Nightwish - Wanderlust

I want to see where the sirens sing
Hear how the wolves howl
Sail the dead calm waters of the Pacific

Dance in the fields of coral
Be blinded by the white
Discover the deepest jungle

I want to find The Secret Path
A bird delivered into my heart, so

It’s not the end
Not the kingdom come
It is the journey that matters, the distant wanderer
Call of the wild
In me forever and ever and ever forever
Wanderlust

I want to love by the Blue Lagoon
Kiss under the waning moon
Straying, claiming my place in this mortal coil

Riding the dolphins
Asking the mountains
Dreaming Alaska
The Earth can have but Earth

I want to find…

It’s not the end…

Drown into my eyes and see the wanderer
See the mirrors of a wolf behold the pathfinde

The Red And The Black - Iron Maiden

The morals of life and the perils of death
Take the wrong way out, running out of breath
Meet my match in the afterlife
Suppress the demons that plague the night

A tortured mind is a safe place to go
But the truth lurks down in the dark below
Step inside my inquisitive mind
Are you scared at what you just might find?

See myself in the hall of mirrors
A different shape every step I take
A different mind every step of the line
But in the end they are all mine

Laughing sorrow inside your head
Can't get out, just a feeling of dread
I know this burden is a heavy load
A dark mistake, never ending road

The black jack king and the red queen clash
The artful dodger, he counts his stash
The joker's wild like an impish child
While Madame Fortune see what's inside

The good luck charm is overkill
The tired old soldier says fire at will
Planes overhead go search and destroy
The ones below human decoy

I need somebody to save me

Meanwhile we play the waiting game
The clock is struck, the horse is lame
And when we think that this is done
Chance your luck a four leafed one

You hedge your bets, the battle lost
To wait in vain and count the cost
The thin edged line
Between good and bad
And cast the luck, be happy and sad

I need somebody to save me

The red and the black
People don't want the truth
Look in their eyes and you send them away

The red and the black
Fate and hypocrisy
Burden's a heavy load there is no doubt

The red and the black
All out of luck again
How many chances can anyone have?

The red and the black
Treachery out to win
There in the wrong place and at the wrong time

I need somebody to save me

Nightwish -- The Greatest Show On Earth

1.) Four Point Six

Archaean horizon
The first sunrise
On a pristine Gaea
Opus perfectum
Somewhere there, us sleeping

2.) Life

The cosmic law of gravity
Pulled the newborns around a fire
A careless, cold infinity in every vast direction
Lonely farer in the Goldilocks zone
She has a tale to tell
From the stellar nursery into a carbon feast
Enter LUCA

The tapestry of chemistry
There’s a writing in the garden
Leading us to the Mother of all

We are one
We are a universe
Forbears of what will be
Scions of the Devonian sea
Aeons pass
Writing the tale of us all
A day-to-day new opening
For the greatest show on Earth

Ion channels welcoming the outside world
To the stuff of stars
Bedding the tree of a biological holy
Enter life

We are here to care for the garden
The wonder of birth
Of every form most beautiful

3.) The Toolmaker

After a billion years
The show is still here
Not a single one of your fathers died young
The handy travelers
Out of Africa
Little Lucy of the Afar

Gave birth to fantasy
To idolatry
To self-destructive weaponry
Enter the god of gaps
Deep within the past
Atavistic dread of the hunted

Enter Ionia, the cradle of thought
The architecture of understanding
The human lust to feel so exceptional
To rule the Earth

Hunger for shiny rocks
For giant mushroom clouds
The will to do just as you’d be done by
Enter history, the grand finale
Enter Ratkind

Man, he took his time in the sun
Had a dream to understand
A single grain of sand
He gave birth to poetry
But one day’ll cease to be
Greet the last light of the library

We were here!
We were here!
We were here!
We were here!

Trying To Catch Up With The World - Saint Asonia

Sam, the weak accomplice
He knew he had a choice
He always startled easily
With the sound of every voice
A pocket full of excess
They take and take and take
He left him with a trigger pointed
Staring at his shakes

And it goes on
It goes on

She was given nothing
But their selfish lack
They sleep with one eye open
'Cause they know she's coming back
But she will wait her turn
Absent from concern
The furnace inside her
It burns and burns and burns

And it goes on, on
It goes on

Weaklings never practice
What they preach
They cower down below
That's what you call defeat
And in their darkest hour
It's hard to breathe
We try to catch up with the world
But we're so far out of reach
We're so far out of reach

Leaning in the dark
Stands this faked man
Slicing her with his words
Always grabbing her with his hands

And it goes on, on
It goes on

Weaklings never practice
What they preach
They cower down below
That's what you call defeat
And in their darkest hour
It's hard to breathe
We try to catch up with the world
But we're so far out of reach

I wish I had've warned you
Of this broken path
With each step you take
You know there's no turning back

Weaklings never practice
What they preach
They cower down below
That's what you call defeat
And in their darkest hour
It's hard to breathe
We try to catch up with the world
But we're so far out of reach

We try to catch up with the world
We try to catch up with the world
We try to catch up with the world
But we're so far out of reach

We try to catch up with the world
We try to catch up with the world
We try to catch up with the world
But we're so far out of reach

Battle Beast -- Neuromancer

Knowledge is burning, computers are learning
The wonders of nature recede
Augmenting bodies with high-tech solutions
Man is a ravenous beast married to the dark

Neuromancer
I am the land of the dead
Neurmancer
I am the land of the...

Life's hanging low as your body and soul,
Wallow in a land of decay
Smother your conscience, the future is bleak
Forbidden is the love that you seek
Welcome to the real world

I am Neuromancer
I am Neuromancer
I am the land of the dead
I am Neuromancer
I'm the land of the dead

Forever Neuromancer, forever, forever
Tell me now what's the answer, n-n-n-Neuromancer
Come to me Neuromancer, come to me, come to me
Tell me now all the answers,
Neuromancer, Romancer

I am the land of the dead
Neuromancer
I am the land of the dead
Neuromancer
I am the land of the...dead

Forever Neuromancer, forever, forever
Tell me now what's the answer, n-n-n-Neuromancer
Come to me Neuromancer, come to me, come to me
Tell me now all the answers,
Neuromancer, forever, forever

Sabaton - Panzerkampf

Into the motherland the german army march

In the soviet union summer 1943
Tanks line up in thousands as far the eye can see
Ready for the onslaught ready for the fight
Waiting for the axis to march into the trap
Mines are placed in darkness in the cover of the night
Waiting to be triggered when the time is right
Imminent invasion imminent attack
Once the battle started there's no turning back

The end of the 3rd reich draws near
It's time has come to an end
The end of an era is here
It's time to attack

Into the motherland the german army march
Comrades stand side by side to stop the nazi charge
Panzers on russian soil a thunder in the east
One million men at war the soviet wrath unleashed

Fields of Prokorovka where heat of battle burned
Suffered heavy losses and the tide of war was turned
Driving back the germans fighting on 4 fronts
Hunt them out of russia out of soviet land
Reinforce the frontline force the axis to retreat
Send in all the reserves securing their defeat
Soldiers of the union broke the citadel
Ruins of an army axis rest in hell

Oh mother russia union of lands
Will of the people strong in command
Oh mother russia union of lands
Once more victorious the red army stands

We've tried so hard to understand, but we can't.
We held the world out in our hands and you ran away.

It takes some time to let you go and it shows.

Cause all we know is falling, it falls.
Remember, cause I know that we won't forget at all.

Now we can follow you back home but we won't.
Is this what you had waited for? Just to be alone?

It takes some time to let you go and it shows.

Cause all we know is falling, it falls.
Remember, cause I know that we won't forget at all.

You never, you never said
This wasn't what you wanted, was it? Was it?

This isn't what you wanted.
This isn't what you wanted.

Cause all we know is falling, it falls.
Remember, cause I know that we won't forget at all.

Whitesnake - Still Of The Night

In the still of the night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the still of the night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more

In the shadow of night
I see the full moon rise
Telling me what's in store
My heart start aching
My body start a shaking
And I can't take no more, no, no

Now I just want to get close to you
An' taste your love so sweet
And I just want to make love to you
Feel your body heat

In the still of the night
In the still of the night
Over here baby

In the heat of the day
I hang my head down low
And hide my face from the sun
Through the light of the day
Until the evening time
I'm waiting for the night to come
Ooh, baby

In the still of the night
In the cool moonlight
I feel my heart is aching
In the still of the night

Ooh, baby, Ooh, baby
Can't keep away
Need you closer
Can't keep away, can't keep away, can't keep away
Oh, can't keep away, no

You gotta give me love
You gotta give me some lovin' everyday
Can't keep away, no

Ooh, baby, ooh Lord, ahh
Get over here, baby

In the still of the night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the still of the night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more

Now I just wanna get close to you
An' taste your love so sweet
And I just wanna make love to you
Feel your body heat

In the still of the night, ooh yeah
In the still of the night, I will be sneakin' 'round your door
In the still of the night

Guns N' Roses - Civil War

"What we've got here is failure to communicate.
Some men you just can't reach...
So, you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it!
Well, he gets it!
N' I don't like it any more than you men." *

Look at your young men fighting
Look at your women crying
Look at your young men dying
The way they've always done before

Look at the hate we're breeding
Look at the fear we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading
The way we've always done before

My hands are tied
The billions shift from side to side
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of God and our human rights
And all these things are swept aside
By bloody hands time can't deny
And are washed away by your genocide
And history hides the lies of our civil wars

You wear a black armband
When they shot the man
Who said, "Peace could last forever."
And in my first memories
They shot Kennedy
I went numb when I learned to see
So I never fell for Vietnam
We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all
That you can't trust freedom
When it's not in your hands
When everybody's fightin'
For the promised land

And
I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war

Look at the shoes you're filling
Look at the blood we're spilling
Look at the world we're killing
The way we've always done before
Look in the doubt we've wallowed
Look at the leaders we've followed
Look at the lies we've swallowed
And I don't want to hear no more

My hands are tied
For all I've seen has changed my mind
Still the wars go on as the years go by
With no love of God or human rights
'Cause all these dreams are swept aside
By bloody hands of the hypnotized
Who carry the cross of homicide
And history bears the scars of our civil wars

"WE PRACTICE SELECTIVE ANNIHILATION OF MAYORS AND GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS
FOR EXAMPLE TO CREATE A VACUUM
THEN WE FILL THAT VACUUM
AS POPULAR WAR ADVANCES
PEACE IS CLOSER" **

I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
And I don't need your civil war
I don't need your civil war
I don't need your civil war
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war
I don't need one more war

I don't need one more war
What's so civil 'bout war anyway?


(GOD this song is so powerful!)

Alestorm - Wolves Of The Sea

With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey!
We're hoisting the flag to be free
We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go
We are wolves of the sea

Don't try to run, it's all said and done
There's a treasure in sight
We are robbing you blind I hope you don't mind
We are taking it all tonight

Just walk away we will conquer it all
Pirates will stand and the loser will fall

With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey
We're bound to be close to the sea
Our captain will stand on the bridge and sing
Pirates are all we can be

With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey!
We're hoisting the flag to be free
We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go
We are wolves of the sea

Down to the core we're coming for more
With a sword close at hand
We are scary and bold, with a chest full of gold
We get sea legs when sighting land

The hook of our captain is looking at you
There's no Peter Pan so what can you do

With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey
We're bound to be close to the sea
Our captain will stand on the bridge and sing
Pirates are all we can be

With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey!
We're hoisting the flag to be free
We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go
We are wolves of the sea

With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey
We're bound to be close to the sea
Our captain will stand on the bridge and sing
Pirates are all we can be

With a hi hi ho and a hi hi hey!
We're hoisting the flag to be free
We will steal the show, Jolly Rogers go
We are wolves of the sea

The Duke - Lamb of God

No one lives forever but you can't escape from life
Every day could be your last so consider your demise
Mine has drawn so near
Stare into the eyes of the end
Reaping now without fear
The time that's left to spend

The time that's left to spend
The time that's left to

Look up in the night, see it ride across the sky
Hanging there above, far away but so nearby
I am the smoke on the wind burning in your eyes
Cast aside an empty shell, but I will never die

This world has grown too small, I can't stay much longer
My body begins to fail as my spirit grows stronger
It's time for me to go
The circle closed as the snake eats its tail
Lay my burden down
Walking free beyond the veil

The time that's left to spend
The time that's left to

Look up in the night, see it ride across the sky
Hanging there above, far away but so nearby
I am the smoke on the wind burning in your eyes
Cast aside an empty shell, but I will never die

I will never die!
I will never die!
I will never die!

[Solo: Morton]

Look up in the night, see it ride across the sky
Hanging there above, far away but so nearby
I am the smoke on the wind burning in your eyes
Cast aside an empty shell, but I will never die

I will never die!
Never die!
I will never die!

Sonata Arctica -- Till Death's Done Us Apart

You made me smile, dear
Now I never do when I'm alone
Pulling on a thread of life
Just to see what unravels this time
My love's a clone…

Once upon a time there was a boy who wrote a fairytale
Ding, dong, ding, dong
Where everything would go wrong
And one day then…

He found a girl he fell in love with
Who thought forever is only a myth
They lived the fairytale, prophecy
And since slowly grew apart, but…

One, two, three, one, two, three
She was dancing on their wedding day
Hiding deep the secret in her heart…
Till death do us apart

There's no sign of the love I found
In your heart, no more, no love, no wonder
You have tried to evade my touch
It is plain to see we're done, my weakness

When snow falls on the ruins once more
You're still acting like a madonna
That you are not
I can hurt you now…
I know the pain, you're already crushing me
By kissing me now…

You never should have loved me
'Cause maybe my heart is made of stone
But still I wonder…
If our once forever is done
Then, leave me

In the light of the restless night
You fell asleep with the wound, forgot to bleed
For me, won't you bleed for me
For the love, one drop, not more, my weakness

Snow must fall on the ruins once more
If you wish to see it end, you'll have to
Paint your lips with the blood-red tar of my broken heart
Blood-red tar of a broken heart
The taste wears off, leaves a tainted scar…

I am nailed down on the wheel of torment
Spin me again, celebrate ends advent
Beautifully rust, my pain of sadness
Following your bread crumb trail to my madness

The darkest acres of human hearts are
Lit by the cinders of lost perfection
Once in a life time love, affection
Withering tree, most violent passion…

Once upon a time there was a man who lived his
Fairytale
Ding, dong, ding, dong
And everything did go wrong
And one day then…

He lost the girl he fell in love with
She proved forever is only a myth
They lived the fairytale, prophecy
And were slowly torn apart

He is nailed down on the wheel of torment
Spin him again, celebrate ends advent
Beautifully rusting pain of sadness
Following her bread crumb trail to his madness

The darkest acres of human hearts are
Lit by the cinders of lost perfection
Once in a life time love, affection
Withering tree, the most violent passion…

You made him smile, dear
Now he never does, 'cause he's alone
Hanging on a thread of life
Just to see what'll save him now
He wonders

You were like a siren
Living on the island of his love
A drought in the chalice of life, so bitter
He knew it would kill him one day

Once upon a time there was a boy who wrote a fairytale
Ding, dong, ding, dong
Where everything would go wrong

Seems that he has found you now, so break the seal
And read the card
Ding, dong, ding, dong
“Until death has done us apart.“

Stratovarius - Unbreakable

Worthless without time
we follow how it flies by
we still keep believing in white and comforting lies

When it's our turn
together we stay stronger
we lay still and silent and watch
how our world burns for eternity

You carry me away
'til morrow we're unbreakable
I hold my breath and wait
this moment is unbreakable
I can feel it deep within my heart and my soul
you make me whole
I want to live this second forever
always together forevermore
I hold my breath and wait

Worthless without life
we see how years keep flying by
I never really cared until I opened my eyes

The final day awaits
and the firestorm's getting closer
under falling stars we will seal our fate
for eternity

You carry me away...

I hold my breath and wait 'til the end
until 'morrow we're unbreakable

You carry me away...

We are stronger than ever
always together forevermore

I hold my breath and wait 'til the end
until 'morrow we're unbreakable
