Lyrics:

A shadow in the night can be a demon with the power of God Before you will survive you must be aware about a thing and what you see. It's in the air right now I am the risen I`m the chosen one to see This bloody war is here to stay. Now he cast down the pieces of silver and gold in the temple light. Betrayyourself and die this is a war without a soul and without tears Can you be strong enough to see the fire you believe in every day. My enemy is here to bring the spirit or no reason back to hell Your sacrifice will be the way. I make confession without words praying in the night for the seventh sign. When the savior s diving in the night Soldiers gathered screaming out your name Powers from the glory shiny grace Masters using pieses of my mind. If you believe in this you might imagine they are putting this together I will be there to see the cradle fading in the night not far away. It's in the air right now I am the risen I`m the chosen one to see This bloody war is here to stay. Now he cast down the pieces of silver and gold in the temple light. When the savior s diving in the night Soldiers gathered screaming out your name Powers from the glory shiny grace Masters using pieses of my mind.

Lyrics:

A giant bright eagle has come On me and taken away my universe I find myself in trouble now I put my soul in irresponsible hands Exhausted I no longer try to reveal myself And I no longer want to free my soul But I must not forget all what I did for us This way I feel myself irreplaceable You had finally come to death And you will never come to life again Burn ego's black reality Bring on the light I want to see your face I feel the end is near for me my world goodbye People of the dead, I join you In this confusion I don't even recall my name There is something inside I want to reveal I feel like I'm a part of this And this a part of me I know one must have confidence I will overcome From now on I'm "this", and not "me" I feel like I'm rising from the dead From up here I see my inner world is dying I'll overcome my pain

Lyrics:

I reserve myself the right to protect, I from intenions around, I see a thousand faces In no one but myself I trust I don't get love or care from this world of pain Made my skin turn to stone Bending under this load, I fall, and my skin is... My fall accelerates with the weight Soon I'll be underworld Surving radiations, not for long, and I'm burning Raging storm deep inside, Unsuspected misery Someone has betrayed my trust Attempted suicide My nerves tensed, hardened my skin becomes But I give my horse its head, I'll overcome Come, meet, under my lizard skin I research the way to cleave through the air My attention span is too short My envelope is too tight now and my skin is...

Album: Of Doom And Death Genre: Power Metal

Country: Germany

Lyrics:

(Source) (Corrections made by Desideratum-Music)

On my journey into the unknown, sometimes I wish that one of these doors would lead me back.

(Back to you)

Back to the time.

(Back to the time When you were mine) When I close my eyes, I can recall your face.

(How you used to move me)

In grace.

I couldn't stay, something was calling from far away. 

(Far away)

I had to embark, onto my journey, Into the dark. Love of my life, I had to go. Leave you alone, out in the cold. It's breaking me down.

(Breaking me down)

It tears me apart.

(Tears me apart)

It's breaking my heart to leave you like this.

I have treasured the secrets we used to share.

(We used to share)

When every caress made me shiver, you took my breath away.

(Breath away)

And to see you die.

(See you die)

Still makes my cry.

(Cry in pain) Oh, Susan forgive me. My bitter sacrifice. As you died in the flames my heart was turning to ice. I couldn't stay, something was calling from far away.

(Far away)

I had to embark, onto my journey, into the dark.

Love of my life, I had to go. Leave you alone, out in the cold. It's breaking me down.

(Breaking me down)

It tears me apart

(Tears me apart)

It's breaking my heart, to leave you like this. Without a kiss. Here I stand at the end of the world. On my endless quest. Oh, how I wish to rest for a while. Well I couldn't stay, something was calling from far away.

(Far away)

I had to embark, onto the tower, into the dark.

Love of my life, I had to go. Leave you alone, out in the cold. It's breaking me down. It tears me apart. And with a broken heart, I have to leave you like this.

Without, without a kiss.

Lyrics:

In the woods the elves are calling Wonderland, when night is falling down Down on me Bringing on the wildest dreams The fairy tales and magic things Oh, dreamland, it's calling my name Oh, I will be there When I'm closing my eyes I see the miracles waiting for me In the mists of illusion I'll be hidden and sheltered from all Till the morning breaks [Chorus:] Let my dive into my fantasies Far beyond my reality Let me dwell inside the land of dreams Far beyond reality On the journey, a traveller in a world beyond Reaching for the highest mountain The deepest valley Majestic plains and endless oceans Pleasing me, enchanting me Bewitching me and enlightening me Destination: The great unknown Here inside my very soul When I'm closing my eyes I see the miracles waiting for me In the mists of illusion I'll be hidden and sheltered from all Till the morning breaks

Song: Desert Island Questionnaire 

Album: Upside Down Mountain Genre: Indie/Folk Rock

Country: USA

Lyrics:

Say that you were stranded on a desert island What books you gonna bring what friends would tag along Say you had a month and you knew you were dying How would you spend your time What goodbyes would take too long You don't like this game and you take exception Who wants all this trouble even hypothetical With the charging sky above And the ground below that could swallow everyone Staring at your phone at another party Spend a lot on clothes got a lot of skin to show People in the pool like the drowning army Smoke along the moats and the hotel lobby glows Wish that you can dance but you've got no partner Keep tapping on your glass because you want to make a toast To the ennui of our times To the selfishness in everyone you know Made a lot of friends but they can't be trusted Don't know what their angle is Post up at the bar and I'm double fisting Talking to a mannequin I don't know what it means when he takes my pulse And says that I'm a lot like him I say that's fair enough that's why I'm trying to loosen up Every lunatic must be well intentioned Sets himself apart he's an instrument of God Took her from the playground to the farmhouse cellar Kissed her while he killed her like a good Samaritan They finally found her body many Autumns after Interviewed her mother who said "she'd now be 21 And although we lost her young I know the good lord has a plan for all of us" Mormons at the door they look clean and handsome Always have a good sales pitch Your little sister swears she can paint my aura But I can't take her serious Need something to blame For this human nature, is that what this condition is? I'm so bored with my life but I'm still afraid to die Everyone's asleep in this burning building And I can't wake them up in time You go on ahead I'll be right behind you We're headed to the finish line I can't get closer until this is over Pretend that you were stranded on a desert island What would be the message that you'd spell out for the plane Say the engine failed when that plane was flying If you were the pilot would you curse or would you pray No one's gonna cry at this John Doe funeral Not a lot to say didn't even have a name Light a candle just in case he was someone's friend Throw some flowers on the grave

Song: In memoriam Album: The Mountain Genre: Progressive Metal

Country: U.K

Lyrics:

Take a step put one foot in the grave Catch a breath submerged in holy water Watch a moving scene of former days Shed a tear as memory starts to falter Familiar faces try to hide the pain Medicate to alleviate the pressure Make amends with the ones I used to hate Feel the agony give way to pleasure [Chorus] Tearing down the walls of eternity All in my loving memory Final scene humility I succumb to universal law Another system's energy disperses Mother nature red in tooth and claw It's the game that everybody loses Show your cards and accept What you've been dealt Guardian or harbringer of sorrow? Pour a drink, raise a glass And toast to health Is the truth too hard for us to swallow? [Chorus] Tearing down the walls of eternity All in my loving memory Master of creation Lead us from temptation Father of invention Please guild my ascension So much left unspoken Life leaving heartbroken A sense of acceptance One final repentance Read these words upon my stone In piam memoriam [Chorus] Tearing down the walls of eternity All in my loving memory

Open the door, I'm here to drink ! Give me blood and rum bitch I'll make you dance on my tower till the morning comes ! In a sexual fever of debauchery I wanna drink more... Who wants to fuck with me now ? Fire on skin Fever of sin Move like a flame On damballa's ground... Fill this glass, light up that cigarette Move your body, dance as I get drunk ! I wanna drink more and erase the pain I need to forget my life and fly away without regrets When I look at your body... Fire on skin Fever of sin Move like a flame On damballa's ground Beautiful slut, jump the fuck up Let me frighten you, get me another round ! On the path to addiction Write your name with the rain Be my friend, be like me Fire on skin Fever on skin Move like a flame On damballa's ground
