I don't think anyone guessed at this. Its by Mars Volta but I cant think of the name right now.

"One angry gesture provoked by hate
One friendly favor considered too great
One gracious smile looked upon as fake
Have I become too jaded?"

"I'm inside the Big Machine... And it's eating me!" - Pain of Salvation - "Inside"

"Your sperm's in the gutter, your love's in the sink." - Jethro Tull - "Thick as a Brick"

"See there!  A son is born - and we pronounce him fit to fight.
There are black-heads on his shoulders, and he pees himself in the night." - Jethro Tull - "Thick as a Brick"

"I lie awake watching your shoulders
Move so softly as you breathe.
With every breath you're growing older,
But that is fine if you're with me.

The ray of light plays on your eyelids,
A sleeping beauty dressed in sun." - Pain of Salvation - "This Heart of Mine (I Pledge)"

"Watch fathers and sons pale cling to their guns.
Marching line by line leaving reason behind.
Their eyes now tensed with fear; enemies are near.
But all armies are only fathers and sons..." - Pain of Salvation - "Winning a War"

Since Germanic languages are dominant until now what about some Italian lyrics?

 

Dove stai? Dove sei?
solo dentro me.

Cosa fai? Come sei?
solo come me.
inventarti qua e là
è gioco vecchio oramai:
bussa già
la fretta di te.

Che farai amore mio,
che sorriso avrai?
Dai tuoi si dai tuoi no
cosa imparerò?

Principessa serena del cielo che avrò.
bussa già
la fretta di te.

 

Guigo

The Gates of Delerium- Yes

The fist will run
Grasp metal to gun
The spirit sings in crashing tones we gain the battle drum
Our cries will shrill the air will moan and crash into the dawn
The pen won't stay the demon's wings, the hour approaches
Pounding out the Devil's sermon

I love that line.

We got to pump the stuff to make us tough
from the heart
Its astart
What we need is awareness we cant get careless
Mental self defensive fitness
Make everybody see in order to fight the powers that be

"I had a friend that took a blet, took a blet and hung himself
Hung himself in the doorway of the apartment where he lived
His woman and his little bro came home from the grocery store
Only to find him dangling in the apartment where he lived" Bob Primus

" I've been to hell. I spell it...
I spell it DMV
Anyone that's been there
knows precisely what I mean
Stood there and I've waited
and choked back the urge to scream
And if I had my druthers
I'd screw a chimpanzee" DMV Primus

"Look around at this world we've made
Equality our stock in trade
Come and join the Brotherhood of Man
Oh, what a nice, contented world
Let the banners be unfurled
Hold the Red Star proudly high in hand." Temples of Syrinx

"It's too easy to "be in" with a platform
It's too easy to know what to say
It's harder to sit when everyone else is standing
To shake your head as the world just nods away" Echolyn As the World

"I'll never believe in love anymore
After this
After this "

-------------------------------------------

"And SEX was always there from when I was only eight years - tempting me leave thirsty
Sweat, skin, a PULSE divine to balance this restless MIND - it seemed so wonderfully physical
Oh the BLOOD, the lust, the bodies that color the world: all drugs to die for! Won't you share my fire?
How can LOVE make that world a minefield of forbidden GROUND?
A map of untouchable skin and SILENCED desire?

And love was there in vain, PROFOUND and deep but traced with pain - too early for a child of TEN
Loving the pure and sane he sought the goddess unstained - watching them turn to flesh again
HUNGRY for both the PURITY and SIN
Life seemed to him merely like a GALLERY of how to be
And he was always much more HUMAN than he wished to be
But there is a LOGIC to his world, if they could only see

Wishing - Sickened - Ill - Ticking

SOMEONE still this hunger (it's in my blood) always growing stronger (ticking)
BUDAPEST I'm learning, Budapest you're burning me

This is not who I wanted to be, this is not what I wanted to see
She's so young so why don't I feel free now that she is here under me?

Naked - Touching - Soft - Clutching

And then after all it lead me here to wake up again
Seeking a love that might make me feel free in myself but then it proves to be
Something that hurts inside when we touch, so I move on, I lose my way
Astray I'm trying too much to feel unchained, to burn out this sense of feeling cold
And every day I seek my prey: someone to taste and to hold
I feel alive during the split second when they smile and meet my eyes
But I could cry 'cause I feel broken inside!
COME and DROWN with me- the UNDERTOW will sweep us away!
And you will see that I'm ADDICTED to my HONESTY
Trust! 'Cause after all my sense of TRUTH once brought me here
But I've LOST control and I don't know if I am true to my soul
I've lost CONTROL and I don't know if I am true to my soul
Losing control and I don't know if I am TRUE AT ALL

[Johan Hallgren]
[Daniel Gildenlow]

And we were always much more human than we wished to be...
And I remember when you said you've been UNDER him - I was suprised to feel such pain
And all those years of being faithful to YOU despite the hunger flowing through my veins
And I have always tried to calm things down - SWALLOW down swallow down
"It's just another small THORN in my crown"
But suddenly one day there was too much blood in my eyes, and I had to take this WALK down
REMEDY LANE of whens and whys...

Empty - Licking - Clean - Choking

SOMEONE still this hunger (possessing my mind) always growing stronger (craving)
BUDAPEST I'm learning, Budapest I'm burning me
This is not who I wanted to be, this is not what I wanted to see
She's so young so why I don't feel free now that she's under me?
In the morning she's going away in a Budapest taxi I've paid
Seeking freedom I touched the untouched - it's too much - I'm BEYOND THE PALE...

Prematurity is the story of both you and me, and we were always much more human than we wished to be
Prematurity is truly the story of both you and me, and we were always much more human than we wished to be
We were always much more human than we wished to be - we were always much more human than we wished to be
We will always be more human then we wish to be

WE WILL ALWAYS BE SO MUCH MORE HUMAN THAN WE WISH TO BE..."

Second Love and Beyond The Pale of Pain Of Salvation. 15 minutes of prog glory. The best and more emotional lyrics that I never heard in music. Remedy Lane is truly a big, big, masterpiece.

 

"So here I am once more in the playground of the broken hearts
One more experience, one more entry in a diary, self-penned
Yet another emotional suicide overdosed on sentiment and pride"

 

"So I'll hold our peace forever when you wear your bridal gown
In the silence of my shame the mute that sang the sirens' song
Has gone solo in the game, I've gone solo in the game
But the game is over


Can you still say you love me?"

 

"Last night you said I was cold, untouchable
A lonely piece of action from another town
I just want to be free, I'm happy to be lonely
Can't you stay away?
Just leave me alone with my thoughts
Just a runaway, just a runaway
I'm saving myself"

 

"Please excuse me, I never meant to break your heart
So sorry, I never meant to break your heart
But you broke mine"

"Kayleigh I'm still trying to write that love song
Kayleigh it's more important to me now you're gone"

 

It's neccesary to tell the band?


"Let me drain!
Let me die!
Let me break the things I love I need to cry!
Let me burn it all!
Let me take my fall!
Through the cleansing fire!
Now let me die!
Let me die..."

PoS again.

 

"Do You really think I need you?"

 

"Preparing for her flight
I held with all my might
Fearing my deepest fright
She walked into the night
She turned for one last look
She looked me in the eye
I said, "I Love You...
Good-bye"

Space-Dye Vest and A Change Of Seasons by Dream Theater.

 

"Lord, if you don't help me I can't get through this.
I can't...
Lord, I'm too old for games,
Foolish wisdom...
And I'm tired of rhetoric, meaningless rhetoric that never changes things...
Lord, just help me,
Just help me...

I was feeling god's pain and I've never had anything that's been any worse to god,
In my fifty years that wasn't born in agony, never, never...
Damn empty...
And I know that simons won't do it,
I know that revelation won't do it,
Comedies won't do it,
I know now, oh my god do I know it...

Until I'm in agony,
Until I'm in anguish over it,
I'm preaching sermons...
Oh god...

I broke down and I wept and I mourned,
Does it matter to you at all?
I can't handle this,
I can barely make it into here...

Little by little you're losing me, you're almost caught...
Love with christ.
People I know that were my friends,
I've seen them go one by one, some of my closest friends...

You're changing from what you were,
You're CHANGING,
Little by little somethings happening to you...
Will he bring you to your knees?
That's all the devil wants to do take the fight out of you, and kill it,
So you won't in prayer anymore,
So you won't weep before god anymore,
Go to HELL,
No weeping, not one prayer, still nothing,
This is life and death - and the walls go down and ruin sets in...

Where's the tears?
Where's the mourning?
Where's the confessing?
The love of christ?

I had to get the agony of gods heart...
WE... HAVE SINNED!!!"

 

Incredible track, and incredible lyrics from this not-so-incredible-band called Evergrey.

"Young man says you are what you eat, eat well.
Old man says you are what you wear, wear well.
You know who you are, you don't give a damn"


"Do my words mean more to hear when I am standing here?
On a stage like all your silly idols do!
Open up your eyes - all. Let your walls and grins fall.
Would you reach for something new, if the crowds were reaching too?
Are you close enough to taste their tears at all?"
"One had to be a Newton to notice that the moon is falling, when everyone sees that it doesn't fall. "

Good thread! I have been listening to a LOT of Opeth lately, and have been struck by the darkness and pure evil (without being gory like some other heavy acts) of some of Mikael's imagery.

Favorites:

"I hear the baying of the hounds in the distance,
I hear them devouring.
Pest-ridden jackals of the earth,
Diabolical beasts roaming the forests." (I heard this song for the first time while I was playing World Of Warcraft, and battling bears and wolves in Ashenvale Forest. That had an impact that I always remember whenever I hear the song. )

"Face down beneath the waterline gazing into the depth..."

"Into the orchard I walk peering way past the gate"

"Ghost of mother, lingering death;
Ghost on mother's bed.
Black strands on the pillow, contour of her health.
Twisted face upon the head.

Ghost of perdition stuck in her chest,
A warning no one read.
Tragic friendship called inside the fog
Pouring venom brew, deceiving."

What if the rest of the world was hopelessly blinded by fear?
Where would my sanctity live? Suddenly nobody cares...
What if the rest of the world was hopelessly drowning in vain?
Where would our self pity run? Suddenly everyone cares.

Dream Theater - "Scarred"

Strangers passing in the street by chance two separate glances meet and I am you and what I see is me. And do I take you by the hand and lead you through the land and help me understand the best I can
