.breaking the rules

«Creo que podría convertirme y vivir con los animales, son tan plácidos y autónomos;

Me quedo de pie y los miro mucho, mucho tiempo.
No sudan ni se quejan de su condición;
No se quedan despiertos en la oscuridad y lloran por sus pecados;
No me enferman discutiendo su deber para con Dios;
Ninguno está insatisfecho, ninguno está loco por la manía de poseer cosas;
Ni uno se arrodilla ante otro, ni los de su especie que vivieron hace miles de años;
Ninguno es responsable o industrioso sobre toda la tierra.»


-Walt Whitman, Hojas de hierba

Esta voz me recordó mucho al gran Joe Cocker

Sick and tired of getting older

I keep getting lost trying to find my way

Looking for love in every corner

Night after night

But every street light looks the same

So I’m taking the chance, walking away, breaking the rules

Nobody here can tell me what to do

I’m out on my own, making my way

Trying to be someone that I can be proud of one day

I’m out on my own, doing it my way

I gotta be tough, gotta be stronger

And take the time to understand

This city can’t get any colder

Stab you in the back while shaking your hand

So I’m taking the chance, walking away, breaking the rules

Nobody here can tell me what to do

I’m out on my own, making my way

Trying to be someone that I can be proud of one day

I’m out on my own, doing it my way
Doing it my own way, yeah

Taking the chance, walking away, breaking the rules

Nobody here can tell me what to do

I’m out on my own, making my way

Trying to be someone that I can be proud of one day

I’m out on my own

Doing it my way

Doing it my way

Doing it my own way

When I get home and you’re lying there
Crying in the bedroom I know I’ve let you down
And the makeup I didn’t notice
Running down your face, showing my mistakes

I’m always angry, I live with pain
You’re going crazy ‘cause I don’t know how to explain

And we both know
It’s plain to see
You’re better off without me

Fill your glass up, ‘til it over flows
You just wanna talk, I don’t wanna know
Like a street dog who’s never had a home
I don’t know how to live here, I don’t know how to not feel alone

You give me so much love, I give you trouble
All that you’ve gone and built, I only turn to rubble

Now we both know
It’s plain to see
You’re better off without me

Woah…
Yeah…
My, oh, my

I don’t know, I don’t know why
You and I, we can’t survive
I don’t know, I don’ know why
You and I, we can’t
You give me so much love, I give you heartache
I know you’re not giving up, cause giving up is not your way

But we both know
It’s plain to see
You’re better off without me
We both know
It’s plain to see
You’re better off without me
