My only question

Nothing last forever. Not the diamonds, not even stars. Could our feelings and memories last... even after life?

Pretend

Here strolls the blackened sky
With me, myself and I

Lets pretend we'll meet again
Pretend you knew me
Pretend you cared
Lets pretend we once kissed
With compassion
With heartfelt affection

Lets pretend we'll meet again
Lets just, lets just pretend
Pretend you're still... you're still my friend

Lets pretend we'll meet again
Pretend you knew me
Pretend you cared
Lets pretend we once kissed
With compassion

Alcanzame

Por siempre estarás en mi. Los errores que cometí en mi vida no pesan tanto como el de haberte dejado sin razones para quedarte. Hoy y siempre permanecerás. Hoy te recuerdo cómo siempre lo he hecho, cómo nunca he dejado de hacerlo.
Podría correr tras de ti una vez más pero ya me he cansado de correr tras es viento; tras una promesa que nunca cumplimos, un sueño de juventud que se desvanece cuándo la mirada empieza a empañarse por la realidad. Fuiste mi dulce juventud, mi más grande anhelo. Me mantuviste con vida cuando ya no había esperanza. Hoy recuerdo con amargura que nada es eterno; la ambición y el deseo son más poderosos que la mediocridad para algunos, no todos vivimos bajo una roca.
Ten suerte, y a pesar del rencor y el dolor no puedo dejar esos maravillosos días de verano a tu lado. Mi vida perdió un poco de brillo al apagarse tu luz. Hoy deseo saber que camino tomar, alguno que me saque de la tiniebla y me acerque a ti.
Tus sueños son sólo tuyos. Hoy y siempre serán tu fuerza. Yo no puedo volar o correr, jamás he podido, yo sólo puedo caminar a dónde quiera que sea necesario.
Algún día tal vez las sendas se volverán a unir y en ese momento sabremos qué fue lo que el tiempo le ofreció a cada quien: sabremos que nos tocó pagar y perder para ganar el futuro.
Si corres, no olvides mirar atrás para admirar cuán lejos te han llevado tus pasos. Hoy ya no llevas un lastre encima. Sólo el tiempo sabe a dónde termina tu camino.

Rain in Soho

No one knows where the lone wolf sleeps
No one sees the hidden treasure in the castle keep
No one learns the secret name
No one burns in the absent flame
No one broke D.B. Cooper's fall
No one hopes to hear the bagman call
Children piping in the main square
But no one's dancing
No one's dancing down there

The river goes where the water flows
But no one knows where the Batcave closed
The river goes where the water flows
But no one knows where the Batcave closed

No promise sweeter than a blood pact
Nothing harder to go through than a vanishing act
No morning colder than the first frost
No friends close than the ones we've lost
Nothing sharper than a serpent's tooth
Nothing harder than the gospel truth
Though you repent and don sackcloth and try to make nice
You can't cross the same river twice

The river goes where the water flows
But no one knows where the Batcave closed
The river goes where the water flows
But no one knows where the Batcave closed

There's a club where you'd like to go
You could meet someone who's lost like you
Revel in the darkness like a pair of open graves
Fumble through the fog for a season or two

No town more barren than our town
No haven safer than the one they tore down
No greater love than to lay my life down for a friend
No sweeter pleasure than to see the credits clear through to the end
No one knows where the lone wolf's gone
No one sees it camped out right there in the front lawn
We played for you but you would not sing
No one was going to get away with anything

The river goes where the water flows
But no one knows where the Batcave closed
The river goes where the water flows
But no one knows where the Batcave closed

We can't do anything for things that are already broken.

Oceanographer's Choice


Well, guy in a skeleton costume
Comes up to the guy in the Superman suit
Runs through him with a broadsword

I flip the television off
Bring all the bright lights up
Turn the radio up loud
I don't know why I'm so persuaded
That if I think things through
Long enough and hard enough
I'll somehow get to you
But then you came in
And we locked eyes
You kicked the ashtray over as we came toward each other
Stubbed my cigarette out against the west wall
Quickly lit another

Look at that
Would you look at that
We're throwing off sparks
What will I do when I don't have you to hold onto in the dark?

Yes, everybody's gonna need a witness
Everybody's gonna need a little backup incase the scene gets nasty
You throw the attic window open
And I throw myself all around you
And night comes to Tallahassee
I don't know why it's gotten harder
To keep myself away
I thought I'd finally beat the feeling back
It all came back today
And then we fell down
And we locked arms
We knocked the dresser over as we rolled across the floor
I don't mean it when I tell you
That I don't love you anymore

Look at that
Would you look at that
The way the ceiling starts to swerve
What will I do when I don't have you
When I finally get what I deserve

Dagger

The sunshine girl is sleeping
She falls and dreams alone
And me I am her dagger
Too numb to feel her pain

The world is full of noise, yeah
I hear it all the time
And me I am your dagger
You know I am your wound
I thought I heard you whisper:
"It happens all the time"
I thought I heard you whisper:
"It happens all the time"

She whispers while I'm sleeping
I love you when you smile
I didn't really lose you
I just lost it for a while

The world is full of noise, yeah
I hear it all the time
You know I am your dagger
You know I am your wound
I thought I heard you whisper:
"It happens all the time"
I thought I heard you whisper
"It happens all the time"
