A Moment Rather Than a Place (feat.Gimu and Factor Eight)
from Random Alarms EP (2013) by cellardoor
lyrics
“...entra numa cidade; vê alguém numa praça que vive uma vida ou um instante que poderiam ser seus; ele podia estar no lugar daquele homem se tivesse parado no tempo tanto tempo atrás, ou se tanto tempo atrás numa encruzilhada tivesse tomado uma estrada em vez de outra e depois de uma longa viagem se encontrasse no lugar daquele homem e naquela praça. Agora, desse passado real ou hipotético, ele está excluído; não pode parar; deve prosseguir até uma outra cidade em que outro passado aguarda por ele, ou algo que talvez fosse um possível futuro e que agora é o presente de outra pessoa. Os futuros não realizados são apenas ramos do passado: ramos secos. Os outros lugares são espelhos em negativo. O viajante reconhece o pouco que é seu descobrindo o muito que não teve e o que não terá.”
