A Mensagem

Quando eu vi este clip pela primeira vez me impressionou. Assisti a estreia dele, digamos, sem palavras. Porque eu vi nele aquilo que mais me apavora : a uniformização do ser humano, o conformismo. Olhei pra TV no fim e fiquei pensando ainda mais do que deveria.

Depois de ter falado com a minha irmã na sexta feira, sabendo das opiniões dela do momento, achei que era a hora de colocar isto aqui no blog.

Mesmo para quem me conhece superficialmente, saberá que isto é apenas uma pequena parte daquilo que sinto.





É de 1998...


"If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next"

The future teaches you to be alone
The present to be afraid and cold
So if I can shoot rabbits
Then I can shoot fascists

Bullets for your brain today
But we'll forget it all again
Monuments put from pen to paper
Turns me into a gutless wonder

And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next

Gravity keeps my head down
Or is it maybe shame
At being so young and being so vain

Holes in your head today
But I'm a pacifist
I've walked La Ramblas
But not with real intent

And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next

And on the street tonight an old man plays
With newspaper cuttings of his glory days

And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
Will be next
Will be next
Will be next
