Long story short.

22.
Messy.

I am a mess. I'd like you to know. Before we both get hurt.
Love me. Please don't leave me.

Pick apart the pieces of your heart
And let me peer inside where only your thoughts have been
Let me occupy your mind... as you do mine
You have lost (Too much love)
To fear, doubt and distrust (It’s not enough)
You just threw away the key (To your heart)
You don’t get burned (’Cause nothing gets through)
It makes it easier (Easier on you)
But that much more difficult for me to make you see:
Love ain’t fair
So there you are
My love
Your heart’s a mess
You won’t admit to it
It makes no sense
But I’m desperate to connect
And you, you can’t live like this
Love ain’t safe
You won’t get hurt if you stay chaste
So you can wait
But I don’t wanna waste my love

Del verano y la lluvia

¿Dónde se esconde el sol? El verano está necesariamente ligado al sol y al agua. Se vale que el agua venga de una alberca, un lago, un río o el mar, pero ciertamente no nos gusta tanto cuando el calorcito -del que admitamos, a veces nos quejamos- se ve opacado -y yo diría apaciguado- por la lluvia.

Este verano ha sido más de lluvia que de sol y poca ropa.

Es por esto que el playlist que conmemora el verano es para caminar bajo la lluvia y suena un poco más a otoño. Es voluble y le funciona a uno también para acompañar el último roadtrip a la playa. Son 30 canciones de agua que se acompañan bien con un poco de calor.

Una vez más, tendrían que estar en mi cabeza para imaginar el soundtrack que acompaña mis días de Agua de verano: Saltar en charcos, correr bajo la lluvia, el olor a tierra mojada, las gotas escurriendo lentamente por la ventana, caminar bajo la lluvia con café en mano, acurrucarse mientras llueve y leer un libro, sentir la brisa húmeda en tu cara mientras viajas en el carro, reencuentros bajo la lluvia, disfrazar las lágrimas, embestir la calle inundada con el carro, escuchar que la tormenta se acerca, vestirse para el calor sabiendo que habrá lluvia, caminar por la playa, la tromba en medio de la selva, el agua corriendo como río por las calles, festivales musicales en vivo, en fin.

Kiss the rain.

For a second there, under the rain, we kissed met.



Llovía. Él intentaba tomar un taxi pero los autos lo empapaban. 
Ella caminaba bajo la lluvia, tarareando lo que sería la canción de los dos. 

Me hubiera gustado decir "hola" (o al menos contarte que el sitio de taxis estaba a sólo un par de pasos). 
I'm shy like that sometimes. Lo siento.

20. Far.


- I'd like to go away

So just be gentle with me
(I'm not as young as I was)
And I'll be gentle with you
I'm not as brave as I thought'
'Cause my heart gets broken so easily
So just be gentle, be gentle with me

Would I? Could I?

Let's get out of this country
I'll admit I am bored with me
I drowned my sorrows and slept around
When not in body at least in mind
We?ll find a cathedral city
You can convince me I am pretty

- Let's



You said lets go into the sky
I said okay just you and I
The ground would fall beneath our feet
One small step is all we need

I guess I've always needed
To be needed by someone.

19. A&B


Staying home alone on a Friday.Flat on the floor looking back.On old love.Or lack thereof.After all the crushes are faded.And all my wishful thinking was wrong.I'm jaded.I hate it.I'm tired of being alone.So hurry up and get here.So tired of being alone.So hurry up and get here.Searching all my days just to find you.I'm not sure who I'm looking for.I'll know it.When I see you.Until then, I'll hide in my bedroom.Staying up all night just to write.A love song for no one.

Oh it’s the strangest thing, I wasn’t looking out for anything. My boat had just set sail, I was flying as the wind prevailed. What did you think you were doing, doing? I couldn’t shake loose, not from you, not from you. I couldn’t shake loose, now I don’t mind. Put your hands up, Say you won’t stop Giving me love, Cos I need you to feel me, feel me. Put your hands up, Say you won’t stop Giving me love. I don’t care if it’s greedy, greedy. Whatever you want, you’ve got it. Whatever you do I’m on it. Whatever you want, you’ve got it, Just put your hands up. I was a lonely girl, Swimming lost in the widest sea. But the truth of it, There ain’t no man could ever get to me. Now I just see stars when I’m with you. This is my heart that I give you. What did you do with your voodoo, voodoo child?


What did you do to me?

 18. Loveless

Things are looking up for me. 
Things are looking up for me. 
With an eye on the cost from another great height, 
I'll put my name on the right and brain on the right. 
But things are looking up for me. 

And I want to be nice, 
and in control. 
But its' the fear, 
that keeps me here. 
It keeps me loved and loveless. 


Don't leave a light for me. 
When now I wait here, 
gluttonously for god. 
And I want to be nice, 
and in control. 
But its' the fear, 
that keeps me here. 
It keeps me loved and loveless. 
In time, 
if you want to remind yourself. 
Well you can, 
watch the mother arrive 
Things are looking up for me

17. The Call.

I could call you, but I wouldn't know what to say.
Please call.


I'll fall at your feet.
