Lyrics

Leonard Cohen - "In My Secret Life"

I saw you this morning.
You were moving so fast.
Can’t seem to loosen my grip
On the past.
And I miss you so much.
There’s no one in sight.
And we’re still making love
In My Secret Life.

I smile when I’m angry.
I cheat and I lie.
I do what I have to do
To get by.
But I know what is wrong,
And I know what is right.
And I’d die for the truth
In My Secret Life.

Hold on, hold on, my brother.
My sister, hold on tight.
I finally got my orders.
I’ll be marching through the morning,
Marching through the night,
Moving cross the borders
Of My Secret Life.

Looked through the paper.
Makes you want to cry.
Nobody cares if the people
Live or die.
And the dealer wants you thinking
That it’s either black or white.
Thank G-d it’s not that simple
In My Secret Life.

I bite my lip.
I buy what I’m told:
From the latest hit,
To the wisdom of old.
But I’m always alone.
And my heart is like ice.
And it’s crowded and cold
In My Secret Life.

 

Cloud Cult, "Chemicals Collide" (aka το τραγούδι που ακούγεται στο τελευταίο σποτάκι της Aegean)

I was out paying close attention
Or was I lost inside my thoughts
These days it's hard to tell what's outside from what's in my mind
And oh god, it's beautiful
Insatiable
The way our chemicals collide

I was out catching up to tomorrow
Or was I caught up in the past
These days it's hard to tell what's out in front from what's behind
And oh god, it's unforgettable
Unpredictable
The way our chemicals collide

I was sleeping in the lilies
Or was I up all night
These days it's hard to tell what's half asleep from fully alive

We were loving like a landslide
Or were we in a fight
These days it's hard to tell what's right from wrong and wrong from right

And oh god, it's beautiful
Insatiable
The way our chemicals collide
And oh god, it's unforgettable
Unpredictable
The way our chemicals collide

 

Quite Rightly So
(Procol Harum)


For you (whose eyes were opened wide whilst mine refused to see)
I'm sore in need of saving grace. Be kind and humour me
I'm lost amidst a sea of wheat
where people speak but seldom meet
And grief and laughter, strange but true
Although they die, they seldom cry

An ode by any other name I know might read more sweet
Perhaps the sun will never shine upon my fiel dof wheat
But still in closing, let me say
for those too sick, too sick to see
though nothing shows, yes, someone knows
I wish that one was me




Whiter Shade Of Pale
(Procol Harum)


We skipped the light fandango
And turned cartwheels across the floor
Yeah, I was feeling kind of seasick
But the crowd called out for more, yeah, oh yeah
And the room was humming harder
And as the ceiling flew away
We called out for another drink, oh yeah
The waiter brought the tray

And so it was that later, yeah
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale

She said there is no reason
And the truth is plain to see
But I wandered through my playing cards
And I would not let her be, oh, oh yeah
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And oh, and my eyes were open
They might just as well have been closed

And so it was that later, oh
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale, oh yeah

Oh, and so it was, yeah, oh later
The miller told his tale
Yeah her face was kinda ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale, oh yeah


Το δεύτερο είναι από τα πιο όμορφα τραγούδια που έχω ακούσει  
Λίγο παλιό αλλά είμαι και κάποιας ηλικίας τελος πάντων.

 

Your heart is served cold
Your sights are set in perfect stone,
And when you go you go alone,
And when you stand you're on your own,

I wash the streets from your skin when you come home

We're nothing like friends,
You have no time to lend,
And if you're guilt then I'm the shame,
And if I'm hurt then you're the blame

You wash my trace from your skin and you leave again

Random laid plans, 40 days of one night stands,
And when you go you go alone
You walk the cross you made your own

I wash the streets from your skin when you come home

Εκείνη - Φοίβος Δεληβοριάς


Γεννιέσαι την έχεις μητέρα
πηδάς στον αέρα σκας στο πάτωμα
εκείνη σε βάζει στην κούνια
στα μάτια σαπούνια και γαλάκτωμα

Σου δείχνει πώς κάνει η πάπια
και μοιάζει με κάποια που 'χες γκόμενα
στο μέλλον με τ' άσπρα φωτάκια
και με τ' αστεράκια τα φλεγόμενα

Μετά που σε στέλνουν σχολείο
στο δίπλα θρανίο εκείνη κάθεται
μικρή με τα ροζ κοκαλάκια
και τα ποιηματάκια που θα μάθετε

Για να σε προσέξει ρεψίματα κάνεις
χτυπιέσαι στους δρόμους πλακώνεσαι
της σπας με νεράντζια τα τζάμια
κι από την ταράτσα πηδάς και σκοτώνεσαι

Σηκώνεσαι κι είσαι δεκάξι
βαριέσαι στην τάξη γράφεις ποιήματα
το στήθος της θέλει να σπάσει
κυλιέται στα δάση και στα κύματα

Ποιος στίχος σου θα τη χωρέσει
που θέλει να αρέσει στους ακέφαλους
που δίνει φιλιά μες στα δόντια
κι ανοίγει τα πόδια σ' άγνωστους φαλλούς

Την ψάχνεις το σκας απ' το σπίτι
σε σέρνει απ' τη μύτη αυτό το βάλσαμο
αυτή η μυρωδιά από γαζία
αυτή η τυραννία σε τραβά ενώ

Κανένας βοηθός δεν υπάρχει
να πει τι έχεις πάθει τι σε πόνεσε
κι εκείνη δε λέει να κοιτάξει
γκαζώνεις τ' αμάξι χτυπάς και σκοτώνεσαι

Λοιπόν έχω βγάλει και δίσκο
και πάλι δε βρίσκω εκείνο που 'θελα
πριν βγω στη σκηνή νιώθω χάλια
αδειάζω μπουκάλια με θολά νερά

Μα σαν το συγκρότημα βγαίνει
μπροστά φωτισμένη εκείνη κάθεται
χωρίς στα μαλλιά κοκαλάκια
χωρίς ποιηματάκια που θα μάθετε

Περνάω την κιθάρα στο βύσμα
με πιάνει ένα πείσμα απογειώνομαι
αρχίζω τον πρώτο μου στίχο
τρυπάω τον τοίχο και σκοτώνομαι

 

Shakin' Hands - Nickelback

(Hey, Hey)
She had her eyes on the prize as the girl next door
You grow up quick when you grow up poor
It's the only way to LA that she knows
The Hollywood pose: teeth, tits, and toes

It didn't take her long to leave the boulevard
So many Five Star friends with black credit cards
She'd try anything once
Cause anything goes
It never comes easy when you're digging for gold

(Hey, Hey)
Well she ain't no Cinderella
When she's getting undressed
'Cause she rocks it like the naughty wicked witch of the west

Far too pretty to be giving it cheap
That's why she's making six figures working three days a week
Yeah she'd even break a promise in the promise-land
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands

She'd take your money make it twice as hot as anyone can
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands

(Hey, Hey)
I doubt she'd even let the devil buy her little black book
City Hall would probably fall off if anyone got a look
Every A-List player is her favorite friend
Since they all taste the same in the back of the Benz

A congressman would call her every once in a while
Got the school girl skirt on the top of the pile
She'd done everyone once
And everyone knows

You got to get a little dirty when you're digging for gold

(Hey, Hey)

Far to pretty to be giving it cheap
That's why she's making six figures working three days a week
Yeah she'd even break a promise in the promise-land
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
She'd take your money make it twice is hot as anyone can
She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands

Well someone spilled the beans and now her name's in the press
Tough to keep it all a secret when you're one of the best
The judge is going easy because he paid for her chest
Yeah he loves his naughty wicked witch of the west

Far to pretty to be giving it cheap
That's why she's making six figures working three days a week
Yeah she'd even break a promise in the promise-land

She didn't make it this far by just shaking hands
She'd take your money make it twice is hot as anyone can

 

Απάντηση: Lyrics

I stand alone in the darkness
The winter of my life came so fast
Memories go back to my childhood
To days I still recall

Oh how happy I was then
There was no sorrow there was no pain
Walking through the green fields
Sunshine in my eyes

I'm still there everywhere
I'm the dust in the wind
I'm the star in the northern sky
I never stayed anywhere
I'm the wind in the trees
Would you wait for me forever?

Dreams
(The Cranberries)


Oh my life is changing everyday
In every possible way
And oh my dreams
It's never quite as it seems
Never quite as it seems

I know I felt like this before
But now I'm feeling it even more
Because it came from you
Then I open up and see
The person falling here is me
A different way to be

I want more, impossible to ignore
Impossible to ignore
And they'll come true
Impossible not to do
Impossible not to do

And now I tell you openly
You have my heart so don't hurt me
You're what I couldn't find
A totally amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You're everything to me

Oh my life is changing everyday
In every possible way
And oh my dreams
It's never quite as it seems
'Cause you're a dream to me
Dream to me
 

 

Verse 1:
Turn the lights off in this place
And she shines just like a star
And I swear I know her face
I just don’t know who you are
Turn the music up in here
I still hear her loud and clear
Like she’s right there in my ear
Telling me that
She wants to own me
To control me
Come closer
Come closer

Chorus:
And I just can’t pull myself away
Under her spell I can't break
I just cant stop
I just cant stop
I just cant stop
I just cant stop
And I just can’t bring myself away
But I don’t want to escape
I just can’t stop
I just can’t stop
I just can’t stop
I just can’t stop
I just can’t stop

Verse 2:
I can feel her on my skin
I can taste her on my tongue
Shes the sweetest taste of sin
The more I get the more I want
She wants to own me
Come closer
She says "come closer"

Chorus:
And I just can’t pull myself away
Under her spell I can't break
I just cant stop
I just cant stop
I just cant stop
I just cant stop
And I just can’t bring myself away
But I don’t want to escape
I just can’t stop
I just can’t stop
I just can’t stop
I just can’t stop
I just can’t stop

(Come closer) x 7
I just can’t stop nooooo
I just can’t stop nooooo
I just can’t stop nooooo
I just can’t stop nooooo

Chorus:
And I just can’t pull myself away
Under her spell I can't break
I just cant stop
I just cant stop
I just cant stop
I just cant stop
And I just can’t bring myself away
But I don’t want to escape
I just can’t stop
I just can’t stop
I just can’t stop
I just can’t stop
I just can’t stop

And I just can’t pull myself away
Under her spell I can't break
I just cant stop
I just cant stop
I just cant stop
I just cant stop
I just cant stop

"There's No Other Way"
(Blur)


You're taking the fun
Out of everything
Making me run
When I don't want to think
You're taking the fun
Out of everything
I don't want to think at all

There's no other way
There's no other way
All that you can do
Is watch them play

You're taking the fun
Out of everything
You're making it clear
When I don't want to think
You're taking me up when
I dont want to go up anymore
I'm just watching it all

There's no other way
There's no other way
All that you can do
Is watch them play

I'll watch you play

 

Either Way, I'll Break Your Heart Someday - Augustana

All I have are the way things go
I don't know
I just don't know
Make up some simple lies
And compromise
How I live

'cause either way I'll break your heart someday
But leaving you is the last thing on my mind
So when I go
baby kiss real slow so I don't forget my way back home
When I go

Sail away
On a wayward ship
With candy lips in my grip
Cheap perfume
Oh it never lies
It can't surprise
Any good advice

'cause either way I'll break your heart someday
But leaving you is the last thing on my mind
So when I go
baby kiss real slow so I don't forget to make my way back home
When I go

Well I miss you in the winter
Your friends say I should listen
Can't you see I've loved you all along
Well if America don't like me
You can say I finally
The kind of man who only likes the gun
Shoot anyone, shoot anyone

'cause either way I'll break your heart someday
But leaving you is the last thing on my mind
So when I go
baby kiss real slow so I don't forget my way back home
When I go

 

Νατάσα Θεοδωρίδου- Κόκκινη Γραμμή

Το πρόσωπο μου έχω κρύψει με καπνό,
σε ένα ποτήρι πόσες λύπες να χωρέσω
στα δυο σου χέρια τη ζωή μου είπες να δέσω
και μ'άφησες να πέσω.

Το πρόσωπο μου παγωμένο και νεκρό
σαν πέτρα που έμαθε τα δάκρυα να στεγνώνει
απόψε ο έρωτας αφήνει το τιμόνι
και 'γώ βαδίζω μόνη.

Ποιος ουρανός, να μας χωρέσει και τους δυο
ήρθε ο καιρός να κάνω κάτι πια και 'γώ.

Τραβάω λοιπόν σ' όλα μια κόκκινη γραμμή
σβήνω μια αγάπη που 'χε λάθος διαδρομή
αφού το θες ας είν' αυτή η πιο μεγάλη μας στιγμή.

Τραβάω λοιπόν σ' όλα μια κόκκινη γραμμή
σβήνω μια αγάπη που 'χε λάθος διαδρομή
αφού το θες ας είν' αυτή η πιο μεγάλη μας στιγμή.

Το πρόσωπο μου ένα παράθυρο κλειστό
λιωμένο σίδερο το σώμα όπου κι αν πιάσω
εσύ που μ' έκανες γυαλί να μη σκουριάσω
γιατί ζητάς να σπάσω.

Το πρόσωπο μου ένα μπαλκόνι σκοτεινό
που εσύ δε τόλμησες ποτέ σου να κοιτάξεις
μόλις θα φύγω τ' άγγιγμα μου να μη ψάξεις
μη με φωνάξεις.

Ποιος ουρανός, να μας χωρέσει και τους δυο
ήρθε ο καιρός να κάνω κάτι πια και 'γώ.

Τραβάω λοιπόν σ' όλα μια κόκκινη γραμμή
σβήνω μια αγάπη που 'χε λάθος διαδρομή
αφού το θες ας είν' αυτή η πιο μεγάλη μας στιγμή.

Τραβάω λοιπόν σ' όλα μια κόκκινη γραμμή
σβήνω μια αγάπη που 'χε λάθος διαδρομή
αφού το θες ας είν' αυτή η πιο μεγάλη μας στιγμή.
