Letra da Música It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding) de Caetano Veloso

Darkness at the breal of noon
Shodoes even the silver spoon
The handmade blade, the child's balloon
Eclipses both the sun and moon
To understand you know too soon
There is no sense in trying
Ponted threats, they bluff with scom
Suicide remarks are torn
form the fool's gold mouthpiece
The hollow horn plays wasted words
Proves to warn
That he's not busy being born
He's busy dying Temptation's page flies out the door
You follow, find yourself at war
Watch waterfalls of pity roar
You feel to moan but unlike before
You discover that you'd just be
One more person crying
So don't fear if you hear
A foreign sound to your ear it's alright, Ma, I'm only sighing
As some warn victory, some downfall
Private reasons great or small
Can be seen in the eyes of those that call
To make all that should be killed to craw
Whille ofthers say don't hate nothing at all except hatred
Disillusioned words like bullets bark
As human gods aim for their mark
Make everything from toy guns that spark
To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark
It's easy to see without looking too far
That not much is really sacred
While preachers preach of evil fates
Teachers teach that knowledge waits
Can lead to hundred-dollar plates
Goodness hides behind its gates
But even the president of
the United States
Sometimes must have
To stand naked
An' though the rules of the road have been lodged
It's only people's games that you gotta lodge
And it's alright, Ma, I can make it
Advertising signs that con you
Into thinking you're the one
That can do what's never been done
That can win what's never been won
Meantime life outside goes on
All around you
You lose yourself, you reappear
You suddenly find you got nothing to fear
Alone you stand with nobody near
When a trernbling distant voice, unclear
Starties your sleeping ears to hear
That somebody thinks they really found you
A question in your nerves is lit
Yet you know there is no asnwer to fit to satisfy
Eensure you not to quit
To keep it in your mind and not forget
That it is not he or she or them or it
That you belong to
Although the masters make the rules
For the wise men and the fools
I got nothing, Ma, to live up to
Old lady judges watch people in pairs
Limited in sex, they dare
To push fake morals, insult and stare
While money doesn't
talk, it swears
Obscenity, who really cares
Propaganda, all is phony
While them that defend what they cannot see
With a killer's pride, security
It blows the minds most bitterly
Fo them that think death's honesty
Won't fall upon them naturally
Life sometimes
Must get lonely
My eyes collide head-on with stuffed graveyards
False dods, I scuff at pettiness which plays so rough
Walk upside-down inside handcuffs
Kick my legs to crash it off
say okay, I've had enough
What else can you show me?
And if my thought-dreams could be seen
They'd probably put my head in a guillotine
But it's alright, Ma, it's life, and life only
