Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe.
– HG Wells

No human thing is of serious importance.
– Plato

Amen!

Some lyrics to music I like:

Miz – Not You

Is it me in the mirror
(Oh) I can’t believe this is my reflection
Suddenly, I’m not familiar
With these eyes that are supposed to be mine
They were never crying before
But things aren’t the same anymore

* Who’s gonna wipe away my tears when I feel lonely
Who’s gonna take away this pain that I fear
Who’s gonna guarantee that my heart won’t be breaking in two
Not you

Is it me in this bedroom
Cause I can’t believe waking up without you
I’m not the same since you left me
And there ain’t nothing that my love can do
Even though I’m trying I can’t ignore
That things aren’t the same as before

* repeat

Whoever is here to ease me
When I’m feeling blue
Not you

* repeat…

Whose gonna come for me
Not you

Suteki Da Ne (Isn’t it Beautiful) (My FAVORITE song 🙂
By: Nubou Uematsu (From Final Fantasy X)
I posted these before but I found ‘official’ lyrics.

Romanji: kaze ga yoseta kotoba ni oyoida kokoro kumo ga hakobu ashita ni hazunda koe tsuki ga yureru kagami ni furueta kokoro hoshi ga nagare koboreta yawarakai namida suteki da ne futari te wo tori aruketa nara ikitai yo kimi no machi ie ude no naka sono mune karada azuke yoi ni magire yumemiru kaze wa tomari kotoba wa yasashii maboroshi kumo wa yabure ashita wa tooku no koe tsuki ga nijimu kagami wo nagareta kokoro hoshi ga yurete koboreta kakusenai namida suteki da ne futari te wo tori aruketa nara ikitai yo kimi no machi ie ude no naka sono kao sotto furete asa ni tokeru yumemiru

English: My heart was swimming in words gathered by the wind My voice bounded into a cloud-carried tomorrow My heart trembled in the moon-swayed mirror Soft tears spilled with a stream of stars Isn’t it beautiful? If we could walk, hand in hand, I’d want to go to your town, your home, in your arms I dream of being against your chest my body in your keeping disappearing into the evening Words halted by wind are a gentle illusion A tomorrow torn by clouds is the voice of a distant place My heart that had been in a moon-blurred mirror that flowed Those stars that trembled and spilled cannot hide my tears Isn’t it beautiful? If we could walk, hand in hand, I’d want to go to your town, your home, in your arms My dream of your face that I softly touch melts in the morning

And, if you’ve played Kingdom Hearts II, Both the Japanese and English intro songs by Utada Hikaru
Passion and Sanctuary

Passion

Romanji: Omoidaseba haruka haruka Mirai wa doko made mo kagayaiteta Kirei na aozora no shita de Bokura wa sukoshi dake obieteita Natsukashii iro ni mado ga somaru Mae wo muitereba Mata aemasu ka Mirai wa doko e demo tsudzuiteiru n’ da Ooki na kanban no shita de Jidai no utsuroi wo mite itai na Nido to aenu Hito ni basho ni Mado wo akeru Omoidaseba haruka haruka Mirai wa doko made mo kagayaiteta Kirei na aozora no shita de Bokura wa itsumademo nemutte ita Zutto mae ni suki datta hito Fuyu ni kodomo ga umareru sou da Mukashi kara no kimari goto wo Tama ni utagaitaku naru yo Zutto wasurerarenakatta no Nengajou wa shashin tsuki kana Watashitachi ni dekinakatta koto wo Totemo natsukashiku omou yo Aozora no shita

English: When I remember back far, far The future was forever shining Below the brillianty blue sky We were only frightened a little This window is stained with sorely missed colours If I keep on looking forward Will I meet you again? Because the future really continues on forever Underneath a large sign I want to watch time change Towards the people, the places I will never see again I open this window When I remember back far, far The future was forever shining Below the pretty blue sky We slept endlessly The person I loved long ago Is to have a child in winter Sometimes I just want to doubt Our promises made long ago I could never forget I wonder if your New Year’s card will have a photo I just look back, and miss All the things we could never do Below the blue sky

Sanctuary
(wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I) // “I need more affection than you know” backwards
In you and I there’s a new land,
Angels in flight
(wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I) // “I need more affection than you know” backwards
My sanctuary, my sanctuary, yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music inside
(wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I) // “I need more affection than you know” backwards
What’s left of me
What’s left of me now

I watch you fast asleep,
All I fear means nothing

In you and I there’s a new land,
Angels in flight
(wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I) // “I need more affection than you know” backwards
My sanctuary, my sanctuary, yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music inside
(wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I) // “I need more affection than you know” backwards
What’s left of me
What’s left of me

(snwod dna spu ynam oS) // “So many ups and downs” backwards
My heart’s a battleground
(snoitome eurt deen I) // “I need true emotions” backwards
(wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I) // “I need more affection than you know” backwards
(snoitome eurt deen I) // “I need true emotions” backwards

You show me how to see,
That nothing is whole
and nothing is broken

In you and I there’s a new land
Angels in flight
(wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I) // “I need more affection than you know” backwards
My sanctuary, my sanctuary, yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music inside
(wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I) // “I need more affection than you know” backwards
What’s left of me
What’s left of me now
My fears, my lies
Melt away…
(wonk uoy naht noitceffa erom deen I) // “I need more affection than you know” backwards
