lost and found

if we both fall down,
another train will come around
packed with others getting
lost and found



lost and found
ola podrida - ola podrida
[plug research; 2007]

always under or above



watching terrible tv
it kills all thoughts
getting spacier than
an astronaut
making out with people
i hardly know or like
i can't believe what i do
late at night

i wanna know what it's like
on the inside of love
i'm standing at the gates
i see the beauty above

only when we get to see
the aerial view
will the patterns show
we'll know what to do
i know the last page so well
i can't read the first
so i just don't start
it's getting worse


i wanna know what it's like
on the inside of love
i'm standing at the gates
i see the beauty above

i wanna know what it's like
on the inside of love
i can't find my way in
i try again and again

i'm on the outside of love
always under or above
i can't find my way in
i try again and again

i'm on the outside of love
always under or above
must be a different view
to be a me with a you

i wanna know what it's like
on the inside of love
i'm standing at the gates
i see the beauty above

i wanna know what it's like
on the inside of love
of course i'll be alright
i just had a bad night

inside of love

el poder de tu voz

si ellos lo dicen yo me lo creo



¿Qué ha sucedido?

Desde hace ocho meses, el spot de Amnistía Internacional “El Poder de Tu Voz” no se puede emitir en los canales nacionales de televisión. El Ministerio de Industria, Turismo y Comercio obstaculiza su emisión denegando la exención de cómputo publicitario. No sólo niega el carácter de servicio público del anuncio, con lo que se impide su emisión gratuita, sino que además lo califica como publicidad política. Dicha calificación supone considerar ilegal la emisión por parte de cualquier canal de televisión (artículo 9. 1c ley 25/1994) y sancionable como infracción grave (artículo 20.2 de la misma ley).

dicen que el tren pasa solo una vez.
que estás perdido si lo pierdes.
no dicen que las mejores cosas aguardan en la estación.



you didn't know where to go
walking around in this flag-waving town
i saw you waiting for a train
and you disappeared
your face pressed up to the window

you went so far away
and i want to come there too
i want to be with you
i'm just waiting until you say these words:
"come back, come back, come back, oh, to me...
i'm living near gdànsk,
there's a train, you'd be here soon
there's a life for me and you
the east means so many things
but it could be home, it could be home,
it could be home, it could be home
for you and me
it could be home, it could be home,
it could be home, it could be home
come back, come back, come back, oh, to me..."

and if you'd ever say these words
i'd come to you, where you are
it's too hard to be apart
the east's not so far away
and it could be home, it could be home,
it could be home, it could be home
for you and me
it could be home, it could be home,
it could be home, it could be home
come back, come back, come back
oh, to me...

pequeño homenaje para quienes persiguen un sueño




please beware of them that stare
they'll only smile to see you while
your time away
and once you've seen what they have been
to win the earth just won't seem worth
your night or your day
who'll hear what i say.

look around you find the ground
is not so far from where you are
but not too wise
for down below they never grow
they're always tired and charms are hired
from out of their eyes
never surprise.

take your time and you'll be fine
and say a prayer for people there
who live on the floor
and if you see what's meant to be
don't name the day or try to say
it happened before.

don't be shy you learn to fly
and see the sun when day is done
if only you see
just what you are beneath a star
that came to stay one rainy day
in autumn for free
yes, be what you'll be.

please beware of them that stare
they'll only smile to see you while
your time away
and once you've seen what they have been
to win the earth just won't seem worth
your night or your day
who'll hear what i say.

open up the broken cup
let goodly sin and sunshine in
yes that's today.
and open wide the hymns you hide
you find reknown while people frown
at things that you say
but say what you'll say
about the farmers and the fun
and the things behind the sun
and the people round your head
who say everything's been said
and the movement in your brain
sends you out into the rain.

por favor, cuídate de los que miran fijamente
sólo sonreirán para verte mientras
tu tiempo está ausente
y una vez que hayas visto lo que ellos han sido
para ganar la tierra no parecerán valiosos
tu noche o tu día
¿quién oirá lo que yo digo?

mira a tu alrededor, encuentras el suelo
no está tan lejos de tí
pero no te pases de listo
porque los de abajo nunca crecen
están siempre cansados y se alquilan encantos
desde sus ojos
nunca te sorprendas.

tómate tu tiempo y estarás bien
y reza por la gente
que vive en el suelo
y si ves lo que se supone que hay
no nombres la fecha ni intentes decir
que ya pasó antes.

no seas tímido, aprende a volar
y mira el sol cuando acaba el día
si sólo ves
lo que eres bajo una estrella
que vino a quedarse en un día de lluvia
en otoño, gratuitamente
sí, sé lo que seas.

por favor, cuídate de los que miran fijamente
sólo sonreirán para verte mientras
tu tiempo está ausente
y una vez que hayas visto lo que ellos han sido
para ganar la tierra no parecerán valiosos
tu noche o tu día
¿quién oirá lo que yo digo?

abre la copa rota
deja entrar el pecado agradable y la luz del sol
sí, eso es hoy.
y abre bien los himnos que escondes
que reconoces mientras la gente frunce el ceño
por cosas que dices
pero di lo que tengas que decir
sobre los granjeros y la diversión
y las cosas que hay detrás del sol
y la gente que da vueltas en tu cabeza
que dicen que ya todo se ha dicho
y el movimiento de tu cerebro
te envía afuera con la lluvia.
