The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
two roads diverged in a wood, and I --
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Meu Mundo é Hoje
Paulinho da Viola
"...
Tenho pena daqueles que se agacham até o chão
Enganando a si mesmo por dinheiro ou posição
Nunca tomei parte desse enorme batalhão,
Pois sei que além de flores, nada mais vai no caixão.
Eu sou assim, quem quiser gostar de mim eu sou assim."

Round Here
Counting Crows
"...
Round here we're carving out our names
Round here we all look the same
Round here we talk just like lions
But we sacrifice like lambs
Round here she's slipping through my hands
...
Round here she's always on my mind
Round here I got lots of time
Round here we're never sent to bed early
and nobody makes us wait
Round here we stay up very, very, very, very late
I can see nothing... nothing round here
Will you catch if I'm falling
Will you catch me if I'm falling
Will you catch me cause I'm falling down on you
I said I'm under the gun around here
I'm innocent I'm under the gun around here
And I can see nothing
Nothing round here
"

Diz Adam Duritz, vocalista do Counting Crows:
"A música começa com um cara saindo pela porta da frente de casa e deixando essa mulher pra trás. Mas o quanto mais ele começa a deixar pessoas para trás em sua vida, mais ele sente que está se deixando para trás também. Ele sente que se está se tornando menos e menos importante para si mesmo. E é tipo isso que a música fala, porque ele sente que enquanto ele desaparece da vida das pessoas, mais e mais ele está desaparecendo da sua própria vida."
