Comfortably Numb

Hello.
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone home?

Come on, now.
I hear youre feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain,
Get you on your feet again.

Relax.
I need some information first.
Just the basic facts:
Can you show me where it hurts?

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I got that feeling once again.
I cant explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.

Ok.
Just a little pinprick. [ping]
Therell be no more --aaaaaahhhhh!
But you may feel a little sick.

Can you stand up?
I do believe its working. good.
Thatll keep you going for the show.
Come on its time to go.

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child is grown, the dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.


A lot of pain, a lot of pills, nothing is getting better, holidays on the bed, heating up with fever... How nice and lovely!!!

Am Fenster

Einmal wissen dies bleibt für immer
Ist nicht Rausch der schon die Nacht verklagt
Ist nicht Farbenschmelz noch Kerzenschimmer
Von dem Grau des Morgens längst verjagt

Einmal fassen tief im Blute fühlen
Dies ist mein und es ist nur durch dich
Nicht die Stirne mehr am Fenster kühlen
Dran ein Nebel schwer vorüber strich

Einmal fassen tief im Blute fühlen
Dies ist mein und es ist nur durch dich
Klagt ein Vogel, ach auch mein Gefieder
Näßt der Regen flieg ich durch die Welt

Flieg ich durch die Welt

More









by Mark Osborne, music by New Order - Elegia...


The Academy-Award nominated animated short-film tells the story of a
lonely inventor, whose colorless existence is brightened only by dreams
of the carefree bliss of his youth.

By
day, he is trapped in a dehumanizing job in a joyless world. But by
night, he tinkers away on a visionary invention, desperate to translate
his inspiration into something meaningful.

When his invention is
complete, it will change the way people see the world. But he will find
that success comes at a high price, as it changes himself, as well.

Enjoy!!!

Not now John

Fuck all that we've got to get on with these
Gotta compete with the wily Japanese.
There's too many home fires burning
And not enough trees.
So fuck all that
We've go to get on with these.

(Gotta get on with these!)

Can't stop
Lose job
Mind gone
Silicon
Stroll on
What bomb?
Get away
Pay day
Make hay
Break down
Need fix
Big six
Click click
Hold on
Oh no
Bingo! (Bingo!)

Make 'em laugh.
Make 'em cry.
Make 'em dance in the aisles.
Make 'em pay.
Make 'em stay.
Make 'em feel ok.

Not now John
We've gotta get on with the film show.
Hollywood waits at the end of the rainbow
Who cares what it's about
As long as the kids go?
So, Not now John
We've gotta get on with the show.

(ooooo, Noooo!, Gotta get on, Gotta get on, Gotta get on)

Hang on John I've got to get on with this.
I don't know what it is
But it fits on here like Hssss
Come at the end of the shift
We'll go and get pissed.
But not now John
I've got to get on with this.

Hold on John
I think there's something good on.
I used to read books but.....
It could be the news
Or some other amusement
Or it could be reusable shows.

Fuck all that we've got to get on with these
Gotta compete with the wily Japanese.
No need to worry about the Vietnamese.
Got to bring the Russian Bear to his knees.
Well, maybe not the Russian Bear
Maybe the Swedes.
We showed Argentina
Now let's go and show these.
Make us feel tough
And wouldn't Maggie be pleased?
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah!

Whooh!

One! Two! Three! Four!
(Not now John we've gotta get on)

"scusi dov'è il bar
(What?)
se para collo pou eine toe bar
s'il vous plait ou est le bar
(...say it in English!...)
oi, where's the fucking bar John?
(Oh, now you're talking!)"
Oh! Rule Britannia! Britannia rules the day
Down!
Go, Maggie!
Hammer, Hammer, Hammer, Hammer, now!

Enter Sandman...

Say your prayers little one
Dont forget, my son
To include everyone

Tuck you in, warm within
Keep you free from sin
Till the sandman he comes

Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight

Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
Off to never never land

Somethings wrong, shut the light
Heavy thoughts tonight
And they arent of snow white

Dreams of war, dreams of liars
Dreams of dragons fire
And of things that will bite

Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight

Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
Off to never never land

Now I lay me down to sleep
Pray the lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake
Pray the lord my soul to take

Hush little baby, dont say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
Its just the beast under your bed,
In your closet, in your head

Exit light
Enter night
Grain of sand

Exit light
Enter night
Take my hand
Were off to never never land

Pigs on the wing...

If you didn't care what happened to me,
And I didn't care for you,
We would zig zag our way through the boredom and pain
Occasionally glancing up through the rain.
Wondering which of the buggars to blame
And watching for pigs on the wing.

You know that I care what happens to you,
And I know that you care for me.
So I don't feel alone,
Or the weight of the stone,
Now that I've found somewhere safe
To bury my bone.
And any fool knows a dog needs a home,
A shelter from pigs on the wing.

Locomotive Breath

In the shuffling madness
of the locomotive breath,
runs the all-time loser,
headlong to his death.
He feels the piston scraping --
steam breaking on his brow --
old Charlie stole the handle and
the train won't stop going --
no way to slow down.
He sees his children jumping off
at the stations -- one by one.
His woman and his best friend --
in bed and having fun.
He's crawling down the corridor
on his hands and knees --
old Charlie stole the handle and
the train won't stop going --
no way to slow down.
He hears the silence howling --
catches angels as they fall.
And the all-time winner
has got him by the balls.
He picks up Gideons Bible --
open at page one --
old Charlie stole the handle and
the train won't stop going --
no way to slow down.

Watching over you...

I'm half a dream away
when it's all too bad
you can count on that
in the darkest place
there'll be always a trace
drive down this windin' street
when you go for broke
i just wish and hope
that the luck you seek
is the luck that you need

uuuuuhh when things just fall apart
uuuuuhh when any cure is hard to find
just keep in mind

all the time there's a guidin' light
and it's not gonna fade
at your side forevermore
watchin' over your way
through the night
and the desperate days
at the end of a shade
there's a light forever and ever
and ever and ever to stay
watchin' over your way

try - try to fight the cold
when surrender's near
something will appear
waitin' at the road
to help you carry the load

uuuuuhh when things just fall apart
uuuuuhh when any cure is hard to find
just keep in mind

all the time there's a guidin' light
and it's not gonna fade
at your side forevermore
watchin' over your way
through the night
and the desperate days
at the end of a shade
there's a light forever and ever
and ever and ever to stay
watchin' over your way

it's there whatever you do
watchin' over you

In the air tonight...

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
Ive been waiting for this moment, all my life, oh lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord

Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
Ive seen your face before my friend
But I dont know if you know who I am
Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off the grin, I know where youve been
Its all been a pack of lies

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
Ive been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord
And Ive been waiting for this moment all my life, oh lord, oh lord

Well I remember, I remember dont worry
How could I ever forget, its the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence up, no you dont fool me
The hurt doesnt show; but the pain still grows
Its no stranger to you or me

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord...

Tired of being sorry...

I don't know why
You want to follow me tonight
When the rest of the world
With whom I've crossed and I've quarreled
Let's me down so
For a thousand reasons that I know
To share forever the unrest
With all the demons I possess
Beneath the silver moon

Maybe you were right
But baby I was lonely
I don't want to fight
I'm tired of being sorry

Chandler and Van Nuys
With all the vampires and their brides
We're all bloodless and blind
And longing for a life
Beyond the silver moon

Maybe you were right
But baby I was lonely
I don't want to fight
I'm tired of being sorry
I'm standing in the street
Crying out for you
No one sees me
But the silver moon

So far away - so outer space
I've trashed myself - I've lost my way
I've got to get to you

Coming home...


Ταξιδεύοντας στο απόλυτο γαλάζιο του Αιγαίου, επιστρέφοντας στη βάση, μετά από μια υπέροχη βδομάδα μακριά από την καθημερινότητα, ο Ήλιος αγκαλιάζει τη Θάλασσα και χάνεται στα βάθη της... Και αυτή η μαγική στιγμή μου δίνεται απλόχερα για απόλαυση...
Κάτι τόσο κοινό που λίγες φορές καθόμαστε και το απολαμβάνουμε... Ας τις κάνουμε περισσότερες ;-)

Henry Lee

Get down, get down, little Henry Lee
And stay all night with me
You won't find a girl in this damn world
That will compare with me
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
I can't get down and I won't get down
And stay all night with thee
For the girl I have in that merry green land
I love far better than thee
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
She leaned herself against a fence
Just for a kiss or two
And with a little pen-knife held in her hand
She plugged him through and through
And the wind did roar and the wind did moan
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
Come take him by his lilly-white hands
Come take him by his feet
And throw him in this deep deep well
Which is more than one hundred feet
And the wind did howl and the wind did blow
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee
Lie there, lie there, little Henry Lee
Till the flesh drops from your bones
For the girl you have in that merry green land
Can wait forever for you to come home
And the wind did howl and the wind did moan
La la la la la
La la la la lee
A little bird lit down on Henry Lee

Moondance

Well, its a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
neath the cover of october skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And Im trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the nights magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush

Can I just have one a more moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love

Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I cant wait til the morning has come
And I know that the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that youre never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you cant hide

One more moondance with you in the moonlight
On a magic night
La, la, la, la in the moonlight
On a magic night
Cant I just have one more dance with you my love

Meds...

I was alone, Falling free,
Trying my best not to forget
What happened to us,
What happened to me,
What happened as I let it slip.

I was confused by the powers that be,
Forgetting names and faces.
Passersby were looking at me
As if they could erase it

Baby did you forget to take your meds?
Baby did you forget to take your meds?

I was alone,
Staring over the ledge,
Trying my best not to forget
All manner of joy
All manner of glee
And our one heroic pledge

How it mattered to us,
How it mattered to me,
And the consequences

I was confused,
By the birds and the bees
Forgetting if I meant it

Baby did you forget to take your meds?
Baby did you forget to take your meds?
Baby did you forget to take your meds?
Baby did you forget to take your meds?

And the Sex and the drugs and the complications
And the Sex and the drugs and the complications
And the Sex and the drugs and the complications
And the Sex and the drugs and the complications

Baby did you forget to take your meds?
Baby did you forget to take your meds?
Baby did you forget to take your meds?
Baby did you forget to take your meds?
Baby did you forget to take your meds?
Baby did you forget to take your meds?

I was alone,
Falling free,
Trying my best not to forget

Welcome to the machine...

Welcome my son, welcome to the machine.
Where have you been? It's alright we know where you've been.
You've been in the pipeline, filling in time,
provided with toys and Scouting for Boys.
You bought a guitar to punish your ma,
And you didn't like school, and you know you're nobody's fool,
So welcome to the machine.
Welcome my son, welcome to the machine.
What did you dream? It's alright we told you what to dream.
You dreamed of a big star, he played a mean guitar,
He always ate in the Steak Bar. He loved to drive in his Jaguar.
So welcome to the machine.

...don't let anyone tell you what to dream!!!!! And of course, remember to dream...

Dancing in the moonlight

When i passed you in the doorway
You took me with a glance
I should have took that last bus home
But i asked you for a dance

Now we go steady to the pictures
I always get chocolate stains on my pants
My father he's going crazy
Say's i'm living in a trance

But i'm dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight
It's alright, alright
Dancing in the moonlight
On the long hot summer night

It's three o'clock in the morning
And i'm on the streets again
I disobeyed another warning
I should have been in by ten

Now i won't get out until sunday
I'll have to say i stayed with friends
But it's a habit worth forming
If it means to justify the end

Για την Αμαλία

Καλό ταξίδι...


ΓΙΑ ΤΗΝ ΑΜΑΛΙΑ

«Ο ασθενής έχει το δικαίωμα του σεβασμού του προσώπου του και της ανθρώπινης αξιοπρέπειάς του»

(σύμφωνα με τις διατάξεις του άρθρου 47 του Ν. 2071/ 1992)

«Να γίνουν εξαίρεση οι αλμπάνηδες ρε παιδιά, όχι ο κανόνας...»

(Αμαλία Καλυβίνου, 1977-2007)

Από την ηλικία των οκτώ ετών, η Αμαλία ξεκίνησε να πονάει. Παρά τις συνεχείς επισκέψεις της σε γιατρούς και νοσοκομεία, κανένας δεν κατάφερε να διαγνώσει εγκαίρως το καλοήθες νευρίνωμα στο πόδι της. Δεκαεπτά χρόνια αργότερα, η Αμαλία έμαθε ότι το νευρίνωμα είχε πια μεταλλαχθεί σε κακόηθες νεόπλασμα.

Για τα επόμενα πέντε χρόνια η Αμαλία είχε να παλέψει όχι μόνο με τον καρκίνο και τον ακρωτηριασμό, αλλά και με την παθογένεια ενός Εθνικού Συστήματος Υγείας που επιλέγει να κλείνει τα μάτια στα φακελάκια κι επιμένει να κωλυσιεργεί με παράλογες γραφειοκρατικές διαδικασίες. Εκτός από τις ακτινοβολίες και τη χημειοθεραπεία, η Αμαλία είχε να αντιμετωπίσει την οικονομική εκμετάλλευση από γιατρούς που στάθηκαν απέναντί της και όχι δίπλα της. Πέρα από τον πόνο, είχε να υπομείνει την απληστία των ιδιωτικών κλινικών και την ταλαιπωρία στις ουρές των ασφαλιστικών ταμείων για μία σφραγίδα.

Η Αμαλία άφησε την τελευταία της πνοή την Παρασκευή 25 Μαΐου 2007. Ήταν μόλις 30 ετών.

Πριν φύγει, πρόλαβε να καταγράψει την εμπειρία της και να τη μοιραστεί μαζί μας μέσα από το διαδικτυακό της ημερολόγιο.

Στην ηλεκτρονική διεύθυνση http://fakellaki.blogspot.com, η νεαρή φιλόλογος κατήγγειλε επώνυμα τους γιατρούς που αναγκάστηκε να δωροδοκήσει, επαινώντας παράλληλα εκείνους που επέλεξαν να τιμήσουν τον Όρκο του Ιπποκράτη. Η μαρτυρία της συγκίνησε χιλιάδες ανθρώπους, που της στάθηκαν συμπαραστάτες στον άνισο αγώνα της μέχρι το τέλος.

«Ο στόχος της Αμαλίας ήταν να πει την ιστορία της, ώστε μέσα απ' αυτήν να αφυπνίσει όσο το δυνατόν περισσότερους ανθρώπους και συνειδήσεις. Κυρίως ήθελε να δείξει ότι υπάρχουν τρόποι αντίστασης στην αυθαιρεσία και την εξουσία των ασυνείδητων και ανάλγητων γιατρών, αλλά και των γραφειοκρατών υπαλλήλων του συστήματος υγείας»

(Δικαία Τσαβαρή και Γεωργία Καλυβίνου - μητέρα και αδελφή της Αμαλίας)

Σύμφωνα με τις διατάξεις του άρθρου 77 του Ν. 2071/1992, θεωρείται πειθαρχικό παράπτωμα για τους γιατρούς του Ε.Σ.Υ:

«Η δωροληψία και ιδίως η λήψη αμοιβής και η αποδοχή οποιασδήποτε άλλης περιουσιακής παροχής, για την προσφορά οποιασδήποτε ιατρικής υπηρεσίας»

Η Αμαλία Καλυβίνου αγωνίστηκε για πράγματα που θεωρούνται αυτονόητα σε ένα σύγχρονο ευρωπαϊκό κράτος. Δυστυχώς δεν είναι και τόσο αυτονόητα στην Ελλάδα. Συνεχίζοντας την προσπάθεια που ξεκίνησε η Αμαλία, διαμαρτυρόμαστε δημόσια και απαιτούμε:

* ΝΑ ΛΗΦΘΟΥΝ ΑΜΕΣΑ ΜΕΤΡΑ ΑΠΟ ΤΗΝ ΠΟΛΙΤΕΙΑ ΩΣΤΕ ΝΑ ΣΤΑΜΑΤΗΣΟΥΝ ΤΑ ΦΑΚΕΛΑΚΙΑ ΚΑΙ Η ΑΝΙΣΟΤΗΤΑ ΠΟΥ ΕΠΙΦΕΡΟΥΝ ΣΤΗΝ ΑΝΤΙΜΕΤΩΠΙΣΗ ΤΩΝ ΑΣΘΕΝΩΝ

* ΝΑ ΓΙΝΕΙ ΠΙΟ ΕΥΕΛΙΚΤΟΣ Ο ΚΡΑΤΙΚΟΣ ΜΗΧΑΝΙΣΜΟΣ ΩΣΤΕ ΝΑ ΜΗ ΘΡΗΝΗΣΟΥΜΕ ΞΑΝΑ ΘΥΜΑΤΑ ΤΩΝ ΧΡΟΝΟΒΟΡΩΝ ΓΡΑΦΕΙΟΚΡΑΤΙΚΩΝ ΔΙΑΔΙΚΑΣΙΩΝ

* ΝΑ ΕΠΙΒΛΗΘΕΙ ΑΥΣΤΗΡΟΤΕΡΟΣ ΕΛΕΓΧΟΣ ΣΤΗ ΔΙΑΠΛΟΚΗ ΦΑΡΜΑΚΕΥΤΙΚΩΝ ΕΤΑΙΡΕΙΩΝ ΚΑΙ ΙΑΤΡΙΚΟΥ ΚΑΤΕΣΤΗΜΕΝΟΥ

* ΝΑ ΑΞΙΟΠΟΙΗΘΟΥΝ ΟΙ ΑΝΕΚΜΕΤΑΛΛΕΥΤΕΣ ΝΟΣΟΚΟΜΕΙΑΚΕΣ ΥΠΟΔΟΜΕΣ ΚΑΙ ΝΑ ΥΠΑΡΞΕΙ ΣΥΝΕΧΗΣ ΚΑΙ ΑΡΤΙΑ ΕΠΙΣΤΗΜΟΝΙΚΗ ΚΑΤΑΡΤΙΣΗ ΓΙΑ ΟΛΟΥΣ ΤΟΥΣ ΓΙΑΤΡΟΥΣ ΚΑΙ ΤΟΥΣ ΝΟΣΗΛΕΥΤΕΣ ΤΟΥ Ε.Σ.Υ.

* ΝΑ ΚΑΘΙΕΡΩΘΕΙ Η ΨΗΦΙΟΠΟΙΗΣΗ ΤΟΥ ΙΑΤΡΙΚΟΥ ΦΑΚΕΛΟΥ ΤΟΥ ΑΣΘΕΝΟΥΣ ΠΑΝΕΛΛΗΝΙΩΣ, ΩΣΤΕ ΝΑ ΕΠΙΣΠΕΥΔΕΤΑΙ Η ΣΩΣΤΗ ΔΙΑΓΝΩΣΗ ΚΑΙ ΘΕΡΑΠΕΙΑ

ΑΣ ΠΑΨΕΙ ΠΛΕΟΝ Η ΥΠΟΚΡΙΣΙΑ ΤΩΝ ΚΥΒΕΡΝΩΝΤΩΝ, ΠΟΥ ΠΡΟΤΙΜΟΥΝ ΝΑ ΛΑΔΩΝΟΝΤΑΙ ΟΙ ΓΙΑΤΡΟΙ ΑΠΟ ΤΟΥΣ ΑΣΘΕΝΕΙΣ ΠΑΡΑ ΝΑ ΑΜΕΙΒΟΝΤΑΙ ΑΞΙΟΠΡΕΠΩΣ ΑΠΟ ΤΟ ΚΡΑΤΟΣ.

* ΟΧΙ ΑΛΛΑ ΦΑΚΕΛΑΚΙΑ

* ΟΧΙ ΑΛΛΗ ΓΡΑΦΕΙΟΚΡΑΤΙΑ

* ΟΧΙ ΑΛΛΟΣ ΕΜΠΑΙΓΜΟΣ

ΔΙΚΑΙΟΥΜΑΣΤΕ ΔΩΡΕΑΝ ΚΑΙ ΑΠΟΤΕΛΕΣΜΑΤΙΚΗ ΠΕΡΙΘΑΛΨΗ. ΓΙΑ ΟΛΟΥΣ.

Την επόμενη φορά που θα χρειαστεί να δώσετε φακελάκι, μην το κάνετε. Προτιμήστε καλύτερα να κάνετε μια δωρεά. Η τελευταία επιθυμία της Αμαλίας ήταν η ενίσχυση της υπό ανέγερση Ογκολογικής Μονάδας Παίδων

(Σύλλογος Ελπίδα, τηλ: 210-7757153, e-mail: infο@elpida.org, λογαριασμός Εθνικής Τράπεζας: 080/480898-36, λογαριασμός Alphabank: 152-002-002-000-515. Θυμηθείτε να αναφέρετε ότι η δωρεά σας είναι "για την Αμαλία").

Lost in Hollywood

I'll wait here,
You're crazy,
Those vicious streets are filled with strays,
You should have never gone to Hollywood.

They find you,
Two time you,
Say your the best they've ever seen,
You should have never trusted Hollywood.

I wrote you,
And told you,
You were the biggest fish out here,
You should have never gone to Hollywood.

They take you,
And make you,
They look at you in disgusting ways,
You should never trusted Hollywood.

I was standing on the wall,
Feeling ten feet tall,
All you maggots smoking fags on Santa Monica Boulevard,
This is my front page,
This is my new age,
All you bitches put your hands in the air and wave them like you just don't care.

All you maggots smoking fags out there on Sunset Boulevard.

All you bitches put your hands in the air and wave them like you just don't care.

Phoney people come to pray,
Look at all of them beg to stay,
Phoney people come to pray.

Look at all of them beg to stay

Phoney people come to pray.

All you maggots smoking fags on Santa Monica Boulevard,
All you maggots smoking fags out there on Sunset Boulevard.
All you maggots smoking fags out there on Hollywood Boulevard.

You should have never trusted Hollywood.
You should have never gone to Hollywood.

All you bitches put your hands in the air and wave them like you just don't care.

You should have never trusted Hollywood.

Heard it last night on the way back home thanks to Kostis. Just replace Hollywood and Santa Monica Boulevard with whatever suits you, like Kolonaki kai Skoufa Boulevard... Wave them like you just don't care...

Never let go...

Crazy preachers of our doom
Telling us there is no room.
Not enough for all mankind
And the seas of time are running dry.
Don't they know it's a lie...

Man is born with the will to survive,
He'll not take no for an answer.
He will get by, somehow he'll try,
He won't take no, never let go, no...

I hear them talk about Kingdom Come,
I hear them discuss Armageddon...
They say the hour is getting late,
But I can still hear someone say,
This is not the way...

Subdivisions

Sprawling on the fringes of the city
In geometric order
An insulated border
In between the bright lights
And the far unlit unknown

Growing up it all seems so one-sided
Opinions all provided
The future pre-decided
Detached and subdivided
In the mass production zone

Nowhere is the dreamer
Or the misfit so alone

Subdivisions ---
In the high school halls
In the shopping malls
Conform or be cast out
Subdivisions ---
In the basement bars
In the backs of cars
Be cool or be cast out
Any escape might help to smooth
The unattractive truth
But the suburbs have no charms to soothe
The restless dreams of youth

Drawn like moths we drift into the city
The timeless old attraction
Cruising for the action
Lit up like a firefly
Just to feel the living night

Some will sell their dreams for small desires
Or lose the race to rats
Get caught in ticking traps
And start to dream of somewhere
To relax their restless flight

Somewhere out of a memory
Of lighted streets on quiet nights...

Behind Blue Eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you

No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

If I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
If I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

What else is there?

It was me on that road
But you couldn?t see me
Too many lights out, but nowhere near here

It was me on that road
Still you couldn?t see me
And then flashlights and explosions

Roads end getting nearer
We cover distance but not together

I am the storm I an the wonder
And the flashlights nightmares
And sudden explosions

I don?t know what more to ask for
I was given just one wish

It?s about you and the sun
A morning run
The story of my maker
What I have and what I ache for

I?ve got a golden ear
I cut and I spear
And what else is there

Roads and getting nearer
We cover distance still not together

If I am the storm if I am the wonder
Will I have a flashlights nightmares
And sudden explosions

There?s no room where I can go and
You?ve got secrets too

I don?t know what more to ask for
I was given just one wish

Tears in heaven....

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven
I'll find my way, through night and day
Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven

Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knee
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please
Begging please

Beyond the door
There's peace I'm sure.
And I know there'll be no more...
Tears in heaven

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven
Will it be the same
If I saw you in heaven
I must be strong, and carry on
Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven


Goodbye smilie face... you will always be remembered this way...

Planet Funk - Chase the sun


I'm flying away
Running like the wind
As I chase the sun
Up spinning around
Circles in my mind
Sailing over ground

Breathe...

Breathe, breathe in the air
Don't be afraid to care
Leave but don't leave me
Look around, choose your own ground

Long you'll live and high you'll fly
Smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be

Run, rabbit run
Dig that hole, forget the sun
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down it's time to dig another one

Long you'll live and high you'll fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race towards an early grave



The Rolling Stones - Mother's Little Helper

What a drag it is getting old
"Kids are different today,"
I hear ev'ry mother say
Mother needs something today to calm her down
And though she's not really ill
There's a little yellow pill
She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day

"Things are different today,"
I hear ev'ry mother say
Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag
So she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak
And goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
And two help her on her way, get her through her busy day

Doctor please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old

"Men just aren't the same today"
I hear ev'ry mother say
They just don't appreciate that you get tired
They're so hard to satisfy, You can tranquilize your mind
So go running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
And four help you through the night, help to minimize your plight

Doctor please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old

"Life's just much too hard today,"
I hear ev'ry mother say
The pusuit of happiness just seems a bore
And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose
No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
They just helped you on your way, through your busy dying day

Genesis - Land Of Confusion

I must have dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street

Now, did you read the news today?
They say the danger has gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight
They're burning into the night

There's too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And there's not much love to go around
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

Oh, superman, where are you now?
When everything's gone wrong somehow?
The men of steel, these men of power
Are losing control by the hour

This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go around
Tell me why this is a land of confusion

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

I remember long ago
When the sun was shining
And all the stars were bright all through the night
In the wake of this madness, as I held you tight
So long ago

I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know we'll never keep

There's too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And there's not much love to go round
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?

Now, this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for

This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to

Land of confusion... that what's my mind is... Confused by life, confused by people, confused by my and other's feelings...
Too many people, making too many problems, and there's not much love to go round...
I will keep dreaming for a better and shinier future...

The Smiths - How Soon Is Now

I am the son
and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does

I am the son
and the heir
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and the heir
of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does

There's a club if you'd like to go
you could meet somebody who really loves you
so you go, and you stand on your own
and you leave on your own
and you go home, and you cry
and you want to die

When you say it's gonna happen "now"
well, when exactly do you mean?
see I've already waited too long
and all my hope is gone

You shut your mouth
how can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does

The last two lines must be in everybody's mind... Don't be afraid to love someone... it will certainly pay you back ;-)

The Clash - London Calling

London calling to the faraway towns
Now war is declared - and battle come down
London calling to the underworld
Come out of the cupboard,you boys and girls
London calling, now don't look to us
Phoney Beatlemania has bitten the dust
London calling, see we ain't got no swing
'Cept for the reign of that truncheon thing

The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Meltdown expected, the wheat is growing thin
Engines stop running, but I have no fear
Cause London is burning and I, I live by the river

London calling to the imitation zone
Forget it, brother, you can go at it alone
London calling to the zombies of death
Quit holding out - and draw another breath
London calling - and I don't wanna shout
But while we were talking I saw you nodding out
London calling, see we ain't got no high
Except for that one with the yellowy eyes

The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Engines stop running, the wheat is growing thin
A nuclear era, but I have no fear
Cause London is drowning and I, I live by the river

Now get this
London calling, yes, I was there, too
An' you know what they said? Well, some of it was true!
London calling at the top of the dial
And after all this, won't you give me a smile?
London Calling

I never felt so much alike, like-a, like-a...

REM - The end of the world

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes,
an aeroplane - Lenny Bruce is not afraid.
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn,
world serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs.
Feed it off an aux speak,, grunt, no, strength,
The ladder starts to clatter with fear fight down height.
Wire in a fire, representing seven games, a government for hire and a combat site.
Left of west and coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck.
Team by team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped.
Look at that low playing!
Fine, then.
Uh oh, overflow, population, common food, but it'll do.
Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed dummy with the rapture and the revered and the right - right.
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty psyched.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign towers.
Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn.
Locking in, uniforming, book burning, blood letting.
Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate.
Light a candle, light a votive. Step down, step down.
Watch your heel crush, crushed. Uh-oh, this means no fear cavalier.
Renegade steer clear! A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies.
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) and I feel fine.
(I feel fine)

It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) and I feel fine.

The other night I dreamt of knives, continental drift divide. Mountains sit in a line
Leonard Bernstein. Leonid Brezhnev. Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs.
Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom!
You symbiotic, patriotic, slam book neck, right? Right.

It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone)
It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) and I feel fine.

Indeed... we are coming to an end... and to the dawn of a new era... Sci-Fi era with underground cities...
The warmest winter since the beginning of meteorological data keeping...
If that isn't terryfing, then what is??????
The earth is our home... Our biiiiiiig home...
Wake up... Stop Global Warming... Turn off the lights when possible, it's more romantic and cozy this way... Turn off the huge production of gases... (I know we can't do much as individuals....)... Turn the water knob on off when not using it... We don't have much to spare...

David Bowie - Lady Grinning Soul

She'll come, she'll go.
She'll lay belief on you
Skin sweet with musky oil
The lady from another grinning soul

Cologne she'll wear. Silver and Americard
She'll drive a beetle car
And beat you down at cool Canasta

And when the clothes are strewn
don't be afraid of the room
Touch the fullness of her breast.
Feel the love of her caress
She will be your living end

She'll come, she'll go.
She'll lay belief on you
But she won't stake her life on you
How can life become
her point of view

And when the clothes are strewn
don't be afraid of the room
Touch the fullness of her breast.
Feel the love of her caress
She will be your living end

Queen - Innuendo

While the sun hangs in the sky and the desert has sand
While the waves crash in the sea and meet the land
While theres a wind and the stars and the rainbow
Till the mountains crumble into the plain
Oh yes well keep on tryin
Tread that fine line
Oh well keep on tryin yeah
Just passing our time
While we live according to race, colour or creed
While we rule by blind madness and pure greed
Our lives dictated by tradition, superstition, false religion
Through the eons, and on and on
Oh yes well keep on tryin
Well tread that fine line
Oh well keep on tryin
Till the end of time
Till the end of time

Through the sorrow all through our splendour
Dont take offence at my innuendo

You can be anything you want to be
Just turn yourself into anything you think that you could ever be
Be free with your tempo, be free be free
Surrender your ego - be free, be free to yourself

Oooh, ooh -
If theres a God or any kind of justice under the sky
If theres a point, if theres a reason to live or die
If theres an answer to the questions we feel bound to ask
Show yourself - destroy our fears - release your mask
Oh yes well keep on trying
Hey tread that fine line
Yeah well keep on smiling yeah
And whatever will be - will be
Well just keep on trying
Well just keep on trying
Till the end of time

Always welcome the innuendos in my life... Sometimes it's the only way out of misery...
Well... we 'll keep on smiling...

Pink Floyd - Time

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but its sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in the relative way, but youre older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the english way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought Id something more to say

...waste your time... for yourself... not for others they don't deserve it...

Supremes - Aquarius

When the moon is in the seventh house
And jupiter aligns with mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars

This is the dawning of the age of aquarius
Age of aquarius
Aquarius
Aquarius

Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more lies and no derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the minds true liberation
Aquarius
Aquarius

Let the sunshine
Let the sunshine in
The sunshine in

Whenever there is sunshine... pursue it...

Chris Cornell - You know my name

If you take a life
Do you know what you'll give?
Odds are you won't like What it Is.

When the storm arrives
Would you be seen with me?
By the merciless eyes I've deceived

I've seen angels fall from blinding heights
But you yourself are nothing so divine
Just next in line

Arm yourself because no one else here will save you
The odds will betray you
And I will replace you
You can't deny the prize it may never fulfill you
It longs to kill you
Are you willing to die?
The coldest blood runs through my veins
You know my name

If you come inside
Things will not be the same
When you return to my eyes

And if you think you've won
You never saw me change
The game that we have been playing

I've seen diamonds cut through harder men
Then you yourself but if you must pretend
You may meet your end


Arm yourself because no one else here will save you
The odds will betray you
And I will replace you
You can't deny the prize it may never fulfill you
It longs to kill you
Are you willing to die?
The coldest blood runs through my veins

Try to hide your hand
Forget how to feel (forget how to feel)
Life is gone
With just a spin of the wheel (spin of the wheel)


Arm yourself because no one else here will save you
The odds will betray you
And I will replace you
You can't deny the prize it may never fulfill you
It longs to kill you
Are you willing to die?
The coldest blood runs through my veins
You know my name (You Know My Name)


You Know My Name (You Know My Name)
You Know My Name
You Know My Name
You Know My Name

A present from a friend...

True friends will always be friends... With no preconditions...
From Irene..

Thanks ;-)

Camel - Slow yourself down

They tell me you're searching for a new place,
They tell me tomorrow will have a true face.
They say that I don't understand,
When you speak of your summertime land -
Just slow yourself down, I'm coming along.
They tell me your past often hurt you,
And even your friends, they would desert you.
But now you are beginning to see,
The same things have happened to me -
Just slow yourself down, I'm coming along.
You tell me your dreams have been broken,
And not enough words have been spoken.
The time has come to see it through.
Slow down 'coz I'm coming with you -Α
Just slow yourself down, I'm coming along.

Sometimes we just need to see what's before our own eyes... Stop for a moment and think... So simple, but yet so difficult...
