Estranged - Guns'n'Roses


Guns'n'Roses - Estranged (Use your illusion II, 1991)

When you're talkin' to yourself
And nobody's home
You can fool yourself
You came in this world alone
(Alone)

So nobody ever told you baby
How it was gonna be
So what'll happen to you baby
Guess we'll have to wait and see
One, two

Old at heart but I'm only twenty eight
And I'm much too young
To let love break my heart
Young at heart but it's getting much too late
To find ourselves so far apart

I don't know how you're s'posed to find me lately
An what more could you ask from me
How could you say that I never needed you
When you took everything
Said you took everything from me

Young at heart an it gets so hard to wait
When no one I know can seem to help me now
Old at heart but I musn't hesitate
If I'm to find my own way out

Still talkin' to myself
And nobody's home
(Alone)

So nobody ever told us baby
How it was gonna be
So what'll happen to us baby
Guess we'll have to wait and see

When I find out all the reasons
Maybe I'll find another way
Find another day
With all the changing seasons of my life
Maybe I'll get it right next time
An now that you've been broken down
Got your head out of the clouds
You're back down on the ground

And you don't talk so loud
An you don't walk so proud
Any more, and what for

Well I jumped into the river
Too many times to make it home
I'm out here on my own, an drifting all alone
If it doesn't show give it time
To read between the lines

'Cause I see the storm getting closer
And the waves they get so high
Seems everything we've ever known's here
Why must it drift away and die

I'll never find anyone to replace you
Guess I'll have to make it through, this time - oh this time
Without you
I knew the storm was getting closer
And all my friends said I was high
But everything we've ever known's here
I never wanted it to die

The Clairvoyant - Iron Maiden


Iron Maiden - The Clairvoyant

Feel the sweat break on my brow
Is it me or is ir the shadows that are dancing on the walls
Is this a dream or is it now
Is this a vision or normality I see before my eyes

I wonder why I wonder how
That it seems the power's getting stronger every day
I feel a strength an inner fire
But I'm scared I won't be able to control it anymore

There's a time to live and a time to die
When it's time to meet the maker
There's a time to live but isn't it strange
That as soon as you're born you're dying

Just by looking through your eyes
He could see the future penetrating
Right in through your mind
See the truth and see your lies
But for all his power couldn't foresee his own demise

There's a time to live and a time to die
When it's time to meet the maker
There's a time to live but isn't it strange
That as soon as you're born you're dying...
... and reborn again?

This charming man - The Smiths


This Charming man - The Smiths

Punctured bicycle
On a hillside desolate
Will nature make a man of me yet ?

When in this charming car
This charming man

Why pamper life's complexity
When the leather runs smooth
On the passenger seat ?

I would go out tonight
But I haven't got a stitch to wear
This man said "it's gruesome
That someone so handsome should care"

Ah ! A jumped-up pantry boy
Who never knew his place
He said "return the ring"
He knows so much about these things
He knows so much about these things

I would go out tonight
But I haven't got a stitch to wear
This man said "it's gruesome
That someone so handsome should care"
La, la-la, la-la, la-la, this charming man ...
Oh, la-la, la-la, la-la, this charming man ...

Ah ! A jumped-up pantry boy
Who never knew his place
He said "return the ring"
He knows so much about these things
He knows so much about these things
He knows so much about these things

El Rompeolas - Loquillo


Loquillo - El Rompeolas (Morir en primavera, 1988)

Lunes, Martes, Miércoles,
mirando hacia el mar.
Es un buen lugar para irse a olvidar,
coches policías detrás la ciudad.
Ojalá aquella rubia me mire al pasar.

Tú chica puedes vivir
una vida de hogar,
búscate un marido con miedo a volar.
No hables de futuro,
es una ilusióncuando el rocanrol conquistó mi corazón.
No hables de futuro
es una ilusión
cuando el rocanrol conquistó mi corazón.

Jueves, Viernes, Sábado,
sentado junto al mar.
Es un buen lugar para irse a olvidar.
Dejé a mi familia junto al televisor.
En el rompeolas aún se huele el sol.

Tú chica puedes vivir
una vida de hogar,
búscate un marido con miedo a volar.
No hables de futuro,
es una ilusión
cuando el rocanrol conquistó mi corazón.
No hables de futuro
es una ilusión
cuando el rocanrol conquistó mi corazón.

Opio - Héroes del Silencio

Posiblemente la mejor canción de Héroes del Silencio...


Héroes del Silencio - Opio (Avalancha, 1995)

es el opio la flor de la pereza
hasta que llego a ser sólo existencia.
el humo de leche muge lento
extendiendo el sabor del universo.
el que nada hace nada teme
y de terrenal sabrás lo celeste
un oscuro derecho a la delicia
será un sueño o será mentira.

las cosas más triviales se vuelven fundamentales
eliminando los moldes del azar.
como se agita el viento sin alimento
escucha mi canto abierto de par en par.

es el opio la flor de la pereza
hasta que llego a ser sólo existencia.
el humo de leche muge lento
extendiendo el sabor del universo.
replegado en la madriguera
como un animal acosado
bajo el efecto de la adormidera
y el peso de mis pestañas.

las cosas más triviales se vuelven fundamentales
eliminando los moldes del azar.
como se agita el viento sin alimento
escucha mi canto abierto de par en par.

esquirlas de aire
arcano indrescifrable.
en el jardín de mis delicias
pertenezco a la brisa.
inhalo la niebla
que flota en el ganges
es aceite de incienso
nos servirá de consuelo.
