beirut - elephant gun


janelas

ecrã do telemóvel, ecrã do televisor, ecrã do computador, ecrã do cinema...

ecrã: superfície na qual se projectam, reproduzem ou formam imagens.

a vida através de janelas...
janelas sobre janelas e mais janelas.
já ninguém se vê, se fala, se ouve, se sente... senão através de janelas.
não há nada real.


"Transport, motorways and tramlines
Starting and then stopping
Taking off and landing
The emptiest of feelings
Disappointed people clinging on to bottles
And when it comes it's so so disappointing

Shell smashed, juices flowing
Wings twitch, legs are going
Don't get sentimental
It always ends up drivel

One day I'm going to grow wings
A chemical reaction
Hysterical and useless
Hysterical and ...

Let down and hanging around
Crushed like a bug in the ground
Let down and hanging around"

mad world



All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow


And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad World

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
And I feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me

mayonaise



No more promise no more sorrow
No longer will I follow
Can anybody hear me
I just want to be me
When I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will

21 grams

"How many lives do we live?
How many times do we die?

They say we all lose 21 grams at the exact moment of our death. Everyone.

And how much fits into 21 grams? How much is lost? When do we lose 21 grams? How much goes with them? How much is gained?

21 grams. The weight of a stack of five nickels. The weight of a hummingbird. A chocolate bar.

How much did 21 grams weight?"

dissolved girl

lost.. lost.. lies.. waiting.. hiding.. smiling.. crying.. sleeping.. not sleeping.. embracing.. feeling.. denying.. trying.. not trying.. locking.. lost.



"Shame, such a shame
I think I kind of lost myself again
Day, yesterday
Really should be leaving but I stay

Say, say my name
I need a little love to ease the pain
I need a little love to ease the pain
It's easy to remember when it came

'Cause it feels like I've been
I've been here before
You are not my savior
But I still don't go"
