LETRAS DE CANCIONES DE JUNIOR MACKENZIE
NOW THAT WE ARE DEAD
RISE AND SHINE
THESE ARE BAD TIMES FOR BEAUTY…
THESE ARE BAD TIMES FOR GENTLENESS…
BROTHERS, SISTERS…
GET READY ´CAUSE HARD TIMES ARE COMIN´.
THOSE WHO ARE AT THE TOP SEEK TO GO EVEN HIGHER AND SQUASH THOSE BELOW THEM, WHILE THEY TRY TO STAY ON THEIR FEET WITH THE LITTLE LIFE THEY HAVE LEFT WHEN THE DAY IS OVER.
THEY WANT US WEAK AND UNEDUCATED, POOR AND SUBMISSIVE BUT ALWAYS AMUSED BY EMPTY ENTERTAINMENT.
NOW THAT WE ARE DEAD IN LIFE, IT´S THE MOMENT TO UNITE OUR STRENGHT.
IT IS TIME FOR US TO LOVE AND RESPECT EACH OTHER, LOOK EACH OTHER IN THE EYE AND TRY TO SAVE THIS LITTLE ROCK WE CALLED EARTH.
NOW THAT WE ARE DEAD, THIS IS THE BEST TIME TO SING.
LET´S SING ALONG. MAYBE IT WON´T SAVE US, BUT IT WILL CALM OUR SPIRITS.
AFTER THE RAIN SUNLIGHT FOLLOWS
NOW CLEAR YOUR HEAD, DON´T BE SHALLOW
COME MEET MY FRIENDS PAIN AND SORROW
THEY´LL STAY WITH US ´TILL TOMORROW
YOU MAY NOW GO IN PEACE.
RISE AND SHINE, SISTERS AND BROTHERS.
RISE AND SHINE…
BIRD WITH NO FEATHERS
THINGS YOU WANT AIN´T THINGS YOU NEED
LESS IS MORE
SO REST IN PEACE
ARE YOU DEAF OR JUST OLD?
YOU ARE SO FAT THAT YOU CAN´T EVEN SEE YOUR OWN TWO FEET, MAN!
RUSTY HEART
FROZEN LOVE
I´M NOT LIKE YOU
NEITHER AM I YOURS
I HAD TO DIE TO BRING MYSELF UP AGAIN
´CAUSE BEING SO CLOSE TO YOU WAS LIKE A LIVING HELL
AND AT LEAST IT WASN´T ME WHO DID THINGS WRONG
AND IT FELT LIKE WASTING WORDS TALKING TO WALLS
ALL YOUR MONEY WILL NOT SAVE YOUR LIFE OR BRING YOU BACK THE TIME YOU LOST
NOW YOU FIND YOURSELF IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE
POOR OLD MAN
POOR OLD BOY
SUCH A MESS
WHAT A SHAME
I HAD TO FIGHT NOT TO GIVE UP ON MYSELF AGAIN
´CAUSE BEING SO CLOSE TO YOU WAS LIKE A LIVING HELL
AND AT LEAST IT WASN´T ME WHO DID THINGS WRONG
AND IT FELT LIKE WASTING WORDS TALKING TO WALLS
ALL YOUR MONEY WILL NOT SAVE YOUR LIFE OR BRING YOU BACK THE TIME YOU LOST
NOW YOU FIND YOURSELF IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE
THE SLAYER
ARE WE HAPPY AGAIN JUST TO SEE HOW OUR PAIN FLOWS?
LET´S FIND SOMEONE TO SLAY IN OUR HEADS BUT NOT ME AGAIN
IF EVERY THING IS IN THE RIGHT PLACE, WHY DO WE KEEP MOURNING OUR LOSS?
NOW GET OUT OF THE BED, IT´S ABOUT TIME YOU’RE GONNA BE LATE
AND YOU´LL FIND NO ONE TO BLAME
THERE´S NOTHING TO REGRET IF YOU THINK YOU WERE FRAMED
I KNOW YOU TRIED TO DO YOUR BEST
YOU NEED TO SLOW DOWN AND TAKE A MINUTE ON YOUR OWN
PEOPLE YOU HAVE NEAR SOON WILL DISAPPEAR, NO NEED TO DROWN YOURSELF IN TEARS
SOMEBODY SHOULD TELL YOU TO FUCK OFF
LONELY STAR, LONELY AND BLUE
YOU´VE GOT NOTHING TO LOSE
ARE YOU HAPPY AGAIN?
NO ONE´S COMING TO SAVE YOU
THERE´S NO TIME TO PLAY GAMES
THERE´S NO ONE HOME
AND WHO´S TO BLAME?
THERE´S NOTHING TO REGRET IF YOU THINK YOU WERE FRAMED
I KNOW YOU TRIED TO DO YOUR BEST
YOU NEED TO SLOW DOWN AND TAKE A MINUTE ON YOUR OWN
PEOPLE YOU HAVE NEAR SOON WILL DISAPPEAR, NO NEED TO DROWN YOURSELF IN TEARS
SOMEBODY SHOULD TELL YOU TO FUCK OFF
LONELY STAR, LONELY AND BLUE
YOU´VE GOT NOTHING TO LOSE
HALF DEAD
YOU CAN´T STOP IT ONCE IT JUST BEGINS
JUST BE QUIET SO THAT YOU FIT IN
THEN YOU WAKE UP IN THE MORNING AND EVERYTHING SEEMS FINE
BUT THE MOOD JUST FEELS LIKE TURNING AS THE DAY GOES BY
AND YOU´LL GET HOME HALF DEAD
YOU CAN´T CONTROL IT NOW YOU’RE A PART OF IT
WHEN YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH THINGS YOU HAVE ACHIEVED
DON´T YOU LECTURE ME ´BOUT CRAWLING IF YOU CAN NOT STAND UP
WHEN YOU MOVE LIKE FRESH STILL WATER ´BOUT TO VAPORIZE
AND YOU´LL GET OLD HALF DEAD
THEN YOU WAKE UP IN THE MORNING AND EVERYTHING SEEMS FINE
BUT THE MOOD JUST FEELS LIKE TURNING AS THE DAY GOES BY
DON´T YOU LECTURE ME ´BOUT CRAWLING IF YOU CAN NOT STAND UP
WHEN YOU MOVE LIKE FRESH STILL WATER ´BOUT TO VAPORIZE
AND YOU´LL GET OLD HALF DEAD
LONELINESS
LONELINESS,
HOW COME YOU ARE ALWAYS IN MY WAY?
I TRY TO BE HARD TO FIND BUT YOU ARE ALWAYS THERE
FOLLOW ME,
WE´LL WALK TO THE TOP OF THAT CLIFF
I FEEL THE NEED TO EMBRACE YOU TIGHT AND JUMP OFF TOGETHER
LONELINESS,
DON´T YOU EVER GET TIRED OF SEEING MY FACE?
ONE OF US SHOULD BRING THIS TO AN END
SOME COMPANY WILL MAKE THINGS BETTER
GIVE ME A BREAK!
WHY DON´T YOU GO OUT AND MAKE SOME FRIENDS?
GO GET A LIFE AND LET ME BE OR THIS WILL LAST FOREVER
(DON´T STOP HONEY)
CHOKE ME TILL I DIE
SO I DON´T HAVE TO WASTE MORE TIME SHAPING MY FEELINGS
HOLD ME TILL I SLEEP
I DIDN´T TAKE MY PILLS AND I FEEL HAZY
YES, I FEEL HAZY
OH LORD!
HERE WE FLOAT AGAIN
ON LITTLE BLACK HOLES AND EMPTY DAYS
I´M BUILDING MY OWN SICK FAMILY
THE TIME IS NOW OR NEVER
(DON´T STOP HONEY)
CHOKE ME TILL I DIE
SO I DON´T HAVE TO WASTE MORE TIME SHAPING MY FEELINGS
HOLD ME TILL I SLEEP
I DIDN´T TAKE MY PILLS AND I FEEL HAZY
YES, I FEEL HAZY
DON´T BECOME A LIAR
WHAT BRINGS THE CHANGE IF WE SPEND OUR TIME SINGING THE SAME OLD SONGS?
(BUT NO ONE HEARS YOU OUT)
HELL IS FREEZING ´CAUSE THE ANGEL OF DESIRE STOLE THE SPARK THAT MAKES THE FIRE GLOW
(AND IT´S GETTING COLD)
WHAT IF WE WOKE UP TO START OVER DOING WORSE WHAT WE ONCE DID WRONG?
SOMEWHERE SOMEONE IS DYING SO THAT YOU CAN DRESS YOUR FILTHY SOUL
(DON´T BECOME A LIAR)
SAVE YOUR WORDS I KNOW YOU´RE BY MY SIDE
NO TRUTH IS NEEDED I CAN LOOK INTO YOUR TWISTED MIND
HIDE YOUR CLOCK SO THAT TIME DOESN´T GO BY
I´VE GOT THE FEELING THAT THE FUN IS JUST ABOUT TO START
I LEFT THE CITY ´CAUSE I COULDN’T BREATHE AMONG ALL THAT KILLING NOISE
(AND YOU COULDN’T SLEEP)
I MOVED TO THE COUNTRY WHEN I FELT IT WAS THE MOMENT TO GO BACK HOME
(YOU WERE SO ALONE)
SO THAT ONE DAY I CAN FIND MYSELF NAKED PLAYING WITH DOLLS
I´LL SWEEP THE FLOOR WITH ALL THE PICTURES FROM THE PLACES I COULDN´T GO
(DON´T BECOME A LIAR)
SAVE YOUR WORDS I KNOW YOU´RE BY MY SIDE
NO TRUTH IS NEEDED I CAN LOOK INTO YOUR TWISTED MIND
HIDE YOUR CLOCK SO THAT TIME DOESN´T GO BY
I´VE GOT THE FEELING THAT THE FUN IS JUST ABOUT TO START
SAVE YOUR WORDS I KNOW YOU´RE BY MY SIDE
NO TRUTH IS NEEDED I CAN LOOK INTO YOUR TWISTED MIND
HIDE YOUR CLOCK SO THAT TIME DOESN´T GO BY
I´VE GOT THE FEELING THAT, I´VE GOT THE FEELING THAT, I´VE GOT THE FEELING THAT THE FUN IS JUST ABOUT TO START
KEY IN THE SEA
I WALK ALONE TRYING TO AVOID MY MISTAKES
´CAUSE WHEN THE DAY IS DONE I HAVE TO PUT MYSELF BACK TO BED
AND THEN IT GETS WORSE
I WALK ALONE AVOIDING PEOPLE THAT CARE ´BOUT ME
THIS OLD HEART IS LOCKED
GO FIND ITS KEY IN THE SEA
TRY NOT TO GET LOST
HOW FAR WILL YOU GO JUST TO ACCEPT THAT WE HAVE LOST CONTROL ONCE AGAIN?
I CHECK MY PHONE TO SEE IF THERE´S SOMEBODY OUT THERE
I WISH SHE WAS GONE TO FREE SOME SPACE IN MY HEAD
´CAUSE IT´S GETTING WORSE
HOW FAR WILL YOU GO JUST TO ACCEPT THAT WE HAVE LOST CONTROL ONCE AGAIN?
UNFORGIVEN
I DON´T LOVE YOU ANYMORE
AND THE MORE I THINK ABOUT IT THE MORE I NEED YOU GONE
I WILL WAIT ANOTHER DAY ´CAUSE NOW IT´S GETTING LATE
WE SPOKE THE TRUTH SOMETIMES
I DON´T BLAME YOU ANYMORE
IT WAS ME WHO DIDN´T SEE WHAT WAS GOING ON
DON´T BEHAVE LIKE SOMEONE ELSE
I KNOW THAT ONCE YOU CARED
WE SPOKE THE TRUTH SOMETIMES
SO MANY WORDS
SO MANY THOUGHTS
AND MOST OF THEM ARE UNFORGIVEN
COMMUNICATION BREAKING DOWN THAT´S WHY WE STILL BEHAVE LIKE CHILDREN
YOU DON´T NEED ME ANYMORE
AND THE MORE I TALK ABOUT IT THE MORE I FEEL IGNORED
I WON´T WASTE ANOTHER DAY
PRETENDING DOESN´T MAKE SENSE
I LIKE TO LIE SOMETIMES
SO MANY WORDS
SO MANY THOUGHTS
AND MOST OF THEM ARE UNFORGIVEN
COMMUNICATION BREAKING DOWN THAT´S WHY WE STILL BEHAVE LIKE CHILDREN
I DON´T LOVE YOU ANYMORE
AND I WISH THAT YOU WERE GONE
CLOSING TIME
LISTEN, I THINK WE´RE HEADING NOWHERE
WE FOLLOWED THE WIND BLOWING
LIKE AUTUMN LEAVES JUST FALLING
LISTEN, I THINK WE ARE DYING SLOWLY
WITHOUT NOTICING WE ARE HOLDING HEAVY GRUDGES ON OUR SHOULDERS FOR TOO LONG
TIME IS SHORT FOR THOSE WHO REALLY NEED IT
THEY DRIFT AWAY BECOMING GREEDY
I CAN HEAR THEM WALKING TO MY DOOR
THIS WILL LAST JUST ´TILL NEXT YEAR
I WILL TEAR YOU APART MY DEAR
I CAN SEE THEM COMING THROUGH MY WALL
WE MISS THE DAYS WHEN WE COULD LEAVE OUR HOMES
MAYBE COMPLAINING IS JUST WORTHLESS
I GUESS WE GOTTA LEARN TO LIVE ACCEPTING WE ARE HOPELESS
SOMEHOW I FELT A CHANGE WAS COMING
I THOUGHT I WAS STRONG ENOUGH TO FACE IT BEING LONELY
WELL, I WAS WRONG
TIME IS SHORT FOR THOSE WHO REALLY NEED IT
THEY DRIFT AWAY BECOMING GREEDY
I CAN HEAR THEM WALKING TO MY DOOR
THIS WILL LAST JUST ´TILL NEXT YEAR
I WILL TEAR YOU APART MY DEAR
I CAN SEE THEM COMING THROUGH MY WALL
WE MISS THE DAYS WHEN WE COULD LEAVE OUR HOMES
GOOD BYE LOVE
WHO DO YOU KISS BEFORE GOING TO BED?
I GIVE MYSELF A HUG TO FEEL OK
WHAT DID YOU DO WHEN YOU HAD JUST ONE LIFE?
NOW I SEE THAT I WAS DEAD INSIDE
THERE IT GOES
GOOD BYE LOVE
WE COULD BE SO GOOD TOGETHER IN YOUR HOME
WHO DO YOU CALL TO FIND SOME PEACE OF MIND?
THERE´S NO ONE YOU LEFT YOUR FRIENDS BEHIND
WHAT CAN WE DO TO TRY TO FIX THIS MESS?
IF ALL WE´VE GOT IS TIME BUT NOT A DIME
THERE IT GOES
GOOD BYE LOVE
WE COULD BE SO GOOD TOGETHER IN YOUR HOME
LET´S SPEND JUST ONE LAST NIGHT TOGETHER
WE ARE OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT NOTHING LASTS FOREVER
THERE IT GOES
GOOD BYE LOVE
WE COULD BE SO GOOD TOGETHER IN YOUR HOME
SUNNY DAYS
SUNNY DAYS MEANT NOTHING IF YOU WERE NOT BY MY SIDE
LET´S GET IT ON
JUST GO INSIDE
THE STORM IS NOT THAT FAR
GOOD OLD DAYS OF WINE AND ROSES THAT WE HAVE LEFT BEHIND
I´M MOVING ON
I TRY TO SMILE MOST OF THE TIME
THE ONLY THING I KEEP FROM YOU IS A LOUSY PAIR OF SHOES THAT YOU USED TO WEAR WHILE RUNNING NAKED IN MY PLACE
WELL, THAT WAS OK
SUNNY DAYS MEANT NOTHING IF YOU WERE NOT BY MY SIDE
LET´S GET IT ON
JUST GO INSIDE
THE STORM IS NOT THAT FAR
I´M MOVING ON
I TRY TO SMILE MOST OF THE TIME
