Better days

How can I be sad
If I feel like I was touched by an angel
When I'm with you?
How can I be sad
If all I have to
To feel a little bit better
Is to call you?
How can I feel sad
If the touch of your skin
Feels like a thousand suns?
How can I be sad?
I just am.
And there's nothing we can do.
Because when the sadness
Is so deeply inside your soul
That you can't take it out
All you can actually do
Is to sit back
And wait for better times to come.
And my better times
My better days
Are the ones
I spend with you.

Something nice

I'm so tired
Of this life.
I'm tired of feeling like I don't belong here,
Like no one loves me
Or even care about me.
I'm so sorry that I can't be better,
That I can't smile like the others,
That I'm not like the others.
I'm not in a good place right now.
Sometimes I can feel my demons
Crawling on the back of my mind
Telling me that I don't deserve to be happy,
Making me feel like I was better of dead.
And sometimes
You say something nice
And it's enough to make the light
Get into my soul
And it warms my heart.
And for you,
Because of you,
I swear I'm trying.
I'm doing my best
To feel like I'm worthwhile again.

Sometimes

Sometimes
Even if you want to help
All you can do
Is being there.
Sometimes
All we need
Is a good friend
And a shoulder to cry on.
Sometimes
Love is to be strong
For the people you care about
Even if
You can't be strong for yourself.
Sometimes
Life is unfair
And your world feels like
It's falling apart
And in the end
You'll find out
That everything will be okay.
And sometimes it doesn't
And still,
We live.
Life is about who you are
The people who are by your side
When things get hard
And the people you love,
Not about your scars.

By my side

All I do in life
Has a point.
All I do is to see you smile.
And if I succeed,
It will be worth it.
All the pain
All the anxiety
All the fear.
Because to me
Loving
Is all about overcoming our fears
And fighting them off
With you by my side.

When I'm with you

I'm not unhappy
And I'm not happy either.
I don't feel a damn thing,
And it scares me
Because I used to be overwhelmed with feelings
And now
I'm just an empty shell.
But then you show up
And when I'm with you
I can feel the flowers starting to grow
And the light reaching all the places
Where darkness used to rule.
When I'm with you
I let myself think
That maybe
I'll be happy again.

With you

I want to know what this is
And maybe
I don't really want it to be love.
I don't want to be sitting
All by myself
Crying my heart out
Feeling broken again.
I want to smile
And feel the sun in my skin.
I want to see the ocean
And listen to the waves.
I want to explore the world.
The problem is
I want it all to be with you.

Corações de vidro

Os nossos corações estão partidos
E como em vidro que já não tem reparo
Cortei-me nas tuas extremidades
Mas como poderia eu saber
Que a dor sabe tão bem
Quando é sobre ti?

Life is fair, I hope

You may think
That life is unfair
And you never get what you want
But maybe
This time
Just this time
Things will go smoothly
And everything
Will be alright

Alone

You think you're lonely
Maybe you're just bored
You should know
That you can't escape loneliness
We're all alone
We born alone
And we die alone
We just keep ourselves busy
To forget that.

Voices

And
Sometimes
When the voices in my head are too loud
I call you
Just to hear you say "hello"
And all the other voices just disappear

Estradas e caminhos

Olhar para ti faz-me sorrir. Este sentimento estúpido que se apodera de mim é algo que não consigo controlar. Sempre foi assim, desde a primeira vez que os nossos olhos se cruzaram e dissemos "Olá". Sempre foi assim, desde que as circunstâncias da vida nos aproximaram, e distanciaram, e voltaram a aproximar e distanciar, numa estrada a que podemos chamar destino. Esta estrada que percorro, e que quero que percorrer contigo a meu lado. Esta estrada que não precisa de iluminação, porque tu brilhas o suficiente. Esta estrada onde podem haver obstáculos, mas nenhum demasiado grande ou intransponível. Dizem que todas as estradas têm um fim, o que é incorrecto. Olhar para ti vai fazer com que eu sorria, inconscientemente, sempre, esteja onde estiver.
