Nada melhor

quando se está deprimido do que ir fazer resgates. Eu hoje resgatei esta música da Natalie Imbruglia, que já não houvia há que anos. No entanto, devo dizer que ainda soa bem, estranhamente. É certo que o percurso de Imbruglia é muito incerto, oscilante e escorregadio. Mas esta música é um clássico. "Torn" foi a canção que a deu a conhecer ao mundo, e que eu odiei. Quando todos a esqueceram, eu passei a gostar, ou talvez tivesse a ver com a fase em que estava... enfim, tudo isto vai dar ao facto de estar a aborrecer-me a mim mesmo. O video é a fugir para o estúpido, mas passa. Boa mesmo é a música.

"I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm
He came around
And he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry

Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know
Or seem to care
What your heart is for
I don't know him anymore

There's nothin' where he used to lie
My conversation has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothings right
I'm torn

I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn

So I guess the fortune tellers right
I should have seen just what was there and not some holy light
But you crawled beneath my veins
And now, I don't care
I have no luck
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things
That I can't touch
I'm torn

There's nothin' he used to lie
My inspiration has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's right
I'm torn"
