She is Love

Oh, when the sunshine beckons to you
And your wings begin to unfold
The thoughts you bring and the songs you sing
Are gonna keep me from the cold
And if the soul is hidden among you
And its words may rule my soul
You can fill me up with what you've got
'cause my heart's meant to keep it old

She is love, and her ways are high and steep
She is love, and I believe her when she speaks
Love, and her ways are high and steep
She is love, and I believe I do believe her when she speaks

You read all my thoughts of passion
And the dreams of my delight
Whatever stirs my mottled frame
Well, you keep it warm at night
I don't know where you come from
And no, I haven't got a clue
All I know is I'm in love
With someone who loves me too

She is love, and her ways are high and steep
She is love, and I believe her when she speaks
Love, and her ways are high and steep
She is love, and I believe I do believe her when she speaks

She is love, and her ways are high and steep
She is love, and I believe her when she speaks
She is love, and her ways are high and steep
She is love, and I believe I do believe her when she speaks

I do believe her when she speaks
I do believe her when she speaks
I do believe her when she speaks

Mystical Machine Gun

Alien identities don't hide your pretty face from me,

You awoke to the riddle of your life but no-one was there for you,

Open to where you first began as a nicotine junkie, singing for a kodacam,

Are you glad to see how far you've come?

You're a wizard in a blizzard,

A mystical machine gun!

Watch the skies,

For the mystical machine gun fire.

Alien identities don't hide that special place from me,

You walked through a fire with a ten headed lion and turned on your destiny,

Open up, forget your life,

Breathe in, breathe out, retain a sense of suicide,

Are you glad to see how far you've come?

You're a wizard in a blizzard,

A mystical machine gun!

Watch the skies,

For the mystical machine gun fire.

Well you've got to be stronger now than them,

Now you've got to be strong

You'll be singing the song of life 'til then,

You'll just have to be strong.

Febbre

Ci sono ricaduto, ammalato ancora della vecchia malattia, e questa volta più grave delle altre volte. Non so se guarirò, e di certo non ho intenzione di provare a curarmi da questa nuova febbre gialla. E a chi mi darà dell’incoerente, rispondo con una citazione di un cantautore italiano che, ironicamente, ha scelto il nome di Mao:

 

E’ bello sentire febbre
sulla mia pelle sudore steso
sangue che bolle avere addosso
questa scossa di un ossessione
che non molla e intorno gira
l'universo sto ritrovando
il giusto verso così speciale
così normale e non m'importa
ciò che ho perso ora che il caldo
è passato lingua ribelle
è il mio alleato sono felice
di aver provato cosa vuol dire...

avere febbre

avere febbre

così speciale così normale
così importante la mia febbre
avere avuto la mia febbre
il gusto dolce della febbre
cosa vuol dire avere…
