thankful for...

1. the strength to carry on
2. the certainty that night will come, and then morning, and then night...
3. forgiveness
4. ...

replaceable


replaceable
it's cynical
call me useless
just you wait
put me down
and call it fate

the end


this is the end
beautiful friend
this is the end
my only friend,
the end

circus lights


more light, more heat

are you asking me
to take you, hold you,
show you more
more light, more heat

if you're asking me
i'll be there,
when these circus lights go out

oggi è domani è oggi

... se anche noi, ogni tanto, ci ricordassimo che è giustappunto verso una fine comunque ingloriosa che corriamo, può darsi che passeremmo molto più tempo a mangiare dolcetti che invece dovremmo serbare, piuttosto che angustiarci l’oggi impedendoci di fare qualsiasi cosa in nome di un domani che non si capisce bene quand’è che arriverà (arriverà?).

suo gân ~ part II

Paid ag ofni, dim ond deilen
Gura, gura ar y ddôr
Paid ag ofni, ton fach unig
Sua, sua ar lan y môr
Huna blentyn, nid oes yma
Ddim i roddi iti fraw
Gwena'n dawel yn fy mynwes
Ar yr engyl gwynion draw

suo gân



Breichiau mam sy'n dynn amdanat
Cariad mam sy dan fy mron

Ni cha' dim amharu'th gyntun

Ni wna undyn â thi gam

look no further

til death do us part



and even then
maybe not

remember the tinman



there are locks on the doors
and chains stretched across
all the entries to the inside
there's a gate and a fence
and bars to protect
from only God knows what lurks outside

vela/r/s/e



el cuarto de Tula, le cogiò candela
se quedò dormida y no apagò la vela...

this night

there are things/i have done/there's a place/i have gone
there's a beast/and i let it run/now it's running my way

[...]
so take this night/wrap it around me like a sheet
i know i'm not forgiven/but i need a place to sleep
so take this night/and lay me down on the street
i know i'm not forgiven/but i hope that i'll be given some peace

the marriage
