Give and take

A vida é uma grande incógnita. As pessoas são um enorme ponto de interrogação.

Haverá uma forma de avaliar se estamos a dar de nós na medida certa? Será que nos entregamos demasiado ou em doses reduzidas? E isto vale para tudo...relações amorosas...relações profissionais... amizades... família... and so on...

E a escolha de palavras? Tem de ser criteriosa? Há palavras ou expressões proíbidas como "amo-te" ou "gosto muito de ti" ou "quero-te na minha vida para sempre"? E se as usarmos será que os destinatários as valorizam ou não lhe dão o crédito devido?

E até onde podemos ir no que toca a falar de nós? Podemos abrir completamente o casulo ou há partes de nós que devem ficar guardadas até à eternidade?

Enfim... por mais que atire estas questões ao ar... só me ocorre uma resposta: a vida e as pessoas dentro dela mais não são do que uma grande e complicada pergunta de retórica!

Resolução

A pedido de várias famílias, não escreverei mais posts com quotes da Anatomia de Grey, ou arrisco-me a que o Musicology se torne o blog oficial de fãs da série!! lol :)

New beginning

«Who gets to determine when the old ends and the new begins?
It's not a day on a calendar, not a birthday, not a new year.
It's an event. Big or small. Something that changes us.
Ideally, something that gives us hope. A new way of living and looking at the world.
Letting go of old habits, old memories...
What's important is that we never stop believing we can have a new beginning.
But it's also important to remember, that amid all the crap, are a few things really worth holding on to».
in Grey's Anatomy [Meredith]

An end has a start

... There's nothing left to say
... I hope you blow away
... Strike me off your list
... I'll walk away
... Given time we'll forget
Let's pretend we never meet
Screw you I didn't like your taste
Anway, I chose you
...I hope you blow away

[Robbie Williams - Sexed Up]

...Does it hurt
to know I'll never be there
Bet it sucks
to see my face everywhere
It was you
who chose to end it like you did
I was the last to know
you knew
exactly what you would do
And don’t say
you simply lost your way

...Never again will I hear you
Never again will I miss you
Never again will I fall to you
Never
Never again will I kiss you
Never again will I want to
Never again will I love you
Never!

[Kelly Clarkson - Never Again]

How do you open your heart to the one's you love?

Kiss

«For a kiss to be really good, you want it to mean something. You want it to be with someone you can't get out of your head, so that when your lips finally touch you feel it everywhere. A kiss so hot and so deep you never want to come up for air. You can't cheat your first kiss. Trust me, you don't want to. Cause when you find that right person for a first kiss, it's everything».
[in Grey's Anatomy]

...kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling
So kiss me...
[Sixpence None The Ritcher - Kiss Me]

Rebirth

«Pain, you just have to ride it out, hope it goes away on its own, hope the wound that caused it heals. There are no solutions, no easy answers, you just breath deep and wait for it to subside. Most of the time pain can be managed but sometimes the pain gets you where you least expect it. Hits way below the belt and doesn't let up. Pain, you just have to fight through, because the truth is you can't outrun it and life always makes more».

«Whoever said what you don't know can't hurt you was a complete and total moron ... because for most people I know, not knowing is the worst feeling in the world».

Friends

No matter how hard you fight it, you fall.
And It's scary as hell

Except there's an upside fo free falling:

It's the chance you give your friends to catch you.

[in Grey's Anatomy]

Give and take

...And you, maybe you'll remember me
What I gave is yours to keep...

[Vanessa Carlton - White Houses]



We all have a weakness
But some of ours are easy to identify. Look me in the eye,
and ask for forgiveness.
We'll make a pact to never speak that word again.
Yes, you are my friend.
We all have something that digs at us,
at least we dig each other.

So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday.

If I turn into another
dig me up from under what is covering
the better part of me.
Sing this song
remind me that we'll always have each other
when everything else is gone...

[Incubus - Dig]

On The Verge Of Something Wonderful

O antigo vocalista dos Savage Garden, o sr Darren Hayes, prepara-se para lançar o seu terceiro disco a solo. Longe dos tempos da carreira fulgurante com a banda de 'To The Moon And Back' e 'Truly, Madly Deeply', este rapaz australiano tem conseguido lançar alguns temas interessantes, de 'So Beautiful' a 'Strange Relationship', passando por 'Insatiable' sem, talvez à excepção do primeiro, ter alcançado sucesso considerável. 'On The Verge Of Something Wonderful' [ver vídeo abaixo] é a nova aposta do australiano e o primeiro avanço para o álbum "This Delicade Thing We've Made" [vai sair em formato de CD duplo, com um total de 25 temas]. É para ouvir em repeat.

Entretanto, Darren Hayes prepara a digressão "The Time Machine Tour", para já com datas agendadas na Australia e Reino Unido. A orquestração do espectáculo vai ter assinatuta de Willie Williams, que já trabalhou com os U2, R.E.M., The Rolling Stones e George Michael.

...When you let me go, now I’m on my way,
And the world below, is cold and grey.
On the verge of, on the verge of something wonderful.
A resurgence, on the edge of something wonderful.

For it, against it,
Said he’d never meant it, but Harry still dropped the bomb,
A trip to the dentist, the Hollywood black list,
A moment that time forgot.

When you let me go, now I’m on my way,
When the world below is cold and grey.
On the verge of, on the verge of, something wonderful.
At the edge of, on the verge of, something wonderful.

You can dance in the devil’s shoes, you like walking heels,
There’s a decent living to be made in the selling out of ideals,
You can lose your way, in the big city,
Get distracted and lost, and feel pretty, yeah..

Ohh, Ohh…

I want you, I need you;
I don’t wanna please you, or belong to anyone.
But life is for leading, for not people pleasing,
A race that has never been won...

[Darren Hayes On The Verge Of Something Wonderful]
