Reality is pretty funny
Between the strains and pains
And hunger pangs
And people who think bangs still look good
When they never did
Not even in the eighties
I've just been looking for happiness
And I found it in the most unlikeliest of places
A morbid place of loss and sorrow
Called Burger King
I bought some onion rings
And they were crispy enough!!!!!
Still I lose
Still I hold onto
What I never held in the first place
And I lose my faith
And I lose my hope
But I still find a place for humor
I still laugh
And I'm the king
Who you want to be
I'll have empty hands and empty pockets
But everything is mine
So grab those onion rings
With both hands
And let the crispness guide you

I've no idea what you could mean
or what you're trying to say,
my mind is sweet and squeaky clean
it's just not made your way,
Courgettes and carrots, parsnips too,
or even a creamy plantain,
I certainly won't mention a marrow,
that's just you boasting again
Ahhh the insinuations
the rhetoric, and rhyme
not saying what is meant
each, and every time
The witty repartee
and closeted nuance
knowing just what to say
taking a risqué chance
Squeaky clean, a facade
as carrots into men
fishing with a fishing rod
but only, now and then

Eu tinha um mundo inteiro pra te contar,
cheguei a rabiscar cada segredo em páginas que o vento levou.
Estraguei tudo antes mesmo de ter a chance de falar,
mas sei… foram as mãos de Deus guiando cada passo meu.
Você me era permitido, mas não me cabia.
Por que demorei tanto pra ver?
Teríamos poupado o coração de tanto frio.
Com outra garota, viva os planos que fizemos em silêncio,
ela seguirá caminhos que talvez eu não alcance.
Cada sonho de casamento, cada saidinha, cada roupa combinando…
ainda florescerá,
mas em outro jardim, sob outro céu.
Sorrio com o que rolou,
porque nunca imaginamos que o amor que chamávamos de “nosso” teria fim.
Viva cada instante,
não olhe para trás,
não carregue a “gente” nas lembranças.
Não quero ser sombra no seu futuro,
mas peço, leve comigo um pedaço da nossa conexão…
ela sempre encontrará seu caminho,
mesmo que seja em silêncio,
mesmo que seja distante,
mesmo que seja apenas memória doce nos cantos do coração.
