Nina Simone - The Amazing Nina Simone - 01 Blue Prelude









You call me monster and with reason
and you call a crime what I call love,
but tell me, Adrian,
what other way out was there?
I've been thinking about this solution
that apparently offends your ideal reality
but dear
wake up!
you're not who you think you are
and if you had seen...
if you had seen fleeing through the dark corridors
of madness
believing that Cyclopean eons were biting at their heels...
if you had seen each night
expectant
before the unreal light
calling out to its door...
if you had heard it screaming in pain
the air for that light that said its name
with a fugitive accent...
and if you had heard it respond
in the language of the jug...
and if you had been there...
perhaps...
perhaps you would have stopped being
a coward

Call me monster if you want
I don't have any problem with it

I used to say that roses bloomed in oblivion
before I forgot
and that in a room where red roses burn
those roses of oblivion
and violin laments float
lives the fear that kills with subtlety
until the hypnotic music of the abyss...

What beautiful madness, Adrian,
that madness that shines
like the skin of dead fish...
How did you lose it?
I don't understand
I can't comprehend
And now,
tragicomic, you return
to the battlefield
valiant and reeking of morality
Who do you take me for, Adrian?
Call me monster if you want
It doesn't offend me
Do you have fire?
The only thing that makes me laugh
is your artificial sadness of a centipede,
your composed fright of a Pharisee...

If you had wanted to see it, Adrian,
perhaps you could have understood it...
but...
where were you, eh?

I don't know the exact point of its wonder
but I know the exact point where I was In a long and silent night buried deep
where I had only the unheard verses of a statue
and I wouldn't change it for anything
Call me monster if you want, dear Adrián,
your innocence is just a matter of perspective
