L'uomo col megafono


L'uomo col megafono parlava parlava
parlava di cose importanti, purtroppo
i passanti, passando distratti, a tratti
soltanto sembravano ascoltare il suo
monologo, ma l'uomo col megafono
credeva nei propri argomenti e per questo
andava avanti, ignorando i continui
commenti di chi lo prendeva per matto...

però il fatto è che lui...... soffriva...... lui
soffriva......davvero

L'uomo col megafono cercava, sperava,
tentava di bucare il cemento e gridava
nel vento parole di avvertimento e di lotta,
ma intanto la voce era rotta e la tosse
allungava i silenzi, sembrava che fosse
questione di pochi momenti, ma
invece di nuovo la voce tornava, la voce
tornava...

COMPAGNI ! AMICI ! UNIAMO LE VOCI !
GIUSTIZIA ! PROGRESSO ! ADESSO !
ADESSO !

L'uomo e il suo megafono sembravano
staccati dal mondo, lui così magro,
profondo e ridicolo insieme, lo sguardo di
un uomo a cui preme davvero qualcosa,
e che grida un tormento reale, non per un
esaurimento privato e banale, ma proprio
per l'odio e l'amore, che danno colore e
calore, colore e calore

ma lui...... soffriva....... lui
soffriva...... davvero

COMPAGNI ! AMICI ! UNIAMO LE VOCI !
GIUSTIZIA ! PROGRESSO ! ADESSO !
ADESSO !

Jesse



I love a boy named Jesse
But Jesse doesn't love me back
He says he has a girl named Chelsea he wants so much

I love a boy named Jesse
But Jesse doesn't love me back
He says he's insecure about what he feels and what he wants
What he feels and what he wants

But everytime he smiles at me
I know we are the same
And that he'll change his world for me
If he just knew my name

There's no need for you to say you saw the life they chose for me
For me

I loved a boy named Jesse
But Jesse doesn't love me back
He wants to kiss and go to bed but he doesn't want to talk
I loved a boy named Jesse
But Jesse doesn't love me back

He says his faith and all that stuff is only in my mind
Only in my mind

All i can hide
I'm doing fine

But everytime he smiles at me i know we are the same
And that'll he'll he change his world for me
If he just knew my name

There's no need for you to say you saw the life they chose for me
For me

I love a boy named Danny
But Danny doesn't love me
He says he has a girl named Chelsea he wants so much

I love a boy named Danny
But Danny doesn't love me
He says he's insecure about what he feels and what he wants
He feels and what he wants

I Need to Wake Up


Have I been sleeping?
I’ve been so still
Afraid of crumbling
Have I been careless?
Dismissing all the distant rumblings
Take me where I am supposed to be
To comprehend the things that I can’t see

Cause I need to move
I need to wake up
I need to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Something’s got to break up
I’ve been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now

And as a child
I danced like it was 1999
My dreams were wild
The promise of this new world
Would be mine
Now I am throwing off the carelessness of youth
To listen to an inconvenient truth

That I need to move
I need to wake up
I need to change

I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Something’s got to break up
I’ve been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now

I am not an island
I am not alone
I am my intentions
Trapped here in this flesh and bone

Oh I need to move
I need to wake up
I need to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Something’s got to break up
I’ve been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now

I want to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Oh, Something’s got to break up
I’ve been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now

Un mondo folle


MAD WORLD (Gary Jules)


All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places
Worn out faces

Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere
Going nowhere

Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression
No expression

Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow
No tomorrow

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying
Are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It’s a very very
Mad world
Mad world

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday
Happy birthday

Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit down and listen
Sit down and listen

Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me
No one knew me

Hello teacher tell me what’s my lesson
Look right through me
Look right through me

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying
Are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It’s a very very
Mad world
Mad world
enlarged in your world
Mad world

Il vento folle


In questi giorni mi risuona nella mente questa bellissima canzone di Giuni Russo, che voglio dedicare al mio amore che legge sempre queste pagine...

Ho piantato un giardino
Di pensieri e sentimenti in piena terra agitati dal vento
Dal vento di un desiderio
Che non vuole, non vuole darsi per vinto
Hou hou hou fait le vent fou
Hou hou hou hou dans la harpe du houx
Hou hou hou fait le vent fou
Hou hou hou hou all’ombra dei sentieri
E poi vederti passare
Nel rumore del mare
Su tappeti di schiuma
Nelle spiagge sognate
Poterti parlare
Mi commuove
Il vento folle porta un atomo d’amore dentro il cuore
Hou hou hou fait le vent fou
Hou hou hou hou all’ombra dei sentieri
Hou hou hou fait le vent fou
Hou hou hou hou all’ombra dei sentieri
Un respiro come un’onda del mare
E la pienezza dell’amore che mi assale ed io foglia nel vento
Quel vento di un desiderio
Che non vuole, non vuole darsi per vinto
E poi ti vengo a cercare nel rumore del mare
Su tappeti di schiuma nelle spiagge sognate
Poterti abbracciare mi commuove
Il vento folle porta un atomo d’amore dentro il cuore
Hou hou hou fait le vent fou
Hou hou hou hou dans la harpe du houx
Hou hou hou fait le vent fou
Hou hou hou hou all’ombra dei sentieri

Viðrar vel til loftárása


Ég læt mig líða áfram
í gegnum hausinn
hugsa hálfa leið
afturábak
Sé sjálfan mig syngja fagnaðarerindið
sem við sömdum saman
Við áttum okkur draum
áttum allt
við riðum heimsendi
við riðum leitandi
klifruðum skýjakljúfa
sem síðar sprungu upp
friðurinn úti
ég lek jafnvægi
dett niður
alger þögn
ekkert svar
En það besta sem guð hefur skapað
er nýr dagur.
