Favorite Song Lyrics

[Clockwork Chaos 219]

What is this chill at my heel

That makes the protections I've built around my pseudo-world premere?

Tearing my utopian fiction apart

As it happens to just pass along.

 

[DaReaper 1,945]

My favorite song changes i usualy put the lyrics in my sig so latly it's been "115" by Elena Seigman it's just wow dark lyrics and it's about turning into a zombie was th hidden easter egg on Black Ops zomebie map "Kino Der Toten" (theater of the dead)

 

No one can see me and
I've lost all feeling and
I know I won't die alone
I'll stop you from breathing and
all your deceiving and
this house is not my home

No
More forgiveness
No
and the reason is
I know I wont die alone

I have returned


and everyone dies and
everyone lies
They're waiting for the second coming again

Everyone tries to hold onto their lives
When no one's alive
Bring me 115

[Verse 2]
You stand for nothing and
overlooked something
I'll bring you down all on my own

I'm the end I can taste it
I'll justify hatred
I am the chosen one
left hand of all that's sacred


No
More forgiveness
No
I'll bring you death and pestilence
I'll bring you down on my own.

I have returned


and everything dies
look to the skies
to see the end of all creation again

See with your eyes
my army of flies
when no one's alive
bring me 115


I've lost all form and unity
where has my life gone
I'll bring you doom that you can see
and bring you down to see you bleed.


and everyone dies and
everyone lies
They're waiting for the second coming again

Everyone tries to hold onto their lives
When no one's alive
Bring me 115

and everything dies
look to the skies
to see the end of all creation again

See with your eyes
my army of flies
when no one's alive
bring me 115

and nobody cries
when everyone dies
and no one's alive
bring me 115

[Moog the Kvlt 1,460]

 

Now you be the mother,

And I'll be your fool,

I'll hide myself deep inside,

Your crimson pool.

The muddy water runs,

Beneath your folds,

You won't let me breathe,

You won't let me go.

Now you be the stranger,

And I'll be the white-skinned son,

You'll blacken my innocence,

With sugar and opium...The children were suffocating,

Down in your damp cave,

And you were the mother,

And I was the sleeping slave.

Protect me from violence,

Hold me in your cool lips,

You drug me with kindness,

So I can pretend I exist.

Now you be the oly child,

I'll suck on your breast,

You'll feed me with gasoline,

I'll burn my name in your head.

[SCS 7,537]

I often get really into a song's lyrics, so I can't choose a particular favorite. I'll just post a few songs.
 
Aevum by Obscura (technical death metal)

Where profound souls shy away from self fulfillment
We stroll in silence through this universe
Where abysmal pansophy wallows in deepness
To enjoy the bliss of a fractional existence

The holiest necessity of inner being is not a law for nature
In nature even divine necessity takes on the bleach animosity
To keep our inner being free of this contradiction
With the irresistible force fore of a terrible necessity once present

Those who are ashamed to start from the earth
To climb up from the creature mankind
To draw those thoughts that are beyond
Earth, fire, water, and air

Void Dimension - as man stands here on earth
Void Dimension - as flash of eternity

As man stands here on earth in this life
As flash of eternity that enlighten this gloominess
Portraying this progeny of their soul as enigma
Devoured by its own will, unbounded, inevitable

Wherever one thing reaches into the other
Neither of the others can leave
Each requires the other

 
 
Ocean Gateways by Obscura (technical death metal)

I consider our Earth as a part of the lowest area
We live as we were at the bottom of the sea
Where nothing is pure and undespoiled
Where everything is eaten and eroded

Where the grips of externality is unable freely
To emerge beyond a certain space of this one
Where nothing is pure and undespoiled
Where everything is wet and salt

Where earth and spirit unite
An opposition to the visible
A call of the purified souls
Emerges beyond, breaks free

Deliverance - an acroamatic halo
Deprivation - in particular obedience
Eclipsed - shackled and torn apart
Emptiness - devoid of heart and soul

Euclidean Elements by Obscura (technical death metal)

Our time will be devised as they will be
Taken from the present, above and below
When you become the salt in the wounds
Mankind will rise again - baptism by fire

An imagination along unrestricted bounds
A distant future, appearance of illusion
When you feel the merge within the wounds
Mankind will rise again - baptism by fire

When we fall toward a new sun aeon
Nothing more than a mere underneath
When you see throughout the worlds
Within the suns - downward and dead

Between our visible world
At the place, highest of all
I will turn to my mind's eye
Where the blame lies with me

We are here among ourselves
With the sun and stars above us
An abyss within the depth
At a splendid place, above and below

Elusive Reaches by Ensiferum (melodic/heroic death metal)

Protector of the sun arrives with light
From the edge of the world to the highest heights.
With a thunder blast he greets his twin,
And falls back to oblivion.

From the western plains where nature blooms.
Roams the swift brother in eternal blue.
Chasing the vanishing golden light.
Hasting towards an endless night.

Across the high northern skies
The eldest brother in all his might.
Guards the frozen barren land
With a token of wisdom in his hand.

Forlorn moon and dreadful mist
The youngest brother raises his fist.
All life slowly withers away
And the infinite circle begins again.

The trail of the winds remains unseen,
For mortals their realm stays concealed.
The ageless skies that stand before our eyes,
When we'll be gone they'll still be flying free.

Silvery light of the sea,
Sparkles of far beneath.
Cold breeze against their brawn,
Reminds them of cold steel and war!

Mourning Tree by Leaves' Eyes (symphonic metal)

So far away
But still so close
So many days
I've had to count
The meaning of life
Comes true when I'm with you
For in me there's a flower growing

Tell him through the winds I am here
Whisper through the breeze not to fear
Taste it by the rain what I feel when you hold me
Reach out for the winds that we share
Then you will feel I am near
Taste it by the snow, I am here where you left me

I told to the mourning tree

The long way home
Is never too far
Unless you've reached the end of life
My deepest wish
Comes true when I'm with you
For in me there's a miracle growing

Storytime by Nightwish (symphonic metal)

It was the night before,
When all through the world,
No words, no dreams
Then one day,
A writer by a fire
Imagined all of Gaia
Took a journey into a child-man's heart...

A painter on the shore
Imagined all the world
Within a snowflake on his palm
Unframed by poetry
A canvas of awe
Planet Earth falling back into the stars

I am the voice of Never-Never-Land
The innocence, the dreams of every man
I am the empty crib of Peter Pan,
A soaring kite against the blue, blue sky,
Every chimney, every moonlit sight
I am the story that will read you real,
Every memory that you hold dear

I am the journey,
I am the destination,
I am the home
The tale that reads you
A way to taste the night,
The elusive high
Follow the madness,
Alice you know once did

Imaginarium, a dream emporium!
Caress the tales
And they will dream you real
A storyteller's game,
Lips that intoxicate
The core of all life
Is a limitless chest of tales...

I am the voice of Never-Never-Land
The innocence, the dreams of every man
I am the empty crib of Peter Pan,
A soaring kite against the blue, blue sky,
Every chimney, every moonlit sight
I am the story that will read you real,
Every memory that you hold dear

I am the voice of Never-Never-Land
The innocence, the dreams of every man
Searching heavens for another Earth

I am the voice of Never, Never Land
The innocence, the dreams of every man
I am the empty crib of Peter Pan,
A soaring kite against the blue, blue sky,
Every chimney, every moonlit sight
I am the story that will read you real,
Every memory that you hold dear

Song of Myself by Nightwish (symphonic metal)

[1. From A Dusty Bookshelf]

[2. All That Great Heart Lying Still]

The nightingale is still locked in the cage
The deep breath I took still poisons my lungs
An old oak sheltering me from the blue
Sun bathing on its dead frozen leaves

A catnap in the ghost town of my heart
She dreams of storytime and the river ghosts
Of mermaids, of Whitman's and the ride
Raving harlequins, gigantic toys

A song of me, a song in need
Of a courageous symphony
A verse of me, a verse in need
Of a pure heart singing me to peace

All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
All that great heart lying still on an angel wing

All that great heart lying still
In silent suffering
Smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end
What is left for encore
Is the same old dead boy's song
Sung in silence
All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
All that great heart lying still on an angel wing

A midnight flight into Covington Woods
A princess and a panther by my side
These are Territories I live for
I'd still give my everything to love you more

A song of me, a song in need
Of a courageous symphony
A verse of me, a verse in need
Of a pure heart singing me to peace

All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
All that great heart lying still on an angel wing

Now all that great heart lying still
In silent suffering
Smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end
What is left for encore
Is the same old dead boy's song
Sung in silence

All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
All that great heart lying still on an angel wing

[3. Piano Black]

A silent symphony
A hollow opus #1,2,3

Sometimes the sky is piano black
Piano black over cleansing waters

Resting pipes, verse of bore
Rusting keys without a door

Sometimes the within is piano black
Piano black over cleansing waters

All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
All that great heart lying still on an angel wing
All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
All that great heart lying still on an angel wing
All that great heart lying still and slowly dying
All that great heart lying still on an angel wing

[4. Love]

I see a slow, simple youngster by a busy street,
A begging bowl in his shaking hand.
Trying to smile but hurting infinitely. Nobody notices.
I do, but walk by.

An old man gets naked and kisses a model-doll in his attic
It's half-light and he's in tears.
When he finally comes his eyes are cascading.

I see a beaten dog in a pungent alley. He tries to bite me.
All pride has left his wild, drooling eyes.
I wish I had my leg to spare.

A mother visits her son, smiles to him through the bars.
She's never loved him more.

Arabesque girl enters an elevator with me.
All dressed up fancy, a green butterfly on her neck.
Terribly sweet perfume deafens me.
She's going to dinner, alone.
That makes her even more beautiful.

I see a model's face on a brick wall.
A statue of porcelain perfection beside a violent city kill.
A city that worships flesh.

The first thing I ever heard,
was a wandering man telling his story
It was you, the grass under my bare feet
The campfire in the dead of night
The heavenly black of sky and sea

It was us,
Roaming the rainy roads, combing the gilded beaches
Waking up to a new gallery of wonders every morn
Bathing in places no one's seen before
Shipwrecked on some matt-painted island
Clad in nothing but the surf - beauty's finest robe

Beyond all mortality we are, swinging in the breath of nature
In early air of the dawn of life
A sight to silence the heavens

I want to travel where life travels,
following its permanent lead
Where the air tastes like snow music
Where grass smells like fresh-born Eden
I would pass no man, no stranger, no tragedy or rapture
I would bathe in a world of sensation
Love, goodness and simplicity
(While violated and imprisoned by technology)

The thought of my family's graves was the only moment
I used to experience true love
That love remains infinite,
as I'll never be the man my father is

How can you "just be yourself"
when you don't know who you are?
Stop saying "I know how you feel"
How could anyone know how another feels?

Who am I to judge a priest, beggar,
w****, politician, wrongdoer?
I am, you are, all of them already

Dear child, stop working, go play
Forget every rule
There's no fear in a dream

"Is there a village inside this snowflake?"
- a child asked me
"What's the colour of our lullaby?"

I've never been so close to truth as then
I touched its silver lining

Death is the winner in any war
Nothing noble in dying for your religion
For your country
For ideology, for faith
For another man,
Yes

Paper is dead without words
Ink idle without a poem
All the world dead without stories
Without love and disarming beauty

Careless realism costs souls

Ever seen the Lord smile?
All the care for the world made Beautiful a sad man?
Why do we still carry a device of torture around our necks?
Oh, how rotten your pre-apocalypse is
All you bible-black fools living over nightmare ground

I see all those empty cradles and wonder
If man will ever change

I, too, wish to be a decent man-boy but all I am
Is smoke and mirrors
Still given everything, may I be deserving

And there forever remains the change from G to E-Minor

The Poet and the Pendulum by Nightwish (symphonic metal)

[Part 1: White Lands Of Empathica]

The end.

The songwriter's dead.
The blade fell upon him
Taking him to the white lands
of empathica,
of innocence
Empathica
Innocence

[Part 2: Home]

The dreamer and the wine
Poet without a rhyme
A widow writer torn apart by chains of Hell

One last perfect verse
It's still the same old song
Oh Christ, how I hate what I have become

Take me home

[Chorus:]
Get away, run away, fly away
Lead me astray to dreamer's hideaway
I cannot cry 'cause the shoulder cries more
I cannot die, I, a w**** for this cold world
Forgive me,
I have but two faces
One for the world,
One for God,
save me
I cannot cry 'cause the shoulder cries more
I cannot die, I, a w**** for this cold world

My home was there and then, those meadows of heaven
Adventure-filled days
One with every smiling face

Please, no more words
Thoughts from a severed head
No more praise,
Tell me once my heart goes right

Take me home

[Chorus]

[Part 3: The Pacific]

Sparkle my scenery
With Turquoise waterfall
With beauty underneath
The ever free

Tuck me in beneath the blue
Beneath the Pain,
Beneath the rain
Goodnight kiss for a child in time
Swaying blade my lullaby

On the shore we sat and hoped
Under the same pale moon
Whose guiding light chose you,
Chose you all

"I'm afraid, I'm so afraid.
being raped, again and again, and again
I know I will die alone
but loved.

You live long enough to hear the sounds of guns,
Long enough to find yourself screaming every night,
Live long enough to see your friends betray you.

For years I've been strapped unto this altar.
Now I only have three minutes and counting.
I just wish the tide would catch me first and give me
a death I always longed for."

[Part 4: Dark Passion Play]

2nd robber to the right of Christ
Cut in half - infanticide
The world will rejoice today
As the crows feast on the rotting poet

Everyone must bury their own
No pack to bury the heart of stone
Now he`s home in hell, serves him well
Slain by the bell, tolling for his farewell

The morning dawned upon his altar
Remains of the dark passion play
Performed by his friends without shame
Spitting on his grave as they came

[Chorus]

"Today, in the year of our Lord, 2005
Tuomas was called from the cares of the world
He stopped crying at the end of each beautiful day.
The music he wrote had too long been without silence.
He was found naked and dead,
With a smile in his face, a pen and 1000 pages of erased text."

Save me

[Part 5: Mother And Father]

Be still, my son
You`re home
Oh when did you become so cold?
The blade will keep on descending
All you need is to feel my love

Search for beauty, find your shore
Try to save them all, bleed no more
You have such oceans within
In the end, I will always love you

The beginning.

Pristine by Delain (gothic/symphonic metal)

Once upon the dawn
Day will break
It begins on time
Flowing while it's glowing
It arrives on time

Subjected to origin
Is to know that nothing
Becomes of the contemptible
Waiting for the dawn
Hope to find
I'll cling to my pride

Clearest form
Closest to pure perfection
The essence yet unfolds itself
The chain of strength it holds

Waiting for the dawn
Hope to find
I'll cling to my pride
Reaching from the inside
All I know, night must go

Open the dawn
Behold the purest form
The essence unfolds
The chain of strength you held

As a distant dream I hover
I call all the stars
As a distant dream I hover
Call all stars to fall for cover

Choir of Spirits by Obscura (technical death metal)

In his blessed name, who was his own creation
Who from all time makes his own vocation
The name of him who makes our faith so bright
Love, confidence, activity and might

In that ones name who named through oft he be
Unknown is ever in reality
As far as our ear can reach
Or eyesight dim

Thou findest but the known resembling him
How high soar thy fiery spirit hovers
Its smile and type it straight discovers
Onward, thou art drawn
With feelings light and clear

Where ever thou goest, your mind is the way
No more thou numbrest, reckonest no time
Each step is infinite, each step sublime

Unknown is ever in reality
As far as our ear can reach
Or eyesight dim

One question haunts and hurts,

Too much, too much to mention,

Was I really seeking good,

Or just seeking attention?

 

That lyric in particular speaks to me. Plus, this is just a fantastic song from an incredible musical, sung by an inordinately talented singer. ^^

[Lion Keyla 51]

 

A warning, to the people

The good and, the evil

This...is...war

To the soldier, the civillian

The martyr, the victim

This...is...war

 

A warning to the prophet, the liar, the honest

This...is...war

OH! To the leader, the pariah! The victim, the messiah!

This...is...WAAAR!

Ah, I loved this song like a year ago, it's still really good.

Nowadays when I hear it I can only think of the tv show supernatural, because I saw a fanvideo with it.

 

Right now my favorite song lyrics is from "Must have done something right" by Relient K. ^^

 

"Maybe I'm just lucky cause it's hard to believe

Believe that somebody like you'd end up with someone like me" - This. It's so true and I can relate so much to the whole song in fact.

[tehAgg 268]

Heya! I'm a BIG fan of the actual lyrics of many songs, so I figured I'd make this thread so that everyone can share their favorite lyrics.

Here's a few that I love.

Queensryche - Spreading The Disease

WARNING: SEMI-EXPLICIT LYRICS

She always brings me what I need
Without I beg and sweat and bleed
When we're alone at night
Waiting for the call
She feeds my skin

Sixteen and on the run from home
Found a job in Times Square
Working live S & M shows
Twenty-five bucks (a fuck)
And John's a happy man
She wipes the filth away
And it's back on the streets again

Spreading the disease
Everybody needs
But no one wants to see

Father William saved her from the streets
She drank the lifeblood from the saviour's feet
She's Sister Mary now, eyes as cold as ice
He takes her once a week
On the altar like a sacrifice

Spreading the disease
Everybody needs
But no one wants to see

Religion and sex are powerplays
Manipulate the people for the money they pay
Selling skin, selling God
The numbers look the same on their credit cards
Politicians say no to drugs
While we pay for wars in South America

Fighting fire with empty words
While the banks get fat
And the poor stay poor
And the rich get rich
And the cops get paid
To look away
As the one percent rules America

Spreading the disease
Everybody needs
But no one wants to see
The way society
Keeps spreading the disease

Dream Theater - Strange Deja Vu

V stands for Victoria, N stands for Nicholas

[N:]
Subconscious strange sensation
Unconscious relaxation
What a pleasant nightmare
And I can`t wait to get there again

Every time I close my eyes
There`s another vivid surprise
Another whole life waiting
Chapters unfinished, fading

Closer now - Slowly coming into view
I`ve arrived - Blinding sunshine beaming through

There`s a house I`m drawn into
Familiar settings, nothing new
There`s a pathway leading there
With a haunting chill in the air

There`s room at the top of the stairs
Every night I`m drawn up there
There`s a girl in the mirror
Her face is getting clearer
Young child won`t you tell me why I`m here?

In her eyes - I sense a story never told
Behind the disguise - There`s something tearing
At her soul

[V:]
Tonight I`ve been searching for it
A feeling that`s deep inside me
Tonight I`ve been searching for
The one that nobody knows
Trying to break free

I just can`t help myself
I`m feeling like I`m going out of my head
Tears my heart into two
I`m not the one the sleeper thought he knew

[N:]
Back on my feet again
Eyes open to real world
Metropolis surrounds me
The mirror`s shattered the girl

Why is this other life
Haunting me everyday
I`d break through the other side
If only I`d find the way

Something`s awfully familiar
The feeling`s so hard to shake
Could I have lived in that other world
It`s a link that I`m destined to make

I`m still searching but I don`t know what for
The missing key to unlock my mind`s door

Today I am searching for it
A feeling that won`t go away
Today I am searching for it
The one that I only know
Trying to break free

I just can`t help myself
I`m feeling like I`m going out of my head
Tears my soul into two
I`m not the one I thought I always knew

I just can`t help myself
I`m feeling like I`m going out of my head
Uncanny, strange Deja Vu
But I don`t mind - I hope to find the truth

[Courageous Thunder Dash 7,825]

Submersed - Divide the Hate, this is perhaps one of the best secular songs, because it has some ties to Christianity, especailly the bridge. 

 

Father may I be shown
The stallion I have inside
Be shown the way to swallow my pride

I tried
To lie
For the last time

I cannot hide the state
Of my mind
I cannot free what's in me
It's hidden for all time

Mother may I be shown
The right I have to cry
Be shown the strength I have inside

I tried
To lie
For the last time

I cannot hide the state
Of my mind
I cannot free what's in me
It's hidden for all time

Break me
Shape and make me
Give me strength that makes me me

Break me
Shape and make me
Give me strength that makes me me

Break me
Shape and make me
Break me
Shape and make me

I cannot hide the state
Of my mind
I cannot free what's in me
It's hidden for all time
It's hidden for all time

[Seaweed-Headed Dragon 359]

I like Speak Life- Tobymac

 

Some days, life feels perfect.
Other days it just ain't workin.
The good, the bad, the right, the wrong
And everything in between.

Though it's crazy, amazing
We can turn a heart with the words we say.
Mountains crumble with every syllable.
Hope can live or die

So speak Life, speak Life.
To the deadest darkest night.
Speak life, speak Life.
When the sun won't shine and you don't know why.
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted;
Watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope,
You speak love, you speak...
You speak Life, (oh oh oh oh oh oh) You speak Life. (oh oh oh oh oh oh)

Some days the tongue gets twisted;
Other days my thoughts just fall apart.
I do, I don't, I will, I won't,
It's like I'm drowning in the deep.

Well it's crazy to imagine,
Words from our lips as the arms of compassion,
Mountains crumble with every syllable.
Hope can live or die.

So speak Life, speak Life.
To the deadest darkest night.
Speak life, speak Life.
When the sun won't shine and you don't know why.
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted;
Watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope,
You speak love, you speak...
You speak Life, (oh oh oh oh oh oh) You speak Life. (oh oh oh oh oh oh)

Lift your head a little higher,
Spread the love like fire,
Hope will fall like rain,
When you speak life with the words you say.

Raise your thoughts a little higher,
Use your words to inspire,
Joy will fall like rain,
When you speak life with the things you say.

Lift your head a little higher,
Spread the love like fire,
Hope will fall like rain,
When you speak life with the words you say.

So speak Life, speak Life.
To the deadest darkest night.
Speak life, speak Life.
When the sun won't shine and you don't know why.
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted;
Watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope,
You speak love, you speak...
You speak Life, (oh oh oh oh oh oh) You speak Life. (oh oh oh oh oh oh)

You speak Life, (oh oh oh oh oh oh) You speak Life. (oh oh oh oh oh oh)

Some days life feels perfect.

Dream Theater - Octavarium

[I. Someone Like Him]

[Lyrics: John Petrucci]

I never wanted to become someone like him so secure
Content to live each day just like the last
I was sure I knew that
This was not for me
And I wanted so much more
Far beyond what I could see
So I swore that I'd
Never be someone like him

So many years have passed
Since I proclaimed
My independence
My mission
My aim
And my vision
So secure
Content to live each day like it's my last
It's wonderful to know
That I could be
Something more than what I dreamed
Far beyond what I could see
Still I swear that I'm
Missing out this time

As far as I could tell
There's nothing more I need
But still I ask myself
Could this be everything
Then all I swore
That I would never be was now
So suddenly
The only thing
I wanted
To become
To be someone just like him

[II. Medicate (Awakening)]

[Lyrics: James LaBrie]

A Doctor sitting next to me
He asks me how I feel
Not sure I understand his questioning
He says I've been away a while
But thinks he has cured me
From a state of catatonic sleep

For 30 years
Where have I been
Eyes open
But not getting through to me

Medicate me
Infiltrate me
Side effects appear
As my conscience slips away

Medicate me
Science failing
Conscience fading fast
Can't you stop what's happening

A higher dosage he prescribes
But there's no guarantee
I feel it starting to take over me
I tell him not to be ashamed
There's no one who's to blame
A second shot
A brief awakening

I feel the relapse
Can't break free
Eyes open
But not getting through to me

[III. Full Circle]

[Lyrics: Mike Portnoy]

Sailing on the seven seize the day tripper diem's ready
Jack the ripper Owens Wilson Phillips and my supper's ready
Lucy in the sky with diamond Dave's not here I come to save the
Day for nightmare cinema show me the way to get back home again

Running forward
Falling back
Spinning round and round
Looking outward
Reaching in
Scream without a sound

Leaning over
Crawling up
Stumbling all around
Losing my place
Only to find I've come full circle

Flying off the handle be careful with
That axe Eugene gene the dance machine
Messiah light my fire gabba gabba
Hey hey my my generation's home again

Running forward
Falling back
Spinning round and round
Looking outward
Reaching in
Scream without a sound

Leaning over
Crawling up
Stumbling all around
Losing my place
Only to find I've come full circle

[IV. Intervals]

[Lyrics: Mike Portnoy]

[First]
Our deadly sins feel his mortal wrath
Remove all obstacles from our path

[Second]
Asking questions
Search for clues
The answer's been right in front of you

[Third]
Try to break through
Long to connect
Fall on deaf ears and failed muted breath

[Fourth]
Loyalty, trust, faith and desire
Carries love through each darkest fire

[Fifth]
Tortured Insanity
A smothering hell
Try to escape but no avail

[Sixth]
The calls of admirers
Who claim they adore
Drain all your lifeblood while begging for more

[seventh]
Innocent victims of merciless crimes
Fall prey to some madmen's impulsive designs

[Octave]
Step after step
We try controlling our fate
When we finally start living it has become too late

Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium
Trapped inside this Octavarium

[V. Razor's Edge]

[Lyrics: John Petrucci]

We move in circles
Balanced all the while
On a gleaming razor's edge

A perfect sphere
Colliding with our fate
This story ends where it began

You don't have to sit around, complaining 'bout the way your life has wound up!

 

Think of all the time you waste, and time's a precious thing to let go by!

 

Sure you've hit the bottom, but remember you'll be building from the ground up!

 

Every day's another step, that takes you even closer to the sky, so give it a try!

1. Hey Jude, don't make it bad

   Take a sad song and make it better

   Remember to let her into your heart

   Then you can start to make it better

2. Here comes the sun, doo doo doo doo

   Here comes the sun, and I say

   It's alright

3. Blackbird singing in the dead of night

   Take these broken wings and learn to fly

   All your life

   You were only waiting for this moment to arise

4. Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings

   Twisting your mind, smashing your dreams

   Blinded by me, you can't see a thing

   Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream

   Master

   Master

   Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream

   Master

   Master

5. I'm your dream, make you real

   I'm your eyes when you must steal

   I'm your pain when you can't feel

   Sad but true

6. So close no matter how far

   Couldn't be much more from the heart

   Forever trusting who we are

   And nothing else matters

7. Like a bat out of hell

   I'll be gone when the morning comes

   When the night is over

   Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone gone gone

   Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes

   But when the day is done

   And the sun goes down

   And moonlight's shining through

   Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven

   I'll come crawling on back to you

8. I want you (I want you)

   I need you (I need you)

   But-there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you

   Now don't be sad (Don't be sad)

   'Cause two out of three ain't bad

   Now don't be sad (Cause)

   'Cause two out of three ain't bad

9. I was wandering in the rain

   Mask of life, feelin' insane

   Swift and sudden fall from grace

   Sunny days seem far away

   Kremlin's shadow belittlin' me

   Stalin's tomb won't let me be

   On and on and on it came

   Wish the rain would just let me

10. I'm Starting With The Man In

    The Mirror

    I'm Asking Him To Change

    His Ways

    And No Message Could Have

    Been Any Clearer

    If You Wanna Make The World

    A Better Place

    (If You Wanna Make The

    World A Better Place)

    Take A Look At Yourself, And

    Then Make A Change

11. So I stood with a knot in my stomach,

    And I gazed at that terrible sight

    Of two youngsters concealed in a barrel,

    Sucking monkberry moon delight.

12. Band on the run

    Band on the run

    And the jailer man and sailor sam

    Were searching every one

Dream Theater - Finally Free (The ending of Metropolis Pt 2: Scenes From A Memory)

 

 

[Hypnotist:]

You are once again surrounded by a brilliant white light.

Allow the light to lead you away from your past and into this lifetime.

As the light dissipates you will slowly fade back into

consciousness, remembering all you have learned.

When I tell you to open your eyes you will return to the present,

Feeling peaceful and refresh.

Open your eyes Nicholas.

 

[Miracle:]

Friday evening

The blood still on my hands

To think that she would leave me now

For that ungrateful man

Sole survivor

No witness to the crime

I must act fast to cover up

I think that there's still time

He'd seem hopeless and lost with this note

They'll buy into the words that I wrote

"This feeling

Inside me

Finally found my love

I've finally broke free

No longer

Torn in two

I'd take my own life before losing you"

 

[Victoria:]

Feeling good this Friday afternoon

I ran into Julian

Said we'd get together soon

He's always had my heart

He needs to know

I'll break free of the Miracle

It's time for him to go

This feeling

Inside me

Finally found my love

I've finally broke free

No longer

Torn in two

He'd kill his brother if he only knew

Their love renewed

They'd rendezvous

In a pathway out of view

They thought no one knew

Then came a shot out of the night

 

(Sounds of struggling, followed by two gunshots, then screaming)

 

"Open your eyes, Victoria"

 

(Two more gunshots fired)

[Sleeper:]

One last time

We'll lay down today

One last time

Until we fade away

One last time

We'll lay down today

One last time

We fade away

As their bodies lie still

And the ending draws near

Spirits rise through the air

All their fears disappear

It all becomes clear

A blinding light comes into view

An old soul exchanged for a new

Familiar voice comes shining through

 

[Nicholas:]

This feeling

Inside me

Finally found my life

I'm finally free

No longer

Torn in two

I learned about my life by living through you

This feeling

Inside me

Finally found my life

I've finally broke free

No longer

Torn in two

Living my own life by learning from you

We'll meet again my friend

Someday soon

 

 

 

Also, I completely forgot about this gem...

 

Megadeth - Trust

 

 

Lost in a dream

Nothing is what it seems

Searching my head

For the words that you said

 

Tears filled my eyes

As we said our last goodbyes

This sad scene replays

Of you walking away

 

My body aches from mistakes

Betrayed by lust

We lied to each other so much

That in nothing we trust

 

Time and again,

She repeats let's be friends

I smile and say yes

Another truth bends,

I must confess

 

I try to let go, but I know

We'll never end 'til we're dust

We lied to each other again

But I wish I could trust

 

My body aches from mistakes

Betrayed by lust

We lied to each other so much

That in nothing we trust

 

God help me please, on my knees

Betrayed by lust

We lied to each other so much

That in nothing we trust

 

How could this be happening to me

I'm lying when I say "Trust me"

I can't believe this is true

Trust hurts

Why does trust equal suffering

 

Absolutely nothing we trust

These lyrics are hilariously dirty. >.>

Edguy - Lavatory Love Machine

Oh if only Brazil was not so far
Far away I would swim or walk or ride
But never ever fly
But all the noise of the maniacs there
The seat on my face it's worth to bear
But I don't wanna bounce and die

But then I see a lady in a tight blue dress
I close my eyes, I know what I would go for
Stewardess before the crash

Lavatory love machine
No fear can quell my steam
Lavatory live machine
No cabin fire burn my dream

I'm at you disposal
I gotta get up to see what you ain't gotta hide
Wheeling junk along the aisle
Keep your seat belt fastened
You're whipping with an iron voice
You command
Uh mistress I am in your hands

And when she asks me what I'd like to eat
I realise the domina feels the same
And I reply... What about your pie?

Lavatory love machine
No fear can quell my steam
Lavatory live machine
No cabin fire burn my dream

Lavatory love machine
No broken wings to stop me stream
Lavatory love machine
Honey do you like the way I cream?!

Now if I gotta die
I'll have been stiff and smiling till the crash
Let them know I've been alive
Till I made my final splash

Lavatory love machine
No fear can quell my steam
Lavatory live machine
No cabin fire burn my dream

Don't hear those scary noises
From the turbine when you scream

 

[Away 2,077]

NYC by Interpol

I had seven faces
Thought I knew which one to wear
I'm sick of spending these lonely nights
Training myself not to care
The subway is a porno
The pavements they are a mess
I know you've supported me for a long time
Somehow I'm not impressed

But New York cares
(Got to be some more change in my life)
New York cares
(Got to be some more change in my life)
New York cares
(Got to be some more change in my life)
New York cares
(Got to be some more change in my life)

The subway she is a porno
The pavements they are a mess
I know you've supported me for a long time
Somehow I'm not impressed

It's up to me now
Turn on the bright lights
Oh It's up to me now
Turn on the bright lights

New York cares
(Got to be some more change in my life)
(It's up to me now, turn on the bright lights)

 

Those first four lines. It just really reminds me of how I am sometimes.

 

It's so sad yet comforting. I love it.

apologize by one republic

 

[Verse 1]
I'm holdin' on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground.
And I'm hearin' what you say,
But I just can't make a sound.
You tell me that you need me,
Then you go and cut me down...
But wait...
You tell me that you're sorry,
Didn't think I'd turn around
And say...

[Chorus]
That it's too late to apologize.
It's too late...
I said it's too late to apologize.
It's too late, too late, oh, oh.

[Verse 2]
I'd take another chance,
Take a fall, take a shot for you, oh, oh.
I need you like a heart needs a beat,
But it's nothin' new, yeah!
I loved you with a fire red,
Now it's turnin' blue
And you say...
Sorry, like an angel
Heaven let me think was you
But I'm afraid...

[Chorus]
It's too late to apologize.
It's too late.
I said it's too late to apologize.
It's too late, whoa!

[interlude]

[Chorus]
It's too late to apologize.
It's too late.
I said it's too late to apologize.
It's too late.

I said it's too late to apologize, yeah (too late)!
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah (too late)!

I'm holdin' on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground

[Twilight The Creator 298]

Uh, summa-lumma, dooma-lumma, you assuming I'm a human
What I gotta do to get it through to you? I'm superhuman
Innovative and I'm made of rubber
So that anything you say is ricocheting off of me and it'll glue to you
And I'm devastating, more than ever demonstrating
How to give a motha******' audience a feeling like it's levitating
Never fading, and I know the haters are forever waiting
For the day that they can say I fell off, they'll be celebrating
Cause I know the way to get 'em motivated
Eminem, from Rap God. Just because of the speed of it. It's exhilarating.
 
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already: mom's spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs but he keeps on forgetting
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth but the words won't come out
He's choking, how
Everybody's joking now
The clock's run out, time's up, over - blaow

I've got a load of favorite songs, but I'll just drop this one, for this is one of them,

 

Through the Fire by Larry Greene (TOP GUN: Soundtrack)

 

I will take it to the wire now
Until every race is run
I'll go straight into the fire now
Until every day is done
Voices say -- break away
Live each night as if each moment
Was the only one

Through the fire
To the wire
When the night out of control
Is breaking your heart
Through the fire
To the wire
When the flames are burning hot
They take you higher
Through the fire

There's a feeling that I can't ignore
Like a stranger at my door
So revealing that I cannot hide
When you settle up the score
Voices say -- night and day
Live your life as if each second
Was the final one

Through the fire
To the wire
When the night out of control
Is breaking your heart
Through the fire
To the wire
When the flames are burning hot
They take you higher

I look for signs that you are here tonight
When the passion calls the pleasure to the flame
Then I ask you of the meaning when you talk of love
Would you take the leap of faith?
Would you throw it all away?

Through the fire
To the wire
When the night out of control
Is breaking your heart
Through the fire
To the wire
When the flames are burning hot
They take you higher

Geblendet, verhungert und verendet

Die beste Zeit verschwendet

An eine Schlampe wie dich

Du bist ein Miststueck!

 

That is:

 

Blinded, starved, and killed

The best time wasted

On a bitch like you

You're a (yes, seriously) piece of horseshit!

So beautifully sad. =')

Dream Theater - Beneath The Surface

Is there ever really a right time
You had led me to believe
Someday you'd be there for me

When the stars above aligned
When you weren't so consumed
I kept looking for the clues

So I waited in the shadows of my heart
And still the time was never right

Until one day I stopped caring
And began to forget why I longed to be so close
And I disappeared into the darkness
And the darkness turned to pain
And never went away
Until all that remained
Was buried deep beneath the surface

A shell of what things could have been

Tired bones beneath a veil
Of guarded secrets all too frail
Sad to think I never knew
You were searching for the words
For the moment to emerge

Yet the moment never came
You couldn't risk my fragile frame

Until one day you stopped caring
And began to forget why you tried to be so close
And you disappeared into the darkness
And the darkness turned to pain
And never went away
Until all that remained
Was buried deep beneath the surface

I would scream just to be heard
As if yelling at the stars
I was bleeding just to feel

You would never say a word
Kept me reaching in the dark
Always something to conceal

Until one day I stopped caring
And began to forget why I longed to be so close
And I disappeared into the darkness
And the darkness turned to pain
And never went away
Until all that remained
Was buried deep beneath the surface
