“Worry is the secret weapon perpetrated upon us by the dark forces of the world that lurk in the shape of fear, uncertainty, confusion, and loss.
We, on the other hand, have our own secret weapon against these incorporeal fiends.
It is laughter.”

Vera Nazarian, ”The Perpetual Calendar of Inspiration”

”Cât timp au să te-nşele parfumuri şi culori?
Ce-i rău, ce-i bine – Cartea pe cei naivi înveţi-i.
De-ai fi tu chiar izvorul Zemzem, chiar apa vieţii,
Tot în pământ la urmă tăcut ai să cobori.”

Omar Khayyam, ”Suprema înțelepciune – detașarea”

It’s a little bit funny
This feeling inside
I’m not one of those who can easily hide
I don’t have much money, but boy if I did
I’d buy a big house where we both could live

If I was a sculptor, ha
But then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show
I know it’s not much, but it’s the best I can do
My gift is my song, and this one’s for you

And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It may be quite simple, but now that it’s done
I hope you don’t mind
I hope you don’t mind
That I put down in the words
How wonderful life is while you’re in the world

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses, well they’ve got me quite cross
But the sun’s been quite kind
While I wrote this song
It’s for people like you that keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting
But these things I do
You see I’ve forgotten, if they’re green or they’re blue
Anyway the thing is, what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I’ve ever seen

And you can tell everybody
This is the song
It may be quite simple, but now that it’s done
I hope you don’t mind
I hope you don’t mind
That I put down in the words
How wonderful life is while you’re in the world

I hope you don’t mind
I hope you don’t mind
That I put down in the words
How wonderful life is while you’re in the world

A white house, a white room
The program of today
Lights on, switch on
Your eyes are far away

The map represents you
And the tape is your voice
Follow all along you
Till you recognize the choice

I take pictures
Photographic pictures

Bright light, dark room
Bright light, dark room

I said I’d write a letter
But I never got the time
And looking to the day
I mesmerize the light

The years I spend just thinking
Of a moment we both knew
A second boss looking into
It seems it can’t be true

I take pictures
Photographic pictures

Bright light, dark room
Bright light, dark room

Carleen Anderson – ”Nervous breakdown”

Her soul went runnin’ to find out if she’d been misplaced
How could I be lost stop the world let me get off
No peace could she find, the devil kept messin’ with her mind
The girl was so tough, but one day she had enough

Pardon the miss, she’s gotta right to have a nervous breakdown

Her baby’s daddy left, she still got on fine
She fell in love again but lost one more time
Woe to the day her heart began to decay
She tried to fight but then her will ran away

To lose a dream is very hard to live with
Looked in the lost and found could not find it
Blessed be the child God gave her, who wipes her tears
Lovin’ the mother who’s loved him all his years

But she was drownin’ and could not come
In from out there seemed like no way out
Storm and thunder all about no peace could she find
The devil kept messin’ with her mind
The girl was so tough, but one day she had enough

Pardon the miss, she’s gotta right to have a nervous breakdown

Balancing one minute then her rope got too thin
Searchin’ for solid ground to turn her life around
No stranger to the struggle, she knows how to recover
Won’t let the fall do her in she will stand up again

Lawd, lawd, lawd, yeah, lawd have mercy, yeah, nervous breakdown

„Chiar dacă lucrurile sunt complicate, încâlcite şi ai senzaţia că eşti neputincios, că nu poţi face nimic, nu dispera şi nu te înfuria. Nu cumva să-l iei pe „imposibil” în braţe. Orice e posibil, numai că trebuie să te consolezi cu ideea că va dura probabil foarte mult şi trebuie să iei totul uşor, uşor.”

I’m gonna fight ‘em off
A seven nation army couldn’t hold me back
They’re gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back

And I’m talking to myself at night
Because I can’t forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette

And the message coming from my eyes
Says „Leave it alone”

Don’t wanna hear about it
Every single one’s got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the Hounds of Hell

And if I catch it coming back my way
I’m gonna serve it to you
And that ain’t what you want to hear
But that’s what I’ll do

And the feeling coming from my bones
Says „Find a home”

I’m goin’ to Wichita
Far from this opera forevermore
I’m gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore

And I’m bleeding, and I’m bleeding, and I’m bleeding
Right before the Lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me
And I will sing no more

And the stains coming from my blood
Tell me „Go back home”

We can walk in straight lines
We can’t see quite right
We’ve lost the plot
And we can’t get it back
So let’s lose ourselves
Let’s lose ourselves

Can you spot the English here?

Let’s pick a fight on whomever we like
Cause we’re never wrong
Nobody likes us
We don’t care
So let’s lose ourselves
Let’s lose ourselves

Can you spot the English here?

We can see it for real
But it doesn’t make sense
We’re the outsiders
We can see all this speech
Come staggering out
And we can climb its way
To the top of that cloud

I’m away with the fairies now
I’m away with the fairies now
I’m away with the fairies now
I’m away with the fairies now

This familiar environment
Gets my lungs confused
I breathe in every particle
That you drive thru
That you drive thru

Well can you spot the English here?

We can see it for real
But it doesn’t make sense
We’re the outsiders
We can see all this speech
Come staggering out
And it can its way to the top
Of that cloud

Oh I’m away with the fairies now
I’m away with the fairies now
I’m away with the fairies now
I’m away with the fairies now

Well, I don’t know where I’m goin’,
But I sure know where I’ve been,
Hanging on the promises of the songs of yesterday.
Well I’ve made up my mind,
No, I’m not wasting no more time,
‘cause here I go.

You know I’m looking for an answer,
But I never seem to find what I’m searching for,
Oh Lord, I pray you give me strength to carry on
‘cos I know what it means,
Oh, to walk along the lonely street of dreams.

Hey, hey,
Here I go again on my own,
Goin’ down the only road I’ve ever known,
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone,
An’ I’ve made up my mind,
Oh, I’m not wasting no more time.

Here I go,
I guess, I’m just, another heart in need of rescue,
Waiting on love’s sweet, sweet charity,
I’m gonna hold on for the rest of my days,
You know I, ‘cos I know what it means,
Oh, to walk along the lonely, lonely street of dreams.

Ya, here I go again on my own,
Goin’ down the only road I’ve ever known,
Oh, like a drifter I was born to walk alone, ya,
An’ I’ve made up my mind, oh,
Oh, I’m not wasting one more minute of my time,
‘cos here I go, oh…
Oh, here I go,
Watch me,
Here I go ah… gain.

Here I go again on my own,
Goin’ down the only road I’ve ever known,
Oh, oh, like a drifter I was born to walk alone,
I said, here I go, here I go, here I go,

Ye… ah,
Here I go again on my own,
Goin’ down the only road I’ve, I’ve, I’ve ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone, yeah,

”Pardaillan se ridică, înaintă cât putu, întinse mâna şi apucă legătura de chei. Într o clipă descuie enormele lacăte ale cătuşelor care i împiedicau gleznele. Apoi, voi să pornească. Dar un fel de deznădejde furioasă îi cuprinse sufletul.
Pardaillan nu mai putea merge! De abia se mai putea ţine pe picioare. Cunoscu o clipă de disperare, de spaimă, apoi se stăpâni şi şi udă mâinile în apa stătută din băltoacele podelii. Răcoarea aceasta îl învioră definitiv. Atunci se ridică în picioare.
– Vreau, scrâşni el cu dinţii încleştaţi de sforţarea de voinţă… Vreau!… Deci, pot!… Vreau să umblu!…
Şi astfel se împlini acea minune, ca forţa firească a sufletului să învingă suferinţele trupului. Pardaillan, istovit, se ridică şi păşi… luă în mână felinarul şi legătura de chei, ieşind astfel din mormântul său.”

”Emoţiile mortale sunt intense, palide şi egale. Cei cu adevărat în stare să sufere sufleteşte au şi orgoliul de a refula totul, au şi durerea inferiorităţii lor de o clipă – şi poate că tocmai această comprimare mistuie şi doare mai mult, deci e de presupus că tocmai cei mândri, care îşi ascund simţirea, sunt cei care, şi mai ales prin asta, suferă cu adevărat.”

I didn’t want to know
I just didn’t want to know
Best to keep things in the shallow end
Cause I never quite learned how to swim

I just didn’t want to know
Didn’t want, didn’t want,
Didn’t want, didn’t want

Close my eyes just to look at you
Taken by the seamless vision
I close my eyes,
Ignore the smoke,
Ignore the smoke

Call it aftermath, she’s turning blue
Such a lovely color for you
Call it aftermath, she’s turning blue
While I just sit and stare at you

Because I don’t want to know
I didn’t want to know
I just didn’t want to know
I just didn’t want

Mistook their nods for an approval
Just ignore the smoke and smile

Call it aftermath, she’s turning blue
Such a lovely color for you
Call it aftermath, she’s turning blue
Such a perfect color for your eyes
Call it aftermath, she’s turning blue
Such a lovely color for you
Call it aftermath, she’s turning blue
While I just sit and stare at you

I don’t want to know

You with the sad eyes
Don’t be discouraged
Oh, I realize
It’s hard to take courage

In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
And the darkness inside you
Make you feel so small

But I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that’s why I love you
So don’t be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow

Show me a smile then
Don’t be unhappy, can’t remember when
I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
And you’ve taken all you can bare
You call me up
Because you know I’ll be there

And I’ll see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that’s why I love you
So don’t be afraid to let it show
Your true colors
Your true colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow

(Can’t remember when I last saw you laugh)

If this world makes you crazy
You’ve taken all you can bare
You call me up
Because you know I’ll be there

And I’ll see your true colors shinin’ through
I see your true colors
And that’s why I love you
So don’t be afraid to let it show

Your true colors
True colors
True colors a shining through
I see your true colors
And that’s why I love you
So don’t be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Like a rainbow

Fui bailar no meu batel
Além do mar cruel
E o mar bramindo
Diz que eu fui roubar
A luz sem par
Do teu olhar tão lindo

Vem saber se o mar terá razão
Vem cá ver bailar meu coração

Se eu bailar no meu batel
Não vou ao mar cruel
E nem lhe digo aonde eu fui cantar
Sorrir, bailar, viver, sonhar contigo

Vem saber se o mar terá razão
Vem cá ver bailar meu coração

Se eu bailar no meu batel
Não vou ao mar cruel
E nem lhe digo aonde eu fui cantar
Sorrir, bailar, viver, sonhar contigo

Through the storms and the light
Babe, you’ve stood by my side
And life is wine
But there are days in this life
When you see the teeth marks of time
Two lovers divide
Sound meets sound, babe
The echoes they sorround
And know that we need is one thing
Now what is there to allow?
Babe, it’s time we give something new a try
Oh, alone we may fight
So, just let us be three
And baby tonight
I see your lips are on fire
And life is wine
Now the windows are open the moon is so bright
There’s no one can tell us what love brings, you and I
Sound meets sound, babe
Her echoes they surround
And know that we need is one thing
Now what is there to allow
Babe, it’s time we give something new a try
Oh, alone we may fight
So just let us be three, tonight
Through the storms and the light
Baby, you’ve stood by my side
And life is wine
You feel the sweet breath of time
It’s whispering, its truth not mine
There’s no I in threesome
And I am all for it
Babe, it’s time we give something new a try
Oh, alone we may fight
And feathers bend like trees in the moonlight
Babe, it’s time we give something new a try
Oh, alone we may fight
So just let us be three tonight

[Verse 1]
When the world is on your shoulder
Gotta straighten up your act and boogie down
If you can’t hang with the feelin’
Then there ain’t no room for you in this part of town

[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause we’re the party people night and day
Livin’ crazy, that’s the only way

[Chorus]
So tonight, gotta leave that nine to five upon the shelf
And just enjoy yourself
Groove, let the madness in the music get to you
Life ain’t so bad at all
If you live it off the wall
Life ain’t so bad at all (Live life off the wall)
Live your life off the wall (Live it off the wall)

[Verse 2]
You can shout out all you want to
‘Cause there ain’t no sin in folks all gettin’ loud
If you take the chance and do it
Then there ain’t no one who’s gonna put you down

[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause we’re the party people night and day
Livin’ crazy, that’s the only way

[Chorus]
So tonight, gotta leave that nine to five upon the shelf
And just enjoy yourself (Come on, and)
Groove, let the madness in the music get to you
Life ain’t so bad at all
If you live it off the wall
Life ain’t so bad at all (Live life off the wall)
Live your life off the wall (Live it off the wall)

[Bridge]
Do what you want to do
There ain’t no rules, it’s up to you (Ain’t no rules, it’s all up to you)
It’s time to come alive
And party on right through the night (All right)

[Verse 3]
Gotta hide your inhibitions
Gotta let that fool loose deep inside your soul
Wanna see an exhibition (A-hee!)
Better do it now before you get too old

[Pre-Chorus]
‘Cause we’re the party people night and day
Livin’ crazy, that’s the only way

[Chorus]
So tonight, gotta leave that nine to five upon the shelf
And just enjoy yourself (Come on, and)
Groove, let the madness in the music get to you
Life ain’t so bad at all
If you live it off the wall
Life ain’t so bad at all (Live life off the wall)
Live your life off the wall
So tonight, gotta leave that nine to five upon the shelf
And just enjoy yourself (Come on, and)
Groove, let the madness in the music get to you
Life ain’t so bad at all
If you live it off the wall

Tonight, gotta leave that nine to five upon the shelf (Yeah)
And just enjoy yourself (Come on, and)
Groove, let the madness in the music get to you
Life ain’t so bad at all (Wanna live)

Tonight, gotta leave that nine to five upon the shelf (Nine to five)
And just enjoy yourself (Come on, and)
Groove, let the madness in the music get to you
Life ain’t so bad at all (Yeah)

It takes a lot of time
There’s so much you’ve got to leave behind
And hold it like a treasure if you can’t find
Something good in this world
Something good in this world
There’s so much hard earth to dig
In these days of curse that we live
I’m absolutely sure that in the midst
There’s something good in this world
There’s something good in this world
And life will try to take
your inner sense and brace
and no matter what comes to your door
you’ve got to keep looking
for something good in this world
And life will try to take
your inner sense and your grace
and no matter what comes to your door you’ve got to keep looking
for something good in this world
Oh keep on looking…

[whispered]
Could you come any closer?
Come stand next to me
Can we steal a moment?
Come away with me

Dreams fade
Like water
In the dark night
Of your soul
Can we say
„nothing else matters
But the dreaming that we hold”
I’ll just use my imagination
Cause it’s always going to turn out right
Please don’t confuse my emotions
And let me be alone tonight

[Chorus]
I need someone to be there
And to hold me
When the rain falls
Won’t you be the one to be there for me
When the rain falls down?

Let it fall
Let it all fall
Let it all fall down

Time, it’s not ours any more
It’s the precious moments we share
Oh, feel your heart beat with mine
I know what’s on your mind
Step. by step
We’re losing control
But…
Take a chance it will be forever
And we’ll never have to say good-bye
Fill me up for a lifetime
Don’t let me be alone tonight

[Chorus]
I need someone to be there
And to hold me
When the rain falls
Won’t you be the one to be there for me
When the rain falls down?

Let it fall
Let it all fall
Let it all fall down

[whispered]
Those precious moments
That we share
Standing in the rain

[Chorus]
I need someone to be there
And to hold me
When the rain falls
Won’t you be the one to be there for me
When the rain falls down?

Let it fall
Let it all fall
Let it all fall down

“The misuse of creation begins when we no longer recognize any higher instance than ourselves, when we see nothing else but ourselves.”

Pope Benedict XVI
