Song Lyrics

[Juniper]

The Beauty Of Gray : Live


if I told you he was your brother
we could reminisce
then you would go about your day
if I said you ought to give him
some of your water
you'd shake your canteen and walk away

the perception that divides you from him
is a lie
for some reason you never asked why
this is not a black and white world
you can't afford to believe in your side

this is not a black and white world
to be alive
I say the colors must swirl
and I believe
that maybe today
we will all get to appreciate

the beauty of gray

if I told you that she was your mother
we could analyze the situation and be gone
if I said you ought to give her
some of your water
your eyes would light up like the dawn

the perception that divides you from her
is a lie
for some reason you never asked why
this is not a black and white world
you can't afford to believe in your side

this is not a black and white world
to be alive
I say the colors must swirl
and I believe
that maybe today
we will all get to appreciate

the beauty of gray

look into your eyes
no daylight
new day now

[Bloodstalker]

Sick Love Song-Motley Crue

Wake me up in the morning glory
Can't get straight 'til I have the story
How do you mark your territory

When your trash becomes your treasure
Your immorals are my pleasure
Lose your mind at your leisure

Simply said, you're complicated
Understand you're overrated
More you talk the less you seem to say

We are miserable
You are drivin' me insane
This could be your sick love song
This could be your sign that things are going wrong
This could be your sick love song
Sick love song
Sick love song

Chew me up like a meat grinder
You're cold-blooded like a sidewinder
I don't need another reminder

Can't understand normal thinkin'
Drive a sober man to drinkin'
In fact, you're drivin' me straight to Hell

We are miserable
You are drivin' me insane
This could be your sick love song
This could be your sign that things are going wrong
This could be your sick love song
Sick love song
Sick love song

The more you inhale
The more that you breathe
The more that you make me want to scream

This could be your sick love song
This could be your sign that things are going wrong
This could be your sick love song
Sick love song
Sick love song

This could be your sick love song
This could be your reason not to get along
This could be your sick love song
Sick love song
Sick love song

[Jaypee]

Sleep - Dragonaut

Ride the dragon toward the crimson eye
Flap the wings under Mars red sky
The reptile pushes itself out into space
Leaving behind the human race

Swim inside the solar seas
The Nebula cries out to me
Passing where I've gone before
I fly on through the crimson door

Ride the dragon toward the crimson eye
Flap the wings under Mars red sky





Sleep - Aquarian

Trapped in a world under leagues of ocean
The clergy arrives with a magic potion

I put my mouth into the cup of potion
Sip down the nectar and escape the ocean

Reaching for the sun, leave Atlantis, escape the sea
Fly into the sky, leave behind Atlantean key
Reaching for the sun, leave Atlantis, escape the sea
Fly into the sky, leave behind Atlantean key

Escape the sea with ascending motion
I touch the sun and return to ocean

[Tamerlane]

Doctor Worm - They Might be Giants

They call me Dr. Worm.
Good morning. how are you? I'm Dr. Worm.
I'm interested in things.
I'm not a real doctor,
But I am a real worm;
I am an actual worm.
I live like a worm.

I like to play the drums.
I think I'm getting good,
But I can handle criticism.
I'll show you what I know,
And you can tell me if you think I'm getting better on the drums.
I'll leave the front un-locked 'cause I can't
Hear the doorbell

When I get into it I can't tell if you are
Watching me twirling the stick.
When I give the signal, my friend
Rabbi vole will play the solo

Some day somebody else besides me will
Call me by my stage name, they will
Call me dr worm.
Good morning how are you, I'm dr worm
I'm interested in things.
I'm not a real doctor,
But I am a real worm;
I am an actual worm.
I live like a worm.

I like to play the drums.
I think I'm getting good,
But I can handle criticism.
I'll show you what I know,
And you can tell me if you think I'm getting better on the drums.
I'm not a real doctor,
But they call me Dr. Worm.

Devil Doll - Dies Irae

OYEZ! OYEZ!

THIS IS A GALA EVENING!

VEILED ANGELS
CROWD THE THEATRE
TO SEE A PLAY
OF HOPES AND FEARS.

MOTLEY MIMES
TOSS ABOUT THE SCENE
HELD UP BY THREADS
SINKING IN THE DEEP.

ONSTAGE
IN A CORNER
HIDDEN BEHIND MYSELF
I HOLD MY BREATH:
IN THE AIRLESS AIR
SHARDS OF CRUSHED RAINBOWS
FILL MY LIMBO,
PLACED SOMEWHERE
BETWEEN WORLD AND TOYS.

"DO YOU WANT TO PLAY WITH ME?"

IN THE SOUNDTRACK OF MY SURVIVAL
THE FURIOUS SMALL HAMMERS
FULLY UPROOTED
FROM THEIR KEY-SHAPED
SKELETON
CRUELLY EXPLORE
EVERY CRANIAL PATH
ALWAYS CLOSER...
ALWAYS MORE PAINFUL!

THE SHARKS' FIN
IS SIGHTING STRAIGHT FOR ME:
CREATURES OR SPIRITS
I BEG YOU!

MAYBE IT'S THE DELIRIUM
OF MY MORBID RATIO
OR THAT VOICE THAT LIES
DEEP IN MY INTIMATE SELF
TO ALLOW THIS SWIMMING
THROUGH THE LYMPHS OF VICTIMS
WHILE DARK REIGNS OVER
THE SONS OF PUTREFACTION!

FATHER OF SONS ALL DEFORMED
THAT LIKE A GHASTLY STREAM
SURGE OUT
THROUGH THE RUSTED GATES OF TIME
-A DEAF DUMB EYELESS THRONG
LAUGHING FOREVER
BUT SMILING NO MORE
THE GOD ABSENT.
OR STILL.

"HAEC VERBA AUDI: VITAM AETERNAM!"

LIKE THE SHAMAN
WHO INGRATIATES HIMSELF
WITH THE DEITY
OF THE ANIMAL HE HUNTS
SEEKING POSSESSION
WITH THE SPIRIT OF THE BEAST:
SO THE INNOCENTS,
PERVADED WITH THE SPIRIT
OF THE GREAT PREDATOR
-PRINCEPS HUIUS MUNDI-
THOUGH BURNT ON OUR PYRES
WILL TRANSCEND TIME
SOARING OVER
PHYSICAL EXTINCTION.

DOMINE TE VOCO
IUSTUM MIHI OSTENDE UNICUM
TALIS MONSTRIS OB SPECTACULUM
STUPEFACTUS EGO MORIAR...

...ON MEURT A MOINS!

HOOKED HANDS
STRETCHED OUT ABOVE
IN THE ULTIMATE ENDEAVOUR
TO CLUTCH AN ATOM
THAT DOES NOT SINK.

IN THE DAY OF WRATH
THE HUNGRY MARIONETTES
WAKE UP - COME ALIVE
WHILE BIRDS OF SOUL
USHER IN
THE RAYS OF CHAOS..

"FATAL INFECTION... FAR ALL!
EPIDEMY! EPIDEMY!"

DIES IRAE!

FEEDING ON FRAGMENTS OF GANGRENE
TEETH CRUMBLE
TOES FALL APART.
WE CRAWL LIKE EARTH-WORMS
THAT RATS AND BIRDS FIGHT OVER.

SCORED BY SILENCE
SPIRITS CREEP
OUT OF THE SECRET NOOKS:
SCATTER IN THE STREETS
EACH ONE
CHOOSING HIS OWN
BELOVED PREY.

AMONG THE TREES,
HOLDING HER OUT MY HANDS
"WHAT ABOUT A WALK?"
I AVOID THE SHARP SPLINTERS
OF HER SWEET SHATTERED GAZE.
STEP BY STEP
INTO THE LABYRINTHS OF DOUBT
EVERY SHELTER: A TRAP.
WHILE DISTRESSES I WITNESS
THE TWILIGHT OF MY HEART
YOU SPREAD AROUND DROPS OF LIGHT
UNAWARE OF THE RUSTLE
OF INVISIBLE SYLLABLES:
"YOU WILL NOT GET OUT
OF ETERNAL PEACE!"
AND THE VIRGIN BLADE KISSES,
-FREEING-
YOUR WHITE THROAT.

NO PAIN
I'M QUITE SURE
SHE FEELS NO PAIN!
THE VOICE
STILL THROBS:
"EACH MAN
KILLS
THE THING
HE LOVES!"
(INCUBUS)

IN THE PURPLE FLASHES
OF THE BLAZING BLOOD
SLOWLY WE VANISH
IN AND AROUND OURSELVES.
CELLS OF SPIRIT DISSOLVE
BIT BY BIT...

"YOU WILL NOT GET OUT OF ETERNAL PEACE!
YOU WILL NOT GET OUT OF ETERNAL PEACE!"

SUDDENLY THE VOlD
FILLS YOUR FIRST BORN
VIBRATION.
JUST THE STILL SPLENDOUR
OF YOUR ICY WARDS ENDURES.
I SEE YOU THROUGH MY TEARS,
TEARS THAT NOBODY EVER WILL DRY...

"YOU WILL NOT GET OUT OF ETERNAL PEACE!
YOU WILL NOT GET OUT OF ETERNAL
PEACE/KILL/SLEEP/MURDER/DEATH.

THE LAST WORD OF MY SCRIPT
IS NOW DECLAIMED.
TIME IS OVER,
AND THERE'S NO WHISPERING PROMPTER
TO EASE MY SCENIC SOLITUDE.
THE CRAWLING SHAPE INTRUDES
AND WHILE I OPEN MY ARMS
IT SEIZES ME IN ITS JAWS!
"THIS IS MY BODY, WHICH IS SACRIFICED FOR YOU!"

("INTO THY HANDS I COMMEND MY SPIRIT...")
OUT. OUT ARE THE LIGHTS. OUT ALL.
AND OVER EACH QUIVERING FORM
THE CURTAIN COMES DOWN
LIKE A FUNERAL PALL.
WITH A RUSH OF STORM,
WHILE ANGELS
-PALE AND SILENT-
RISING AND UNVEILING
AFFIRM
THAT WE ARE WITNESSING
THE TRAGEDY
"MAN"
AND ITS HERO IS....

THE CONQUEROR WORM.

YET I WOULD LOSE NO STING
WOULD WISH NO TORTURE LESS;
THE MORE THAT ANGUISH RACKS
THE EARLIER IT WILL BLESS.
AND ROBED IN FIRES OF HELL
OR BRIGHT IN HEAVENLY SHINE,
IF IT BUT HERALD DEATH
THE VISION IS DIVINE.

THE STILL LOOK
CURLED UP IN THE STRAIT-JACKET.
FADING OF TEARS.
BEHIND EVERY KISS:
A POTENTIAL JUDAS.
DESIRE OF BITING
THE VITAL ARTERY
MINE
OR OF THE FIRST PASSER-BY
INSECTS WITH LEGS
TORN OFF
MY NAILS ONE BY ONE
SHARDS OF GLASS
IN EYES OF CAT
SMILE. OR SIMPLY: IVORY.
GOOD NIGHT.
PLUG DISCONNECTED.
SOME FLOWERS
IN THE FIRST MONTH
THEN JUST:
EARTH.

[Magrus]

My room mates got me hooked on some punk. I like this band, and this song I can't help but enjoy. They lyrics are a little screwy. I found them as just a block paragraph. So, I just seperated each of the parts after the ".", it seemed the fasted way to make it look just a bit better.

"Cooking Wine" by Alkaline Trio

sorry i'm late.
i was out spoiling my liver.
i couldn't wait... the sun was up for far too long today.
and i can't see straight, but the two of you look awfully pretty.
and i couldn't wait... been awake for far too long today.
and is it strong enough to burn away the cooking wine?
and i'm just tired enough, if i closed my eyes i'll sleep for days, i'll sleep for days... sorry i'm late.
i was out spoiling my liver.
i couldn't wait... the sun was up for far too long today.
and i can't see straight, but the two of you look awfully pretty... you're <expletive deleted> beautiful.
and is it strong enough to burn away the cooking wine?
and i'm just tired enough, if i close my eyes i'll sleep for days, i'll sleep for days...

@Grimar: Please lay of the caps next time

"Tired of Being Sorry" - Ringside

I don’t know why
You want to follow me tonight
When the rest of the world
With whom I’ve crossed and I’ve quarreled
Let’s me down so
For a thousand reasons that I know
To share forever the unrest
With all the demons I possess
Beneath the silver moon

Maybe you were right
But baby I was lonely
I don’t want to fight
I’m tired of being sorry

Chandler and Van Nuys
With all the vampires and their brides
We’re all bloodless and blind
And longing for a life
Beyond the silver moon

Maybe you were right
But baby I was lonely
I don’t want to fight
I’m tired of being sorry
I’m standing in the street
Crying out for you
No one sees me
But the silver moon

So far away – so outer space
I’ve trashed myself – I’ve lost my way
I’ve got to get to you
I’ve got to get to you

Maybe you were right
But baby I was lonely
I don’t want to fight
I’m tired of being sorry
I’m standing in the street
Crying out for you
No one sees me
But the silver moon

[Denethorn]

Creed - Inside Us All
Creed weren't as massive here as they were in the US, and I've heard they were a love or loathe band... but this is one of their older style tracks, before they were despised for becoming too mainstream

When I'm all alone
And no one else is there
Waiting by the phone
To remind me
I'm still here
When shadows paint the scenes
Where spotlights used to fall
And I'm left wondering
Is it really worth it all?

(Chorus)
There's a peace inside us all
Let it be your friend
It will help you carry on
In the end
There's a peace inside us all

Life can hold you down
When you're not looking up
Can't you hear the sound?
Hearts beating out loud
Although the names change
Inside we're all the same
Why can't we tear down these walls?
To show the scars we're covering

(Chorus)

There's a peace
There's a peace inside us all
Let it be Oh, can't it be your friend?

[Darth Zenemij]

Shine On You Crazy Diamond Pink Floyd


Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom,
blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!





Nobody knows where you are, how near or how far.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Pile on many more layers and I’ll be joining you there.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
And we’ll bask in the shadow of yesterday’s triumph,
And sail on the steel breeze.
Come on you boy child, you winner and loser,
Come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine!

[arno_v]

@Magrus: LOL, I was listening to the album that song is one quite a lot a couple weeks ago, and everytime I heard the line "I was out spoiling my liver" I couldn't help thinking of you...

[Oscuro_Sol]

I finally found this song. Only found the Ray Charles version on Media Player, though...

ELEANOR RIGBY -- The Beatles

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding
has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by
the door
Who is it for?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from ?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong ?

Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will
hear
No one comes near.
Look at him working. Darning his socks in the night when there's
nobody there
What does he care?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her
name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from
the grave
No one was saved

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

[Jaypee]

The Black League - We Die Alone





If you feel Emptiness
If you feel Hollow
If you are lost and you don't want to find yourself
Deserted streets within that Ghost Town of your Nightmares
You're in the Limbo - Hollow Ground, Shadowland

Nothing more, nothing less
Nothing new under the sun

All alone, in the Shadowland, Shadowland, now
All alone, in the Shadowland, Shadowland, now, now
We die alone
In the Shadowland, Shadowland, now, now
All alone
In the Shadowland
And Hollow, hollow Ground

If you're a shadow of what you have used to be
If you don't know yourself. If you don't care
If Nihil, Naught and Nil are all that you can feel now
You're in the Limbo - Hollow Ground, shadowland

Nothing more, nothing less
Nothing new under the sun

All alone, in the Shadowland, Shadowland, now
All alone, in the Shadowland, Shadowland, now, now
We die alone
In the Shadowland, Shadowland, now, now
All alone
In the Shadowland
And Hollow, hollow Ground

Nothing new and nothing true and nothing pure
and nothing good on Hollow Ground

[Magrus]

@ Grimar, heh...that's funny. I thought of me with that song, but thats me you know? Funny someone else thought of me with it too!

Here's another, I loved this one when I first heard it. I was shouting "What song is this!" to my roommate one night at 3 am while he was sleeping. He was sooo not happy with me waking up, but then excited I liked the song.

"Jaked On Green Beers"


It's been a long time since I've been close to you
It's been a long time since I've been sad.
It's been a while since I've really spent time with you
Wish I could take back the times that I had.
The only thing that you ever really did for me
Was make me oh so miserable.
And the hope that I never see your face again
Is anything but questionable.

I hope this is goodbye.
I hope this is goodbye.

There was a time when I thought you were a friend to me
I think those times I was probably just drunk.
And if they offered a test about being a good friend
I'd put money down that you'd surely flunk.
The only thing that you ever really took from me
Were my records to sell them for dope.
Now all I have left is this heart in my chest
And my happiness helping me cope

I hope this is goodbye [x4]

It's been a long time since I've been close to you.
It's been a long time since I've been sad.
It's been a while since I've really spent time with you.
Wish I could take back the times that I had.
The only thing that you ever really did for me
Was make me oh so miserable.
And the hope that I never see your face again
Is anything but questionable.
There was a time that I thought you were a friend to me
I think those times I was probably just drunk.
And if they offered a test about being a good friend
I'd put money down that you'd surely flunk.
The only thing that you ever really took from me were my records to
Hawk them for dope.
Now all I have left is this heart in my chest,
Your dishonesty helping me cope.

I hope this is goodbye.
I hope this is goodbye....

All right, where's my smack?"

I was listening to these tonight, and found them to be terribly funny and sad having grown up in the area of America I did. More the second than the first, but they go together I suppose.

[Oscuro_Sol]

I LOVE this song! Not only is Queen one of my all-time favourite bands, but these lyrics made me laugh... why, almost hysterically. You better watch out. I'm more than SLIGHTY mad.

I'M GOING SLIGHTLY MAD -- Queen

When the outside temperature rises
And the meaning is oh so clear
One thousand and one yellow daffodils
Begin to dance in front of you - oh dear
Are they trying to tell you something?
You're missing that one final screw
You're simply not in the pink my dear
To be honest you haven't got a clue
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened - happened
It finally happened - ooh oh
It finally happened - I'm slightly mad
Oh dear!
I'm one card short of a full deck
I'm not quite the shilling
One wave short of a shipwreck
I'm not at my usual top billing
I'm coming down with a fever
I'm really out to sea
This kettle is boiling over
I think I'm a banana tree
Oh dear, I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened, happened
It finally happened uh huh
It finally happened I'm slightly mad - oh dear!
I'm knitting with only one needle
Unravelling fast its true
I'm driving only three wheels these days
But my dear how about you?
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened
It finally happened oh yes
It finally happened
I'm slightly mad!
Just very slightly mad!
And there you have it!

[Magrus]

@Kitten, wonderful, I've never heard that one before, but it fits you.

This song, I've been listening to tonight all sorts of drunk and giggly. These guys are coming to town next saturday and I want to go see them for once in my life!

"Cheap Sunglasses" by ZZ Top

When you get up in the morning and the light is hurt your head
The first thing you do when you get up out of bed
Is hit that street a-runnin' and try to meet the masses
And go get yourself some cheap sunglasses
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

Spied a little thing and I followed her all night
In a funky fine levis and her sweater's kind of tight
She had a west coast strut that was sweet as molases
But what really knocked me out was her cheap sunglasses
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

Now go out and get yourself some thick black frames
With the glass so dark thay won't even know your name
And the choice is up to you cause they come in two classes
Rhinestone shades and cheap sunglasses
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

Heavy Mental Overload - Griffin

The TV screen is flashing,
the horror's everywhere
The whole world comes down crashing,
and no one seems to care

A thousand marionettes are dancing by the
strings......
A new kind of disease, is breeding in
mankind
The virus is called ignorance,
and everyone turns blind

A million marionettes are dancing by the
strings......

The death bell starts to ring
It chimes across the the land
A new world in its spring
I wonder where it ends

The cries of all in agony, they're never to
be free

Heavy mental overload, they're gathered
here in me

A million marionettes are dancing by the
strings......

The death bell starts to ring
It chimes across the the land
A new world in its spring
I wonder where it ends
Burn!

The virus is called ignorance,
and everyone turns blind
Greed and violation in every corner of the
world
Only one solution,
the whole thing's got to burn
The death bell starts to ring
It chimes across the the land
A new world in its spring
I wonder where it ends

[Magrus]

One Bourbon, One Scotch, and One Beer

I was digging for the lyrics to this song, and found Wild Wild SYM as one of the top hits from google by typing in the title (with a minor spelling error ). I found that vastly amusing.

One Bourbon, One Scotch, and One Beer by George Thorogood (Orginally written by John Lee Hooker)

Wanna tell you a story,
about the house-man blues
I come home one Friday,
had to tell the landlady I'd-a lost my job
She said that don't confront me,
long as I get my money next Friday
Now next Friday come I didn't get the rent,
and out the door I went

So I goes to the landlady,
I said, "You let me slide?"
I'll have the rent for you in a month.
next I don't know
So said let me slide it on you know people,
I notice when I come home in the evening
She ain't got nothing nice to say to me,
but for five year she was so nice
Loh' she was lovy-dovy,
I come home one particular evening
The landlady said, "You got the rent money yet?",
I said, "No, can't find no job"
Therefore I ain't got no money to pay the rent
She said "I don't believe you're tryin' to find no job"
Said "I seen you today you was standin' on a corner,
leaning up against a post"
I said "But I'm tired, I've been walkin' all day"
She said "That don't confront me,
long as I get my money next Friday"
Now next Friday come I didn't have the rent,
and out the door I went

So I go down the streets,
down to my good friend's house
I said "Look man I'm outdoors you know,
can I stay with you maybe a couple days?"
He said "Let me go and ask my wife"
He come out of the house,
I could see it in his face
I know that was no
He said "I don't know man, ah she kinda funny, you know"
I said "I know, everybody funny, now you funny too"
So I go back home
I tell the landlady I got a job, I'm gonna pay the rent
She said "Yeah?" I said "Oh yeah"
And then she was so nice,
loh' she was lovy-dovy
So I go in my room, pack up my things and I go,
I slip on out the back door and down the streets I go
She a-howlin' about the front rent, she'll be lucky to get any back rent,
she ain't gonna get none of it
So I stop in the local bar you know people,
I go to the bar, I ring my coat, I call the bartender
Said "Look man, come down here", he got down there
So what you want?

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
Well I ain't seen my baby since I don't know when,
I've been drinking bourbon, whiskey, scotch and gin
Gonna get high man I'm gonna get loose,
need me a triple shot of that juice
Gonna get drunk don't you have no fear
I want one bourbon, one scotch and one beer
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer

But I'm sitting now at the bar,
I'm getting drunk, I'm feelin' mellow
I'm drinkin' bourbon, I'm drinkin' scotch, I'm drinkin' beer
Looked down the bar, here come the bartender
I said "Look man, come down here"
So what you want?

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
No I ain't seen my baby since the night before last,
gotta get a drink man I'm gonna get gassed
Gonna get high man I ain't had enough,
need me a triple shot of that stuff
Gonna get drunk won't you listen right here,
I want one bourbon, one shot and one beer
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer

Now by this time I'm plenty high,
you know when your mouth a-getting dry you're plenty high
Looked down the bar I say to my bartender
I said "Look man, come down here", he got down there
So what you want this time?
I said "Look man, a-what time is it?"
He said "The clock on the wall say three o'clock
Last call for alcohol, so what you need?"

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
No I ain't seen my baby since a nigh' and a week,
gotta get drunk man till I can't even speak
Gonna get high man listen to me,
one drink ain't enough Jack you better make it three
I wanna get drunk I'm gonna make it real clear,
I want one bourbon, one scotch and one beer
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer

Iced Earth - A Question of Heaven

The time is close now, the end is near
My walk through the valley, trails of fear
I feel empty, my penance overdue, I guess it's too late now
To be with you
I'm extremely frightened of what will surely be
I sold myself, the death of me
I know you can't forgive me
I know I'm on my own, I've betrayed you
I walk alone

What exactly is the meaning of this
Just pawns in your twisted game
Severe pain for the lie I'm livin'
For a love I never could betray

Bridge
Question me not say the lord unto thee
You have chosen your own fate and your own destiny
Denied of this life is what you are to be
You have chosen your own fate and your own destiny

Lord I pound my fists at you
Won't you just let me die
Would I not suffer enough
No inner peace no after life

Bridge
Question me not say the lord unto thee
You have chosen your own fate and your own destiny
Denied of this life is what you are to be
You have chosen your own fate and your own destiny

I did what I thought was right
All for the love of my life
I know it's sad but true
Something is very wrong
Condemned to suffer so long
For a love so true

The question that lies within
Is so hard to understand
It still tears at me
And in my dying breath
My heart holds no regrets
I wouldn't change a thing

My spirit begins to rise into the heavenly skies
Just to be shunned away by you
Now all I want is to die, no streets of gold in the sky
And I wash my hands of you

Bridge
Rising to the heavens light
Just to plea for death
Just to be denied- (repeats until the song fades/finishes)
