Take these bones
My spirit doesn’t need them any longer
In the zones
Between the living and the dead

Take these eyes
‘Cuz I don’t need to see another minute
Of this life
From which I’m hanging by a thread

Please let go
We’ll maybe meet again in someone’s vision
Who could know
If there’s another world up there?

On my own
I’m passing through the final resolution
Going home
Without a promise or a prayer

The hour of indecision
Too late to change your mind
Was it all superstition
It lies and then you’re dying

In my time
I tried but didn’t find a real direction
Chose a line
On the periphery of life

Say goodbye
There’s no escape from absolute conclusion
Life goes by
But memories remain the same

Remain the same

Black Sabbath – Take Me Home

Once upon a time in a day-mare

Dying to meet you, little child
Enter, enter this sideshow

Time for bed, the cradle still rocks

13 chimes on a dead man’s clock
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock

The bride will lure you, cook you, eat you

Your dear innocence boiled to feed
The evil in need of fear

Burning farms and squealing pigs

Pool of snakes to swim with
Oh, sweet poison, bite me, bite me…

“Ladies and gentlemen

Be heartlessly welcome!

To Cirque De Morgue

And what a show we have for you tonight!"

Restless souls will put on their dancing shoes

Mindless ghouls with lot of limbs to lose

Illusionists, contortionist,

Tightrope-walkers tightening the noose

Horde of spiders, closet tentacles

Laughing harpies with their talons
Ripping, sher-chrisss, per-vizzz

The pendulum still sways for you

Such are the darks here to show you
Child in a corner,
fallen mirrors, all kingdom in cinders

Nightwish – Scaretale

Lightning strikes
I hear the thunder roar
Black crow cries
I am afraid no more

Hammer of the Gods, protect my path
On this warrior’s trail to great hall up high
All my enemies shall fear my wrath
Wait for me, Odin, as I go forth now to die

Light of the North Star, upon me shine
Luminate my path to the great hall
Blood of North-Men, in these veins of mine
Glory and homeland, for you I’ll spill it all

Black Wings Over Midgard
Tell me that my path is sure
Odin, lord of Asgard
Your hall my home assured

Vikingbard – Black Wings Over Midgard

A stormy wind moves the air

Out of the walls of Paris

The fear is growing fast in my soul

Fate is telling his truth

Now, let me pass or I’ll kill you

The King of Heaven is by my side

And you’ll lose if you don’t mind

Let me pass or I’ll kill you

You, brave and daring men of mine

We’ll take Paris or we’ll die

The men are standing with faith

They’re trusting in me again

Tension is clear in their glance

This time I can’t assure to win

My voices have told me the way

How I have to die

The time of my mission is close to the end

God, I need Your help just for this fight anymore

The siege has begun and I fear

Something is going in a wrong way

The time of the mission is close to the end

I’m bearing this pain for last fight

The men are waiting for me but I can’t

Assure the victory again

Take this town for thy King

And fight with passion

Fight with me till the end

I’ll give you the glory and fame

I bring fear to the troops of thy enemy

Take this town for thy King

’Cuz the time is close to the end

Take this town for thy King

And fight with passion

Fight with me till the end

I’ll give you the glory and fame

I bring desperation to thy troops

Take this town for thy King

‘Cuz the time is close to the end

Thy Majestie – Siege of Paris

(used the other album art because, you know, this song is “Sad But True”, apparently)

Hide – my face again, harbor in the shadows
Feel – this weight of sin, hammering away

Die – with the guilt, of a thousand AWOL soldiers
Die – watch the scythe, usher me astray

I can’t go on this way
Not as I am today
The ugly side of me is strong

Take aim, a loaded gun
Pull back on all who run
A coward’s truth inside the wrong

This Means War
This Means War
This Means War!

Lash – your tongue of bane, carry me to nowhere
Mental – holocaust, battle never ends
Lie – mask the pain, of a child who’s forsaken
Lie – to myself, praise the new regime

I left me long ago
Reasons you’ll never know
No one to miss me when I’m gone

With no more words to say
No argument to stay
Another post I don’t belong

This Means War
This Means War
This Means War
This Means War
This Means War!

No home to call my own…
No finding someone new…
No one to break the fall…
No one to see me through!

No name to carry on…
No promise for today…
No one to hear the call…
No tattered flag to raise!

Walk – the razor’s edge, cut into the madness
Question – all you trust, buy into the fear
I – see the man, ripping at my soul now
I – I know the man, I know him all too well

There’s nothing here for free
Lost who I wanna be
My serpent blood can strike so cold

On any given day
I’ll take it all away
Another thought I can’t control

This Means War
This Means War
This Means War
This Means War
This Means War!

Avenged Sevenfold – This Means War

(i swear, this intro reminds me of “Wish I Had an Angel”)

I Want My Tears Back!

The treetops, the chimneys, the snow-bed stories, winter grey

Wildflowers, those Meadows of Heaven, wind in the wheat

A railroad cross waters, the scent of grandfatherly love

Blue bayous, Decembers, moon through a dragonfly’s wings

Where is the wonder, where’s the awe?

Where’s dear Alice knocking on the door?

Where’s the trapdoor that takes me there?

Where the real is shattered by a Mad March Hare?

Where is the wonder, where’s the awe?

Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for?

Before the years take me

I wish to see
the lost in me

I Want My Tears Back!

I Want My Tears Back now!

A ballet on a grove, still growing young all alone

A rag doll, a best friend, the voice of Mary Costa

Where is the wonder, where’s the awe?

Where’s dear Alice knocking on the door?

Where’s the trapdoor that takes me there?

Where the real is shattered by a Mad March Hare?

Where is the wonder, where’s the awe?

Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for?

Before the years take me

I wish to see
the lost in me

I Want My Tears Back!

I Want My Tears Back now!

Where is the wonder, where’s the awe?

Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for?

Before the years take me

I wish to see
the lost in me

I Want My Tears Back!

I Want My Tears Back now!

Nightwish – I Want My Tears Back

I’m trapped among these walls

The anguish fills my soul

Faithful to my king, awaiting to make me free

Feeling an awful sorrow
She was wondering about the signs
And she whispered and she prayed for their coming forth
Desperate, humiliated, threatened by her doom

I am left at the mercy of fate
Forsaken by everyone
Please, my LORD
Pray hear my words for I am in Your hands

And light my path and tell me what to do
Save me, I shall wait for Your signs
’Cuz the time is running out
And I fear my fate

Now I remember my life
It is night, the Time to Die
And I wait, the end will come
‘Cuz my fate’s already done

Amon Amarth – At Dawn’s First Light

You load the dice and paint the smile upon your face
With fingers crossed you switch the perfume with the mace
What kind of dreams to you enjoy inside your bed?
I’ll face the lies and shake the evil from your head

Black Illusion
Is all I ever see
Black Illusion
I bring you misery

Oh yeah…yeah

You always seem to know the answer to it all
You seem to cheat the truth and never take the fall
Your life is hollow and you simplify the rules
The time will come when you will join the other fools

Black Illusion
Is all I ever see
Black Illusion
I bring you misery

Oh yeah…yeah

I load the dice and fake a smile upon my face
With fingers crossed I switch the perfume with the mace
What kind of dreams do I enjoy inside my bed?
You’ll face the lies and shake the evil from my head

Black Illusion

Black Illusion

Ozzy Osbourne – Black Illusion

A lone soul at night sits and bays at the moon

Though sometimes he’s a man, it’s a Pentagram

Shogun blasts as he runs with the wind

But he just can’t win, it’s the Pentagram

And now don’t know how but it’s happening to me

Got the love from above but it’s happening to me

Black cloud hang and it just won’t leave

Though be tries to believe, it’s a Pentagram

Hard to conceive and he wants to perceive

But he’s destined to grieve, it’s the Pentagram

Now don’t know but it’s happening to me

Got the love from above but it’s happening to me

I can’t turn back now!

Stories unfold, but they’ve all been told

When he sold his soul to the Pentagram

And to end his life, though the silver is old

He will reach his goal by the Pentagram

And now don’t know how but it’s happening to me

Got the love from above but it’s happening to me

Tell me one more time!

It’s alright

I can’t turn back now

‘Cuz it’s the Sign of the Wolf
