#6 Música/Sin/Fronteras

Maybe I'm a bit naive
there are things I want 
and things I need 
a little Jack or a little Jim Beam 
a little kiss here and a little you'll see 
You're a little bit bad 
and you're exactly what I need 
follow me...yeah


You take my hand 
we start dancing slow 
we're just groovin' to the radio
I smile at the smile in your eyes 
where is this  gonna lead?
we say we really don't know 
Nice try...
we both know that's a lie
we know.... yeah 

 Pre-Chorus

You can only hold off the morning 
for so long 
baby, you know 
the moon is long gone 
oh ohohhhhoh


Chorus

Sunlight tearing at my eyes 
like daggers 
Guess I lost 
last night's swagger
the only boom boom  I'm  feeling
is the pounding in my head 
wish I was dead

Bridge
Black bird sitting on a Boulevard wire 
He's been watchin' mocking my desire
singing "you know better... you know better "


I can't say I planned it 
love has always been a hit and miss 
I can't say I went looking for this 
 That Blackbird is gonna have to 
save his judgement
For another day 

He don't know that I know
when his love goes sideways
He just flies away
Yeah, he just flies away 

 
Pre-Chorus

You can only hold off the morning 
for so long 
baby, you know 
the moon is long gone 
oh ohohhhhoh


Chorus

Sunlight tearing at my eyes 
like daggers 
Guess I lost 
last night's swagger
the only boom boom  I'm  feeling
is the pounding in my head 
wish I was dead

That Blackbird is gonna have to 
save his judgement
For another day 

He don't know that I know
when his love goes sideways
He just flies away
Yeah, he just flies away 


Last Night's Swagger

I think everyone has been in this place at some time in their lives. God loves you. We are all in this life together. ; ) 

Lyrics-
I've been wandering
Searching for a place that feels like home
Lost on paths where I've gone astray
Now, I'm pleading...
Dear God, I'm drowning...
please stretch out your hand 
and rescue me

Lead me back to the path 
You always had in mind for me 


[Verse 2]
I heard the choir sing your name out loud
In a church where once I stood 
Praying now, please remember me
I want the good in You 
to be the good in me 


[Verse 3]
You are Love,
You are forgiveness
You are unfailing grace
I want to be among your people 
in this healing place

[Bridge]
Hearts I've  broken,  words I've thrown
You said I could leave it all 
at the foot of your throne

[Chorus]
I'm coming back to You 
Forgive me for the paths I've wrongly trod
I'm coming back to you, back to You
Because You are my God
You are my God

[Verse 4]
There is nothing in this world 
that can give comfort like you do
In your love I find my identity
of who I am in you 
Feed my spirit with your words of truth 
I hear you calling
Now...
I'm calling after You 
I'm calling after You

[Bridge]
Hearts I've  broken, words I've thrown
You said I could leave it all 
at the foot of your throne

[Chorus]
I'm coming back to You 
Forgive me for the paths I've wrongly trod
I'm coming back to You, back to you
Because you are my God
You are my God 


I'm coming back to you 
I'm coming back to you 
back to you

Back To You

When a woman has a choice to make...

Driving down the road, It's past midnight
The stars look down shake their heads and say 
She ain't thinkin right 
Wearing my heart on my sleeve and it's heavy
Someone better save me from myself already

Can't sit in my skin
 itchy foot itchin again
It's not where I should be going 
But I know where they keep the whiskey flowing

Somewhere off highway 90
Tennesse plates behind me 
Looking in the rearview mirror I see a fool
it's crazy what a lonely woman will do

[Chorus]
Damn... someone better reel me in
Before I throw my heart away again
My heart's been burned to a tender crisp
Someone better talk me outta this

Late night dive bar with the jukebox playin
Cowboys giving me the eye
I'm just sayin'
Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining

Under neon lights where the devil plays
Sweet talk like smoke blowin'  my way
He's leaning in for a kiss
Someone better talk me outta this

You'd think I'd know better by now
I know how this story ends 
I've been here before
I know how this story ends 
I've been here before
His boots on my bedroom floor

I don't know why I'm here
I'm about to cross that line
I must have lost my mind

[Chorus]
Damn... someone better reel me in
Before I throw my heart away again
My heart's been burned to a tender crisp
Someone better talk me outta this

Start talking...
Somebody better start talkin
Start talking...
Somebody better start talkin

Someone Better Talk Me Out Of This

Friday night, she locks the office door
heads home up the 405
Staring at red tail lights, like a crimson tide
Playing footsie with the gas and brake
She thinks to herself.
How much more of this, can a girl take?

She's barely in the door
kicks her shoes off, 
picks the mail up off the floor
She already knows
what bills she can't afford
with a heavy sigh, she wants to cry

Ohhhhhh oooooooooooooooooo

She checks the message on her phone
"Hey girl, are you coming out tonight "?
She knows she should say no
She knows she should stay home 
and save some money, 
she doesn't have a lot
so, she texts back..."probably not"

Ohhhhhh oooooooooooooooooo
Ohhh

But she's feeling restless
Maybe even a little reckless
she's gonna go 
She thought it through 
Because this is what the cool girls do

While she does her make up
She has a couple of glasses of wine
takes her pen takes a hit
that should do it ...

She draws smokey eyes, lips stained in Tom Ford,  
blush from Sephora, heads towards the door
grabs her Birkin bag, the one she couldn't afford 
and slips on her Jimmy Choo's
because this is what the cool girls do

Driving East on Sunset
freedom doesn't feel so far away 
her front seat is her confessional 
She doesn't have to be professional
She can say what she thinks, if she's feeling off kilter
She doesn't have to use a filter
she looks in the mirror and says, 
I confess...'I know I'm a little high,
I'm just trying to get by '

10:45 she's on the dance floor
what she was worried about  
She's not worried about it anymore
She gets lost in the music 
She's flying high above the clouds
She doesn't want to come down 
In her view
This is what the cool girls do

Driving West on Sunset
freedom feels so far away 
her front seat is her confessional 
She doesn't have to be professional
She can just say what she thinks, if she's feeling off kilter
She doesn't have to use a filter
she looks in the mirror and says, 
I confess.....' I know, I'm a bit of a mess'

TWO AM...she heads back home up the 405
Staring at red tail lights, like a crimson tide
Playing footsie with the gas and brake
She thinks to herself.
how much more of this can I take?

Is this what the cool girls do? 

Are you a cool girl too ?

Up The Harp!☘️

This is one of my first songs ever written in English. Too sentimental yet meaningless. I just like the melody.

Written and performed by Kyo

*************************:
We hide the past
Pretending well
In a sad situation
You called it love
I wasn't sure
But I know we can last a year or two

You and I are playing desperate parts of night dancers

You wanna start new life of love
Well, I've got no objection
You need your joy
You need your home
Even though this is not true love

You and I are playing desperate parts of night dancers

Night Dancers

Written and performed by Kyo

************************
Sunspots are decreasing in the cycle of the Sun 
We’re getting into an ice age
In a few decades 

All right 
Where did the global warming go?
All right 
Getting tired of the false alert 

Ballistic missiles to Hawaii! 
Go to shelter now
It was no training, it was no machine trouble 
Just a human error 

All right
Where’s the boy who cried wolf?
All right 
Who can stop the false alert?

If I say there’s no threat 
Collective hysteria 
Created by media 
Will you accuse me?
Will you ignore me?

Oh no
How can you say my girl is seeing a man 
No shit
She is laughing in my kitchen 

All right 
You’re making money by faking the world 

All right 
Yes for sure 
Yes for sure 
I will have another beer
