Sarah Mclachlan - Elsewhere (with Paula Cole)

Esta canción y la anterior son mis canciones de batalla en estos momentos de mi vida.
Nunca había escuchado esta versión y la amo! Sarah McLachlan y Paula Cole son dos de mis cantantes favoritas. woohoo!!

He aquí la letra:

I love the time
and inbetween
the calm inside me in the space
where I can breathe

I believe there is a distance
I have wandered to touch upon the years of
reaching out
and reaching in
holding out
holding in.

I believe
this is heaven
to no one else but me
and I'll defend it as long as
I can be
left here to linger
in silence
if I
choose to
would you
try to
understand.

I know this love
is passing time
passing through like liquid
I am drunk in my desire
but I love the way you smile at me
I love the way your hands reach out and
hold me near..

I believe..

I believe
this is heaven
to no one else but me
and I'll defend it as long as
I can be
left here to linger
in silence
if I
choose to
would you
try to
understand.

Oh the quiet child
awaits the day
when she can break free
the mold that clings like desperation.

Mother
can't you see I've got to
live my life the way I feel is
right for me
might not be right for you but it's
right for me..

I believe...

I believe
this is heaven
to no one else but me
and I'll defend it as long as
I can be
left here to linger
in silence
if I
choose to
would you
try to
understand it.

I would
like to
linger
here in
silence
if I
choose to
would you
try to
understand...

Fumbling Towards Ecstasy live (Mirrorball dvd)

All the fear has left me now
I'm not frightened anymore.
It's my heart that pounds beneath my flesh.
it's my mouth that pushes out this breath

and if I shed a tear I won't cage it.
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it.
I won't fear love.

Companion to our demons
they will dance and we will play.
With chairs candles and clothes
making darkness in the day.
It will be easy to look in or out
upstream or down
without a thought

and if I shed a tear I won't cage it.
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it.
I won't fear love.

Peace in the struggle to find peace.
Comfort on the way to comfort

and if I shed a tear I won't cage it.
I won't fear love
and if I feel a rage I won't deny it
I won't fear love.
I won't fear love.
I won't fear love...

Feeling Good: Live At Wembley Stadium 2007

I LOVE this song!!!

A year later...

Wow, it's already been a year since that fateful october when I started to change and move my life forward. So many things have happened since, some extremely good, some really bad but good in the end, since they are all lessons I needed, and still need, to learn. So many chains I have broken, some are still here, not letting me move freely. There's still so much fear and insecurity in my bones but they are so much stronger at the same time... and wiser.

I know who I am but I'm such a complex and sometimes contradictory creature that I get lost in myself now and then and feel confused. But this is who I am, and I am beautiful and strong and bright. I'm full of love and light and darkness, of passion and fire, of anger and pain and laughter. My soul is a universe of symbols and stars, forests and stories, yearnings, despair and hope... and sometimes only silence.

Yes, it's been one of the most interesting years of my life and I have never felt so alive.

P.S.: this october has been pretty good too. I just love this freaking month.

I hear your voice in the wind...

What's this desire that burns me up from the inside?
I don't know you, yet I have known you for centuries...

I yearn to look into your eyes again,
to see your love for me in there setting my soul on fire,
to feel your arms around me, your lips crushing mine...

But you are not here, not where I can touch you, nowhere near me yet...

And I despair...

What the hell?

Ok, you start to think that something must be really wrong when the alternate, imaginary life that you have so carefully constructed sucks just as much as your real life. What the hell am I talking about, you may wonder.... but nevermind, just believe me, everything is a double mess when not even your imagination lets you escape into a wonderful, perfect world. In fact, it sucks when that alternate life is depressing you just as much as your "real" one... or even more. Oh, well, that's what I get for wanting something so bad. I feel like screaming and punching something, which I probably won't do unless I put on some howling music to tear my throat. Ok, Im gonna stop now with the nonsense.

Just one more thing: I'm so hating him right now. I just want to slap some sense into his invisible brain...
(One of the greatest lines in a movie in the history of the world deserves to be put in here: YOU FUUUCK!! YOU FUCKING FUCK!! YOU FUCKING FUUUUCCCKKK!!! WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?!??! -Lord of War, courtesy of Jared Leto's beautiful acting.)

Nonsense mode = OFF

Got to remember this always...

• No te contentes con menos de lo que realmente deseas.
• Cuídate de aceptar ofrecimientos de seguridad y tranquilidad a expensas de tu propia libertad creadora. Tan pronto cambies tu libertad por la ilusión de la seguridad, te será difícil recuperar esa libertad.
• Sigue el impulso de tu corazón y recibirás bendiciones y favores inesperados.
