exposed - not today

not today (by deav)
Rio, Abr 2003
(exposed)

the pain, the pain
it’s been there all day
though until now
i’ve lived my life in vain
i don’t want to die today

my life so far
has been sweetened with sweeter
always with that bitter taste in the end
i myself don’t understand why
i don’t want to die today

my body hurts all over
is it some cosmic joke?
when i’ve started to discover my own way
should the thread of life be broken?
no, i don’t want to die today

now that i started feeling?
now that i see some meaning?
now that i started singing?
now that my thoughts are spinning?
no, not today.

serious stuff

my lyrics and writings are protected by author's right (droit d'auteur), which is the system of legal protection in Civil Law countries which subscribed the Union Convention of Berna (1886), according to which the act of registration is declarative of the existing right.

my lyrics and writings, although not registered in any national or international organization of property rights, are also protected by copyright, which is the system of legal protection in Common-Law countries which subscribed the Universal Convention, according to which the act of registration (since 1976) is also declarative, not constitutive, of the existing right.

all this means that the lyrics and other things were written by me and cannot be used for commercial purposes without my authorization and the due payment of royalties.

if you want to use them, ask me! if you want to quote them, make a reference to the source (after all, that's what quoting means...)! please, don't abuse them (I'll sue you)!
