The Truth Beneath The Rose
Give me strength to face the truth, the doubt within my soul
No longer I can justify the bloodshed in his name
Is it a sin to seek the truth, the truth beneath the rose?
Pray with me so I will find the gate to Heaven's door
I believed it would justify the means
It had a hold over me
Blinded to see the cruelty of the beast
It is the darker side of me
The veil of my dreams deceived all I have seen
Forgive me for what I have been
Forgive me my sins
Pray for me cause I have lost my faith in holy wars
Is paradise denied to me cause I can't take no more
Has darkness taken over me, consumed my mortal soul
All my virtues sacrificed, can Heaven be so cruel?
I believed it would justify the means
It had a hold over me
Blinded to see the cruelty of the beast
It is the darker side of me
The veil of my dreams deceived all I have seen
Forgive me for what I have been
Forgive me my sins
I'm hoping, I'm praying
I won't get lost between two worlds
For all I have seen the truth lies in between
Give me the strength to face the wrong that I have done
Now that I know the darkest side of me
How can blood be our salvation
And justify the pain that we have caused throughout the times
Will I learn what's truly sacred?
Will I redeem my soul, will truth set me free?
Blinded to see the cruelty of the beast
It is the darker side of me
The veil of my dreams deceived all I have seen
Forgive me for what I have been
Forgive me my sins
(( Of course the song there reminded me of this... ))

The Briar and the Rose
I fell asleep down by the stream
And there I had the strangest dream
And down by Brennan's Glenn there grows
A briar and a rose
There's a tree in the forest and I don't know where
I built a nest out of your hair
And climbing up into the air
A briar and a rose
Well I don't know how long it's been
But I was born in Brennan's Glenn
And near the end of spring there grows
The briar and the rose
I picked the rose one early morn
I pricked my finger on a thorn
It had grown so close, it's winding wove
The briar around the rose
I tried to tear them both apart
I felt a bullet through my heart
And all dressed up in springs and clothes
The briar and the rose
And when I'm buried in my grave
Tell me so I may know
Your tears may fall to make love grow
The Briar and the rose
And when I'm buried and in my grave
Tell me so I may know
Your tears may fall to make love grow
The Briar and the roseBy Tom Waits

Return To Innocence
That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence.
Love
Devotion
Feeling
Emotion
Love
Devotion
Feeling
Emotion
Don't be afraid to be weak
Don't be too proud to be strong
Just look into your heart my friend
That will be the return to yourself
The return to innocence.
If you want, then start to laugh
If you must, then start to cry
Be yourself don't hide
Just believe in destiny.
Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence.
That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence.
Don't care what people say
Follow just your own way
Follow just your own way
Don't give up, don't give up
To return, to return to innocence.
If you want then laugh
If you must then cry
Be yourself don't hide
Just believe in destiny.

Black Rose
Tell me the legends of long ago
When the kings and queens
Would dance in the realm of the Black Rose
Play me the melodies I want to know
So I can teach my children, oh
Pray tell me the story of young Cuchulainn
How his eyes were dark his expression sullen
And how he'd fight and always won
And how they cried when he was fallen
Oh, tell me the story of the queen of this land
And how her sons died at her own hand
And how fools obey commands
Oh, tell me the legends of long ago
Where the mountains of Mourne
Come down to the sea
Will she no come back to me?
Will she no come back to me?
Oh Shenandoah, I hear you calling
Far away you rolling river
Roll down the mountain side
On down on, down go lassie go
Oh, tell me the legends of long ago
When the kings and queens
Would dance in the realms of the black rose
Play me the melodies so I might know
So I can tell my children, oh
My Roisin Dubh is my one and only true love
It was a joy that Joyce brought to me
While William Butler waits
And Oscar, he's going wild
Ah sure, Brendan where have you been?
Looking for a girl with green eyes
My dark Rosaleen is my only colleen
That Georgie knows best
But Van is the man
Starvation once again
Drinking whiskey in the jar
Synge's playboy of the Western world
As Shaw Sean I was born and reared there
Where the mountains of Mourne
Come down to the sea
Is such a long, long way from Tipperary

Otherworld Go now, if you want it
An otherworld awaits you
Don't you give up on it
You bite the hand that feeds you
All alone, cold fields you wander
Memories of it, cloud your sight
Fills your dreams, disturbs your slumber
Lost your way, a fallen knight
Hold now, aim is steady
An otherworld awaits you
One thousand years, you ready?
The otherworld, it takes you
Go into the sand, and the dust, and the sky
Go now, there's no better plan, than to do or to die
Free me, pray to the faith in the face of the light
Feed me, fill me with sin, and get ready to fight
You know you will
You know you will
You know it, you know it, you know it, you know it, that you will
You know it, you know it, you know it, you know it, that you will
You know you will...
Fight, fight, fight
Fight, fight, fight
Fight, fight, fight
Fight, fight, fight!
Hope dies, and you wander
The otherworld, it makes you
Dreams, they rip asunder
The otherworld, it hates you
Free now, ride up on it
Up to the heights, it takes you
Go now, if you want it
An otherworld awaits you ----Otherworld ( Jecht's battle theme from Final Fantasy 10 )

Håll om mig
Att vår värld behöver ha
Mera kärlek varje dag
Det vet både jag och du
Låt oss börja här och nu
Så håll om mig
Släpp inte taget om mig
Är som förhäxad av dig
Och jag vill ha dig
Kom och håll om mig nu
Ja kom närmare ett slag
Hör du mina andetag?
Blodet rusar vilt och hett
Ja på många skilda sätt
Så kom och håll om mig
Släpp inte taget om mig
Är som förhäxad av dig
Och jag vill ha dig
Kom och håll om mig nu
Pulsen slår, jag ser din blick
Åhh, jag är i ett hjälplöst skick
Jag kan bli räddad först om du
Ger mun-mot-mun-metoden nu
Så håll om mig
Släpp inte taget om mig
Är som förhäxad av dig
Och jag vill ha dig
Kom och håll om mig nu
Ja kom och håll om mig
Släpp inte taget om mig
Är som förhäxad av dig
Och jag vill ha dig
Kom och håll om mig nu
Är förlorad och förförd
Jag är skakad och berörd
Hjärtat slår så hårt
Låta bli dig blir för svårt
Och jag tror du ser
Att jag faller mer och mer
Håll om mig
Ja håll om mig
Släpp inte taget om mig
Är som förhäxad av dig
Och jag vill ha dig
Kom och håll om mig nu
Ja kom och håll om mig
Släpp inte taget om mig
Är som förhäxad av dig
Och jag vill ha dig
Kom och håll om mig nu
Kom och håll om mig
Släpp inte taget om mig
Och jag vill ha dig
Kom och håll om mig nu
( Translating it wouldn't be easy for or finding it since there's literal translations but not ones to follow to the song... so I'll let you find those in your own time wink The song is in Swedish. )

Philistine
Reaper Reaper, that's what people call me
Why? 'Cause they all DIE -
when I sing I end their lives
you act as though payback
makes you a nobleman is that a fact?
Well, you're a goddamn philistine (x2)
Requiem aeternam
Bullet right through the sternum
Lullaby to hell, babe
Reaper's got your name!
Margaret is Greek, you geek, it means a pearl
I'm a pure girl -
boys cannot crack this oyster shell
So go on, whip around that sword
like you're the best, it's such a bore
Another hero? Oh, please (x2)
Requiem aeternam
Reaper has come, sinner!
Thigh-high socks are my absolute territory
Go on and drool -
the otaku cannot resist
You think the fire in your eyes
makes you a tiger in disguise?
Dream on, you goddamn p***y!
Reaper Reaper, that's what people call me
Why? 'Cause they all DIE -

~The Reaper and the Flowers~
(Voices of the Night 1839)
There is a Reaper, whose name is Death,
And, with his sickle keen,
He reaps the bearded grain at a breath,
And the flowers that grow between.
"Shall I have naught that is fair?" saith he;
"Have naught but the bearded grain?
Though the breath of these flowers is sweet to me,
I will give them all back again."
He gazed at the flowers with tearful eyes,
He kissed their drooping leaves;
It was for the Lord of Paradise
He bound them in his sheaves.
"My Lord has need of these flowerets gay,"
The Reaper said, and smiled;
"Dear tokens of the earth are they,
Where He was once a child.
"They shall all bloom in fields of light,
Transplanted by my care,
And saints, upon their garments white,
These sacred blossoms wear."
And the mother gave, in tears and pain,
The flowers she most did love;
She knew she should find them all again
In the fields of light above.
Oh, not in cruelty, not in wrath,
The Reaper came that day;
'T was an angel visited the green earth,
And took the flowers away.
~HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW~
(Also Performed in Song by VAS)

Ok, back to work!! twisted
~DON'T FEAR THE REAPER~
All our times have come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain, we can be like they are
Come on baby, don't fear the reaper
Baby take my hand, don't fear the reaper
We'll be able to fly, don't fear the reaper
Baby I'm your man
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
Valentine is done
Here but now they're gone
Romeo and Juliet
Are together in eternity, Romeo and Juliet
40, 000 men and women everyday, Like Romeo and Juliet
40, 000 men and women everyday, Redefine happiness
Another 40, 000 coming everyday, We can be like they are
Come on baby, don't fear the reaper
Baby take my hand, don't fear the reaper
We'll be able to fly, don't fear the reaper
Baby I'm your man
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
Love of two is one
Here but now they're gone
Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn't go on
Then the door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew then disappeared
The curtains flew then he appeared, saying don't be afraid
Come on baby, and she had no fear
And she ran to him, then they started to fly
They looked backward and said goodby, she had become like they are
She had taken his hand, she had become like they are
Come on baby, don't fear the reaper
~Blue Öyster Cult~
***NOTE:
This was rumored to be about suicide, but it actually deals with the inevitability of death and the belief that we should not fear it. When Dharma wrote it, he was thinking about what would happen if he died at a young age and if he would be reunited with loved ones in the afterlife. Dharma explained in a 1995 interview with College Music Journal: "I felt that I had just achieved some kind of resonance with the psychology of people when I came up with that, I was actually kind of appalled when I first realized that some people were seeing it as an advertisement for suicide or something that was not my intention at all. It is, like, not to be afraid of it (as opposed to actively bring it about). It's basically a love song where the love transcends the actual physical existence of the partners."

Atlantis
by Donovan
{Monologue - }
The continent of Atlantis was an island
Which lay before the great flood
In the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean
So great an area of land
That from her western shores
Those beautiful sailors journeyed
To the South and the North Americas with ease
In their ships with painted sails
To the East Africa was a neighbor
Across a short strait of sea miles
The great Egyptian age is
But a remnant of The Atlantian culture
The antediluvian kings colonized the world
All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas
In all legends from all lands were from far Atlantis
Knowing her fate
Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth
On board were the Twelve:
The poet, the physician, The farmer, the scientist
The magician and the other so-called Gods of our legends
Though Gods they were -
And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind
Let us rejoice
And let us sing
And dance and ring in the new Hail Atlantis!
{Sung Portion - }
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
I wanna see you some day
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
My antediluvian baby
My antediluvian baby, I love you, girl
Girl, I wanna see you some day
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah
I wanna see you some day, oh My antediluvian baby
My antediluvian baby, I wanna see you
My antediluvian baby, gotta tell me where she gone
I wanna see you some day Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Oh yeah Oh club club, down down, yeah
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah yeah yeah

Out Of Control
Welcome to my kingdom madness
You're just in time for the show
Welcome to my world of darkness
A place where unreal becomes real
Come drink my blood, wake the demon in me
Come taste the wine of my sins
Out of control,
Without any fear of facing the madman
Out of control,
Defying the Gods of Hell
You are out of control
You can't find a shelter in Hellspace,
Under my black wings of doom
The wind in the wasteland is howling
It's the wailing of ghosts of the past
Swing 'cross the ocean of pleasure and pain,
Into my fatal embrace
Out of control,
Without any fear of facing the madman
Out of control,
Defying the Gods of Hell
You are...
Out of control,
Without any fear of facing the madman
Out of control,
Defying the Gods of Hell
You are out of control, whoa yeah!
Out of control,
Without any fear of facing the madman
Out of control,
Defying the Gods of Hell
You are...
Out of control.

WELCOME TO MY NIGHTMARE
Welcome to my nightmare
I think you're gonna like it
I think you're gonna feel you belong
A nocturnal vacation
Unnecessary sedation
You want to feel at home cause you belong
Welcome to my nightmare, whoa-whoa-oh
Welcome to my breakdown
I hope I didn't scare you
That's just the way we are when we come down
We sweat and laugh and scream here
Cause life is just a dream here
You know inside you feel right at home here
Welcome to my breakdown, whoa-whoa-oh
You're welcome to my nightmare, yeah-yeah-ah
Welcome to my nightmare
I think you're gonna like it
I think you're gonna feel you belong
We sweat and laugh and scream here
Cause life is just a dream here
You know inside you feel right at home here
Welcome to my nightmare, ooh-ooh-ooh
Welcome to my breakdown
Yeah

The wonders of nature recede
Augmenting bodies with high-tech solutions

Wallow in a land of decay
Smother your conscience, the future is bleak
