When the heart
Is cut or cracked or broken
Do not clutch it
Let the wound lie open
Let the wind
From the good old sea blow in
To bathe the wound with salt
Let a stray dog lick it
Let a bird lean in the hole and sing
A simple song like a tiny bell
And let it ring
Let it go. Let it out.
Let it all unravel.
Let it free and it can be
A path on which to travel.
Michael Leunig
"There's so many things that we miss in our everyday lives
We're so busy hustling, bustling chasing far away dreams
We forget the little things
Like blue skies, green eyes and our babies growing
Like rainbows, fresh snow and the smell of summer
We forget to live.
Give us eyes like children so we live each day as our first
We're so sure we know so much that we forget to listen
Then we want the fickle things
Like cheap thrills fast fuel and constant consumption
Like TV, CDs and cars that speak our names
We forget to live."
Lamb Lyrics
"What the water wants is hurricanes,
and sailboats to ride on its back.
What the water wants is sun kiss,
and land to run into and back.
I have a fish stone burning my elbow,
reminding me to know that I'm glad
that I have a bottle filled with my old teeth.
They fell out like a tear in the bag.
And I have a sister somewhere in Detroit
She has black hair and small hands.
And I have a kettledrum
I'll hit the earth with you.
And I will crochet you a hat.
And I have a red kite;
I'll put you right in it.
I'll show you the sky"
Sufjan Stevens Lyrics
The Dining Rooms - Tre
"Clipside of the pinkeye flight
I'm not the percent you think survives
I need sanctuary in the pages of this book
Gestating with all the other rats
Nurse said that my skin will need a graft
I am of pockmarked shapes
The vermin you need to loathe."
The Mars Volta Lyrics
I never meant to go
I never meant to fall but I'm only gone
I never meant to go I'm only gone inside my own
Some day I'll wake you
Some times I'll wait for myself
Some day I'll hold you through
Tonight I'm alone to go high
Tonight I'm alone to go
In state of confusion you made an illusion
State of confusion you made an illusion
It is exciting to be away
Feeling you all inside of me
I'm standing here but I'm really gone
You see me as I go
You've been precious to me
I've been blessed in the way
But Now I'm falling I'm inside
Elsiane Lyrics
"Forgive me, Let live me
Set my spirit free
Losing, it comes in a cold wave
Of guilt and shame all over me
Child has arrived in the darkness
The hollow triumph of a tree
Forgive me, Let live me
Bless my destiny
Forgive me, Let live me
Kiss my falling knee"
Antony & The Johnsons Lyrics
"Even though I'll never need her,
even though she's only giving me pain,
I'll be on my knees to feed her,
spend a day to make her smile again
Even though I'll never need her,
even though she's only giving me pain
As the world is soft around her,
leaving me with nothing to disdain.
Even though I'm not her minder,
even though she doesn't want me around,
I am on my feet to find her,
to make sure that she is safe and sound.
Even though I'm not her minder,
even though she doesn't want me around,
I am on my feet to find her,
to make sure that she is safe from harm.
The sun sets on the war,
the day breaks and everything is new..."
Kings of Convenience Lyrics
"I thought that I knew it all
Id seen all the signs before.
I thought that you were the one
In darkness my heart was won."
Dead Can Dance Lyrics
"Something that you said just stuck in my throat
Made me fall apart and wrythe in pain
Could it be the one I love could hate me so
And will I find the love I lost again
Sticks and stones will break my bones but now I know
Your words go so much deeper down inside
Now every dream we ever had has turned to stone
You'll never know the rivers that I cried.
All in a day
And the cruel things we say
Love runs away
If you don't
Treat her gently..."
Lou Rhodes Lyrics
"There's sin all around,
Lovers cannot let down,
and the winter wears and tears
our bones.
There's a man in this town
is shooting us down, he
thinks he's a big man but he doesnt know anything about us or anything at all.
At night he lies awake,
and his heart aches,
'cos its cold - ohh ohh old,
he sweats it out all the night through,
and he throws up all over me and you.
i wanna catch my difficult
'cos i'm scared of growin old
don't return the love i gave
your still my favourite."
Chris Garneau Lyrics
ese amor se convirtio en sarna.
la tristeza y alegrias... esas ya las tenia.
