"No love, no gloryNo hero in her sky"

Este mundo é mesmo curioso. Durante mais de uma semana não consegui mudar a musica deste espaço. Tentei várias vezes, com musicas diferentes. Foi preciso descobrir esta, para que funcionasse.

Para quê escrever. Para quê usar palavras, comparações, hipérboles e toda um rol interminável de figuras de estilo para tentar mascarar e dar a volta à situação... quando está tudo aqui, na letra desta musica. Está lá tudo, até a ponta de ironia com que todos os dias tento enganar-te, enganar os outros... ou simplesmente enganar-me só a mim.

Damien Rice canta The blower’s daughter, musica da banda sonora do filme Closer. No botão do play, ali à direita. E a letra da musica, para não me esquecer de esquecer.

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

(Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?)

I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
'Til I find somebody new

(The blower's daughter, Damien Rice)
