Flummox


Welcome me dissolution
For which I have long awaited
With new found hope
Have me step out from this land
Escape from the gloom elated

Have me turn it into a box
Have me turn it into a single thought
And let us flow
Let the mould on our shoulders dry
And let us leave this decay

The charcoal taste in my mouth
Has kept me bitter for long enough


Have it burn
Have it shine
Have it learn
Have it die

And it wears me out, it wears me out, it wears me out, it wears me out...

Truth be said...

I am only a victim of your mischief

Unwinding of the mind


The crippling of the styled
as the bashing of wood
as the beating of bones against one's flesh
through water and stone
so may there be some balance

Such and effort for no acknowledgment

A quick gasp
So there can be light and freedom
Crescent heart beating
So there can be a decent meaning
An innate force that pulls you
through and through

Feelings as such are not to be taken lightly

Study your mind
Focus on what you attain by doing such
The vagueness of your being
can now be lightened
or can even be bruised
Its never one's choice
Yet the results will always have a different taste

Channeling emotions is always an easy way out...

The Unforgiving Stimuli


Soft tunes flowing
through the air springing
as though from a glimpse created
now reckoning the sweet misfortune
that has settled in

As a page that is kept intact
by purpose and by all means
created for this purpose
Speaking its mind and such...

Troubling as it may seem
this soothing sensation
it may be misleading
For in its core lies grief and sorrow

So sweet and soft
and so dorment and so unreal and so passionate and so fake
leading and misleading
and very unforgiving

If only you could....

Wouldn't it be good if you could just start from scratch?
Have a new layout, a new perspective, new friends and families?
Have a new found smile and new found tears?
A whole new meaning?










Yes it would, but you better not trust movies, for they aren't real...

Καλοκαιράκι στην Ελλάδα




Καλοκαιράκι στην Ελλάδα - The Video (by Luís/orochi)

Σαγαπώ Ελλάδα

Ah pois é... já não era sem tempo de aqui a minha pessoa postar alguma coisa!
Como ando com falta de inspiração para escrever coisas sem nexo e/ou postar fotos da República Checa e afins, resolvi escrever sobre um pais que ainda não consegui tirar da cabeça:

Ελλάς
como quem diz "Grécia"


Ah pois é! Até grego aprendi a ler! (o que não quer dizer que entenda o que está escrito, mas isso já é outra conversa...).
Perguntam vocês "Mas porquê a Grécia?", e eu respondo:
Não pela história, não por ser chique, mas basicamente pela experiência.
Pela amizade dos gregos, pela hospitalidade, pela diversão, por tudo e mais alguma coisa!
Este pais marcou-me mais do que qualquer outro...
Ainda hoje preservo aqueles dias na minha memória, como se ainda ontem tivessem sido.
Gostava de lá voltar no próximo verão para visitar os meus amigos de novo ou, quem sabe, tentar a minha sorte e ficar por lá uns tempos... só o tempo dirá.


Grécia... Recomenda-se!

Thank you for everything guys :)

I amsterdam!

You Belong in Amsterdam

A little old fashioned, a little modern - you're the best of both worlds. And so is Amsterdam.
Whether you want to be a squatter graffiti artist or a great novelist, Amsterdam has all that you want in Europe (in one small city).


Tomei a iniciativa da minha amiga blogista aracnídia e fiz o teste. Estou contente com o resultado!
Já tive oportunidade de visitar e de facto senti que era uma cidade que me dizia muito.
Parece que até este site concorda que a cidade a que eu pertenço é tudo menos "Funchal"!

Are you a bad person?

Being tired of these squally days, it is maybe time to consider a new set of rules:

1. Waiting and thinking have always been a solution.
2. Trying a different approach may have a better result.
3. Confiding may also be important, yet highly dangerous.
4. Looking ahead is an important key, but keeping in mind what went away is a better one.
5. Learn!
6. Use this to your advantage.
7. CONGRATULATIONS! You are a better person!

Now seariously...remember:


yours in an everclimbing road.

Amsterdam is a crazy place...











"Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond."

Control




If I let you,
You would make me destroy myself
In order to survive you,
I must first survive myself
I can sink no further
and I cannot forgive you.
There's no choice but to confront,
to engage you,
to erase you.
I've gone to great lengths
to expand my threshold of pain.
I will use my mistakes against you
there's no other choice.
I'm shameless now,
I'm nameless now,
I'm nothing now,
I'm no one now,
But my soul must be iron,
'Cause my fear is naked
I'm naked and fearless
and my fear is naked



[lyrics from Tool - Bottom]

From Pardubice to Prague

after you get to the train...
it will take you approximately one hour

to get to Prague...


Beautiful indeed!

A única maneira de subir é descendo


Doem-me as entranhas
Doi-me a lingua, doi-me a cor
Doi-me o facto de pensar que algo me está a doer
Doi-me a desilusão desta dor
Doem-me os olhos
(Não consigo mirar o horizonte
Tenho a visão ofuscada
Não sou sensível, mas gostaria de não poder sentir)
Doi-me a esperança e a saudade
Doi-me a raiva e a verdade
Doi-me a tentativa de complacência
E doi-me tambem esta insegurança
É neste desassosego que me desassosego.


[Queria escrever algo bonito, algo alegre.
As minhas desculpas mas não consigo.]

Open up and say "aahh..."


Unveil your torments
Show me what you have become
Forget the facade
Show me what is underneath

Give me that wide smile
Show me you care
Look at the horizon
Show me what lies beyond

Manifest your hate
Show me you can love
Hide it all in
but then show me...
Show me all your secrets

Shaking: the very foundations


Only a little push to carry the wave
You may feel some nuisance
But don't be afraid
This is what it feels like.
Why don't you come inside? Feel free.

Feels better now I hope?
How nice of you to come by.
Do you enjoy this place?
I know it's not for sale, but maybe I could rent it...
For free maybe?

Would you like me to go crazy?
I'll tell you a secret...
If you break this chain I am no more
(It's already broken!)
Oh... how interesting...

Criminal



Quantas vezes te apetece mandar tudo para a merda?
Queria ter a coragem de fazer isso.
Mas também... se já não me gramam agora... não ia ser assim.
Como se isso fosse realmente importante.
Deve haver sempre alguem que não nos queira bem não é?


Vou tentar estalar os dedos a ver se dá resultado.
Ou então vou colocar uma cruz de alecrim á porta da minha casa para afastar o olhado.
O que realmente me apetecia fazer era enfiá-la no cú de alguem.

Forget me not


It is too early to be wondering about life(already), but that must be why I find it so entertaining. In thinking about this subject one may try and find some answers, but what one gets in fact are questions - which can be amusing, yet frustrating.
Questions like "why?" and "how?" may emerge and from experience I can tell that trying to answer these is not only a waste of time, but also a waste of thought.
And what about conservativeness? Does clinging to the ideal mean a sick character? Is change always necessary? Can you cope with an all too approving attitude?
I used to have a ready answer in this subject, but now I am confused.
Yet trying to avoid questions and being direct seems to be my problem.
Leaves one thinking... this compulsory feeling.

Sin pelear


Yo desisto
nada es suficiente bueno, nada es bueno para ti
No voy exigir más de mí próprio
Aceleré demasiado mí tiempo....
Yo no estoy en venta
No soy el próximo de ellos

narcotics





I could live easily
forgetting all about the psyche
nothing to mess with my head anymore
it's so nice over there... far better than before
just a quick sip and it will all go away
like some kind of foreplay
I do have mood swings, so why care?
I don't... better for you to be aware
I live walled within, surrounded by bricks
someone once told me
I'm sick off all the bullshits
and sick off the uncanny

after all its only in me I can rely...
