Flying Free

I'm making my way
Out of Today
Into tomorrow
No sin, no sorrow

Breaking new ground
Safe and sound
Facing my fears
No blood, no tears

Bridge
Wouldn't you just love to watch me fall?
Well, I won't give you the taste of seeing me crawl

Chorus
I'm passing by
What you want for me
You bet it feels so good
To be flying free
Pushing aside
Someone I cannot be
I'm running wild
I'm flying free

I'm tracing my fate
Setting the record straight
Losing inhibbition
No shame, no condition

I'm putting all at stake
Now or never, make or break
I'll take a shot on this season
No worries, no reason

Chorus

This Is About Me

Don't look at me like that
It's not as easy as you think
You take my happiness for a fact
When I feel like I could sink

This is not what I had planned
But there's no other way
I didn't mean to make you mad
And, trust me, I'd rather stay

Bridge
Make an effort to understand
To see things from where I stand
Don't see an end, see a start
I'm leaving town but I leave you my heart

Chorus
It's not about you
Something you did
Or didn't do
It's not about this place
There's nothing about it
I can't embrace
It's about being free
And trying to find the peace I need
This is about me

Don't think that I forsake
Everything you did for me
You always give and never take
You made me who I'm meant to be

Please don't hate me now
That I need you more than ever
If you just stand by me, somehow
I promise we'll make it through, together

Bridge

Chorus

It's Not Your Fault

Trouble’s always looking for me
Or am I looking for it
And I just can’t see?

Am I in this because I wanted?
Should I’ve tried harder
Not to get disappointed?

Bridge
It seems like I always get caught
Will I get hurt or will I not?
The answer is always the same
But you’re not the one to blame

Chorus
It’s not your fault that I fell down
I should have looked well all around
It’s not your fault my train got off the tracks
I should’ve known the safety it lacks
It’s not your fault I’m slowly dying
I should have forced myself to keep trying

Looking both sides before crossing the street
Apparently is not enough
You could still get hit

Did you run a red light?
Did I stray from the crosswalk?
After all who’s right?

Bridge
Pointing the finger at you
Is always easier than looking at me
Even if what kills me is the mess you do
I’m to blame because I refused to see

Chorus

Damsel in Distress

Be free
Stand up and fight for what you want
Come see
Just what a woman's made of, don't
Take it
Nobody has the right to tell you what to do

Bridge
I'm in charge of me
No one tells me who to be
You think I need you
But it's not true
I don't need no hero

Chorus
Hey, hey, I don't want you to save me
Hey, hey, so stop overprotecting me
Hey, hey, I've done well so far
Don't be fooled by what you see
My life can be a mess
But I'm no damsel in distress


Let me
Show you who I really am
You'll miss me
But I don't really give a damn
I've had it
I won't take no more of your authority

Bridge
Take a look at me
Just tell me what it is you see
If you don't respect me
You're not worth it
So just leave me alone

Chorus

Cognitive Dissonance

This is not who I am
I don't know what's wrong
I am being so lame
When I should be strong

I've always hated that romantic shit
Always hated a commercial cliché
But as much as I hate to just admit
I miss you if you're not here everyday

Bridge
Stranded mind, what's wrong, what's right?
Stranded heart, it's the end or the start?
Wait! Let me just take a break
For my own sake
Or I'll lose it for good
Believe me I could

Chorus
I love the way you smile
Hate it when you smile for her
Love your hazel eyes
Hate how you stare at me, so deeply
And yet don't make a move
Overdue, but seeing though
Like you've got nothing to prove today
How am I gonna tell love from hate


Are you really playing games?
Or is my mind playing tricks?
Will I be the one who tames
Your bohemian romantic wits?

This doubt doesn't have room in my head
It is already busy with the crap I feel
Whenever I try to rest in my bed
There you are, in dreams it almost seems real

Bridge

Chorus

My Fairytale

No Sleeping Beauty I am
More of a dwarfless Snow White
Like her I have to find a scam
To catch my own Mr. Right

The knight in shinning armor
Never seems to find his course
Stuck in this eternal tower
I'm more likely to marry the white horse

Bridge
I have been looking all around
I never find what's in my mind
Trying so hard to get to my
Fairytale, can it come by mail?

Chorus
Where is my Prince Charming?
I can never seem to find him
Whenever I think it has come the time
He gets hit by a bus
Or he doesn't wanna be mine
Where is my happy ending?
Maybe Cinderella's just pretending
Whoever will come to rescue me from the deep
Better come quick
Before I'm sound asleep

No Little Mermaid I'll be
And I can't even get a Beast
There's plenty of fish in the sea
But the sharks will only see my fist

The pumpkin isn't changin'
And the Fairy Godmother is late
When I think I've met Alladin
Is Shrek who shows up for the date

Bridge

Chorus


The perfect bedtime story isn't out of my reach
But I think that life still has some lessons to teach
I'll write my fairytale a little every day
When happily ever after seems so far away

Chorus

Into the Wound

Esta é especial porque a letra é minha mas a música (embora vocês não possam ouvir, ainda) é da grande Marisa Pereira, vocalista dos Flick 89!! :-)


So this is what it comes down to
An abyss between me and you
I guess we hit the wall
But was it even there at all

Come to think of it
The flame was never lit
Not by you, anyway
My imagination must have drove me astray

Chorus
I'm falling
Why don't you catch me?
I'm drowning
Why don't you save me?
Disappearing
Why don't you rescue me?
Distant callings
Say it's your fault
Desperate warnings
Just keep pouring salt into the wound


Every look, every smile
Distorted for a while
Saw it how I wanted to see
Made it what I wanted it to be

Everything's clear now though
No more make-believe you love me so
From now on I ask myself
Before I have to put someone else on the shelf

Shelf of basket cases I keep collecting
Shelf of feelings I don't want to keep regretting

Chorus
