Open to everything happy and sad
Seeing the good when it’s all going bad
Seeing the sun when I can’t really see
Hoping the sun will at least look at me

Die Liebe ist ein wildes Tier
Sie atmet dich sie sucht nach dir
Nistet auf gebrochenen Herzen
Geht auf Jagd bei Kuss und Kerzen
Saugt sich fest an deinen Lippen
Gräbt sich Gänge durch die Rippen
Lässt sich fallen weich wie Schnee
Erst wird es heiß dann kalt am Ende tut es weh

My apologies for being so egocentric in this post, but this is the actual title of latest Lady Gaga’s hit song. How many songs with the title Alejandro in the history of music? None. And this one came to me in a very curious way.
“Please Don’t” (David Byrne & Fatboy Slim (feat. Santigold)) on Imelda Marcos’s way of international politics
The world is full of intolerance,
greed, injustice, and dominance
A woman, a woman knows, knows relationships
That’s why, why I make, make my little trips

I close my eyes on the dance floor
I forget about you
I lose myself in flashing colors
I’ve gotta see it through
You’re too much,
I take it that we’re over
Should we even care at all?
You’re too much, too much
Lets shake hands and say goodbye
We are always running for the thrill of it, thrill of it
Always pushing up the hill searching for the thrill of it
On and on and on we are calling out and out again
Never looking down I’m just in awe of what’s in front of me
Is it real now
When two people become one
I can feel it
When two people become one

Spaces is a metaphor for the physical, mental and spiritual places where all things that can imprison or make us free act upon us. The liberation of these spaces is the first step towards our freedom.
