I have a broken dream

Though I have a broken heart

I'm too busy to be heartbroken

There's a lot of things that need to be done

Lord, I have a broken heart

Though I have a broken dream

I'm too busy to be dreaming of you

There's a lot of things that I gotta do

Lord, I have a broken dream

And I'm wasted all the time

I've gotta drink you right off of my mind

I've been told that this will heal, given time

Lord, I have a broken heart

And I'm crying all the time

I have to keep it covered up with a smile

And I'll keep on moving on for a while

Lord, I have a broken heart

Spiritualized - Broken heart

Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space (1997)

-

Depuis quelques mois (années?), lors de mes séances d'écoutes musicales non dédiées à la découverte de nouveautés, je suis davantage à la recherche d' "intensité", qu'un morceau me fasse vibrer soniquement (#postrock #posthardcore) ou émotionnellement. Dans cette recherche de dopamine, mon cerveau m'a récemment suggéré ce morceau de Spiritualized... Candidat (commet cet autre) au titre de "plus belle chanson du monde"

I think I'll drink myself into a coma

Elue plus belle chanson de l'été?
On dirait du constellation
Pour cette occasion, j'inaugure ce que je tâcherai d'insérer plus souvent sur ce blog : un player !
(bon sang, mais c'est bien sûr)

I think I'll drink myself into a coma
And I'll take every way out I can find
But morphine, codeine, whisky, they won't alter
The way I feel now death is not around

So death take your fiddle
And play a song for me
Play a song we used to sing
The one that brought you close to me
Play a song and I will sing along

I think I'd like to take myself to heaven
Cause I ain't been there many times before
And Jesus Christ, if I don't know if I like it
Sadness struck a thousand times or more

So death take your fiddle
And play a song for me
Play a song we used to sing
The one that brought you close to me
Play a song and I will sing along

I think I'll drink myself into a coma
And I'll take every pill that I can find
But morphine, codeine, whisky, they won't alter
The way I feel now death is not around
The way I feel now death is not around
The way I feel now death is not around
