"Life for rent"

Acho que esta música nem precisa de introduções. Quem me conhece vai perceber de caras porque a escolhi, quem não me conhece só tem de acreditar quando eu digo que espelha exactamente uma faceta da minha personalidade e a preocupação que eu tenho a propósito desse aspecto. Descobri o significado da letra no Verão de 2004, quando estava em Afife. Acho que esse Verão foi o princípio da minha grande mudança.

"I haven't ever really found a place that I call home

I never stick around quite long enough to make it

I apologize that once again I'm not in love

But it's not as if I mind

That your heart ain't exactly breaking

It's just a thought, only a thought

If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy

Well I deserve nothing more than I get

Cos' nothing I have is truly mine

I always thought that I would love to live by the sea

To travel the world alone and live more simply

I have no idea what's happened to that dream

As there's really nothing left here to stop me

It's just a thought, only a thought

If my life is for rent and I don' learn to buy

Well I deserve nothing more than I get

Cos' nothing I have is truly mine

If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy

Well I deserve nothing more than I get

Cos' nothing I have is truly mine

While my heart is a shield and I won't let it down

While I am so afraid to fail so I won't even try

Well how can I say I'm alive?

If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy

Well I deserve nothing more than I get

Cos' nothing I have is truly mine

If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy

Well I deserve nothing more than I get

Cos' nothing I have is truly mine"
