Versuri de la Faithless

April 20, 2007 – 1:31 pm

Stateam acum cateva zile si ascultam Faithless. Mi-au placut tot timpul dar numai acum am realizat ca pe langa ritmul placut si vocea patrunzatoare exista si un text, un text ce pana acum nu am bagat in seama. Azi mi-am adus aminte de momentele respective si m-am pus sa caut versurile. Iata cateva extrase:

Faithless - Why go?

I didn’t know you’d be here, and I wasn’t meant to come.
I’d be sitting watching TV if there was anything decent on,
if I’d missed the taxi or found nothing good to wear.
But for some uncertain reason, some strange uncertain reason,
this is how it all it all began.
[...]
If I made some coffee, would you sit and talk some more?
I know words are usually pointless when you’ve used them all before.
The way your smile fills the room –
Stay awhile. Kick off your shoes. Don’t go. Please stay. –
It always happened this way.

Faithless - Insomnia

Deep in the bosom of the gentle night
Is when I search for the light
Pick up my pen and start to write
I struggle, I fight dark forces in the clear moonlight
Without fear
Insomnia
I can’t get no sleep
I used to worry
Thought I was going mad in a hurry
Getting stressed, making excess mess in darkness
No electricity, something’s all over me, greasy
Insomnia please release me
And let me dream of making mad love to my girl on the heath
Tearing off tights with my teeth
But there’s no release, no peace
I toss and turn without cease
Like a curse, open my eyes and rise like yeast
At least a couple of weeks since I last slept, kept taking sleepers
But now I keep myself pepped
Deeper still, that night
I write by candlelight, I find insight
Fundamental movement, huh, so when it’s black
This insomniac, take an original tack
Keep the beast in my nature
Under ceaseless attack

Faithless - Bring my family back

I’m on Lonely Street age nearly three
Recently Mama’s cryin all the time is it because of me
Or my younger sister, even Dad was weeping when he kissed her
Face all Puffy like a blister, cryin’ like he missed her
Since we moved away from the house where we useta play
They say I’ll understand one day, but I doubt it, Mama never say nothin’ about it
How’d it get to be so crowded
I found it a strain, everywhere I look I see pain
And I can’t escape the feelin’, maybe I’m to blame
So I strain to listen, prayin’ for a decision, whishing’ they were kissin’
This feels like extradition or exile, Mama finds it hard to smile
So I make pretend cups of coffe in her favourite style
She says child I’m working so there’s nothing you lack
Bus she know I want my Dad, I want my family back

… si alte multe versuri ce merita ascultate.
