«Loneliness» (letra)

por Arturo Pardo · 29 de septiembre, 2010

Chasing bunnies in the garden, growing flowers with the morning sun
they know you love ‘em
Chatted hours, written letters, we all know there’s someone
that you want to be your best friend

But there’s no one that could be your friend
just too many people with familiar faces
there are days when you feel all alone
and you just want to ask for support
Your hope fades away… away

People that you think you know, a giant list of numbers in your phone
and there’s no one to count on.
A book of stories you could tell, a million places for a date but you
have no one to go with.

You have sparkling eyes and make up face
that is all that you can show to hide your sadness.
You should smoke cigars and drink some wine
Just to show yourself that they’re your best companion.

Between the silent walls no one talks, my agony remains inside my room
so no one will notice
I recall my early days, never thought that I would be alone
with no one to love me.

The clouds get dark and the rain falls
crying eyes and broken voice… No more!
In the echoes something let me think
there is someone that might love me while I’m dying

*La estructura de esta pieza se divide en tres partes: la primera cantada e interpretada por Bissinger, la segunda por Pardo y la tercera por ambos en un canon y terminando con la letra armonizada.

«Between the World and Me» (letra)

por Arturo Pardo · 29 de septiembre, 2010

There’s a hole world outside my window
I’ve heard many times that it spins while I’m breathing
That’s why people in China are awake while I sleep
And the sun goes down every afternoon and hides in the sea

I believe in evolution thanks to monkeys and Darwin
I don’t trust in institutions that repeat the tales of Adam and Eve
I think that we’re not alone in this huge solar system
It’s an egocentric thought to deny the existence of UFOs

I can see the world that’s outside my window, but a wall keeps me inside

In my mind there are conspiracy theories
about evil companies that move the brain of this world
That’s why people disappear every night while I sleep
and corrupt politicians reach the power even though they are mean

I will like to go outside to defend my ideas
I prefer to risk my life and not be quiet for the rest of my days
I live between four walls that are as thick as a brick
That’s the punishment for “mad men”, for “mad men” like me

I can see the world that’s outside my window, but a wall keeps me inside

I was silenced for a lifetime, against my freedom of speech
I’m a prisoner for having my own beliefs, but in my mind I’m free
I’m not the only one with this conviction, I know you’ll like to come with me
We can go swimming against the waves, together no one will be afraid

I can see the world that’s outside my window, but a wall keeps me inside

*Esta pieza es interpretada con bajo y charango, aún no ha sido grabada en estudio.

«Parents and Son» (letra)

por Arturo Pardo · 28 de septiembre, 2010

Tell me why, my dying son is waiting, yes he’s dying and you don’t let me be next to him

Step aside, I see no stop signs, I don’t care what you may say
Oh, crying out, desperation came while they arrived, in a bed he lied next to them.
Death, death was near, his heart was beating slowly, no sign of hope seemed to come
Fear seemed so close, but his parents came and hold his hand, then the beating had a second chance

Open your eyes, it’s day, it’s the start
Open your arms, welcome home with mom and dad

Bye, I said good bye, please come back and let me be your friend… just like every other day
Hi, I said hi, l missed you while you went away, l just wished to hug you again.
So, they stood there, never leaving when they were apart, never talked while they where near.
Strenght, keep your strength, come close during day light, stay closer in the dark.
This love is real, when a mother loves her children, when a father loves them well

Open your eyes, it’s day, it’s the start
Open your arms, welcome home with mom and dad

Oh, baby oh
Oh, baby oh


*Hasta el momento esta es la pieza más larga de Foffo Goddy sobrepasando los 5:30" de duración.

«He’s Gone» (letra)

por Arturo Pardo · 28 de septiembre, 2010

It’s not fair for he was taken away
Now his gone; he’s really gone
They cut his long life in a few seconds
Then he fell and he died at the same spot he was born

One by one they keep falling, condemned to stay down
Their spaces are now taken by spots to sit down
Under his shade I knew the meaning of hush
Breathing with his lungs I found the cure for my madness

But he’s gone, now he’s gone forever
And we couldn’t say good bye

Reposing in his shadow I smiled to nature
I enjoyed with him the delicate dance of wind 
They chopped his body with an ax in their hands
Now we can buy him in the shape of a chair 

His family keeps getting smaller as his departure arrives

*Hasta el momento esta es la canción con la que comenzamos los conciertos, esto porque las guitarras tienen una afinación diferente, con la primera cuerda en C#.
