“Stranger things…” tiene ese acorde exacto para definir todo lo extraño que me pasa cada día, y aunque su melodía expresa bastante tristeza y lejanía, termina por hacerme despertar por dentro.

“Stranger Things Have Happened” (Foo Fighters – álbum: Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace- RCA, Setiembre 2007

goddamn this dusty room
this hazy afternoon
i’m breathing in the silence like never before
this feeling that i get
this one last cigarette
as i lay awake and wait for you to come through that door
oh maybe, maybe, maybe i can share it with you
i behave i behave i behave so i can share it with you

you are not alone dear loneliness
you forgot but i remember this
so stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know
i’m not alone dear loneliness
i thank god that i remember this
so stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know, oh ohh, oh ohhh

you’ll dream about somewhere, a smoke will fill the air
as i lay awake and wait for you to walk out that door
i can change, i can change, i can change, but who do you want me to be?
i’m the same, i’m the same, i’m the same, what do you want me to be?

you are not alone dear loneliness
you forgot but i remember this
so stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know oh ohh, oh ohh

i’m not alone dear loneliness
i thank god that i remember this
you’re not alone dear loneliness
you forgot but i remember this
oh stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know

i’m not alone dear loneliness
i thank god that i remember this
oh stranger, stranger, stranger things have happened i know oh ohh, oh ohh, oh ohhh

“A Lack of Color” (Death Cab for Cutie – álbum: Transatlanticism – Barsuk Records October 2003

And when i see you
I really see you upside down
But my brain knows better
It picks you up and turns you around
Turns you around, turns you around

If you feel discouraged
That there’s a lack of color here
Please don’t worry lover
It’s really bursting at the seems
Absorbing everything
The spectrum’s a to z

This fact not fiction
For the first time in years
And all the girls in every girlie magazine
Can’t make me feel any less alone
I’m reaching for the phone

To call at 7:03 and on your machine I slur a plea for you to come home
But i know it’s too late
I should have given you a reason to stay
Given you a reason to stay [x3]

This is fact not fiction
For the first time in years
