Grimes - Oblivion (2012)



I never walk about after dark
It’s my point of view
‘Cause someone could break your neck
Coming up behind you
Always coming and you’d never have a clue”
And now I'm left behind all the time
I will wait forever
Always looking straight
Thinking counting all the hours you wait

See you on a dark night

And now another play I would act
If you could help me out
It's hard to understand
Because when you're running by yourself
It's hard to find someone to hold your hand

And now the empathy empowers me
But I will wait forever
I need someone now
To look into my eyes and tell me
Girl you know you've got to watch your health

See you on a dark night.

Σωκράτης Μάλαμας - Κοντραπούντο (1998)



Στίχοι:  Άλκης Αλκαίος
Μουσική:  Σωκράτης Μάλαμας

Πάντοτε έψαχνα έναν δρόμο να σε φτάσω
σκυφτός μερόνυχτα σε χάρτες και βιβλία
ήθελα μόνο τη σκιά σου ν΄ αγκαλιάσω
στου κόσμου βγαίνω τα σενά περιπολία

Όλα τα σχέδια χρυσόψαρα στη γυάλα
και σύ τη μάσκα σου φοράς και τα στολίδια
τ΄ άστρα μου στέλνουνε πανάρχαια σινιάλα
κι εγώ μιας χίμαιρας μαζεύω τα ξεφτίδια

Zωή σε σπούδασα και ξέχασα να ζήσω
ποιός το χαμένο μου καιρό θα φέρει πίσω
δε δίνει ρεύμα ότι αγαπώ και δε με σώζει
τη λύση ψάχνω στο μπερντέ του Kαραγκιόζη

Πάντοτε έψαχνα έναν δρόμο να σε φτάσω
τρέχεις αδιάκοπα και τίποτα δεν τρέχει
μα συνεχίζω κι ας βρεθώ ξανά στον άσσο
κανείς δε χάνει μια ζωή που δεν την έχει

Bγαίνουν στην άγραν της TV τα συνεργεία
όλα είναι ζήτημα τιμής σ΄ αυτόν τον κόσμο
τα όνειρά μου κατεβαίνουν σ΄ απεργία
άσωτοι άγγελοι μου δείχνουνε το δρόμο.
