Canciones que inspiran: Brandi Carlile – My Song

No hace tanto que descubrí a esta americana (Rivensadale, Washington, 1981) que cuenta con algunas canciones realmente magnéticas, pero los últimos meses dos de sus discos -‘Give Up The Ghost’ (2009) y ‘The Story’ (2007), al que pertenece la canción que hoy comparto- vienen ocupando una parte muy importante de mi atención.

El tema cuya interpretación en directo (grabada por un asistente a un concierto, con las limitaciones que tiene eso) os dejo se titula ‘My Song’.

Everything I do surrounds these pieces of my life
That often change or maybe I’ve changed
And sometimes seeming happy can be self destructive
Even when you’re sane or only insane

But don’t bother waking me today

Here I am I’m so young
I know I’ve been bitter I’ve been jaded I’m alone
Every day I’ll bite my tongue
If you only knew my mind was full of razors
That cuts you like a word if only sung

But this is my song it is my song

Now I live every day like there’ll never be a last one
Till they’re gone and they’re gone
And I’m too proud to beg for your attention
And your friendship and your time
So you can come and get it from now on

Here I am I’m so young
I know I’ve been bitter I’ve been jaded I’m alone
Every day I’ll bite my tongue

If you only knew my mind was full of razors
That cuts you like a word if only sung

This is my song it’s my song

And it’s you it is you

Here I am I’m so young
I know I’ve been bitter I’ve been jaded I’m alone
Every day I’ll bite my tongue
If you only knew my mind was full of razors

I’m not sure I can take it I’m nothing strong to hold to
I’ll wait to only hate you my mind is full of razors
That cuts you like a word if only sung

But this is my song
