Anathema: Harmonium





Lyrics:



Feel free to comprehend

what i see will never end

it can't be now that life is gone

its too real to overcome



its too real

its too real

its too real



and these days my hands are tied

these days i think you'll find

i'm not me now a light has died

its too real to run and hide



i was floating in the water

something tried to pull me under

i was floating in the water

something tried to pull me under

i was trying to live my life

it wouldn't let me

let me let me let me

i was trying to live my life

it wouldn't let me

let me let me let me



feel free to comprehend

what i see will never end

i'm not me now a light has died

its too real to run and hide



i was floating in the water

something tried to pull me under

i was floating in the water

something tried to pull me under

i was trying to live my life

it wouldn't let me

let me let me let me

i was trying to live my life

it wouldn't let me

let me let me let me

Mylene Farmer: Ainsi Soit Je ...



Lyrics:

Bulle de chagrin
Boule d'incertitude
Tant de matins
Que rien ne dissimule
Je veux mon hiver
M'endormir loin de tes chimeres
Je sais bien que je mens
Je sais bien que j'ai froid dedans

Bulle de chagrin
Boule d'incertitude
De nos destins
Naît que solitude
Tu dis qu'il faut du temps
Qu'aimer n'est pas un jeu d'enfant
Je sais bien que tu mens
Mais je suis si seul a présent

Ainsi soit Je
Ainsi soit Tu
Ainsi soit Il
Ainsi moi je
Prie pour que Tu
Fuis mon exil
Mais quel espoir
Pourrais-je avoir
Quand tout est noir?
Ainsi soit Je
Ainsi soit Tu
Ainsi soit ma vie
Tant pis.

Bulle de chagrin
Boule d'incertitude
Deux orphelins
Que le temps défigure
Je voudrais mon hiver
M'endormir loin de tes chimeres
Tu sais bien que je mens
Tu sais bien que j'ai froid dedans.

Ainsi soit Je
Ainsi soit Tu
Ainsi soit Il
Ainsi moi je
Prie pour que Tu
Fuis mon exil
Mais quel espoir
Pourrais-je avoir
Quand tout est noir?
Ainsi soit Je
Ainsi soit Tu
Ainsi soit ma vie
Tant pis...

Sting: Send Your Love



Lyrics:

Finding the world in the smallness of a grain of sand
And holding infinities in the palm of your hand
And Heaven's realms in the seedlings of this tiny flower
And eternities in the space of a single hour

Send your love into the future
Send your love into the distant dawn

Inside your mind is a relay station
A mission probe into the unknowing
We send a seed to a distant future
Then we can watch the galaxies growing

This ain't no time for doubting your power
This ain't no time for hiding your care
You're climbing down from an ivory tower
You've got a stake in the world we ought to share

You see the stars are moving so slowly
But still the earth is moving so fast
Can't you see the moon is so lonely
She's still trapped in the pain of the past

This is the time of the worlds colliding
This is the time of kingdoms falling
This is the time of the worlds dividing
Time to heed your call

Send your love into the future
Send your precious love into some distant time
And fix that wounded planet with the love of your healing
Send your love
Send your love

There's no religion but sex and music
There's no religion but sound and dancing
There's no religion but line and color
There's no religion but sacred trance

There's no religion but the endless ocean
There's no religion but the moon and stars
There's no religion but time and motion
There's no religion, just tribal scars

Throw a pebble in and watch the ocean
See the ripples vanish in the distance
It's just the same with all the emotions
It's just the same in every instance

There's no religion but the joys of rhythm
There's no religion but the rites of Spring
There's no religion in the path of hate
No prayer but the one I sing

Send your love into the future
Send your precious love into some distant time
And fix that wounded planet with the love of your healing
Send your love
Send your love

There's no religion but sex and music
There's no religion that's right or winning
There's no religion in the path of hatred
Ain't no prayer but the one I'm singing

Send your love
Send your love ...

Alanis Morissette: Ironic



Lyrics:

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
Isn't it ironic ... don't you think

It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought ... it figures

Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
'Well isn't this nice...'
And isn't it ironic ... don't you think

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face

It's a traffic jam when you're already late
It's a no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic... don't you think
A little too ironic... and yeah I really do think...

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
Helping you out,
Helping you out ...

Sinead: Drink Before The War



Lyrics:

Well, you tell us that we're wrong
And you tell us not to sing our song
Nothing we can say will make you see
You got a heart of stone
You can never feel
You say oh I'm not afraid - it can't happen to me
I've lived my life as a good man
Oh, no you're out of your mind
It won't happen to me
aaCos I've carried my weight
And I've been a strong man
Listen to the man in the liquor store
Yelling anybody want a drink before the war?
And your parents paid you through
You got a nice big car
Nothing bothers you
Somebody cut out your eyes
You refuse to see
Somebody cut out your heart
You refuse to feel
And you live in a sham
You create your own hell
You live in the past
And talk about war
And you dig your own grave yeah
But it's a life you can save
So stop getting fussed
It's not gonna happen
And you'll cry
But you'll never fall
No, no, no You're building a wall
Gotta break it down
Start again
No, no, no
It won't happen to us
We've lived our lives
Basically we've been good men
So stop talking of war
Cause you know we've heard it all before
Why don't you go out there
And do something useful
Oh listen to the man in the liquor store
He yelling anybody wanna drink before the war?
Anybody wanna drink before the war?
Anybody wanna drink before the war?

Nena: Anytime, Anywhere ...




Nena - Anytime Anywhere ...
(download: 1.7mg, stream: .8mg)



Lyrics:



Im Sturtz durch Raum und Zeit, Richtung Unendlichkeit…

Fleigen Motten in das Licht, genau wie du und ich…

Wrap your fingers ‘round my neck.

You don’t speak my dialect,

But our images reflect.

Drawn together by the flame,

We are just the same:

Embrace the wind and fall into another time & space.

Gib mir die Hand - ich bau dir ein Schloss aus Sand

Irgendwie, irgendwo, irgendwann…

If we belong to each other,

We belong anyplace, anywhere, anytime.

Im Sturtz durch Zeit und Raum, er wacht aus einem Traum…

Nur ein kurzer Augenblick – dann kehrt die Nacht zurueck.

Bits and pieces from your star

Rain upon me as they fall;

Melt into my skin and I feel warm.

Sweep upon me like a wave.

We are young and brave:

Embrace the wind and float into another time & space.

Gib mir die Hand - ich bau dir ein Schloss aus Sand

Irgendwie, irgendwo, irgendwann…

If we belong to each other,

We belong anyplace, anywhere, anytime.

Drawn together by the flame,

We are just the same:

Embrace the wind and fall into another time & space.



If we belong to each other,

We belong anyplace, anywhere, anytime.

I’m going to anywhere you’re coming from.

Anyplace, anywhere, anytime.

Gib mir die Hand - ich bau dir ein Schloss aus Sand

Irgendwie, irgendwo, irgendwann…

Die Zeit is reif fuer ein bisschen Zaertlichkeit

I’m going to anywhere you’re coming from.

Anyplace, anywhere, anytime .

Sting: Desert Rose



Lyrics:

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of fire
Those dreams are tied to a horse that will never tire
And in the flames
Her shadows play in the shape of a man's desire

This desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

And as she turns
This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
This fire burns
I realise that nothing's as it seems

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of rain
I lift my gaze to empty skies above
I close my eyes, this rare perfume
Is the sweet intoxication of her love

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

Sweet desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

Sweet desert rose
This memory of Eden haunts us all
This desert flower, this rare perfume
Is the sweet intoxication of the fall
