It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding) - song lyrics

Darkness at the break of noon
Shadows even the silver spoon
The handmade blade, the child's balloon
Eclipses both the sun and moon
To understand you know too soon
There is no sense in trying

Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn
Suicide remarks are torn
From the fool's gold mouthpiece
The hollow horn plays wasted words
Proves to warn
That he not busy being born
Is busy dying

Temptation's page flies out the door
You follow, find yourself at war
Watch waterfalls of pity roar
You feel to moan but unlike before
You discover that you'd just be
One more person crying

So don't fear
If you hear
A foreign sound
To your ear
It's alright, Ma
I'm only sighing

As some warn victory, some downfall
Private reasons great or small
Can be seen in the eyes of those that call
To make all that should be killed to crawl
While others say, "Don't hate nothing at all
Except hatred"

Disillusioned words like bullets bark
As human gods aim for their mark
Make everything from toy guns that spark
To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark
It's easy to see without looking too far
That not much is really sacred

While preachers preach of evil fates
Teachers teach that knowledge waits
Can lead to hundred-dollar plates
Goodness hides behind its gates
But even the president of the United States
Sometimes must have to stand naked

And though the rules of the road
Have been lodged
It's only people's games
That you got to dodge
And it's alright, Ma
I can make it

Advertising signs that con you
Into thinking you are the one
That can do what's never been done
That can win what's never been won
Meantime life outside goes on
All around you

You lose yourself, you reappear
You suddenly find you got nothing to fear
Alone you stand with nobody near
When a trembling distant voice, unclear
Startles your sleeping ears to hear
That somebody thinks they really found you

A question in your nerves is lit
Yet you know there is no answer to fit, to satisfy
Insure you not to quit
To keep it in your mind and not forget
That it's not he or she or them or it
That you belong to

Although the masters
Make the rules
For the wise men
And the fools
I got nothing, Ma
To live up to

Old lady judges watch people in pairs
Limited in sex, they dare
To push fake morals, insult and stare
While money doesn't talk, it swears
Obscenity, who really cares?
Propaganda, all is phony

While them that defend what they cannot see
With a killer's pride, security
It blows the minds most bitterly
For them that think death's honesty
Won't fall upon them naturally
Life sometimes must get lonely

My eyes collide head-on with stuffed graveyards
False gods, I scoff
At pettiness which plays so rough
Walk upside-down inside handcuffs
Kick my legs to crash it off
Say okay, I have had enough
What else can you show me?

And if my thought-dreams
Could be seen
They'd probably put my head
In a guillotine
But it's alright, Ma (foolish)
It's life, and life only

Te entrega, Corisco
Te entrega, Corisco
Eu não entrego não

How can I keep on smiling at their disguise? When I know nothing good ever comes from lies My heart is no beginner now But still I can lose my temper, hey How can we keep on watching that fucking TV? We're so bored we don't even care what we see Takes our strength away And never, never shows us the way, no But I think I know the answer It's only mystery and I like it It's only mystery and I like it It's only mystery and I like it It's only mystery How can the banks of a river meet? Sitting on her bed, staring at her feet She thinks life is water And love, love is a river, oh yeah But is a child the answer? It's only mystery and I like it It's only mystery and I like it It's only mystery and I like it It's only mystery We could dream of a grand evolution Where we wouldn't ask anymore questions There will be no, no more pretenders, yeah, mm-mm Use the love that I offer Dreaming is not the answer, mm It's only mystery No-no-no-no-no-no No-no-no-no-no-no It's only mystery, woah Only mystery, mhmm yeah Well, it's only mystery Woah, one time that's only mystery

I laid awake, in my bed, all night long last night. Thinking about everything that's going on, in my life. And I came to the conclusion that all of my confusion is natural. It's not a crazy notion, like water in the ocean has it's flow. So I'm alright. I took a breath, closed my eyes, came to God humbly. I didn't ask for answer but, Lord, You answered me. You gave me Your direction, like still waters' clear reflection, You helped me see. That Your will is the best, and I don't have to stress, if I believe. He said, "Be still and know that I am God," rest knowing that I have fought this war for you. There's no shame in feeling lost; broken paths lead to the cross. So you'll be alright. Now I know that life might always be just one confusing mess. But I will do the best and I can and let You do the rest.

Alguma coisa acontece no meu coração Que só quando cruzo a Ipiranga e a Avenida São João É que quando eu cheguei por aqui, eu nada entendi Da dura poesia concreta de tuas esquinas Da deselegância discreta de tuas meninas Ainda não havia para mim, Rita Lee A tua mais completa tradução Alguma coisa acontece no meu coração Que só quando cruzo a Ipiranga e a Avenida São João Quando eu te encarei frente a frente, não vi o meu rosto Chamei de mau gosto o que vi De mau gosto, mau gosto É que Narciso acha feio o que não é espelho E a mente apavora o que ainda não é mesmo velho Nada do que não era antes quando não somos mutantes E foste um difícil começo Afasto o que não conheço E quem vende outro sonho feliz de cidade Aprende de pressa a chamar-te de realidade Porque és o avesso do avesso, do avesso, do avesso Do povo oprimido nas filas, nas vilas, favelas Da força da grana que ergue e destrói coisas belas Da feia fumaça que sobe apagando as estrelas Eu vejo surgir teus poetas de campos e espaços Tuas oficinas de florestas, teus deuses da chuva Panaméricas de Áfricas utópicas, túmulo do samba Mais possível novo Quilombo de Zumbi E os novos baianos passeiam na tua garoa E novos baianos te podem curtir numa boa
