_você é tão velho quanto a última vez que mudou de idéia.

e quando estiver cansado
deito na beira do rio
mando chamar a mãe-d’água
pra me contar as histórias
que no tempo de eu menino
rosa vinha me contar
vou-me embora pra Pasárgada

em Pasárgada tem tudo
é outra civilização
tem um processo seguro
de impedir a concepção
tem telefone automático
tem alcalóide à vontade
tem prostitutas bonitas
para a gente namorar

e quando eu estiver mais triste
mas triste de não ter jeito
quando de noite me der
vontade de me matar
— lá sou amigo do rei —
terei a mulher que eu quero
na cama que escolherei
vou-me embora pra Pasárgada.

riverside - through the other side.

so welcome to the no man’s land
where you can finally face yourself.
fear of feeling something real is your friend now,
there’s no need to run.

so welcome to the no man’s land
where nothing is as it seems.
mysteries hidden from six feet
under and six feet above.

and to feel your heart this way
before it gets too late.

the moon began to split in half
and the darkness could be touched.
blindfolded, you’re trying to find a way
to the bottom of your soul.

well, i can see all your scars
that you wish you could hide.
and i won’t let you remember what it was like
when you were here before.

and to hear your voice again.
and to feel your touch this way
before it gets too late.
