Όταν μιλούν οι στίχοι

Στίχοι: Μάνος Ξυδούς
Μουσική: Ηλίας Μακρίδης


Έξω σωπαίνει ο καιρός και καλοδέχεται,
μια υποψία από χιόνι σ' άδειο δρόμο.
Από το τζάμι έξω βλέπεις κ ονειρεύεσαι,
αυτή τη νύχτα που σταμάτησε ο χρόνος.

Είναι Χριστούγεννα ξανά και όλοι χαίρονται,
βλέπουν το δέντρο με τα φώτα στολισμένο.
Στέκουν μπροστά του αμίλητοι και σκέφτονται,
ένα τραγούδι τόσους μήνες ξεχασμένο.

Θα είσαι εδώ, θα είσαι εδώ,
ίσως μονάχα για μια νύχτα,
αλλά θα είσαι εδώ, θα είσαι εδώ.

Ο στρατιώτης με το τύμπανο στα χέρια του,
πετάει ψηλά τη μολυβένια τη στολή του.
παίρνει ζωή, στέκεται στα πόδια του,
και ψιθυρίζει ένα τραγούδι απ' τη ψυχή του.


..Φέτος όμως πατέρα, θα είσαι κοντά στον δικό σου πατέρα..

 

......

Once upon a time there was a girl
In her early years she had to learn
How to grow up living in a war that she called home
Never knew just where to turn for shelter from the storm
Hurt me to see the pain across my mother's face
Every time my father's fist would put her in her place
Hearing all the yelling, I would cry up in my room
Hoping it would be over soon

Bruises fade father, but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so afraid
Strength is my mother for all the love she gave
And every morning that I wake I look back at yesterday
And I'm okay

I often wonder why I've carried all this guilt
When it's you that helped me put up all these walls I've built
Shadows stir at night through a crack in the door
The echo of a broken child screaming "please, no more"
Daddy don't you understand the damage you have done?
For you it's just a memory, but for me it still lives on

Bruises fade father, but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so, so afraid
Strength is my mother for all the love she gave
Every morning that I wake I look back at yesterday

It's not so easy to forget
All the marks you left along her neck
When I was thrown against cold stairs
And everyday afraid to come home,
In fear of what I might see there

Bruises fade father but the pain remains the same
And I still remember how you kept me so afraid
Strength is my mother for all the love you gave
Every morning that I wake, I look back at yesterday
And I'm okay
Mm
I'm okay

 

Here I go,
Going down, down, down,
My mind is a blank,
My head is spinning around and around,
As I go deep into the funnel of love.

It's such a crazy, crazy feeling,
I get weak in the knees,
My poor old head is a reelin',
As I go deep into the funnel of love.

I tried and I tried, to run and hide,
I even tried to run away,
Ya just can't run from the funnel of love,
It's bound to get you someday.

It's such a crazy, crazy feeling,
I get weak in the knees,
My poor old head is a reelin',
As I go deep into the funnel of love.

I tried and I tried, to run and hide,
I even tried to run away,
You just can't run from the funnel of love,
It's bound to get ya someday.

Here I go, going down, down, down,
My mind is a blank,
My head is spinning around and around,
As I go deep into the funnel of love...

 

Somebody tell me
What has this man got
He makes me feel
What I don't wanna feel

Somebody tell me
What has this man got
He makes me give
What I don't wanna give

On solid ground
I feel myself sinkin' fast
I grab a hold
But I don't think it's gonna last

I'm slowly losin' my ground
Slowly sinkin' down
Trapped by this thing they call love
Oh baby

(Hooked on this thing called love)
(Hooked on this thing called love)

Somebody tell me
What has this man got
He makes me cry
Lord, I don't wanna cry

Somebody tell me
What has this man got
He makes me lie
When I don't wanna lie

He calls me up
And I tell 'em to say that I'm not in
Then I cry all night
If he doesn't call again

I'm slowly losin' my ground
Slowly sinkin' down
Trapped by this thing they call love
Oh baby
- Interlude -

I'm slowly losin' my ground
Slowly sinkin' down
Trapped by this thing they call love
Oh baby

I'm trapped
(Hooked on this thing called love)
I can't help myself

I'm hooked on you baby
(Hooked on this thing called love)
I just can't help it

I can never be happy
(Hooked on this thing called love)
When there's no one else

Oh baby, I love you...

@margarita_nikolayevna I love you sooooooo.... 

 

Αμοιβαίο ως γνωστόν
     

 

 I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight

Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down

Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
"Remember when we used to play?"

Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, I used to shoot you down

Music played and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang

Now he's gone, I don't know why
And 'till this day, sometimes I cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie

Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down 

 

When your legs don't work like they used to before
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of Μy love?
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?




And i'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Well, me - i fall in love with You every single day
And i just wanna tell You i am




So honey now
Take Me into your loving arms
Kiss Me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on My beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
Maybe W/we found love right where W/we are




'Cause Honey Your soul could never grow old, it's evergreen
And, Your smile's forever in my mind and memory

Take me into Your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place Your head on my beating heart
Thinking out loud
Maybe W/we found love right where W/we are...
     

 

Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There's always some reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day

I need some distraction
Or a beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
Let me be empty
Oh and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
The storm keeps on twisting
Keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack

It don't make no difference
Escaping one last time
It's easier to believe
In this sweet madness
Oh this glorious sadness
That brings me to my knees

In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

 

Oh oh baby
Yeah, oh oh

If I believe in love and you believe in love
Then we can be in love somehow
If you want the best for us
Like I want the best for us
Then we gotta learn to trust right now

Don’t let this effort go to waste
Put our all in it
Don’t want to be left with the questions, why
Let’s be honest with ourselves
Did we really come this far
Just to watch it go down the drain?

Yeah, sometimes the heart what's invisible to the eye
All you gotta do is listen to your deepest feelings
They don't ever lie
Well giving up is immature
There's so much more to live for
That I want to see us together now
Cause we’re strong enough to endure, woah

If I believe in love and you believe in love
Then we can be in love, somehow
If you want the best for us
Like I want the best for us
Then we got to learn to trust right now

Growing pains come along with these changes
Some people get closer some people separate, yeah
Don’t think we should separate
And we both adore one another
You’re a dream come true
We should start off brand new
That’s what we ought to do
Yeah

Yeah, sometimes the heart what's invisible to the eye
All you gotta do is listen to your deepest feelings
They don't ever lie
Well giving up is immature
There's so much more to live for
That I want to see us together now
Cause we’re strong enough to endure, woah

If I believe in love and you believe in love
Then we can be in love somehow
If you want the best for us
Like I want the best for us
Then we gotta learn to trust right now

Trust me right now
Yeah, yeah, yeah-ah-ah-ah
Oh, we gotta learn to trust right now
Yeah, yeah, yeah-ah-ah-ah
Girl you gotta learn to trust me right now
Hey, hey, yeah
If I believe in love and you believe in love
Then we can be in love somehow
If you want the best for us
I got the best for us
We gotta learn to trust
We gotta learn to trust
Yeah, woah woah

ΤΟ RAP ΤΗΣ ΠΛΑΝΗΣ

Ζήσε
Μέσα στον κόσμο που σκοτώνει τα όνειρά σου
Σβήσε
Αυτά που πόθησες κι αρνήθηκε η καρδιά σου
Γράψε
Σ’ όλα τα σχήματα το σήμερα, το τώρα
Κάψε
Όλα τα πρέπει που στοιχειώσανε τη χώρα

Η ζωή είναι ένα ψέμα
Κι εσύ με την αλήθεια σου χτίζεις τη φυλακή σου
Η ζωή είναι ένα βλέμμα
Κι εσύ απ’ την οθόνη σου κοιτάζεις τη ζωή σου

Έλα
Πάρε τα λόγια μου και δωσ' μου τη φωνή σου
Γέλα
Μ’ αυτούς που βάζουνε στο ζύγι τη ζωή σου
Μίλα
Αποφασίζουνε χωρίς να σε ρωτήσουν
Φίλα
Αυτά τα χείλη που ματώνουν για να ζήσουν

Η ζωή είναι ένα τραύμα
Κι εσύ ζητάς τη γιατρειά σε ξένες αγκαλιές
Η ζωή είναι ένα θαύμα
Κι εσύ γυρεύεις το αύριο στ’ απόνερα του χτες

 

He returns from his mixed-up memories to the passage he was previously stuck in. This time he discovers a long carpeted corridor.

There is lambswool under my naked feet.
The wool is soft and warm,
- gives off some kind of heat.
A salamander scurries into flame to be destroyed.
Imaginary creatures are trapped in birth on celluloid.
The fleas cling to the golden fleece,
Hoping they'll find peace.
Each thought and gesture are caught in celluloid.
There's no hiding in my memory.
There's no room to avoid.

The walls are painted in red ochre and are marked by strange insignia, some looking like a bulls-eye, others of birds and boats. Further down the corridor, he can see some people; all kneeling. With broken sighs and murmurs they struggle, in their slow motion to move towards a wooden door at the end. Having seen only the inanimate bodies in the Grand Parade of Lifeless Packaging, Rael rushes to talk to them.

The crawlers cover the floor in the red ochre corridor.
For my second sight of people, they've more lifeblood than before.
They're moving in time to a heavy wooden door,
Where the needle's eye is winking, closing in on the poor.
The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
"We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out."

"What's going on?" he cries to a muttering monk, who conceals a yawn and replies "It's a long time yet before the dawn." A sphinx-like crawler calls his name saying "Don't ask him, the monk is drunk. Each one of us is trying to reach the top of the stairs, a way out will await us there." Not asking how he can move freely, our hero goes boldly through the door. Behind a table loaded with food, is a spiral staircase going up into the ceiling.

There's only one direction in the faces that I see;
It's upward to the ceiling, where the chamber's said to be.
Like the forest fight for sunlight, that takes root in every tree.
They are pulled up by the magnet, believing they're free.
The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
"We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out."

Mild mannered supermen are held in kryptonite,
And the wise and foolish virgins giggle with their bodies glowing
bright.
Through THE door a harvest feast is lit by candlelight;
It's the bottom of a staircase that spirals out of sight.
The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
"We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out."

The porcelain mannikin with shattered skin fears attack.
The eager pack lift up their pitchers - they carry all they lack.
The liquid has congealed, which has seeped out through the crack,
And the tickler takes his stickleback.
The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
"We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out
We've got to get in to get out."

 

@peleas δεν ξέρεις πόσο σ' ευχαριστώ! Είχα χρόνια να σκεφτώ, έστω, αυτό το τραγούδι.
Και τις αναμνήσεις γύρω του.
Τέλειο τραγούδι για Σάββατο απόγευμα.

(και κάπως έτσι βγαίνουν στη φόρα οι ηλικίες   )
