Silent Void

Silent Void - David Fonseca

If there’s something we could do,
To escape this silent void,
Just a word that we could say,
That would burn this silent door,
No we can’t stay here no more…

(...)

And there’s no one I would rather be with,
Nothing I would rather do,
Cause I’ve got this dream, this heart that beats,
Outside this silent world, and I’ve got you.

(...)

Oh tell us please what you’re made of,
Oh tell me please are you in love? Like me…

Burning inside

Lenha para me queimar... Hoje é isto que eu quero, LITERALMENTE! Quero ser a acha de uma fogueira... "a" acha não, que isso é dar muito relevo. Quero ser, apenas, "uma" acha dessa fogueira. Uma atirada no meio de tantas outras que nem se dê pela descrepância entre a velocidade com que se atiram talos de madeira para o lume e a lenta velocidade a que eles queimam. Quero aquecer, quero queimar, quero arder, quero crepitar, quero partir em dois e depois em quatro, oito, dezasseis, quero estalar por todos os lados... na certeza de que no fim serei apenas cinza. E assim, pelo menos enquanto ardo, não tenho a noção daquilo que vou ser. Porque agora me sinto cinza, mesmo antes de ser lançado à fúria das chamas...

Moment of Truth

- Are you all right?
- Yeah. I'm hurtin' here, though.
I'm a dope, Max. All this time you've been here... and l could see you anytime, but l didn't. Then your mom told me you were moving to Boston, and l started thinking. l could be sitting around sometime and... want to look at you and hold you and play with you, and l won't be able to.
l don't think I'm gonna do too well with that. l love you more than anything else in the world, Max, and you know it's true. l couldn't say it if it wasn't true. Not today. l love you, and I'll never hurt you again.
- He's telling the truth, Mom. He's not allowed to lie. l made a wish, and anything Dad says today has to be the truth.
- Max… It's 20:45. You made the wish at 20:15. I've been able to lie for the last half hour.
- So you weren't--
- No, it was the truth! I just wanted to be honest with you. I always want to be honest with you.
- Mom, do we have to go to Boston?
- No, Max, you don't have to go.
- Yeah!

É complicado fazer crescer uma história de amor.
Mas é muito pior vê-la desmoronar-se...
