Fear
Fear time running out
Feel love coming down
Fear time will take my crown
Feel love around
I remember, remember it so well when I heard my body telling me to stop
I shut my mouth, I shot myself, I shut my eyes and I chose to shoot you all
When? Well, when I closed it with all sorts of things, huge amounts of soil and sand, all kinds of ropes and strong chains
Strong but not strong enough to silence all those inside me who were in pain
Fear time running out
Feel love coming down
I felt them, felt them alive, more than ever, all my fears demanding full presence and love
So I faced, embraced, I asked them for a dance and they came, they joined for another chance
We danced, we cried, we laughed, we died, in love we celebrated that we would never hide
Now I know time won't stop, I won't disappear, I'm an expansion of love and I choose to embrace my fear
Feel, feel… Feel love…
Don’t fight your fear
Get free your tear
Don’t fight your fear
Feel love appear

Birth song
Walk, embrace your path
Go and face death
The only true you’ll find
So deconstruct your mind
Já não sei quem eu sou
Donde eu vim, pra onde eu vou
Quis partir pra encontrar o lugar
E voltar a partir
Pra sentir o lugar
Donde eu vim, pra onde eu vou, quem eu sou

Collapse

Collapse
A flame inside, cold outside
A gag in the mouth and the wet white snake running in my veins
Fast enough for change
The steps that would lead me to your back door
Where we met so many many times
Fighting for power in those little and pleasurable crimes
That I would do
Once and once again until...
Until we both collapse again
Until we both collapse again
Until we both collapse
Skin and flesh demand your touch
Heart and soul are wrapped in pain and rush
Leaving little pieces spilled on that flooded falling floor
That I would pick up and then bring to your front door
Where we met wondering about the crimes
We promised not to bet even in our worst times
Those that I would
Pass through once and once again until...
Until we both collapse again
Until we both collapse again
Until we both collapse

Mar ta em mim

Mar ta em mim
E pudesse eu gravar em mim o cheiro das tuas palavras enquanto salgas cada instante da minha pele.
Sentir que nada sinto quando sinto que não te encontro, procuro e te minto num quadro infiel.
Por dentro não é o mesmo, é de um frio tão profundo, vasto quanto basta para ser todo o meu mundo.
Sou de água, água profunda, água salgada e moribunda, sou do sol e sou de luas, mais um barco se afunda.
Longe vou ser só um ser…
Longe vais sentir…
Longe vou ser só um ser sem ti mas eu sei que sabes sempre quem sou.
Longe vais ser mais um ser sem mim sem sentir quem não ficou.
E pudesse eu cantar a incerteza do seu gesto, seus cabelos redes verdes é raro o encontrar.
Luz que toca e que seduz, luz que ofusca mas traduz os dias que já lá vão e a palavra em canção.
Ser só seu não posso ser já que assim não há viver, sou de todos sou do mundo e assim seu bem lá no fundo.
Sal e chuva em cara dura e luar que a fome cura, minha cara em caravela e eu sem rumo em barco à vela.
Longe vou ser só um ser sem ti mas eu sei que sabes sempre quem sou.
Longe vais ser mais um ser sem mim sem sentir quem não ficou.
Longe vou ser só um ser…
Longe vais sentir…

Your skin

Your skin
I couldn't go around the world and watch it all go round without you by my side
I couldn't find all the roads and trails, looking all the time to see where you were
So many places, faces, false traces, finding you in all those funny faces
So many walks, walking all around, running all the time from just hanging around
Did I tell you all about your skin?
Did you know that I travel around the world
And I do it every time that I love your skin
Falling, falling for your skin, falling, falling for your skin
I couldn't stay so closed inside I had to jump deep into this crazy ride
I found a lot of crazy things all the characters of my worst dreams
I stared straight into all those fears embracing them with pure love and tears
So much light shining from inside I had to let it be my new guide
Did I tell you all about your skin?
Did you know that I traveled around the world
And I did it every time that I loved your skin
Falling, falling from your skin, falling, falling from your skin

Simples canção
O azul do mar, um azul sem mais
E o verde do chão que não sabe onde vais
E não dizes não e então, porque sais?
Se não sabes ler os meus sinais
Eu fui atrás, para saber mais
De ti e de nós, de todos os finais
Porque o amor tem vida e morte onde quer que vá
E em ti a esperança dos mortais
Falando cantavas em todas as cores
E acordado eu sonhava seguir-te onde fores
Mas a canção lembrava todos os teus amores
Trazia de volta velhas dores
Em ti eu pinto uma simples canção
Pergunto onde estás ao verde do chão
Mas o azul do mar sem mais pede suave a tua mão
E diz-me que tu foste e eu... fiquei

They say
They say that the world sings back to you
Saying that the word is not enough to
Stop all that pain we make us pass through
They say that the world expects you to be true
They say that the world asks us to find
All that love and hate we keep inside
Our fragile body and our selfish mind
They say that the world needs us to step aside
They say that the world sings back to you
The song that you sing inside of you
They say that the world sings back to you
The song that you sing inside of you

State of stating
I’ve been running from all that I’ve found
So I sing this song ‘cos I need to let go
Made it for myself, but I’ll share it with you
So I hope that you do the same thing too, do the same thing too
Find the old muddy road that will lead you to
All that stuck, stinky, dirty water inside of you
Don’t be scared of the world you might find
Go deep inside and bring us some light, bring us some light
Sing your song, or just scream it out loud
Tell the world what it’s all about
Be yourself and go deep in your heart
Sing your song and bring it all out

Delelem
Delelem was the name of the boy that once told me that I could gome and go
I could pass when I wanted the door was open for me to say hi, hello!
Delelem was the name of boy that keeps the water warm or cold
Delelem please let the water flow, Delelem please let the lotus grow
Delelem please let the water flow, Delelem please let the lotus grow
E foi assim que o encontro se ocasionou, Delelem com a pessoa que hoje sou. Estava eu dado ao labor de limpar toda esta confusão que sentia por dentro, todas estas paredes cheias lodo, verde! Enquanto compreendia que era tudo água, água e água… água estagnada, já há tempos parada, que não me deixava mentir… olhava a água suja que me servia de espelho e aí estava, Delelem. Foi assim que encontrei este ser, este mestre... Era um tipo curioso… mmm não o sei descrever muito bem, mas era mais velho do que eu, por estranho que pareça, uns nove meses, eu diria!
Delelem cuidava de toda esta água que eu tinha bem dentro. Assim que o vi assustei-me, más Delelem, ao ver-me, transformou a sua pele, cheia de escamas, num sorriso, era um ser muito simpático, amável. Disse-me que o podia visitar sempre que quisesse, que na realidade estava muito sozinho, queria um pouco mais de companhia, que sozinho era muito difícil ter a água sempre, sempre quentinha… E sim, prometi que ia voltar!
Delelem please let the water flow, Delelem please let the lotus grow
Delelem please let the water flow, Delelem please let the lotus grow
Delelem was the name of boy that keeps the water warm or cold

Drop and let go
So long she said, so long she
So long she said, so long she
She said so long, so long she said so long and I said
I said too long, too long I said too long and we said
She said so long, so long she said so long and I said
I said too long, too long I said too long and we said
Drop and let go, drop and let go…
I thank you, I thank me, I thank us and drop
I thank you, I thank me, I thank us and let go
