To Somewhere Around Midnight είναι το ΑΠΟΛΥΤΟ soundtrack του φετινού καλοκαιριού!
[I]And it starts, sometime around midnight.
Or at least that?s when you lose yourself
for a minute or two.
As you stand, under the bar lights.
And the band plays some song
about forgetting yourself for a while.
And the piano?s this melancholy soundtrack to her smile.
And that white dress she?s wearing
you haven?t seen her for a while.
But you know, that she?s watching.
She?s laughing, she?s turning.
She?s holding her tonic like a cross*.
The room?s suddenly spinning.
She walks up and asks how you are.
So you can smell her perfume.
You can see her lying naked in your arms.
And so there?s a change, in your emotions.
And all these memories come rushing
like feral waves to your mind.
Of the curl of your bodies,
like two perfect circles entwined.
And you feel hopeless and homeless
and lost in the haze of the wine.
Then she leaves, with someone you don?t know.
But she makes sure you saw her.
She looks right at you and bolts.
As she walks out the door,
your blood boiling
your stomach in ropes.
Oh and when your friends say,
?What is it? You look like you?ve seen a ghost.?
Then you walk, under the streetlights.
And you?re too drunk to notice,
that everyone is staring at you.
You just don?t care what you look like,
the world is falling around you.
You just have to see her.
You just have to see her.
You just have to see her.
You just have to see her.
You just have to see her.
You know that she?ll break you in two.[/I]
What have you achieved now you’re old
Did you fulfill ambition, do as you were told
Or are you still doing the same this year
Should I give sorrow, or turn round and sneer
I know that the prospects weren’t all that good
But they improved, and I’d have thought that you could
Have strived for that something we all have deep inside
Not let it vanish, along with your pride
Now with the aid of your new walking stick
You hobble along through society thick
And look mesmerized by the face of it all
You keep to the gutter in case you fall
[CENTER][FONT=“Comic Sans MS”]Yeah, hey, hey
When somethings dark, let me shed a little light on it
When somethings cold, let me put a little fire on it
If somethings old, I wanna put a bit of shine on it
When somethings gone, I wanna fight to get it back again Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, fight to get it back again
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
When somethings broke, I wanna put a bit of fixin on it
When somethings bored, I wanna put a little exciting on it
If somethings low, I wanna put a little high on it
When somethings lost, I wanna fight to get it back again Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, fight to get it back again
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
When signals cross, I wanna put a little straight on it
If there’s no love, I wanna try to love again
I?ll say your prayers, I?ll take your side
I’ll find us a way to make light
I’ll dig your grave, we’ll dance and sing
What’s saved could be one last lifetime
Πίσω μου πάγοι που προσεύχονται ν’ αρπάξουν φωτιά
μπρος μου φωτιές που περιμένουν να παγώσουν
κι ανάμεσά τους μια άγρια πεινασμένη στιγμή
που περιμένει πληρωμή
από μια άδεια καρδιά κι από ένα άδειο κορμί
Πίσω μου πόρτες που προσεύχονται ν’ ανοίξουν ξανά
μπροστά μου δρόμοι που βιάζονται να κλείσουν
κι ανάμεσά τους μια άγρια πεινασμένη στιγμή
που περιμένει πληρωμή
από μια άδεια καρδιά κι από ένα άδειο κορμί
Πίσω μου άηχες κραυγές συμφωνημένη σιωπή
μπρος μου λυγμοί που αρνιούνται να ξεσπάσουν
κι ανάμεσά τους μια άγρια πεινασμένη στιγμή
που περιμένει πληρωμή
από μια άδεια καρδιά κι από ένα άδειο κορμί
The last dance might be your last chance
Over your shoulder you turn and you glance
They walk past still no one has asked
Feeling much older the evening has crashed
Don’t surrender don’t you cry
Another lonely night you’ve had enough
Another lonely night is one too much
Another lonely night you might just give up
The last dance you hide your empty hands
No one comes near you
the noise of the band
You can’t talk so you get up and walk
All that you’ve been through
it’s not like you thought
Ωσάν το έρμο, ωσάν το έρημο δεντρί
Ωσάν το έρημο δεντρί,
αχ, που 'ναι στα όρη απάνω
Παράπονο, αχ, που ?ναι στα όρη απάνω
Μ? αρέσει να ?μαι, μ? αρέσει να ?μαι αμοναχός
Μ? αρέσει να ?μαι αμοναχός,
Αχ, με τσι πολλούς δεν κάνω
Να σε χαρώ, αχ, με τσι πολλούς δεν κάνω
Κι άμας ο κόσμος, κι άμας ο κόσμος σκοτεινιά
Κι άμας ο κόσμος σκοτεινιά, αχ, γεμίζει, να γυρίζω
Παράπονο, αχ, γεμίζει, να γυρίζω
Χαΐνης και τση χα, χαΐνης και τση χαραυγής
Χαΐνης και τση χαραυγής, αχ, τσ’ ελπίδες να σκορπίζω
Να σε χαρώ, αχ, τσ’ ελπίδες να σκορπίζω.
As you look through my window
Deep into my room
At the tapestries all faded
Their vague and distant glories
Concealed in the gloom
The icy fingers of forgotten passions
Softly brushing my lips
At the tips of my primitive soul
As you look through my door
Deep into my room
Can you feel the mighty wall of power
Its waiting, waiting in the gloom
The distant shadows of forgotten champions
Those who live in me still
And will rise when we challenge and kill
Born again
Youll be born again
Look at this prince of evil
Fighting for your mind
Fighting all the priests of shame
For the thrust of my challenge is aimed
At the hearts of mutant gods
Who think were all the same
Theyre controlling our minds
And they use us for fortune and fame
As you look through my window
Deep into my room
At your future and freedom
The grey and plastic retards all floating in circles
And as you taste the fruits of new sensations
Softly brushing your lips
As we rise when we challenge and kill
Born again
Youll be born again
If you want to be king for a day
Just do what I say
Everybodys got to think like a hunter
Just search for your prey
Be alive through the night and the day
Just do it my way
[FONT=Verdana][SIZE=4]Cease this long, long rest
wake and risk a foul weakness to live
when it all comes down
watch the smoke and bury the past again
sit and think what will come
raise your fears and cast them all AWAY[/SIZE][/FONT]
This evening the moon dreams more lazily
As some fair woman, lost in cushions deep
With gentle hand caresses listlessly
The contour of her breasts before she sleeps
On velvet backs of avalanches soft
She often lies enraptured as she dies
And gazes on white visions aloft
Which like a blossoming to heaven rise
When sometimes on this globe, in indolence
She lets a secret tear drop down, by chance
A poet, set against oblivion
Takes in his hand this pale and furtive tear
This opal drop where rainbow hues appear
And hides it in his breast far from the sun
Μ’ενα ζευγαρι ματια φοβισμενα και με μια αστροφωτισμενη αγκαλια…πες μου λοιπον τι θα ειμαι εγω χωρις εσενα και σε ποια κολαση θα ξοδευτω ξανα;
Δεν εχω που να ταξιδεψω…δεν εχω ονειρα να τρεψω…εχω μια ζωη να ζησω…δωστε μου καπου να την ξοδεψω…βαρεθηκα ο πονος μου να γινεται λογια τριτων…
Ν’αγαπας μια ψυχη γι’αυτο που εκπεμπει,να κανεις ερωτα με ενα σωμα γι’αυτο που εκφραζει…να εισαι με καποιον οχι απλα για να υπαρχεις…αλλα για να δινεις οτι αισθανεσαι!!
Αν ημουνα τριανταφυλλο και με εκοβες…θα σου ελεγα “συγνωμη που σε τρυπησα” την ωρα που με σκοτωνες…
Να μπορουσα μοναχα να κραταγα καθε σου ανασα…σιγουρα θα ζεσταινα …ολοκληρο το συμπαν!!
Θελω να σε κραταω αγκαλια να μην μου φυγεις,να σε φιλαω μεχρι να κοιμηθεις…και να σε κοιταω μεχρι να ξημερωσει…
Οταν δεν μπορεις να εισαι με αυτον που θες…αναγκαζεσαι να ζεις με τ’ονειρο του…Η παρουσια του γινεται αναγκη…η απουσια του λιγμος…
και αυτος λειπει…μην χαθεις…σε παρακαλω…!
ΑΝ ηξερες τι αξιζουνε τα ματια σου για μενα…δεν θα με ρωταγες γιατι σε κοιταω…
Στις μοναξιας το ατελειωτο ταξιδι…ελα σαν φως με ενα φιλι και με ενα χαδι…να πιω μια σταλα απο την γλυκα των φιλιων σου…να δω
τον κοσμο απο το χρωμμα των ματιων σου…
Οταν πεφτουνε τα αστερια ειναι ομορφα σαν τα ματια σου…γιατι η ομορφια των ματιων σου δεν ειναι αυτο που θελεις να δειξεις…αλλα αυτο που δεν μπορεις να κρυψεις…!!
Εκει που τ’ονειρο ενωνεται με την πραγματικοτητα…θα ερθω και αυτο το βραδυ για να σε παρω να περπατησουμε στα πιο ομορφα λειβαδια…καληνυχτα αγαπη μου…!
[B]When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they’d be singing so happily,
Joyfully, playfully watching me.
But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,
Logical, responsible, practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
Clinical, intellectual, cynical.
There are times when all the worlds asleep,
The questions run too deep
For such a simple man.
Wont you please, please tell me what weve learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am.
Now watch what you say or they’ll be calling you a radical,
Liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Wont you sign up your name, wed like to feel you’re
Acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable!
At night, when all the worlds asleep,
The questions run so deep
For such a simple man.
Wont you please, please tell me what we’ve learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am.[/B]
