Someone

"If you look close enough to the world around you, you might find someone like you. Someone trying to find their way. Someone trying to find their self. Sometimes it seems like you are the only one in the world who's struggling, who's frustrated, unsatisfied, barely getting by. But that feeling's a lie. And if you just hold on, just find the courage to face it all for another day, someone or something will find you and make it all okay. Because we all need a little help sometimes. We need someone to remind us that it won't always be this way. That someone is out there. And that someone will find you."

"And the day I think it's just about making money is going to be the day that I've betrayed everything I believe in."

Stop telling me what to do!

I just can't take the fact that nobody seems to be able to understand that I don't need all the crap you want me to do to be happy. I just want to be myself, to have a job I love, to be near my family, to have my own space with all my personal stuff and that feeling of being home, to always search for more knowledge and to be able to help people in ways that I can't right now. That's all I need to be happy. So stop telling me what to do! 'Cause I won't do it. 

"You know what's better? Love. The day you start thinking that love is overrated is the day that you're wrong. The only thing wrong with love and faith and belief is not having it."

Do you ever wish you had a second chance to meet someone again for the first time?

"(...) Is someone telling you you can't or won't? Because you can. Believe that love is out there. Sometimes happiness doesn't come from money or fame or power. Sometimes happiness comes from good friends and family and the quiet nobility of leading a good life. So take a look in that mirror and remind yourself to be happy because you deserve to be. Believe that. And believe that dreams come true every day. Because they do."

Lyric Girl

You know, I've got this theory. There are two kinds of people in the world: there are lyric people and music people. 

The lyric people tend to be analytical. You know, all about the meaning of the song. They're the ones you see pouring over the lyrics, interpreting the hell out of everything. 

Then there's the music people...who couldn't care less for the lyrics as long as it has like a good beat and you could dance to it. 

I don't know, sometimes it might be easier to be a music girl and not a lyric girl. But since I'm not, let me just say this: Sometimes things find you when you need them to find you. I believe that. And for me it's usually song lyrics.

"Own it!
             Live It!
                         Love It!

Stop being ashamed of who you are."

"Well, you know what? Everyone is different and we all have to respect one another and our opinions!"

I think we look at society and we look at every advertisment that's out there and everything that tell us how we're supposed to look, how we're supposed to live and how we're supposed to be instead of saying "Is that how I really feel?", "Is that really what I want to do?"and "Is that really how I want to live?"

Lugares lotados de pessoas vazias

Sometimes that can be very hard but I  don't mind being different. I actually love it. I don't want to be like everybody else. I don't like what I see. When I look around I see people that give much importance to things like money, fame, power,...and other thinks like trust, honesty, love,...they have no value. 

So even though people don't understand me and think I'm some kind of freak when I'm expressing myself, I don't fucking care. 'Cause the truth is that the thoughts that other people have on you don't matter at all. What's really important is what you think of yourself. If you're proud of who you are.

You can call me all the things you want but at the end of the day I'm proud to be me.

"E cada vez mais o ser humano transforma coisas puras e bonitas em algo sem valor."

"Be happy,
                          be bright,
                                                   be you."

"We all have bad days but one things is true

no cloud is so dark that the sun can't shine through."

I knew you were trouble...

"I think when it's all over, it just comes back in flashes, you know? It's like a kaleidoscope of memories, it just all comes back. But he never does.

But I just thought, how can the devil be pulling you toward someone who looks so much like an angel when he smiles at you?

I guess I just lost balance. I think that the worst part of it all wasn't losing him. I was losing me.

I don't know if you know who you are until you lose who you are."

Overboard

Don't let yourself drown in that sadness. You are strong, beautiful and good enough. I promise you, everything is going to be alright. But you have to do something about it.
Sometimes there's no one that can save you but yourself.

Espera-nos sempre algo melhor

Conselho: Por mais triste que estejas, não te deixes levar por essa onda de tristeza. Sê forte, levanta-te, sai à rua e vê que o sol brilha para ti. Há sempre uma maneira de atingirmos algo melhor pois a vida não é só feita de coisas más. Força! Inspira-te e luta pelos teus objectivos. Procura apoio em todos aqueles de quem gostas. Mais cedo do que pensas estarás com um sorriso na cara e mais feliz que nunca.

Mine

Do you remember, we were sitting there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine.

(...)

As everything was slipping right out of our hands
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street
Braced myself for the "Goodbye"
'Cause that's all I've ever known
Then you took me by surprise
You said, "I'll never leave you alone."

You said, "I remember how we felt sitting by the water
And everytime I look at you, it's like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter
She is the best thing that's ever been mine."

Save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel.

So close your eyes...escape this town for a little while.

"Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let the pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness.Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place."
