The Bard's Song - Blind Guardian

Now You all know The bards and their songs When hours have gone by I'll close my eyes In a world far away We may meet again But now hear my song About the dawn of the night Let's sing the bards' song [Ref.:] Tomorrow will take us away Far from home No one will ever know our names But the bards' songs will remain Tomorrow will take it away The fear of today It will be gone Due to our magic songs There's only one song Left in my mind Tales of a brave man Who lived far from here Now the bard songs are over And it's time to leave No one should ask You for the name Of the one Who tells the story [Ref.:] Tomorrow will take us away Far from home No one will ever know our names But the bards' songs will remain Tomorrow all will be known And You're not alone So don't be afraid In the dark and cold 'Cause the bards' songs will remain They all will remain In my thoughts and in my dreams They're always in m

Watching Over Me - Iced Earth

I had a friend many years ago One tragic night he died The saddest time of my life For weeks and weeks I cried Through the anger and through the tears I've felt his spirit through the years I'd swear, He's watching me Guiding me through hard times I feel it once again It's overwhelming me His spirit's like the winds The angel guarding me Oh, I know, oh, I know He's watching over me Oh, I know, oh, I know He's watching over me We shared dreams like all best friends Blood brothers at the age of ten We lived reckless, he paid the price But why? Why did he have to die? It still hurts me to this day Am I selfish for feeling this way? I know he's an angel now Together we'll be someday I feel it once again It's overwhelming me His spirit's like the wind The angel guarding me Oh, I know, oh, I know He's watching over me Oh, I know, oh, I know He's watching over me

Hollow Years - Dream Theater

He's just the kind of man You hear about Who leaves his family For an easy out They never saw the signs He never said a word He couldn't take another day Carry me to the shoreline Bury me in the sand Walk me across the water And maybe you'll understand Once the stone You're crawling under Is lifted off your shoulders Once the cloud that's raining Over you head disappears The noise that you'll hear Is the crashing down of hollow years She's not the kind of girl You hear about She'll never want another She'll never be without She'll give you all the signs She'll tell you everything Then turn around and walk away Carry me to the shoreline Bury me in the sand Walk me across the water And maybe you'll understand Once the stone You're crawling under Is lifted off your shoulders Once the cloud that's raining Over you head disappears The noise that you'll hear Is the crashing down of hollow ye

Conquistadores - Running Wild

Exploring the seas to conquer new lands Troops arrayed by the church Sanctified and blessed they set out Crusaders, gentiles' scourge They fight, they kill, they rape Under the banner of the 'holy' church They hunt, they lie, they cheat, they steal Doing dirty deeds under churchbell's peal Conquistadores - Hungry for gold, doing as the religious madman told Conquistadores - Religion's knight, havoc and death caused by pride Pearls of glass for ingets of gold Violence, force and deceit Taking the wealth or the Indian's life Their way of feeding their greed Heathen must turn to Christianity It's like 'believe or die' Arrogance and blindness, religion's force Believers never ask the reason why

Space and Time - The Verve

There ain't no space and time To keep our love alive We have existence and it's all we share There ain't no real truth There ain't no real lies Keep on pushin' 'cause I know it's there Oh, can you just tell me It's all right (It's all right) Let me sleep tonight Oh, can you comfort me Tonight (It's all right) Make it all seem fine I just can't make it alone Oh, no, no I just can't make it alone Oh, no, no There'll be no lullabies There'll be no tears cried We feel numb 'cause we don't see That if we really care And we really loved Think of all the joy we'd feel Oh, can you just tell me It's all right (It's all right) Let me sleep tonight Oh, can you comfort me Tonight (It's all right) Make it all seem fine I just can't make it alone Oh, no, no I just can't make it alone Oh, no, no I just can't make it alone Oh, no, no I just can't make it alone Oh,

A Gothic Love Song - Current 93

I'm clicking your fingers for a gothic twilight That actually existed just in your head Your fingernails painted black Or bloodred I forget And your fake-leather volumes Jabbering on hell Manifest decadence was what you hoped to exhail Your eyes tried so hard to glitter A star-snuffing black So you opened your books And you opened your legs And so opened your heart And let in the badness You claimed As your friend With un-angels hovering Like flies round the orchard That had covered your soul Their empire increasing And your country Deserted by yourself The bells of St. Mary call us to remember That life is with end And the gestures can kill us Moreover destroy And there is one judgment only Your letters came daily In French or in German But they meant to me nothing I caught the slow cords And dry ice fogging your mind I see all too clearly now Why you could be discarded And though I could pray for you I probably shan't Having had my c
