Eros's blog: "Favourite Songs/ Poignant Lyrics"

The willow it weeps today A breeze from the distance is calling your name Unfurl your black wings and wait Across the horizon it's coming to sweep you away It's coming to sweep you away [Chorus:] Let the wind carry you home Blackbird fly away May you never be broken again The fragile cannot endure The wrecked and the jaded a place so impure The static of this cruel world Cause some birds to fly long before they've seen their day Long before they've seen their day [Chorus:] Let the wind carry you home Blackbird fly away May you never be broken again Beyond the suffering you've known I hope you find your way May you never be broken again Ascend may you find no resistance Know that you made such a difference All you leave behind will live to the end The cycle of suffering goes on But memories of you stay strong Someday I too will fly and find you again [Chorus:] Let the wind carry you home Blackbird fly away May you never be broken again Beyond the suffering you've known I hope you find your way May you never be broken again May you never be broken again....

[Music : Schaffer / Lyrics : Schaffer] The howling winds blow On this moonlit night Eyes locked in fear With a dark embrace The bitter cold winds Freeze the tears that fall Hands held in grace As we take the final step Obsessed with our love Here is our fate To need the final call On this special winter day A message to our elders They surely won't forget Our love must last forever In death we shall not part It seems like only yesterday Our lives together planned They say it's just a passing phase We're damned by our youth Why does no one understand What we have is real This is not your average love it's forever Last December Mother you have forced us here Last December Father now we'll disappear Last December One last step we fade away So we take the final step Heed the final call Together we are strong Divided we must fall Teenage suicide Our only way out Together we might live Divided we must fall Last December Mother you have forced us here Last December Father now we'll disappear Last December One last step we fade away

 

 

Hello don't you know me
I'm the dirt beneath your feet
The most important fool you forgot to see
I've seen how you give it
Now I want to receive
I know that you
Would do the same for me

I'm know I'm headed for the bottom
But I'm riding you all the way

For all of your kisses turned
To spit in my face
For all that reminds me
Which is my place
For all of the times when
You made me disappear
This time I'm sure you will
Know that I'm here

I'm know I'm headed for the bottom
But I'm riding you all the way

My place was beneath you
But now I'm above
And now I send you a message
Of love
A simple remind of what
You won't see
A future so holy without me

I'm know I'm headed for the bottom
But I'm riding you all the way 

 

Through the dreaming lights
Into darkness of nightmares
To the endless hollow
I shall go
From happiness to sorrow
From something to nothing
From the beginning to the end

You see my truth and see my name
I will believe in you and you will succumb to me
See my truth and see my name
And I will know you
And I will drain you dry

All is fading
All is lost
The endless never
THe blood night
The darker shadows
And the darkest night
The endless never
The blood light

As my life fades out
As death kicks in
Will I regret my life
Of sin
From punisher to punished
From master to slave
To my endless grave

You see my truth and see my name
I will believe in you and you will succumb to me
See my truth and see my name
I will believe in you and you will succumb to me
See my truth and see my name
And I will know you
And I will drain

All is fading
All is lost
The endless never
THe blood night
The darker shadows
And the darkest night
The endless never
The blood light

Take me away
Far from this day
And let me stay
And believe in my shadow

All is fading
All is lost
The endless never
The blood night
The darker shadows
And the darkest night
The endless never
The blood light
Fading black
The endless never...
Fading black
The endless never...

I
Am the essence of ignorance
The destroyer of innocence
Stand by watch you take the fall

I
I wil cut into you my peer
And reveal your darkest fear
As a river of blood you will flow

Look into my eyes
I am the one
I will defy

Looking into an endless mirror
Seeing nothing the end becomes clearer

Feel me now as I (Your soul and your dignity)
Steal some how the fall and I (Your system will fail)
Make you surrender
As I surrender

Now
Now the silence begins my friend
It's the cold, dark and bitter end
Stand by watch it fade watch it fall

Now
Now your fear is reality
All your dreams you will never see
Endless darkness surrounds you now

Is it cold now, my friend
Can you feel it?
This is the end

Looking into the endless never
Seeing into the darkness forever

Feel me now as I (Your soul and your dignity)
Steal some how the fall and I (Your system will fail)
Make you surrender
As I surrender

Your soul is mine!

Feel me now as I (Your soul and your dignity)
Steal some how the fall and I (Your system will fail)
Make you surrender
As I surrender

Saw him perform this song on tv tonight, thought it was awesome.

 

The old devils are at it again.
who knows what they'll do.
it's true right now like it was back then. The old devils are at it again.

from behind these bars the view don't change. desperation death and despair.

from what little i hear of the outside world. well its not to different out there.

 and they tell me there's a war without no end. The old devils are at it again.

 they die by the millions children women and men. The old devils are at it again.

when i say devil you know who i mean these animals in the dark malicious politicians with nefarious schemes charlatans and crooked cops

the moonshine still gives you five to ten The old devils are at it again. stripes on your back and a ball and chain The old devils are at it again.

two men stare out of prison bars wonderin what got'em here. one saw mud but the other saw stars. prayin that the end is near.

well the billboard outside says "confess your sins" The old devils are at it again.

i guess i will confess that I've been sufferin. The old devils are at it again.

i said The old devils are at it again. who knows what they'll do. and it's true right now like it was back then. The old devils are at it again. i said The old devils are at it again. oh oh...

I can feel you when you stay low nothing happens Does it feel right ? Late at night things I thought I put behind me haunt my mind I just know there's no escape now once it sets it's eyes on you but I won't run, have to stare it in the eye Stand my ground, I won't give in No more denying, I gotta face it Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside If I don't make it, someone else will Stand My Ground It's all around getting stronger, coming closer into my world I can feel that it's time for me to face it can I take it? Though this might just be the ending of the life I held so dear but I won't run, there's no turning back from here Stand my ground, I won't give in No more denying, I gotta face it Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside If I don't make it, someone else will Stand My Ground All I know for sure is I'm trying I will always stand my ground Stand my ground, I won't give in (I won't give in) I won't give up (I won't give up) no more denying, I got to face it won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside if I don't make it, someone else will Stand my ground, I won't give in No more denying, I gotta face it Won't close my eyes and hide the truth inside If I don't make it, someone else will Stand My Ground.

This is quite possibly one of the best live songs I have ever heard. The opening note and the end of the second and third choruses are just stupidly good. Anyways, enjoy. Nothing's ever changed, you still turn away You've washed your hands, you've made that all too clear You just keep on living this lie You refuse to see, you're denying me the cross I bear but you don't seem to care Even Judas knew he had lied I keep wondering why I'm still calling your name through my tears Why have you waited to embrace me my dear? Cold is your silence, denying what is real I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name my dear I'm sorry if you can't stand the naked truth All you see is how you want it to be So you keep on living your life Release me from this cross after all these years Oh call my name and help me with this weight Even though it comes far too late I keep wondering why I'm still calling your name through my tears Why have you waited to embrace me my dear Cold is your silence, denying what is real I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name and I wonder, oh I wonder ... In my heart I still hope you will open the door You can purify it all, answer my call Why? Why? Why have you waited to embrace me my dear? Cold is your silence, denying what is real I'm still wondering why I'm still calling your name and I wonder, oh I wonder ... In my heart I still hope you will open the door You can purify it all, answer my call

I am not alone I live with the memories regret is my home This is my true freedom Express all the feelings of what I've become I watch the rising sun I hope I find some peace today [CHORUS] It seems I've gone away It seems I've lost myself It seems really lost my way It seems I've lost myself It seems I've Shed my skin Are you ready for me Or purge my love Are you ready for me A bitter sinking feeling Awake to the fact there's no going back To the world in which I was living I'm searching for something but found less than nothing I watch the rising sun I hope I find some peace today [CHORUS] Are you ready for me Or purge my love Are you ready for me Oh 'cause I'm dying to feel What I have lost Oh and what I was All my life I've waited Endless days have taken Taken what made me free Years have gone I'm broken Left the past unspoken Those years Oh they haunt me still Shed my skin Are you ready for me Or purge my love Are you ready for me And shed my skin

It's all about one set of lyrics in this song, just greatness. "This God that I worship, This demon I blame, Conspire as one, exactly the same" The river I'm bound to be found in, A rope chosen bound for the hang. When I'm blind and I think I see everything, Convincing myself again. This God that I worship (a faded reflection). This demon I blame (a flickering flame). Conspire as one, exactly the same. It's exactly the same. Descending, To never recover the pieces to all that we've lost. Recover the pieces lost. The pieces to all we've lost. I shudder to think of the consequence, It's blasphemy simple and true. The tragic protagonist torments, Convincing myself again. This God that I worship (a faded reflection). This demon I blame (a flickering flame). Conspire as one, exactly the same. It's exactly the same. Descending, To never recover the pieces to all that we've lost. Descending, To never recover the pieces to all that we've lost. Recover the pieces lost. The pieces to all we've lost. This God that I worship This demon I blame Conspire as one, exactly the same It's exactly the same It's exactly the same It's exactly the same
