Arco can refer to:
Arco, despacio tiro,
en un segundo se derrumba de un suspiro,
guachos, de pa y de mama,
Julieta mía estoy colgando de la escala,
luces de las estrellas,
como encerrarlas aquí dentro, en mi botella.
Parches, tan mal cosidos
no va quedando un pichón sano en este nido.
Pampa, cerrá las piernas
te quiero libre del cafisho que gobierna
Nadie, del otro la'o,
nadie la cuenta, nadie ha paga'o.
Movete así, movete así
Sacudite nena.
Ya nunca, no, pasará mi pena.
no pasará mi pena? sacudite nena
Nuestra pena, sacudite nena.
Arco.... Arco .... Arco .... Arco .... Arco ....
so lay down your weary head
try and sleep now
calm your shallow little breath
be at peace now
another day calls out for you to make your own
this one goes where all the other days have flown
so lay down your weary head
be at peace now
try and sleep now
what does it mean to be loved?
what does it mean to be...
loved?
cast away your darkest fears
be released now
still the pounding in your heart
be at peace now
may your dreams bring joy and wonder through the night
and the morning find you glad to be alive
cast away your darkest fears
be at peace now
be released now
what does it mean to be loved?
what does it mean to be...
loved?
just lay down your weary head
be at peace now
preachers, leaders, writers, teachers
friends and lovers, you and i
everyone a liar
and everything a lie
all of this will fall
fade away or burn
all of this will fall
last bus sails away
and night calls an end to another day
no more you can do
to fight the things you need to get you through
someone to be strong
some belief that on the way
some peace could be found
we're all the same
as the last bus sails away
last bus sails away
and everything you were falls away
only this remains
always underneath our tired games
clear-eyed or confused
a quiet heart still feels the same
angered or amused
we're lost again
Sorry I didn't like your point of view
Didn't mean to upset you or hurt you
Find it hard to tell those sweet little lies
Always finding fault when I could compromise
I just want a perfect world
Sorry I don't see life the way you do
If I could I'd be just the same as you
Every day parade the things I feel inside
Not be frightened by the doubt that I can't hide
I just want a perfect world
Something beautiful preserved
And to take what we've been given's
A trick I've never learned
So the world falls off around you
You're standing on the edge
Know you'll fall it just hasn't happened yet
And there's no-one left to catch you
And even if there were
You're not sure you could repay such a debt
But I just can't seem to shake
The old pursuits of youth
Simple need to be
The seeker after truth
I just want a perfect world
Dumbest thing you ever heard
But to take what we've been given's
january sky like a slate wiped clean
and stillness of air where nothing has been
wait for your word as if to say
another last chance lives from today
happy new year - the world just keeps turning
day into night, night into day
holding on tight, millions all hoping
something like love will light up the way
dying for change, but the feeling won't last
summer will come and be over too fast
grow into sun, fade into rain
a miniature life to live over again
happy new year - the world just keeps going
tumbling round, screaming through space
holding on tight, millions all hoping
something like love will light up their face
happy new year to everyone hurting
praying this time it all becomes clear
here when the light is pale and uncertain
happy new year
when everyone agrees with you
you know you're wrong
when everyone embraces you
you don't belong
nothing these days
means what it says
everything's gone grey
takes a life to live to learn
where love comes from
only takes three little words
to know it's gone
nothing these days
means what it says
everything's gone grey
if you don't want to know the score
then just turn away
back to the world where papers burn
and words decay
nothing these days
means what it says
out of your clothes
i know it won't be long
god only knows
where this crazy thing comes from
it's not that i don't love you, i do
i've read all the definitions
think it must be true
it's like driving at night
when the illusion
i'm going somewhere
keeps me alive
driving at night
in this confusion
better to travel
never arrive
worried about
the future all the time
but there's no room for doubt
things'll work out fine
it's not that i don't want to, i do
got to spend this life with someone
might as well be you
thought life was like a diary
begun the day you're born
filled with crazy writing
up to the latest dawn
and reaching out from there
towards the page you'd never turn
the empty days
the fate you'd still to learn
thought life was like a diary
begun the day you're born
but nothing this confusing
could be so clearly drawn
and today i saw it in a different light
and my heart sank
the days to come were filled
autumn falls
everyone draws in and
twilight calls
and something feels so cold
it's not the freezing wind of winter
being near
it's just the fading into grey
of another year
and i'm walking down this shopping street
through families in the rain
pale and clear the light of dawn
evening's laughter long gone
even love a forgotten need
draw the shade and face the day
feel illusion float away
hold the dream and let it free
how many strangers d'you have to meet?
how many old friends d'you have to see?
with how many lovers d'you have to sleep?
to know that you're alone in all this world
feel the fear and let it pass
hear the questions no-one asks
close your eyes and let them see
how many strangers d'you have to meet?
how many times kneel at your god's feet?
with how many lovers d'you have to sleep?
every hour, every day
isn't nature denied?
in a world where it rains
you're the sun in the sky
but i can't bear to see you
'cos i can't bear the pain
and i can't heal the wounds
'cos i still can't explain
why i feel like an alien
not part of the human race
when my heart wants to burst
at the sight of your face
i feel like i'm suffering
from a beautiful disease
when your sad pretty smile
brings me down to my knees
such a simple thing
it should be such a simple thing
you can call me confused
all that i can confess
is i can't come to terms
settle for something less
will i feel this emotion
till the day that i die?
and go to my grave
still wondering why
won't be long before i'm old and i'd like
to think that i was in control of my life
but i can't make it change, can't break
the pattern
i'm waiting for an accident to happen
you're so beautiful i just have to laugh
you've got everything a girl could ever have
but how to tell you that i can't imagine
i'm waiting for an accident to happen
tried so hard to find a voice inside me
but nothing's like the ones i heard inspire me
all the words i thought i'd find i haven't
always this - same and different
always this - taken given
and never thought of change
still the song remains
if i'm gonna shed the second skin
i've always worn
think it's gonna be the strangest thing
i've ever done
but holding on - to some past present
is holding back - and future isn't
made for those who wait
better never than late
if i'm gonna shed the second skin
i've always worn
think it's gonna be the hardest thing
i've ever done
and still the shame to come restrains
hold me in these gentle arms until
how can i speak?
you've taken all the words
nothing to say
when you know you can't be heard
and silence isn't golden, it's absurd
but you won't give me the words
how can i live?
you've taken all the ways
nothing to do
just filling up the days
and this is not a role i choose to play
but i don't have a say
push me down but don't complain
saw an old friend just this evening
we go back a real long way
conversation kept returning
to the same old things we always say
getting tired of myself
wanna be someone else
and he asked me an opinion
and i couldn't say for sure
had a head full of ideas
don't care what i think no more
getting tired of myself
wanna be someone else
if only children knew
the lives their dreams eventually resolve to
i wonder what they'd do
saw another perfect stranger
would have once meant everything
didn't even raise an eyebrow
it's just the way it's always been
getting tired of myself
life's a bad movie i see it all coming
can't draw me in out of my disbelief
the purest emotion's just cheap imitation
can't get involved, get a moment's relief
life's a bad movie but i'm way past caring
so i'll sit and watch with a beer and some friends
together we'll laugh at the plot and the people
sometimes a word emerges
out of the silent stream
that runs beneath opinion
illusion of the waking dream
we are not what we seem
something prevents me looking
it must be for the best
but still the half-heard whisper
reminds me that i've failed the test
to know your own unrest
i know a choice is coming
for peace or honesty
pour concrete on the footprints
from everything that you might be
