Lamento Eroico

By RHAPOSDY

Langue in me l'eco infranto
al truce sguardo dell'angelo cieco
rovina in me l'antica rima
nel cuor del cigno ferito e morente...

Cosmi di eternita' tradita
di verita' svanite che ora versano
lacrime d'addio in un vuoto nero...
sincero e fiero al mio destino andro'...

URLA IL TUONO
AL MIO LAMENTO EROICO
SORTE... CONSUMA LA REALTA'!

Spiriti di mondi arcani
chiedo la vita al di la' della morte
per allinear le stelle amiche
e diventar guardiano celeste

Custode di eternita' guarita
di verita' trovate per tutti i figli di madre terra...
sempre a lei ho dato la vita... la morte...
cosi' continuero'!

URLA IL TUONO
AL MIO LAMENTO EROICO
SORTE... CONSUMA LA REALTA'!
 
A Few Simple Words
Cowboy Junkies

What does he see in those mashed potatoes?
What secrets does he hold that can be so grin?
The silence like a canyon dividing them
he's on one side she's opposite him
trying so desperately to get his attention.
She says, "Honey, you're a bastard
of great proportion."
He says, "Darling, I plead guilty to that sin."
With potatoes half way to his mouth
he looks her in the eye and says,
"Without a doubt
my love for you is all that I believe in".

With those few simple words
her heart is sent soaring
she's able to face another day.
Through the anger and the laughter
she knows that she matters
and somebody out there cares.

What does she gain by all this sulking?
What trouble can there be for one so young?
Dark tension building like the clouds of a storm
her daughter's in her room and she's at the door
trying to figure what all this fuss is for.

She says, "Mother, you're a witch
and I'll always hate you".
She says, "Daughter, perhaps these words
you speak are true".
She quietly moves towards the bed,
looks her in the eye gently says,
"But I will always believe in you".

With those few simple words
her heart is sent soaring
she's able to face another day.
Through the anger and the laughter
she knows that she matters
and somebody out there cares.

What do we need to keep us going?
What do we need at the end of the day?
Mysteries keep piling like dirty clothes
in the corner.
You never thought you'd give up,
but you're beginning to wonder
when through the gloom you hear
a familiar voice say....

.... a few simple words
that send your heart soaring
you're able to face another day.
Through the anger and the laughter
you know that you matter
and somebody out there cares.
 
Anniversary Song
Cowboy Junkies


Have you ever seen a sight as beautiful
as that of the rain-soaked purple
of the white birch in spring?

Have you ever felt more fresh or wonderful
than on a warm fall night
under a Mackerel sky,
the smell of grapes on the wind?

Well I have known all these things
and the joys that they can bring
And I'll share them all for a cup of coffee
and to wear your ring

Have you ever had the pleasure of watching
a quiet winter's snow slowly gathering
like simple moments adding up?

Have you ever satisfied a gut feeling
to follow a dry dirt road that's beckoning you
to the heart of a shimmering summer's day?

Well I have known all these things
and the joys that they can bring
And I'll share them all for a cup of coffee
and to wear your ring

And I don't know how I survived those days
before I held your hand
Well I never thought that I would be the one
to admit that the moon and the sun
shine so much more brighter when
seen through two pairs of eyes than
when seen through just one

Have you ever seen a sight as beautiful
as a face in a crowd of people
that lights up just for you?

Have you ever felt more fresh or wonderful
as when you wake
by the side of that boy or girl
who has pledged their love to you?

Well I have known all these things
and the joys that they can bring
And now every morning there's a cup of coffee
and I wear your ring
 
Hunted
Cowboy Junkies

Emma's in a part of town
where she doesn't recognize the streets
named for famous native sons
and out of every crevice comes creeping
a threat in her direction
Lucy's outside her home
heading towards her corner store
she stays on well-travelled paths
and is always making sure
that she doesn't develop patterns

There are trap lines
running up and down Main Street
wire snares thirsting for your neck and feet

Susan doesn't like the way her curtains
are blowing in the wind
She swears she locked that window
before she went out dancing
she stands frozen in her doorway
Judy hears a sound coming from the other room
she knows she should be alone
'cause the kids left at noon
to go visit their father

Quick to your phone dial 911
invite a strange man into your home
who'll be carrying a gun

Leslie's working late
she's got a deadline to meet
In walks her boss,
upon her desk he puts his feet
and says alone at last
Reanne's got a new boyfriend
and they're getting along
until he locks the door and says don't struggle,
I'm stronger than you are.

Just one question I'm dying to ask, you said,
do you know what it's like to be hunted?
 
Bad To The Bone

By RUNNING WILD

Sixty years ago with the world at war
Hands bloodied - devastated
Better believe they're back for more
Pounding the world with a fist of steel
Jack booted, heavy handed
Careless of the pain we feel

Bastards - throwing life away
Killers - alive today

Oh oh oh oh
Don't tell no lies
I see through your eyes
You're bad to the bone
Oh oh oh oh
Don't tell no lies
You can't hear the cries
'Cos you're bad to the bone

Times have changed but he don't know
Zoot suit, black tie
Careless that the lies are low
One for all and all for one
Talking smooth - hidden truth
Time bomb ticking just begun

Standing alone for the world to see
Non-starter - push harder
He still believes his time will come
Small wonder - old thunder
Can't he see that he's wrong
 
The Battle Of Waterloo

By RUNNING WILD

June the 18th 1815, the Battle at "Belle-Alliance"
Marshy fields and pouring
rain all the blood and cannon's fire, cuirassier's attack
British grenadiers stand tight
Wellington's command
"Bluecher or the night" but no Prussian on the sight

The Battle of Waterloo, a sea of blood that stains the fields
The Battle of Waterloo, lead and steel the bloody gods
The Battle of Waterloo, they fight and die, fall one by one
The Battle of Waterloo, a tribute to the bloody death

Fight, fight - you have to stand unite
Kill, kill - come on and have your thrill
Bleed, bleed - your blood flows on the field
Die, die - but nobody will ever cry for you

The French guard marches on and on straight towards British lines
Bluechers Prussians join the fight storming the fire side
The French guards fall one by one but
Napoleon has gone
Do you know who's paying the costs?
The little soldier, he's lost

The Battle of Waterloo, a sea of blood that stains the fields
The Battle of Waterloo, lead and steel the bloody gods
The Battle of Waterloo, they fight and die, fall one by one
The Battle of Waterloo, a tribute to the bloody death
 
Underworld

Bu RUNNING WILD

Evil souls and blackest hearts, lurking in the night
A darkened race, so mean and sly, they keep away from light
Ancient words tell dreadful tales about the other side
About its world where demons live and where the evil hides
They invade the world with war and pain to save their evil aim
Their power's build on blackest lies, but man will pay its price

Underworld, the centre of the blackest heart
Underworld, where the evil side hides in the dark

They've ruled the world through history, the lords of war and crime
Military and government, they're brought into line
Men in black, they cover up the sight of U.F.O.'s
Their power's safe as long as there is no one who knows!

They invade the world with war and pain to save their evil aim
Their power's build on blackest lies, but man will pay its price

Underworld, the centre of the blackest heart
Underworld, where the evil side hides in the dark

Churches built on holy spots its energy to ban
Exposing truth, who's the church? blackest kind of men
Religion's made to obscure the mind, living on its lies
Who's the one to wear its crown? the devil! no disguise!

They invade the world with war and pain to save their evil aim
Their power's build on blackest lies, but man will pay its price

Underworld, the centre of the blackest heart
Underworld, where the evil side hides in the dark
Underworld, where laws were made to hide the truth
Underworld, where evilness and darkness rules

You have eyes to see, nevertheless you see nothing!
You have a soul to feel, nevertheless you feel nothing!
You have a mind to know, nevertheless you know nothing!

That is the way WE want you to be!!! HO HO HO...!!!
 
In The Palm Of Your Hand
Alison Krauss

If I could have the world and all it owns
A thousand kingdoms, a thousand thrones
If all the earth were mine to hold
With wealth my only goal

I'd spend my gold on selfish things
Without the love that Your life brings
Just a little bit more is all I'd need
'Til life was torn from me

I'd rather be in the palm of Your hand
Though rich or poor I may be
Faith can see right through the circumstance
Sees the forest in spite of the trees
Your grace provides for me

If I should walk the streets no place to sleep
No faith in promises You keep
I'd have no way to buy my bread
With a bottle for my bed

But if I trust the One who died for me
Who shed His blood to set me free
If I live my life to trust in You
Your grace will see me through

I'd rather be in the palm of Your hand
Though rich or poor I may be
Faith can see right through the circumstance
Sees the forest in spite of the trees

If I could have the world
If I could have the world and all it owns
 
Wanted Dead Or Alive
Bon Jovi

It's all the same, only the names will change
Everyday it seems we're wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I'd drive all night
Just to get back home
I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days
And the people I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you're alone and all you do is think

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back
I play for keeps, 'cause I might not make it back
I been everywhere, still I'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces
And I've rocked them all

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive
 
Always - Saliva

I hear... a voice say don't blind
It's telling me all these things that you would probably hide
Am I... your one and only desire
Am I the reason you breath or am I the reason you cry

Always, Always, Always, Always, Always, Always
I just can't live without you

I love you, I hate you
I can't get around you
I breath you, I taste you
I can't live without you
I just can't take anymore this life of solitude
I guess that I'm out the door now I'm done with you

I feel... like you don't want me around
I guess I'll pack all my things
I guess I'll see you around
It's all been bottled up until now
As I walk out your door all I can hear is the sound

Always, Always, Always, Always, Always, Always
I just can't live without you

I love you, I hate you
I can't get around you
I breath you, I taste you
I can't live without you
I just can't take anymore this life of solitude
I guess that I'm out the door now I'm done with you

I love you, I hate you
I can't get around you
I left my head around your heart
Why would you tear my world apart?

Always, Always, Always,

I see the blood all over your hands
Does it make you feel more like a man?
Was it all just a part of your plan
The pistol shakin' in my hands
And all I hear is the sound

I love you, I hate you
I can't live without you
I love you, I hate you
I can't live without you
I just can't take any more this life of solitude
I pick myself of the floor now I'm done with you

Always, Always, Always.
 
I will kill you - Cannibal Corpse

Bleed from my pain
Revenge on treacherous snakes
They will pay
.
Slicing my flesh
Sculptured wounds my catharsis
I will stain
.
Into the heart
Needle injects gasoline
Convulsions
.
The one that they betrayed
Has made them this way
.
Plagued by the bastards
I will kill you
Killed by my rage
.
Scream at my face
The grisly scars went un avenged
Until know
.
Deep in the hole
You are gagged and scream aloud
But unheard
.
Choke on your vomit
You watch your hands cut off
Then your legs
.
The one that you betrayed
Will kill you this way
.
Scarred by the bastards
I will kill you
Killed by my rage
I must kill you
.
Into the throat
The scalpel slices
Warm blood sprays out
The gushing entices
.
Pull out your heart
And let you watch
Shove in your mouth
Then stab your crotch
.
I watch your agony
.
I am released
From years of pain
You death averted
My becoming insane
You are dead
.
I have killed you
 
"People say I'm no good
Crazy as a loon.
'Cause I get stoned in the morning
Get drunk in the afternoon
Kinda like my old blue tick hound
I like to lay around in the shade
Ain't got no money
But I damned sure got it made

'Cause I ain't asking for nothing
If I can't get on my own
If you don't like the way I'm living,
You just leave this long-haired country boy alone.

Preacher man talking on the TV
Putting down the rock and roll
Wants me to send a donation
'Cause he's worried about my soul.
Now Jesus walked on the water,
and friend I know that's true,
But it seems that preacher man wants to do a little walking too

'Cause I ain't asking nobody for nothing,
If I can't get it on my own.
If you don't like the way I'm living,
You just leave this long-haired country boy alone.

It's an old Charlie Daniels song, and damned if I can't remember the third verse
 
Sugar Baby
Bob Dylan

from his latest studio album "Love and Theft" (2001) (Excellent album BTW - one his best ever I think believe it or not!)

I got my back to the sun 'cause the light is too intense
I can see what everybody in the world is up against
You can't turn back - you can't come back, sometimes we push too far
One day you'll open up your eyes and you'll see where we are

Sugar Baby get on down the road
You ain't got no brains, no how
You went years without me
Might as well keep going now

Some of these bootleggers, they make pretty good stuff
Plenty of places to hide things here if you wanna hide 'em bad enough
I'm staying with Aunt Sally, but you know, she's not really my aunt
Some of these memories you can learn to live with and some of them you can't

Sugar Baby get on down the line
You ain't got no brains, no how
You went years without me
You might as well keep going now

The ladies down in Darktown, they're doing the Darktown Strut
You always got to be prepared but you never know for what
There ain't no limit to the amount of trouble women bring
Love is pleasing, love is teasing, love's not an evil thing

Sugar Baby, get on down the road
You ain't got no brains, no how
You went years without me
You might as well keep going now

Every moment of existence seems like some dirty trick
Happiness can come suddenly and leave just as quick
Any minute of the day the bubble could burst
Try to make things better for someone, sometimes,
you just end up making it a thousand times worse

Sugar Baby, get on down the road
You ain't got no brains no how
You went years without me
Might as well keep going now

Your charms have broken many a heart and mine is surely one
You got a way of tearing a world apart, love, see what you done
Just as sure as we're living, just as sure as you're born
Look up, look up - seek your Maker - 'fore Gabriel blows his horn

Sugar Baby, get on down the line
You ain't got no sense, no how
You went years without me
Might as well keep going now
 
The Rising
Bruce Springsteen

Can't see nothin' in front of me
Can't see nothin' coming up behind
I make my way through this darkness
I can't feel nothing but this chain that binds me
Lost track of how far I've gone
How far I've gone, how high I've climbed
On my back's a sixty pound stone
On my shoulder a half mile of line

Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight

Left the house this morning
Bells ringing filled the air
Wearin' the cross of my calling
On wheels of fire I come rollin' down here

Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight

Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li

There's spirits above and behind me
Faces gone black, eyes burnin' bright
May their precious blood bind me
Lord, as I stand before your fiery light

Li,li, li,li,li,li, li,li,li

I see you Mary in the garden
In the garden of a thousand sighs
There's holy pictures of our children
Dancin' in a sky filled with light
May I feel your arms around me
May I feel your blood mix with mine
A dream of life comes to me
Like a catfish dancin' on the end of my line

Sky of blackness and sorrow ( a dream of life)
Sky of love, sky of tears (a dream of life)
Sky of glory and sadness ( a dream of life)
Sky of mercy, sky of fear ( a dream of life)
Sky of memory and shadow ( a dream of life)
Your burnin' wind fills my arms tonight
Sky of longing and emptiness (a dream of life)
Sky of fullness, sky of blessed life

Come on up for the rising
Come on up, lay your hands in mine
Come on up for the rising
Come on up for the rising tonight

Armageddon

By PRIMAL FEAR

WAITED IN A STATE OF SLEEP

RAISED TO FIGHT THE HOLY WAR
WON'T MAKE IT THRU THIS NIGHT
INNOCENCE IS NO EXCUSE
A MILLION GOTTA DIE

BORN TO KILL - ALLAH'S WILL

IF THIS IS ARMAGEDDON
THEN WHO THE HELL ARE YOU

SAID A PRAYER IN THE NIGHT
A QUICK ONE'S GOTTA DO
NOTHING'S TRUE AS FIRE
AND THEY'RE BRINGIN' IT TO YOU
THE MOMENT OF REVENGE HAS COME NOW
NEVER SHALL IT END

BLIND OF HATE - NO DEBATE

IF THIS IS ARMAGEDDON
THEN WHO THE HELL ARE YOU
THE SOLDIERS OF THE HOLY WAR
ARE BRINGIN' HELL TO YOU

IF THIS IS ARMAGEDDON
THEN WHO THE HELL ARE YOU
THE SOLDIERS OF THE HOLY WAR
ARE BRINGIN' HELL TO YOU

i'm in the sky when i'm on the floor
the world's a mess and you're my only cure
there's no time for me to act mature
the only words i know are "more, more" and "more"

no one to criticize me then
no one to criticize
no one to criticize me then
no one to criticize

there's no fear when i'm in my room
it's so clear and i know just what i want to do
all day bedroom dancing
to you I wanna say
you're my thing
 
Children Of The Storm

By VIRGIN STEELE

Forget in Fire, tempered in STEEL,
CHILDREN OF THE STORM
Never Kneel !!!

Tear down the Walls!
Break the chain!

The wicked wind is howling and it's screaming out my name
Above the ring of fire, the necromancer reigns
With thunder and lightning, he enforces his command
Of evil, lust and violence, destruction rules the land

CHILDREN OF THE STORM, on and on we run
CHILDREN OF THE STORM trying to find the sun

With wrathful hearts we've scaled the fortress
Whose summits reach the sky
In vain we roared and were defeated
His majesty reigns high

Weeping and wailing, another maiden dies
In the wind and ice we gather to blast this Demon from the sky

CHILDREN OF THE STORM, on and on we run
CHILDREN OF THE STORM trying to find the sun

Shadows fly past, but the Black Knight holds fast
And I'll trust in the strength of my song
Over the edge went the dark flame of dread,
And it's all in the strength of my hand

CHILDREN OF THE STORM, on and on we run
CHILDREN OF THE STORM trying to find the sun

CHILDREN OF THE STORM, on and on we run
CHILDREN OF THE STORM trying to find the sun

Keep on your guard, trust in the Sword,
face the flames... FACE THE FLAMES!!!
 
The Chosen Ones

By VIRGIN STEELE

Marching across the desert sands
Condemned to drift from land to land
No food or water or heaven's rain
So many tears and so much pain
It's a long road the nights are so cold
A thousand miles from my home
Now the wasteland becomes our homeland
There is no peace for those who roam...roam

They call them the CHOSEN ONES
But that's just a lie
They call them the CHOSEN ONES
Yet so many die
If they're the CHOSEN ONES
Under the sky
Who made them the CHOSEN ONES
To suffer and die
Only the pain here now is real...so real

Swords and arrows cannot defame
When they invoke thy masters name
The north star beckons beyond the gate
To live in strife is their only fate...oh
A thousand miles but I still roam....still I roam!!!
A promise foretold, the armies can't hold
The burning secrets on the scroll...still I roam...burn!

They call them the CHOSEN ONES
But that's just a lie
They call them the CHOSEN ONES
Yet so many die
If they're the CHOSEN ONES
Under the sky
Why must these CHOSEN ONES
Suffer and die...
Only the pain here now is real...march!
A million miles away
Oh...my god why have you forsaken me
Oh...we'll never understand

They call them the CHOSEN ONES
But that's just a lie
They call them the CHOSEN ONES
Yet so many die
If they're the CHOSEN ONES
Under the sky
Who made them the CHOSEN ONES
To suffer and die...
Only the pain here now is real...march! march!
(Across the desert...burning sand...black sun...no rain...
Burning in the sand...burn)
Only the pain, only the pain, omly the pain keeps us alive
The pain, the pain keeps us Alive!!!

Oh...my god why have you forsaken me
You'll never understand...
 
CASE OF PRIDE - Skrewdriver

You're wondering how you'll make it through the day
Pack your bag and then you'll get up on your way

Once you had the money baby, and you didn't have to steal
You're a case of pride and I know just how you feel

You can't go home 'cause they'll see that you have failed
Can't afford much food and you're looking pale

Once you had the money baby, and you didn't have to steal
You're a case of pride and I know just how you feel

Once you had so many true ambitions in your head
Now you sleep in a railway arch but you can't afford no bed
Once they told you about the things that they'd achieved
Made you feel so useless that you had to leave

Once you had the money baby, and you didn't have to steal
You're a case of pride and I know just how you feel
Once you had the money baby, and you didn't have to steal
You're a case of pride and I know just how you feel Once you had the money baby, and you didn't have to steal
You're a case of pride and I know just how you feel
