A perfect circle - Passive

Ieri sera in macchina con i miei amici ho sentito uno spezzone di questa canzone e come spesso mi accade mi ritrovo il giorno dopo a riascoltarla perchè mi ha ricordato qualcosa oppure perchè da solo riesco a impossessarmene meglio. Questo pezzo è degli "A Perfect Circle" (link a wikipedia: A Perfect Circle) e s'intitola "Passive". Lo pubblico sul mio blog per una serie di strani motivi, il primo e molto attuale è che me lo sento mio visto che inizia così "Dead as dead can be, my doctor tells me but I just can't believe him" e chi mi conosce sa bene a cosa mi riferisco, il secondo motivo è che questo pezzo è nel film Constantine e...si che questo film lo sento mio, ho la storia originale nella mia green room, scritta da me nell'agosto del 1991 (non prendetemi per pazzo anche se lo sono). Terzo e ultimo motivo è la qualità della canzone di cui vi posto testo e video, buon ascolto!



“Dead as dead can be”, my doctor tells me
But I just can't believe him, ever the optimistic one
I'm sure of your ability to become my perfect enemy
Wake up and face me, don't play dead cause maybe
Someday I will walk away and say, “You disappoint me,”
Maybe you're better off this way

Leaning over you here, cold and catatonic
I catch a brief reflection of what you could and might have been
It's your right and your ability
To become…my perfect enemy…

Wake up (we'll catch you) and face me (come on now),
Don't play dead (don't play dead)
Cause maybe (because maybe)
Someday I'll (someday I'll) walk away and say, “You disappoint me,”
Maybe you're better off this way

Maybe you're better off this way
Maybe you're better off this way
Maybe you're better off this way
You're better of this…you're better off this…
Maybe you're better off!

Wake up (why can't you) and face me (come on now),
Don't play dead (don't play dead)
Cause maybe (because maybe)
Someday I'll (someday I'll) walk away and say, “You fucking disappoint me!”
Maybe you're better off this way

Go ahead and play dead (go)
I know that you can hear this (go)
Go ahead and play dead (go)
Why can't you turn and face me? (wake up)
Why can't you turn and face me? (wake up)
Why can't you turn and face me? (wake up)
Why can't you turn and face me? (you)
You fucking disappoint me!

Passive aggressive bullshit
