hope

anathema’dan bir eternity parcasi...

"i was not put here by anyone in fear
i came alone as me
just an idea in a long chain of discovery
surrounded by the same you

sometimes your tide pulls me out to sea
and i die in a thrashing curse
sometimes we are kind
more often, i doze
so far up the beach that those who try to reach are burnt alive in the searing
heat of the desert of my dispassion
so far removed, i never hear the water
’cept once or twice a month when i see a mirror

and i refuse to believe in some of the things that are said to be here
let alone those that are not
i’m trying to change my direction
ours is pathetic in my own humble estimation

i love the planet
the great benign she-wolf
benefactor
spinning gently on towards the red giant four aeons hence
when all the rose gardens are consumed in the flash-fire of flying time
she’ll leave alone to you"

when you look at me
from your own century
i may seem to be
strange archeology
but when the winds blow
from this direction
you may sense that i’m
in your reflection
i think i feel you
but i will never know
as the swallows leave
and the children grow

i wanted to live forever
the same as you will too
i wanted to live forever
and everybody knew

when i caught you there
in tomorrows mirror
i thought i felt you
jump out of my skin
throwing oil into
my blazing memories
filling empty footsteps
i was standing in

i wanted to live forever
the same as you will too
i wanted to live forever
and everybody knew

as the falling rain
of the northern jungle
hanging droplets on the leaves
bombards my brain
i hear you
across the room
a sea of daffodils spring into bloom
you are the mist
the frost across my window pane
and again

she moves her body
and her whispers weave
and the world spins
and tells me that i’ll never want to leave

as i think of you
from this dark century
i will always be
with generosity
that we both may share
the hope in hearing
that we’re not just
spirits disappearing

ing: umut

tek kelimeyle inanılmaz bir john frusciante şarkısı.curtains albümündendir.
sözleri:

i feel the hope running low
we never found our way home
there is no more world
the land is gone
water is all that survived that one
there are no escapes
gone are the days of mistakes
our mistakes
and did you see
the night wore on
and became the days that never begun
the disappearing day
you know where i’m from
is the only place that forever stays young
lost at sea
we’re lost at sea
i wouldn’t know my face if you all were me
all we have is all we see
there is no more hope
there are no dreams

john frusciante denen insanın hayatımı kaydıran şarkısı..
hayır, hiçbir şarkıya "hope" kelimesi bu kadar yaraşmadı..
tam ağlamaya başlayacakken pat diye kesiliyor şarkı.. ve bu yüzden artarda yaklaşık on kere dinliyorsunuz hope’u..

one last goodbye, angelica ve last control’den sonra vincent’ın en icten soyledigi sarkı. her dinleyisimde icimi bi burkar nedensiz yere birden bire, oylesine, bir baskadır bana gore...

rem şarkısıdır, up albümünden...

you want to go out friday
and you want to go forever.
you know that it sounds childish
that you’ve dreamt of alligators.
you hope that we are all with you
and you hope that you’re recognized
you want to go forever
you see it in my eyes.
i’m lost in the confusion
and it doesn’t seem to matter
you really can’t believe it
and you hope it’s getting better.

you want to trust the doctors
their procedure is the best
but the last try was a failure
and the intern was a mess.
they did the same to matthew
and he bled ’til sunday night
they’re saying don’t be frightened
but you’re weakened by the sight of it
you lock into a pattern
and you know that it’s the last ditch
you’re trying to see through it
and it doesn’t make sense
but they’re saying don’t be frightened
and they’re killing alligators
and they’re hog-tied
and accepting of the struggle

you want to trust religion
and you know it’s allegory
but the people who are followers
have written their own story.
so you look up to the heavens
and you hope that it’s a spaceship
and it’s something from your childhood
your thinking don’t be frightened

you want to climb the ladder
you want to see forever
you want to go out friday
and you want to go forever.
and you want to cross your dna
to cross your dna with something reptile.
and you’re questioning the sciences
and questioning religion
you’re looking like an idiot
and you no longer care.
and you want to bridge the schism,
the built in mechanism to protect you.
and you’re looking for salvation
and you’re looking for deliverance
you’re looking like an idiot
and you no longer care.
you want to climb the ladder
you want to see forever.
you want to go out friday
you want to go forever.

inanılmaz bir apocalyptica parçası.
