This song's for you (part 2)

Of Sins And Shadows

By Symphony X

Passing through the void
The darkest grand illusion
Chaos is riding on the wind

Destroyed in agony
They create a maddened lair
Summon all to heed their cry

Innocence fading away
- the dying eyes of prey

Desperate cries, hail of fire deciding
All our fate in the night
Tempt in sin, shadows then begin to
Gather the souls they hold within

Victims of desire
Pestilence of their invasion
Forms then take on evil waves

Paralyze, victimize
The shadows fall and enter fast
from the sky - (from the sky)
Summon all to heed their cry

Innocence fading away
- the dying eyes of the prey

Desperate cries, hail of fire deciding
All our fate in the night
Tempt in sin, shadows then begin to
Gather the souls they hold within

I've betrayed - slowly fade
I repent my inner plea
I've denied - sanctified
Cannot hide form this
monstrosity

I'm immersed in a curse
Of this jaded imagery
Realize that your cries
Only jeopardize this legacy

Desperate cries, hail of fire deciding
All our fate in the night
Tempt in sin, shadows then begin to
Gather the souls they hold within
 
The Accolade

By Symphony X

Into the morning sun
Down his chosen road he rides to save the world
Cross of crimson, robe of white
Sworn to the quest for the rest of his life

Play shields and wooden swords
Slaying dragons as a knight of Arthur's Court
Trained to kill, to sing a song
Youthful hope to right the wrong

Sons of Antioch
An angel's voice cries out to him
Free the holy lands,
bring peace to it again

Across the sees through sands of time
Knight of the Templar
A charging steed through lands unkind
A legend forever

A heart of gold pumps within his metal skin
A noble line he carries on

[Solo]

Braving the bloody din
Silver spurs are justly earned by
strength within
Squire to knight,
like prince to king
Chalice of life completes the ring

Into the morning sun
Down his chosen road he rides to
save the world

Across the sees through sands of time
Knight of the Templar
A charging steed through lands unkind
A legend forever

To see the light to spent his life
to understand
The sword he once held tight,
falls forever from his hands

Across the seas through sands of time
Knight of the Templar
A charging steed through lands unkind
A legend forever
 
Pharaoh

By Symphony X

Ancient lands, lost in time
Storms of sand, walls of lime
Surround this mask of death I wear

Awakened by intruder souls
The jackal screams as my stone gods behold
Desecraters of Ra

Pharaoh's curse upon you
Who dares to invade his sacred ground
Gods of the Nile arise to strike you down

Forgotten days of my rule, cities
blazed with gold and jewel
Diamond symbol of riches
beyond compare

Now I lay cold in this chamber of stone
Fools forsaken the wrath of my throne
Desecraters of Ra

Pharaoh's curse upon you
Who dares to invade his sacred ground
Gods of the Nile arise to strike you down

Mystic gods of the stars
- I summon thee from afar
Sun, moon and earth
- align for my rebirth

I feel the blood flow through my veins
The life force shines on me again
Let the ritual begin
- you will pay for your sins

I am god, I am king of the land
The hour of judgement is at hand
Winds of revenges sweep through the sand
The mighty pharaoh lives again

Pharaoh's curse upon you
Who dares to invade his sacred ground
Gods of the Nile arise to strike you down
 
Aces High
Iron Maiden
Powerslave [1984]

There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak
Out for the scramble we've got to get airborne
Got to get up for the coming attack.

Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines
Remove all the wheelblocks there's no time to waste
Gathering speed as we head down the runway
Gotta get airborne before it's too late.

Running, scrambling, flying
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Run, live to fly, fly to live. Aces high.

Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers
Let off a sharp burst and then turn away
Roll over, spin round and come in behind them
Move to their blindsides and firing again.

Bandits at 8 O'clock move in behind us
Ten ME-109's out of the sun
Ascending and turning our spitfires to face them
Heading straight for them I press down my guns

Rolling, turning, diving
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high.
 
One of my all time favourites, by quite possibly the greatest band of all time:

Nice Video, Shame About the Song - Lufthansa Terminal

Let's spend our honeymoon in East Berlin
And though like lemmings, we will never swim
The devil's lunar craft makes waves in time
My Asian brother says, "spare me a dime"

Nice video, shame about the song
Nice video, shame about the song

Subconscious prejudice - a way of life
'cause all the citizens of sin are rife
Our friends are castaways - the ship went down
The storm clouds gather in and statesmen drown

Nice video, shame about the song
Nice video, shame about the song

By the river of blood, the children cry
Their evil's ruined by an alibi
The cruel sea, oh the heartless Earth
Oh, this must mean something to me

Nice video, shame about the song
Nice video, shame about the song (oh oh oh)
Nice video, shame about the song (oh oh oh)
Nice video, shame about the song (oh oh oh)
Nice video (nice video), shame about the song (shame about the song)
Nice video, shame about the song (oh oh oh)
Nice video, shame about the song (oh oh oh)
 
Lufthansa Terminal were actually made up of the cast of Not the Nine O' Clock News, so their 'greatest ever' status is ever so slightly tounge in cheek.

It is a very funny video.:D
 
Cradle of Love
Kelly Willis

Baby you look tired
And baby, you look beat
Seems like you been working
Eight days a week

Baby, take a break from
All you've been thinking of
Come into my cradle of love

Baby, let me hold you
And rock your cares away
Put aside your troubles
And the ending of the day

'Cause when we lie together
I fit you like a glove
Come into my cradle of love

Down in the valley
You can lose your name
All your sorrow and your pain

Dark, warm waters
They can heal you
And make you
All brand new again

So baby come on over
And lean your head on me
Here in my arms now
Is where you're meant to be

Baby, take advantage
Of all I've got to give
Come into my cradle of love

Down in the valley
You can lose your name
All your sorrow and your pain

Dark, warm waters
They can heal you
And make you
All brand new again

So baby come on over
And lean your head on me
Come into my cradle of love
Baby, let me be your cradle of love
Oh baby, come into my cradle of love
 
Spanish Castle Magic - Jimi Hendrix Experience

It's very far away,
Its takes about half a day
To get there, if we travel by my a..... dragonfly

No it's not in Spain,
But all the same,
You know,
It's a groovy name
And the winds just right.

Hang on, My Darling,
Hang on if you want to go
You know it's a really groovy place
And it's just a little bit of Spanish Castle Magic

The clouds are really low, and they overflow,
With cotton candy
And the battle grounds,
red and brown

But it's all in your mind,
Don't think your time,
On bad things,
Just float your little mind around,
Look out!

Hang on, my Darling, Yeah
Hang on if you want to go
It puts everything else on the shelf
With just a little bit of Spanish Castle Magic
Just a little bit of daydream here and there.

Hang on, My Darling, Yeah
Hang on if you want to go
It puts everything else on the shelf
With just a little bit of Spanish Castle Magic

Just a little bit of daydream here and there...
 
Like a Cloud
Boy Hits Car
Bot Hits Car [1999]

And you will heal yourself when the rain begins to fall.
Feel the fire
Burning inside us all.
Remove me
For going in unchained.
Blow away for yourself and gather again.
And, listen to the conversations of the sea.
Inside us all
There's a quiet beach.
If we fall into ourselves we will become free.
I myself could use a little clarity.

I am so full of love.
I am so full of hate.
I am so full of these feelings
That turn me every which way.

I am so full of you.
I am so full of me.
I am so full of these words
That don't tell her a ****ing thing.

I am so full of love.
I am so full of hate.
I am so full of these feelings
That turn me every which way.

Then I opened up my mouth.
I'm a cloud.
And these words they seldom come out.
When I looked into her eyes I cared enough to wonder why
She'd want a cloud that's ****ing around.

But I feel it's time to say goodbye to fear.
And feel the fury of these tears
As they run down my face
I can feel her so far away.

'Cause I am a cloud.
And I am so afraid.

I am so full of love.
I am so full of hate.
I am so full of these feelings
That turn me every which way.

So don't you come and gather at me in this haze.
I sit at home and feel the sun's daze.
I should tell me not to little everyday.
I blow away remaining unfazed.

When I feel the there's something crawling out of me
I'm just a cloud watching the moon rise.

These mother****ers stepped on me,
Tried to **** me from behind.

'Cause I am a cloud.
And I am so afraid.

And I... I am.
So... full of love.

I am so full of love.
I am so full of hate.
I am so full of these feelings
That turn me every which way.

I am so full of you.
I am so full of me.
I am so full of these words
That don't tell her a ****ing thing.

I am so full of love.
I am so full of hate.
I am so full of these feelings
That turn me every which way.

I am... so full of love.
Love!

I am so full of love.
I am so full of hate.
I am so full of love.
I am so full of...
 
Suspicious Minds - Elvis Presley

We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much baby
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds

So, if an old friend I know
Drops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?
Here we go again
Asking where I've been
You can't see these tears are real
I'm crying
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And be can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds

Oh let our love survive
Or dry the tears from your eyes
Let's don't let a good thing die
When honey, you know
I've never lied to you
Mmm yeah, yeah
 
Hey, one of my favorite threads is still going since last Fall! I mentioned this thread in my 1st OT post in reply to Becka's note, and she's got a song here on this page! :beer:
 
From a Distance - Bette Midler

From distance the world look round and real
And the snow-capped mountain's while
From a distance the ocean meets the stream
And the eagel takes to flight
From a distance there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
It's the voice of hope
It's the voice of peace
It's the voice of every man
From a distance we're all having love
I know one is in me
Ans there are no guns no guns and no decease
No hungry mounth to feed

From a distance we are instruments
Marching in the commom land
Playing songs of hope, playing songs of peace
They're the songs of every man

God is watching us, god is watching us
God is watching us from a distance
From a distance you look like my friend
Even though we are at world

From a distance I just can not comprehend
What all this fighting is for

From a distance there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
And it's the hope of hopes
It's the love of loves
It's the heart of every man
It's the hope of hopes, it's the love of loves
This is love from every man

You've Got To Hide Your Love Away - The Beatles

Here I stand head in hand,
turn my face to the wall.
If she's gone I can't go on,
feelin' two-foot small.

Everywhere people stare,
each and every day.
I can see them laugh at me,
and I hear them say:

Hey you've got to hide your love away.
Hey you've got to hide your love away.

How could I even try,
I can never win.
Hearing them, seeing them,
in the state I'm in.

How could she say to me,
love will find a way.
Gather round all you clowns,
let me hear you say:

Hey you've got to hide your love away.
Hey you've got to hide your love away.

Shimmer - Fuel

She calls me from the cold
Just when i was low, feeling short of stable
All that she intends
And all she keeps inside, isn't on the label
Ahe says shes ashamed
And can she take me for a while
And can i be a friend, we'll forget the past
But maybe i'm not able
And i break at the bend


We're here and now,
Will we ever be again
Cause i have found
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade
Away again

She dreams a champagne dream
Strawberry surprise, pink linen and white paper
Lavender and cream
Fields of butterflies, reality escapes her
She says that love is for fools that fall behind
And i'm somewhere in between
I never really know
A killer from a saviour
'Til i break at the bend

We're here and now,
Will we ever be again
Cause i have found
All that shimmers in this world is sure to fade
Away again

Its too far away for me to hold
Its too far away.....

Guess i'll let it go

Now I realise what you mean!
It was a classic.

Life After Death
By KING DIAMOND

Friday night

Four shadows heading for the dark
Four shadows heading for the past
Four shadows heading for the graves in the wooded maze
Four shadows looking for the place without a trace

Midnight and they're here, midnight

The old burial ground..is part of the estate
Hidden by the heavy trees..where Jean le Noir he sleeps

The shadows move
There're here to feed the dead..the shadows move

Cause there is life after death
Be patient and you will see
Cause there is life after death
Be patient and you will see
Oh it must never end..never end..no

Midnight and there're here, midnight

Doctor le Croix, he's a voodoo sorcerer
Madame Sarita, she's got the snake in her
And Lula Chevalier, she's the girl that no one ever sees
Salem the servant, he belongs to the estate

The shadows move
Ther're here to feed the dead...the shadows move

The Lafayettes are unaware..their butler Salem, he is here
Voodoo has been his life..Voodoo cuts deep like a knife

The shadows move
Ther're here to feed the dead...the shadows move

Cause there is life after death
Be patient and you will see
Cause there is life after death
Be patient and you will see
Oh it must never end..never end

Midnight and there're here, midnight

Midnight.....Life after death.....
 
Iron Eagle
By JAG PANZER

Throughout the ages war has brought forth change
A promise for our children's sake
Tyrants and their visions build us walls of fear
The price of these walls are lives at stake

A change of seasons causes wills to bend
A rising of the populations hand
One glance at freedom begins a raging fire
Uniting every race throughout the land

(IRON)
Forged in fire
(EAGLE)
Flying free
It's presence brings forth victory
(IRON)
Forged in fire
(EAGLE)
Flying free
It's power commands respect
IRON EAGLE

Condemned to silence a lifetime full of tears
Regrets forever scarring empty souls
Cursed by a past that no man should have to bear
Evict the madman, regain control

One heart, one mind
We leave the past behind
One heart, one voice
We have made our choice to fly

Up from the ashes springs life anew
Shedding the skin of repression and remorse
Renew the vision of union hand in hand
Raise the flags let the IRON EAGLE soar !
 
Take To The Sky
By JAG PANZER

Orders and runway cleared, given the green to go
Instruments glowing amber red
Light up the turbine engines, they scream and start their burn
G-forces push my heart deep into my chest

Take to the sky, Ten miles high
Stealthily we fly, Take to the sky

Upon reaching altitude earth seems so small below
Silent, invisible black death from above

Laser guided, automated, precise computer control
The enemy blind and unprotected
Pinpoint accuracy certain death sent down below
No mercy, no regret for the unknowing foe

Mission completed heading for home
Objective neutralized
One more kill, one more score for our side...
 
Cold Is The Blade (And The Heart That Wields It)
By JAG PANZER

On the battlefield we fight with all our might
Valor and honor is our right
The bloody battlefield where men and sons have tried
To stand for what is good and what is right

Only the steel will win the day
Cold sword of the brave (Cold is the blade)
Pure hearts bring us to truth
Is it the heart of the brave or the cold of the blade

The hand of death has choked me many times
I've denied the reaper of this prize
The chill of death freezes me at night
I entrust the mighty steel held high

I've stood upon the moors, looked over many lands
That were conquered by the brave and their might
Searching for the answer, the riddle of the steel
What will win the day and take the fight

The power within us stronger than any steel
Wages battle and brings us peace
Souls of our fathers, their blood we carry on
We meet again our final release
 
Holy War
By MANOWAR

I have seen the fire
Of the thousands suns pass by
While blasphemers spread their Gospel
Bearing false witness
Now we rise
All ye children of the wild
Fists like hammers fill the air
Vast legions all immortal
Smash the stillness everywhere

Holy War

Holy
We are fighting, fighting a Holy War
Holy War
See us fly on winds of doom
Holy War
Baptized in Fire and Steel
Holy War
For the end we bring is soon
Holy War
Now face the storm
A Holy War

Brothers of metal know no masters
Metal's our religion
Take it to the grave
Rulers of the earth
Our dawn of glory
All reborn we live again
Hold true, ye sacred army
Our last battle is at hand
Sweep this dogs from our kingdom
Bless this ground, our holy land

Holy War

Holy
We are fighting, fighting a Holy War
Holy War
See us fly on winds of doom
Holy War
Baptized in Fire and Steel
Holy War
For the end we bring is soon
Holy War
Now face the storm
A Holy War
 
The Crown And The Ring (Lament Of The Kings)
By MANOWAR

From a battle I've come
To a battle I ride
Blazing up to the sky
Chains of fate
Hold a fiery stride
I'll see you again when I die

High and mighty alone we are kings
Whirlwinds of fire we ride
Providence brought us the crown and the ring
Covered with blood and our pride

Heroes await me
My enemies ride fast
Knowing not this ride's their last
Saddle my horse as I drink my last ale
Bow string and steel will prevail

High and mighty alone we are kings
Whirlwinds of fire we ride
Providence brought us the crown and the ring
Covered with blood and our pride

Odin I await thee
Your true son am I
I hail you now as I die
I pledge you my sword and to no man I kneel
Ours is the Kingdom Of Steel

High and mighty alone we are kings
Whirlwinds of fire we ride
Providence brought us the crown and the ring
Covered with blood and our pride
