Protests in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and other Brazilian cities, set off by a 10-cent hike in public transport fares, have clearly moved beyond that issue to tap into widespread frustration in Brazil about a heavy tax burden, politicians widely viewed as corrupt and woeful public education, health and transport systems and come as the nation hosts the Confederations Cup soccer tournament and prepares for next month’s papal visit.

I remember the lost confusion of innocence
With feelings worn so clean
I wish I could look on this with different eyes
Ignore the blinders reminding me

Older, wiser, sadder

Trust has abandoned me lost ago
Stolen by careful dishonesty
I have forgotten how, I have forgotten how, I have forgotten how, how to believe

Stop me from loving to destroy
Stop me from destroying all I love
Stop me from loving to destroy
Stop me

The pain has stripped away all rationale
And left suspicion in its place
I wish I could cling to this with different arms
And never know the feeling of loss or emptiness

Older, wiser, sadder

Trust has abandoned me long ago
Stolen by careful dishonesty
I have forgotten how, I have forgotten how, I have forgotten how, how to believe

Stop me from loving to destroy
Stop me from destroying all I love
Stop me from loving to destroy
Stop me

The death of youth breathes life into this fear
Suffocating confidence
I die each day so I can save myself
I close my eyes, ignore the truth
And try hard to pretend

So afraid, so afraid
So afraid of myself
Stop me
Stop me
What’s wrong with me?
Stop me
What’s wrong with me?
Stop me

This made me smile. And I’ve had far too few of them lately.

Absolutely brilliant.

You’re no fun

Nine is by far the best of the newer Doctors (Four is still my favorite, though).

yup

this is a very important thing for everyone to know.

Know and understand. This what the fuck happened to me.

Staring down the hole again.
Hands are on my back again.
Survival is my only friend.
Terrified of what may come.
Remember I will always love you,
As I claw your fucking throat away.
It will end no other way,
It will end no other way.
