The Long Way Home

I only just left her house
I bet her curtains will move if I turn around
But I've been here too many times
So now I worry a little less
I haven't been trying too hard, I guess
But shouldn't be this easy to forget

Not the slightest sign of doubt
We've got the whole thing figured out
I'm gonna take the long way home tonight

I wish I just let us grow
Like that song you've heard on the radio
That keeps you hanging round for more
Guess it takes some time to know
And the night might be cruel when you're all alone
But it's no easy way to go

Not the slightest sign of doubt
We've got the whole thing figured out
I'm gonna take the long way home

When I stop and turn around
My feet no longer touch the ground
Although I carry her weight around

mundo áspero

pervivo así en contacto con este mundo áspero, sin hacer un sólo movimiento. porque la más ligera voluntad de cambio parece reducirme a un yo más duro, frío, oscuro; que tiende a un sólo punto infinitesimal, aislado y aún más muerto.

So I took my guitar
And I threw down some chords
And some words I could sing without shame

And I soon had a song
I played it around
For some friends but they all said the same

They said music's for fools
You should go back to school
The future is prisms and math

So I did what they said
Now my children are fed
'Cause they pay me to do what I'm asked

I forgot all my songs
The words now are wrong
And I burned my guitar in a rage

And the fire came to rest
In a black vulture's nest
So somehow I just know that i'm dead.

conclusiones de una noche determinada

1. la liberación del espíritu conduce a un estado de décallage sensorial similar al producido por la resaca del alcohol
2. en períodos prolongados de incertidumbre se produce una ilusión consistente en creer que los acontecimientos aleatorios se presentan ante nosotros a modo de señales enviadas por alguna razón superior
3. si mezclas el cine independiente californiano con la nueva ola de cine catalán obtienes un producto indie-comercial, deforme pero resultón
