Only a brave man can break through

Seguimos metiéndole gasolina al blog con un tema que me marcó en su día, de una chica que sigo desde su primer single y cuyas canciones me han acompañado en los últimos 14 años.

Sin duda, 'That Day' es mi tema favorito de Natalie Imbruglia. Imperfecto, rápido, desastre, torpe, con frases que se pisan entre sí y la mejor letra del mundo. And I'm wrong, and I'm beautiful.

Os obligo a que la llevéis en vuestro mp3 y el día que os sintáis un poco bajos de moral, la pongáis en repeat y os atreváis a andar por la calle sin sonreír. Os reto a ello.

That day, that day
What a mess what a marvel
I walked into that cloud again
And I lost myself
And I’m sad, sad, sad
Small, alone, scared
Craving purity
A fragile mind and
A gentle spirit
That day, that day
What a marvelous mess
This is all that I can do
I’m done to be me
Sad, scared, small, alone, beautiful
It’s supposed to be like this
I accept everything
It’s supposed to be like this

That day, that day
I lay down beside myself
In this feeling of pain, sadness
Scared, small, climbing, crawling
Towards the light
And it’s all I see and
I’m tired and I’m right
And I’m wrong
And it’s beautiful

That day that day
What a mess
What a marvel
We’re all the same
And no one thinks so
And it’s okay
And I’m small
And I’m divine
And it’s beautiful
And it’s coming
But it’s already here
And it’s absolutely perfect

That day, that day
When everything was a mess
And everything was in place
And there’s too much hurt
Sad, small, scared, alone
And everyone’s a cynic
And it’s hard and it’s sweet
But it’s supposed
To be like this

That day, that day
When I sat in the sun
And I thought and I cried
’cause I’m sad, scared, small
Alone, strong
And I’m nothing
And I’m true
Only a brave man
Can break through
And it’s all okay
Yeah, it’s okay
