Limbo No More

Por vezes surgem por aí músicas que parecendo que não dizem exactamente aquilo que somos, que sentimos, pelo que passamos. Em tempos achava (e de certo modo continuo a achar) que a música que melhor me descrevia era a "Don't Want to fight No More" daquela que é e será sempre a minha diva, a Tina Turner, mas eis que de repente dou por mim a ouvir esta música da Alanis Morissette e de facto não há melhor música que possa descrever-me do que esta...



My house, my role
My friends, my man
My devotion to god
All the more feels indefinite

Nothing's been clear
Nothing's been in
Nothing's felt true
And I've never had both feet in
Nothing's belonged
Nothing's been yes
Nowhere's been home
And I'm ready to be limbo no more

My taste, my peers
My identity, my affiliation
All the more feels indefinite

Nothing's been clear
Nothing's been in
Nothing's felt true
And I've never had both feet in
Nothing's belonged
Nothing's been yes
Nowhere's been home
And I'm ready to be limbo no more

I sit with filled frames
And my books and my dogs at my feet
My friends by my side
My past in a heap
Thrown out most of my things
Only kept what I need to carve
Something consistent and notably me

Tattoo on my skin
My teacher's in heart
My house is a home
Something at last I can feel a part of
Sense of myself
My purpose is clear
My roots in the ground
Something at last I can feel a part of
Something aligned
To finally commit
Somewhere I belong
Cuz I'm ready to be limbo no more
My wisdom applied
A firm foundation
A vow to myself
'Cuz I'm ready to be limbo no more
