all roads (Billy Corgan)



gather me up some stars
sprinkled from your eyes
beckon forth the little sighs

should all roads disappear but one
then leave while i am sleeping

these hours watching from windows
play music without autumn
the scripting of light
moves ever so slight
wherever i sit today

hands go thru glass
and dreams thru you
whatever passes as chances
also passes for truth

may i tumble
may i call
may i find you at all

friend of a friend (Foo Fighters)



he needs a quiet room
with a lock to keep him in 
it's just a quiet room
and he's there

he plays an old guitar

with a coin found by the phone
it was his friend's guitar
that he played

hmm mmm mmm


he's never been in love

but he knows just what love is
he says nevermind
and no one speaks

he thinks he drinks too much

'cause when he tells his two best friends
i think i drink too much
no one speaks
no one speaks
no one speaks

hmm hmm mmm mmm mmm 

hmm hmm mmm

he plays an old guitar

with a coin found by the phone
it was his friend's guitar
that he played
when he plays
no one speaks
no one speaks
when he plays
no one speaks

dear lover (Foo Fighters)


Dear lover
Do you remember?
The sound of your laughter wrapped in mine
And that was all
I need to fall in love

This matter
It's something bigger
Than anything ever graced my heart
And that was all
I could fall in love...with you
And I can't stall this now

Did you find some happiness with me?
'Cause now I know the way true love should be

Dear lover
Do you remember?
The piece of my heart that I gave you
And that was all
I need to fall in love

It shattered
Slipped through my fingers
Floated down safely into your hands
And that was all
I could fall in love...with you
I can't stall this now

Did you find some happiness with me?
Now I know the way true love should be

Ooh Ooh Ooh
Did you find some happiness with me?
Yea yea yea
Yea yea yea yea

ο έρωτας κοιμήθηκε νωρίς (Πυξ-Λαξ)



 Βρίσκω τα κομμάτια σου εκείνα τ’ ακριβά σου,
τ’ αγκάλιασα, τα κράτησα για να θυμάμαι τ’ όνομά σου.

Στο δρόμο σέρνοντας σκυφτός, σελίδες τα όνειρά μου
στεφάνια απ’ τις ελπίδες μου και το άγχος του έρωτά μου.

Αυτές τις ώρες που έρχεσαι ζεστή και βελουδένια
μου είναι δύσκολο να είμαι απλώς χωρίς εσένα.

Αυτές τις ώρες που έρχεσαι ζεστή και βελουδένια
μου είναι δύσκολο να είμαι απλώς χωρίς εσένα.

αφού λοιπόν ξεχάστηκα (Παύλος Παυλίδης)



Αφού λοιπόν ξεχάστηκα και τ' όμορφο καράβι
καιρό πια ταξιδεύει μακριά χωρίς εμένα,
εσύ που πίνεις χρόνια από του χρόνου το πηγάδι
πιες ένα ποτήρι και για μένα...

Αφού λοιπόν ξεχάστηκα στην όμορφή σας πόλη
που πλέει μέσ' στη νύχτα με τα φώτα αναμμένα,
θα βγω να περπατήσω, θα βρω που πήγαν όλοι
όσοι ξεχάστηκαν απόψε σαν εμένα...

Αφού λοιπόν ξεχάστηκα και πρέπει να τα σβήσω
τα φώτα του θεάτρου που αφήσατε αναμμένα,
θα πάω στην τελευταία σειρά και θα καθίσω
στη θέση που κρατήσατε για μένα...

Και τότε ίσως μπορέσω να θυμηθώ τα λόγια,
που ακόμη κιτρινίζουν σε συρτάρια κλειδωμένα.
Πείτε μου επιτέλους τι δείχνουν τα ρολόγια,
πείτε το επιτέλους και σε μένα...

Αφού λοιπόν ξεχάστηκα και πέρασε σαν τρένο
η ζωή από μπροστά μου με τα βλέφαρα κλεισμένα,
θα κάτσω λίγο ακόμα εδώ να περιμένω
απόψε ίσως δε λείψω σε κανέναν...

i could have lied (Red Hot Chili Peppers)



there must be something
 in the way i feel
that she don't want me to feel
the stare she bares cut me
i don't care
you see so what if i bleed

i could never change
just what i feel
my face will never show
what is not real

a mountain never seems to have
the need to speak
a look that shares so many seek
the sweetest feeling
i got from you
the things i said to you were true

i could never change
just what i feel
my face will never show
what is not real

i could have lied i'm such a fool
my eyes could never never never
keep their cool
showed her and i told her how
she struck me but i'm fucked up now

but now she's gone, yes she's gone away
a soulful song
that would not stay
you see she hides 'cause she is scared
but i don't care
i won't be spared...

tonight's music (Katatonia)



who could call my name without regretting
who could see beyond this my darkness
and for once save their own prayers
who could mirror down just a little of their sun

how could this go so very wrong
that i must depend on darkness
would anyone follow me further down
how could this go so very far
that i need someone to say
what is wrong
not with the world, but me

who could call my name without regretting
who could promise to never destroy me
tonight my head is full of wishes
and everything i drink is full of her
