Let Down

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

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

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
Radiohead

Fade Into You



"C'était inévitable: l'odeur des amandes amères lui rappelait toujours le destin des amours contrariées"
L'Amour Au Temps Du Choléra
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
I want to hold the hand inside you
I want to take a breath that's true
I look to you and I see nothing
I look to you to see the truth
You live your life
You go in shadows
You'll come apart and you'll go black
Some kind of night into your darkness
Colors your eyes with what's not there.
Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew
A stranger's light comes on slowly
A stranger's heart without a home
You put your hands into your head
And then it's smiles cover your heart
Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew
Fade Into You
Mazzy Star

Underneath The Stars


Underneath the stars I'll meet you
Underneath the stars I'll greet you
There beneath the stars I'll leave you
Before you go of your own free will
Go gently
Underneath the stars you met me
Underneath the stars you left me
I wonder if the stars regret me
At least you'll go of your own free will
Go gently
Here beneath the stars I'm landing
And here beneath the stars not ending
Why on earth am I pretending?
I'm here again, the stars befriending
They come and go of their own free will
Go gently
Go gently
Underneath the stars you met me
And Underneath the stars you left me
I wonder if the stars regret me
I'm sure they'd like me if they only met me
They come and go of their own free will
Go gently
Go gently
Go gently
Underneath The Stars

Keep Talking

For millions of years mankind lived just like the animals
Then something happenend which unleashed the power of our imagination
We learned to talk
....
It doesn't have to be like this
All we need to do is make sure we keep talking

Keep Talking

Moons, Stars And Some Thoughts

Now follow me always
Into the sky
Where we reach the stars
Now follow me slowly
Over the stars
Where we reach the sky
Where we reach the sky
Where we reach the sky

Follow

The World Is Gray

The world is gray
You're all alone
Maybe If someone helps you home
The emptiness
That brings you down
Keeps you searching for the ground
You're searching for the ground

Who Is She?

Oh who is she
A misty memory
A haunting face,
Is she a lost embrace?

Le Vent Nous Portera

Je n'ai pas peur de la route
Faudrait voir, faut qu'on y goûte
Des méandres au creux des reins
Et tout ira bien
Le vent l'emportera

Ton message à la grande ourse
Et la trajectoire de la course
À l'instantané de velours
Même s'il ne sert à rien
Le vent l'emportera
Tout disparaîtra
Le vent nous portera

La caresse et la mitraille
Cette plaie qui nous tiraille
Le palais des autres jours
D'hier et demain
Le vent les portera

Génétique en bandoulière
Des chromosomes dans l'atmosphère
Des taxis pour les galaxies
Et mon tapis volant, lui
Le vent l'emportera
Tout disparaîtra
Le vent nous portera

Ce parfum de nos années mortes
Ceux qui peuvent frapper à ta porte
Infinité de destin
On en pose un, qu'est-ce qu'on en retient ?
Le vent l'emportera

Pendant que la marée monte
Et que chacun refait ses comptes
J'emmène au creux de mon ombre
Des poussières de toi
Le vent les portera
Tout disparaîtra
Le vent nous portera

Le Vent Nous Portera

My Candle

"My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends
It gives a lovely light!"

Grey VS. White

These precious illusions in my head did not let me down
When I was defenseless
And parting with them is like parting with invisible best friends

Precious Illusions

Echoes

Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves
In labyrinths of coral caves
The echo of a distant tide
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine
And no-one showed us to the land
And no-one knows the where's or why's
But something stirs and something tries
And starts to climb towards the light

Echoes
Pink Floyd

Comme un guetteur mélancolique
J'observe la nuit et la mort"

Cloud In The Sky

Take my vision away
Take the words that I say
Take yourself from me
Can't take what I believe
There's a cloud in the sky
But I ain't gonna cry

The hurt's relentless
The hurt of emptiness
The hurt of wanting
The hurt of going on
The hurt of missing
The hurt is killing me

A Daydream


Fly with me falling through the night

Fly with me falling out of sight

Find me hold me in your arms

'Cos I'm scared of their controlling crowds

In My Dreams

In my dreams I'm dying all the time
Then I wake its kaleidoscopic mind
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to lie
So this is goodbye
This is goodbye
Tell the truth you never wanted me
Tell me...
In my dreams I'm jealous all the time
Then I wake I'm going out of my mind
Going out of my mind

Confessions Of A Broken Heart

I wrote a poem about you
I wrote a poem for you
It was very true
It was a piece of me and you
I wished you could feel my words
I wished you could hear my heart chords
Be my relief of these life chores
Be my emotional bones
I had a dream about you
I had a dream for you
The dream didn't come true
The dream was lost in the blue
I saw you in my dreams
I saw you as an angel of black and white films
Smiling to me in tunes
Holding promises, flowers and moons
I tried to hug you
I tried to draw symbols for you
But the more I got closer to you,
The more you withdrew
I wanted us to be each other's routine
I wanted us to be each other's morphine
I wanted you to save me from spleen
I wanted you to save the anti-heroine
I tore up my poems about you
I tore apart my dreams about you
I tore up my poems for you
I tore apart my dreams of you
I let you go away
Be someone's else reverie
I let you go away
Fall in someone's else reverie
And I missed you
In my memory I searched for you
If only you understood my symbols
If only I believed in my illusions
...You're still on my mind
It's nobody's fault but mine
I should erase and rewind.

Once I was

And though you have forgotten
All of our rubbish dreams
I find myself searching
Through the ashes of our ruins
For the days when we smiled
And the hours that ran wild
With the magic of our eyes
And the silence of our words
And sometimes I wonder
Just for a while
Will you remember me
Once I was
Tim Buckley
