Damien Rice – Fool

Conocida a través de Mi canción de hoy , otra canción más de Damien Rice. La música no es que me encante especialmente, pero la letra…. qué letra…

Damien Rice – Fool
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpIHAcBpQSw&w=560&h=315]
If you leave me now
It’s not that I can’t take it, It’s just that somehow,
I think you’d break it so much beyond repair
Like pulling out my hair, 
and poisoning the roots
A gun that never shoots again 
and if you leave me now, 
and take him deep within your throne, 
like you did when you were coming home, 
and you did again in Mexico, 
and again before you go, 
and I believed your lies, your lies, your lies. 
So turn and walk away. 
I’ve overspoken. Said all that I can say,
I know that I can kneel and I could cry. 
And I know that I could show you how I died, 
but what good would it do? 
Give the world another fool,  
If you’re gonna stay, 
don’t just say it. Stay, really stay. 
I don’t want any more goodbyes, any more disguise.
 No more tossing coins or him between your loins. 
And if you’re gonna stay, 
I’ll place you high upon a hill 
and with my hands I’ll build a tower in your name.
 And you will do the same. 
Won’t you my love? Won’t you my love? Won’t you my love? 
Or just turn and walk away
I’ve overspoken, said all that I can say.
I know that I can kneel and kiss your feet, 
walk ahead and clear the street.
 So you don’t have to meet but what good would it do.
 Give the world another fool. 
Turn and walk away. I’ve overspoken. 
Now what more can I say? 
I know that I can kneel and I can cry. 
I know, I know that I can show you how I died, 
now what good would it do. 
Give the world another fool, just sitting on this stool.
 I’m close to giving up on you.

Never surrender – Skillet

Quizás las canciones de Skillet son demasiado personales para ponerlas en mi blog (no tengo ninguna).

La más personal. Por todos mis motivos.

Never surrender – Skillet

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfkOmK6A75A&w=420&h=315]

Do you know what it’s like when,
You’re scared to see yourself?
Do you know what it’s like when,
You wish you were someone else?
Who didn’t need your help to get by;
Do you know what it’s like,
To wanna surrender?

I don’t wanna feel like this tomorrow,
I don’t wanna live like this today.
Make me feel better,
I wanna feel better!
Stay with me here now,
And never surrender.

Do you now what it’s like when,
You’re not who you wanna be?
Do you know what it’s like to,
Be your own worst enemy?
Who sees the things in me I can’t hide;
Do you know what it’s like,
To wanna surrender?

I don’t wanna feel like this tomorrow,
I don’t wanna live like this today.
Make me feel better,
I wanna feel better.
Stay with me here now,
And never surrender.

Make me feel better,
You make me feel better;
You make me feel better…
Put me back together!

I don’t wanna feel like this tomorrow,
I don’t wanna live like this today.
Make me feel better,
I need to feel better.
Stay with me here now,
And never surrender!

Put me back together!
Never surrender.

Make me feel better!
You make me feel better.
Stay with me here now,
And never surrender…

Welcome to the black parade – My Chemical Romance

Welcome to the black parade – My Chemical Romance
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaEoZyTYBjs&w=420&h=315]
When I was a young boy,
My father took me into the city
To see a marching band.

He said, «Son when you grow up,
would you be the savior of the broken,
the beaten and the damned?»
He said «Will you defeat them,
your demons, and all the non-believers,
the plans that they have made?»
«Because one day I’ll leave you,
A phantom to lead you in the summer,
To join The Black Parade.»

When I was a young boy,
My father took me into the city
To see a marching band.
He said, «Son when you grow up,
would you be the savior of the broken,
the beaten and the damned?»

Sometimes I get the feeling she’s watching over me.
And other times I feel like I should go.
And through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets.
And when you’re gone we want you all to know.

We’ll carry on,
We’ll carry on
And though you’re dead and gone believe me
Your memory will carry on
We’ll carry on
And in my heart I can’t contain it
The anthem won’t explain it.

A world that sends you reeling from decimated dreams
Your misery and hate will kill us all.
So paint it black and take it back
Let’s shout it loud and clear
Defiant to the end we hear the call

To carry on
We’ll carry on
And though you’re dead and gone believe me
Your memory will carry on
We’ll carry on
And though you’re broken and defeated
Your weary widow marches

On and on we carry through the fears
Ooh oh ohhhh
Disappointed faces of your peers
Ooh oh ohhhh
Take a look at me cause I could not care at all

Do or die, you’ll never make me
Because the world will never take my heart
Go and try, you’ll never break me
We want it all, we wanna play this part
I won’t explain or say I’m sorry
I’m unashamed, I’m gonna show my scar
Give a cheer for all the broken
Listen here, because it’s who we are
I’m just a man, I’m not a hero
Just a boy, who had to sing this song
I’m just a man, I’m not a hero
I! don’t! care!

We’ll carry on
We’ll carry on
And though you’re dead and gone believe me
Your memory will carry on
We’ll carry on
And though you’re broken and defeated
Your weary widow marches on

Do or die, you’ll never make me
Because the world will never take my heart
Go and try, you’ll never break me
We want it all, we wanna play this part (We’ll carry on)

Do or die, you’ll never make me (We’ll carry on)
Because the world will never take my heart (We’ll carry on)
Go and try, you’ll never break me (We’ll carry)
We want it all, we wanna play this part 
(We’ll carry on)

Summercat – Billie the Vision & The Dancers

Summercat – Billie the Vision & The Dancers

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWWQUHRPb3g&w=420&h=315]

I kissed you good bye at the airport.
I held you so close to me.
I said ‘So here we are now and I can’t stop from crying Lilly’.
And you said ‘Hey hey hoo, you know this is the way to go
You will forget about me when I’m on that plane.
Forget about me when I’m on that plane.’

Tonight tonight tonight tonight
I wanna be with you Tonight tonight tonight tonight
I wanna be with you tonight

The plane took off and my love went with it.
The chilly wind whipped my both cheeks hard.
And the man next to me said ‘Everything is gonna be alright’.
I said ‘Nothing is gonna be alright, but thank you anyway’.
And then I saw your face in the airplane window.
I waved my hands and I shouted to you:

Tonight tonight tonight tonight
I wanna be with you Tonight tonight tonight tonight
I wanna be with you tonight

I wore a T-shirt and my worn out hat.
Abandoned as a summer cat.
And as I stood there as a broken hearted
I realized you got the car keys still.
So I broke into my own old car.
I fell asleep on the passenger seat.
I dreamed of summer sex with you and you whispered in my ear:

Tonight tonight tonight tonight
I wanna be with you Tonight tonight tonight tonight
I wanna be with you tonight
Why can’t you leave me tomorrow instead?
Why can’t you leave me tomorrow instead?

And above the clouds she said to her self ‘
I can’t believe how naive a man can be.
That’s why I love you so and that’s why I can’t be with you…’

Tonight tonight tonight tonight
I wanna be with you Tonight tonight tonight tonight
I wanna be with you tonight

Salvese quien pueda – Vetusta Morla

Por todo, Vetusta.

Salvese quien pueda – Vetusta Morla

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1uTrIJCAOU]


Puedo volver ,
Puedo callar
Puedo forzar la realidad
Puedo doler
Puedo arrasar
Puedo sentir que no doy mas
Puedo escurrir
Puedo pasar
Puedo fingir que me da igual
Puedo incidir
Puedo escapar
Puedo partirme y negociar la otra mitad

Puedo romper
Puedo olvidar
Puede comerme la ansiedad
Puedo salir
Puedo girar
Puedo ser fácil de engañar
Puedo joder
Puedo encantar
Puedo llamarte sin hablar
Puedo vencer
Puedo palmar
Puedo saber que sin vosotros duele más

Puede ser que mañana esconda mi voz,
Por hacerlo a mi manera
Hay tanto idiota ahí fuera
Puede ser que haga de la rabia mi flor,
y con ella mi bandera
Sálvese quien pueda

Puedo torcer
Puedo lanzar
Puedo perderme en la obviedad
Puedo servir
Puedo cansar
Puedo saber que sin vosotros duele más

Puede ser que mañana esconda mi voz,
Por hacerlo a mi manera
Hay tanto idiota ahí fuera
Puede ser que haga de la rabia mi flor,
y con ella mi bandera
Sálvese quien pueda

Puedo, torcer, lanzar, perderme en la obviedad,
sentir, cansar, saber que sin vosotros duele más

Puede ser que mañana esconda mi voz,
Por hacerlo a mi manera
Hay tanto idiota ahí fuera
Puede ser que haga de la rabia mi flor,
y con ella mi bandera
Sálvese quien pueda
Sálvese quien pueda, Sálvese quien pueda

Nothing Else Matters – Metallica

Hoy he hecho algo que no debería, error que cometo a menudo y que me molesta a mi (tanto como a otras personas). No se debería pensar en quien no lo merece.

A cambio, se me dio por escuchar cierta canción. Que realmente no tiene mucho que ver, pero ahí estaba y aquí estoy yo escuchándola.

Antes de ponerla, debo decir que la primera vez que la escuché, fue una versión que hizo Lucie Silvas, pero voy a poner la original, por ese toque más rock que hará que me evada un poquito 🙂

Nothing Else Matters – Metallica
So close no matter how far
Couldn’t be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don’t just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

So close no matter how far
It couldn’t be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

I never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don’t just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
And I know

So close no matter how far
Couldn’t be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
No, nothing else matters

Os dejo la versión de Lucie Silvas, por si os apetece escucharla : )

Al respirar – Vetusta Morla

Al respirar – Vetusta Morla

Te he dejado en el sillón
las pinturas y una historia en blanco.
No hay principio ni final,
sólo lo que quieras ir contando.

Y al respirar intenta ser quien ponga el aire,
que al inhalar te traiga el mundo de esta parte.

Te he dejado en el sillón
las pinturas y una historia en blanco.
Yo me marcho a otro lugar,
puede que el viaje sea largo.


La burbuja en que crecí nos vendió comodidad
y un nudo entre las manos.
Yo escogí la ambigüedad, tú el fantasma y lo real,
todo en el mismo barco.

Y al respirar propongo ser quien ponga el aire,
que al inhalar me traiga el mundo de esta parte.
Y respirar tan fuerte que se rompa el aire,
aunque esta vez si no respiro es por no ahogarme.

Intenta no respirar …
Intenta no respirar …

Y al respirar propongo ser quien ponga el aire,
que al inhalar me traiga el mundo de esta parte.
Y respirar tan fuerte que se rompa el aire,
aunque esta vez quizá será mejor marcharse.

Intenta no respirar …
Intenta no respirar …

Fear not this night

Fear not this night – Jeremy Soule




Fear not this night
You will not go astray
Though shadows fall
Still the stars find their way

Awaken from a quiet sleep
Hear the whispering of the wind
Awaken as the silence grows
In the solitude of the night

Darkness spreads through all the land
And your weary eyes open silently
Sunsets have forsaken all
The most far off horizons

Nightmares come when shadows grow
Eyes close and heartbeats slow

Fear not this night
You will not go astray
Though shadows fall
Still the stars find their way

And you can always be strong
Lift your voice with the first light of dawn

Dawn’s just a heartbeat away
Hope’s just a sunrise away

Distant sounds of melodies
Darting through the night to your heart
Auroras, mists, and echoes dance
In the solitude of our life

Pleading, sighing arias
Gently grieving in captive misery
Darkness sings a forlorn song
Yet our hope can still rise up

Nightmares come when shadows roam
Lift your voice, lift your hope

Fear not this night
You will not go astray

Though shadows fall
Still the stars find their way

And though the night sky’s filled with blackness
Fear not, rise up, call out and take my hand

Fear not this night
You will not go astray
Though shadows fall
(Still the stars find their way)

Fear not this night
You will not go astray
Though shadows fall
(Still the stars find their way)

And you can always be strong
Lift your voice with the first light of dawn

Dawn’s just a heartbeat away
Hope’s just a sunrise away

Take me out – Franz Ferdinand

Cuando sales de clase y te subes al bus, siempre sola, en silencio, y te desanimas pensando «siempre igual. No importa lo que me esfuerce…siempre igual». Basta con poner una canción, una sola canción. Basta con dos versos. Dos únicos versos.

Para ti. Por ti. Un pensamiento.


Take me out – Franz Ferdinand

So if you’re lonely
You know I’m here waiting for you

I’m just a crosshair
I’m just a shot away from you
And if you leave here
You leave me broken, shattered, I lie
I’m just a crosshair
I’m just a shot, then we can die

I know I won’t be leaving here with you

I say don’t you know
You say you don’t know
I say… take me out!

I say you don’t show
Don’t move, time is slow
I say… take me out!

I say you don’t know
You say you don’t know
I say… take me out!

If I move this could die
If eyes move this could die
I want you…to take me out!

I know I won’t be leaving here (with you)
I know I won’t be leaving here
I know I won’t be leaving here (with you)
I know I won’t be leaving here with you

I say don’t you know?
You say you don’t know
I say take me out

If I wane, this can die
If I wane, this can die
I want you to take me out

If I move, this could die
If eyes move, this could die
Come on, take me out

Contigo – Sabina

Contigo – Joaquin Sabina


Yo no quiero un amor civilizado,
con recibos y escena del sofá;
yo no quiero que viajes al pasado
y vuelvas del mercado
con ganas de llorar.

Yo no quiero vecinas con pucheros;
yo no quiero sembrar ni compartir;
yo no quiero catorce de febrero
ni cumpleaños feliz.

Yo no quiero cargar con tus maletas;
yo no quiero que elijas mi champú;
yo no quiero mudarme de planeta,
cortarme la coleta,
brindar a tu salud.
Yo no quiero domingos por la tarde;
yo no quiero columpio en el jardín;
lo que yo quiero, corazón cobarde,
es que mueras por mí
.
Y morirme contigo si te matas

y matarme contigo si te mueres
porque el amor cuando no muere mata
porque amores que matan nunca mueren.

Yo no quiero juntar para mañana,
no me pidas llegar a fin de mes;
yo no quiero comerme una manzana
dos veces por semana
sin ganas de comer.
Yo no quiero calor de invernadero;
yo no quiero besar tu cicatriz;
yo no quiero París con aguacero
ni Venecia sin ti.

No me esperes a las doce en el juzgado;
no me digas «volvamos a empezar»;
yo no quiero ni libre ni ocupado,
ni carne ni pecado,
ni orgullo ni piedad.
Yo no quiero saber por qué lo hiciste;
yo no quiero contigo ni sin ti;
lo que yo quiero, muchacha de ojos tristes,
es que mueras por mí.

 Amor…
