El mar aleja a las ciudades de la tristeza

Mario Merz

When I was young lying in the grass
I felt so safe in a warming bath
Of sunlight

The vast open sky could do no harm
Like an embrace from mother’s arms
In sunlight

But with every year that came to pass
More clouds appeared ‘til the sky went black
And there was no sunlight anymore

And it disappeared at the same speed
As the idealistic things I believed
The optimist died inside of me

Death Cab For Cutie

Últimamente me siento como un lesionado a quien le han robado sus muletas.

Although I'm not much of a reader, for some strange reason I enjoy wandering in bookstores and libraries. These are a few of the places where I can get away from the strain of daily life and find some sort of peace.

So goodbye lovely traintracks
Goodbye broken trees
The devil poured his concrete
Across all our empty fields
From shadows across our sunrise
And sand beneath our wheels
So goodbye lovely warehouse
And goodbye sleeping weeds
Your beauty was a shining thing
That fell away from me

Everybody gets a little lost sometimes

Jesus, Jesus help me
I'm alone in this world
And a fucked-up world it is too
Tell me, tell me the story
The one about eternity
And the way it's all gonna be

Wake up, wake up dead man

Jesus, I'm waiting here, boss
I know you're looking out for us
But maybe your hands aren't free
Your Father, He made the world in seven
He's in charge of heaven
Will you put a word in for me?

Wake up, wake up dead man

Listen to the words they'll tell you what to do
Listen over the rhythm that's confusing you
Listen to the reed in the saxophone
Listen over the hum of the radio
Listen over the sound of blades in rotation
Listen through the traffic and circulation
Listen as hope and peace try to rhyme
Listen over marching bands playing out their time

Wake up, wake up dead man

Jesus, were you just around the corner?
Did you think to try and warn her?
Were you working on something new?
If there's an order in all of this disorder
Is it like a tape recorder?
Can we rewind it just once more?

Wake up, wake up dead man

So maybe I wasn't
that good a friend
but you were one of us
and I will wonder
just like anyone
if there was something
else I could've done

So maybe it's true that
your cry for help
was oh, so very faint
but still I heard
and knew something was wrong
just nothing you could put your finger on
and I will wonder
just like anyone

Aimee Mann

Words get tangled on your tongue
And you stumble on your feet
When you miss somebody
And everywhere you think you see them
Walking down the street
When you miss somebody
When you miss somebody
You tell yourself a hundred thousand times
Nobody ever lives forever
So you give it one more try
To wave goodbye, wave goodbye

Every hurtful thing you ever said
Is ringing in your ear
When you miss somebody
And everything of beauty that you see
Only brings a tear
When you miss somebody
When you miss somebody
You tell yourself everything will be alright
Try to stand up strong and brave
When all you want to do is lay down and die

How long I've waited for an answer or a sign
Lonely and weary from
The troubled task of trying
To wave goodbye

So now you start to recognize
That every single path you see
Leads to a tear in your eye
So wave goodbye, wave goodbye

Olympus and Panasonic have announced a new, mirrorless format / lens mount based on (and compatible with) Four Thirds. The Micro Four Thirds system uses the same sensor size (18 x 13.5 mm) but allows slimmer cameras by removing the mirror box and optical viewfinder. The new format has three key technical differences: (1) roughly half the flange back distance (distance from mount to the sensor), (2) a smaller diameter lens mount (6 mm smaller) and (3) two additional contact points for lens-to-body communication (now 11 points). Removing the mirror mechanism allows this shorter flange back distance, meaning lenses for the new mount can be considerably smaller than current Four Thirds designs. The format will require framing to be carried out using Live View on either the LCD monitor or an EVF. Existing Four Thirds lenses can be used on Micro Four Thirds cameras using an adapter.

Estoy cansado de no tener apenas fuerzas para sonreír este año

Crazy as it sounds you won't feel as low as you feel right now
At least that’s what I've been told by everyone
I whisper empty sounds in your ear and hope that you won’t let go
Take the pieces and build them skywards

Cause I've started falling apart I’m not savouring life
I've forgotten how good it could be to feel alive

Biffy Clyro

Te levantas por la mañana y te dices a ti mismo "hoy no", pero los bajones siempre acaban llegando tarde o temprano, ya sea en casa o en la calle, a solas o, peor aún, rodeado de gente.

Limb by limb, tooth by tooth
Tearing up inside of me
Every day, every hour
I wish that I was bullet proof

Radiohead

These pictures hit home very hard...

Alone on a train aimless in wander
An outdated map crumpled in my pocket
But I didn’t care where I was going
‘Cause they’re all different names for the same place

I watched the coast disappear when the sea drowned the sun
And I knew no words to share it with anyone
The boundaries of language I quietly cursed
And all the different names for the same thing

Death Cab For Cutie

Ya han pasado dos semanas. Qué rápido pasa el tiempo y qué lento el dolor. A veces, creo que todavía está ahí, que cualquier domingo aparecerá por la puerta y me dará la mano. Pero entonces, sin avisar, la realidad me golpea, y no puedo evitar las lágrimas.

Hoy hace exactamente 21 años que te fuiste para siempre. Hace una semana el destino decidió que ya era hora de que él se reuniera contigo, y aún no me hago a la idea. Os echo tanto de menos.
