh leave it all to disappear.
I'm heading anywhere but here.
All too often the dreams I've dreamed have died.
And all too often I'm never satisfied.
A chance of freedom, a chance of fate, a chance I'll take.
Oh leave it all to disappear.
I'm heading anywhere but here.
Because I want a life, a souvenir.
I'll find it anywhere but here.
(California is gonna be the place for me.)
Oh leave it all to disappear.
I'm heading anywhere but here.
Because I want a life, a souvenir.
I'll find it anywhere but here.
I'll find it anywhere but here.
I'm heading anywhere but here.
Nell'Italia dei Borgia ci sono stati massacri, terrore, assassinii e hanno prodotto da Vinci, Michelangelo e il Rinascimento. In Svizzera hanno avuto 500 anni di pace e amore fraterno, e cos'hanno fatto? L'orologio a cucù.

Viene Gennaio silenzioso e lieve, un fiume addormentato
fra le cui rive giace come neve il mio corpo malato, il mio corpo malato...
Sono distese lungo la pianura bianche file di campi,
son come amanti dopo l'avventura neri alberi stanchi, neri alberi stanchi...
fra le cui rive giace come neve il mio corpo malato, il mio corpo malato...
Sono distese lungo la pianura bianche file di campi,
son come amanti dopo l'avventura neri alberi stanchi, neri alberi stanchi...

Brilliant Trees by David Sylvian
When you come to me
I’ll question myself again
Is this grip on life still my own ?
When every step I take
Leads me so far away
Every thought should bring me closer home
And there you stand
Making my life possible
Raise my hands up to heaven
But only you could know
My whole world stands in front of me
By the look in your eyes
By the look in your eyes
My whole life stretches in front of me
Reaching up like a flower
Leading my life back to the soil
Every plan I’ve made ’s
Lost in the scheme of things
Within each lesson lies the price to learn
A reason to believe
Divorces itself from me
Every hope I hold lies in my arms
And there you stand
Making my life possible
Raise my hands up to heaven
But only you could know
My whole world stands in front of me
By the look in your eyes
By the look in your eyes
My whole life stretches in front of me
Reaching up like a flower
Leading my life back to the soil
When you come to me
I’ll question myself again
Is this grip on life still my own ?
When every step I take
Leads me so far away
Every thought should bring me closer home
And there you stand
Making my life possible
Raise my hands up to heaven
But only you could know
My whole world stands in front of me
By the look in your eyes
By the look in your eyes
My whole life stretches in front of me
Reaching up like a flower
Leading my life back to the soil
Every plan I’ve made ’s
Lost in the scheme of things
Within each lesson lies the price to learn
A reason to believe
Divorces itself from me
Every hope I hold lies in my arms
And there you stand
Making my life possible
Raise my hands up to heaven
But only you could know
My whole world stands in front of me
By the look in your eyes
By the look in your eyes
My whole life stretches in front of me
Reaching up like a flower
Leading my life back to the soil

Renato Zero > Cattura (2003) > C'è Fame
Una doccia ed un caffè
esco di casa che sono le sei
e con il traffico che c'è
alle nove sarò lì da te
lo spazzolino e un po' di biancheria
che tutto il resto non ci servirà
siamo d'accordo niente nostalgia
lontani dai ricordi
questi erano gli accordi...
chi vuoi che se ne accorga mai
sparire è facile in questa città
ognuno preda dei fantasmi suoi
vite spogliate di una dignità
non si torna indietro più
è l'occasione giusta per noi due
portare il cuore via da qui
un cambio radicale
al sangue farà bene
andare verso il sole
senza più queste catene
fame...
di nuova luce e di chiarezza
fame...
della bontà di una carezza
fame...
un'esigenza naturale
fame...
non si può vivere di solo pane
fame...
più nutrimento per la mente
fame...
questo è un benessere apparente
fame...
c'è chi si abbuffa e chi digiuna
fame...
si sazia solamente chi ha fortuna
dovessi ritardare un po'
non allarmarti non cambio idea
magari mi soffermerò
rapito da una fotografia
stagione che non tornerai
così capace di serenità
che grandi artisti che eravamo noi...
rischiare questa faccia
piegarsi non va bene
e presentarsi al mondo
ancora con queste catene
fame...
piatti sconditi piatti vuoti
fame...
questa la mensa degli idioti
fame...
un minestrone i sentimenti
fame...
pensieri masticati e poi sputati
fame...
c'è ancora troppa indifferenza
fame...
discorsi privi di sostanza
fame...
il pasto dei privilegiati
fame...
gli avanzi ai cani ai vecchi e ai disperati...
un cambio radicale
al sangue farà bene
andare verso il sole
senza più queste catene
fame...
di tutto tranne che di vita
fame...
l'amore ormai si è messo a dieta
fame...
come è salata la violenza
fame...
è qui c'è ancora fame di speranza fame...
noi, no
fame...
io ti riscatterò
fame...
noi, no
fame...
non si può vivere di solo pane
fame...

Dedicata a mio padre... che giusto vent'anni fa (1987) mi guardava con odio mentre la sparavo allo stereo per la ventesima volta...
Guns N' Roses
Paradise City
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home (Oh, won't you please take me home)
Just an urchin livin' under the street
I'm a hard case that's tough to beat
I'm your charity case
So by me somethin' to eat
I'll pay you at another time
Take it to the end of the line
Rags to riches
Or so they say
You gotta
Keep pushin' for the fortune and fame
You know it's, it's all a gamble
When it's just a game
You treat it like a capitol crime
Everybody' doin' their time
CHORUS x2
Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber
Why I'm here, I can't quite remember
The surgoen general say's it's hazardous to breathe
I'd have another cigarette
But I can't see
Tell me that you're gonna believe
CHORUS x2
So far away x4
Capitain America's been torn apart
Now he's a court jester
With a broken heart
He said turn me around
And take me back to the start
I must be losing my mind
"Are you blind?!"
I've seen it all a mllion times
CHORUS x4
I want to go
I want to know
Oh, won't you please take me home
I want to see
Oh, look at me
Oh, won't you please take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home (Oh, won't you please take me home)
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home
Take me down
Oh yeah
Beat me down
Oh, won't you please take me home
I want to see
Oh, look at me
Oh, won't you please take me home
I want to see
Boy, I'm gonna be mean
Oh, oh take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home
I want to go
I want to know
Oh, won't you please take me hooooooome
Baby
erano veramente una grande band, malata, sporca e cattiva... sigh

Dream - Cranberries
Oh my life is changing everyday
in every possible way
And though my dreams
it's never quite as it seems
Never quite as it seems
I know I felt like this before
But now I'm feeling it even more
Because it came from you
Then I open up and see
The person fumbling here is me
A different way to be
I want more, impossible to ignore
Impossible to ignore
And they'll come true
impossible not to do
Impossible not to do
And now I tell you openly
You have my heart so don't hurt me
For what I couldn't find
Talk to me amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You're everything to me
Oh my life is changing everyday
In every possible way
And though my dreams
it's never quite as it seems
'cause you're a dream to me
Dream to me
Oh my life is changing everyday
in every possible way
And though my dreams
it's never quite as it seems
Never quite as it seems
I know I felt like this before
But now I'm feeling it even more
Because it came from you
Then I open up and see
The person fumbling here is me
A different way to be
I want more, impossible to ignore
Impossible to ignore
And they'll come true
impossible not to do
Impossible not to do

You have my heart so don't hurt me
For what I couldn't find

And though my dreams

Direttamente dal mio cuore....
Iron Maiden
Revelations
"O God of Earth and Altar,
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not thy thunder from us,
But take away our pride."
[G.K Chesterton: English Hymnal]
Just a babe in a black abyss,
No reason for a place like this,
The walls are cold and souls cry out in pain,
An easy way for the blind to go,
A clever path for the fools who know
The Secret of the Hanged Man - the smile on his lips.
The light of the Blind - you'll see,
The venom that tears my spine,
The Eyes of the Nile are opening - you'll see.
She came to me with a serpent's kiss,
As the Eye of the Sun rose on her lips,
Moonlight catches silver tears I cry,
So we lay in a black embrace,
And the Seed is sown in a holy place
And I watched, and I waited for the Dawn.
The light of the Blind - you'll see,
The venom that tears my spine,
The Eyes of the Nile are opening - you'll see.
Blind all of us together,
Ablaze with Hope and Free,
No storm or heavy weather
Will rock the boat you'll see.
The time has come to close your eyes
And still the wind and rain,
For the one who will be King
Is the Watcher in the Ring.
It is You.
