| Thrice - The Lion and the Wolf (Alchemy Index Vol. IV: Earth) |

The lion's outside of your door
The wolf's in your bed
The lion's claws are sharpened for war
The wolf's teeth are red
And what a monstrous sight he makes
Mocking man's best friend
When both the wolf and lion crave
The same thing in the end
The lion's outside of your door
The wolf's in your bed
The wolf he howls, the lion does roar
The wolf lets him in
The lion runs in through the door
The real fun begins
As they both rush upon you and
Rip open your flesh
The lion eats his fill and then
The wolf cleans up the rest
The lion's outside of your door
The wolf's in your bed
The lion's outside of your door
The wolf's in your bed |

| Taking Dawn- Take Me Away |

The black that bleeds,
The dream she leaves,
are open veins that stain her sleeves.
And now the lonely streets her only friend tonight.
But the lights are cold, the lies are old.
And all she wants is to go home.
She bites her lips
and shuts her eyes, sings herself a lullaby.
Take Me Away,
hold on tight and kiss the night,
theres nothin left to say.
Take me away, O
pen wide and whisper I can almost hear her say.
She loves the rush,
she loves the thrill,
she loves the hunt,
she loves the kill.
Deep inside she knows its her who dies each time.
And the lights are cold,
the lies are old.
And all she wants is to go home.
She bites her lips and shuts her eyes,
sings herself a lullaby.
Take Me Away,
hold on tight and kiss the night,
theres nothin left to say.
Take me away,
Open wide and whisper I can almost hear her say.
Just take me home.
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
Wipe back the black to free the blue.
Now honey its just me and you.
Ill kill em all if you ask me to.
But all she says is.
Take Me Away,
hold on tight and kiss the night,
theres nothin left to say.
Take me away,
Open wide and whisper I can almost hear her say.
Just take me home.
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na |

| "Angels" by Within Temptation |

Sparkling angel I believe
You were my savior in my time of need.
Blinded by faith I couldn't hear
All the whispers, the warnings so clear.
I see the angels,
I'll lead them to your door.
There's no escape now,
No mercy no more.
No remorse cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart.
You took my heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke a promise and made me realize.
It was all just a lie.
Sparkling angel, I couldn't see
Your dark intentions, your feelings for me.
Fallen angel, tell me why?
What is the reason, the thorn in your eye?
I see the angels,
I'll lead them to your door
There's no escape now
No mercy no more
No remorse cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart
You took my heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke a promise and made me realize.
It was all just a lie.
Could have been forever.
Now we have reached the end.
This world may have failed you,
It doesn't give the reason why.
You could have chosen a different path in life.
The smile when you tore me apart.
You took my heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke a promise and made me realize.
It was all just a lie.
Could have been forever.
Now we have reached the end. |

"Skalds and Shadows" by Blind Guardian
Would you believe in a night like this?
A night like this, when visions come true
Would you believe in a tale like this
A lay of bliss, we´re praising the old lore
Come to the blazing fire and
See me in the shadows
See me in the shadows
Songs i will sing
Of runes and rings
Just hand me my harp
And this night turns into myth
Nothing seems real
You soon will feel
The world we live in is another skald´s
Dream in the shadows
Dream in the shadows
Do you believe there is sense in it
Is it truth or myth
They´re one in my rhymes
Nobody knows the meaning behind
The weaver´s line
Well nobody else but the Norns can
See through the blazing fires of time and
All things will procede as the child of the hallowed
Will speak to you now
See me in the shadows
See me in the shadows
Songs I will sing of tribes and kings
The carrion bird and the hall of the slain
Nothing seems real
You soon will feel
The world we live in is another skald´s
Dream in the shadows
Dream in the shadows
Do not fear for my reason
There´s nothing to hide
How bitter your treason
How bitter the lie
Remember the runes and remember the light
All I ever want is to be at your side
We gladden the raven now I will
Run through the blazing fires
That´s my choice
Cause things shall proceed as foreseen |

| "Flagpole Sitta" - by Harvey Danger |

I had visions, I was in them,
I was looking into the mirror
To see a little bit clearer
The rottenness and evil in me
Fingertips have memories,
Mine can't forget the curves of your body
And when I feel a bit naughty
I run it up the flagpole and see who salutes
(But no one ever does)
I'm not sick, but I'm not well
and I'm so hot 'cause I'm in hell
Been around the world and found
That only stupid people are breeding
The cretins cloning and feeding
And I don't even own a TV
Put me in the hospital for nerves
And then they had to commit me
You told them all I was crazy
They cut off my legs now I'm an amputee, Goddamn you
I'm not sick, but I'm not well
And I'm so hot cause I'm in hell
I'm not sick, but I'm not well
And it's a sin, to live so well
I wanna publish 'zines
And rage against machines
I wanna pierce my tongue
It doesn't hurt, it feels fine
The trivial sublime
I'd like to turn off time
And kill my mind
You kill my mind
Mind...
Paranoia, paranoia
Everybody's comin' to get me
Just say you never met me
I'm runnin' underground with the moles
Diggin' big holes
Hear the voices in my head
I swear to God it sounds like they're snoring
But if you're bored then you're boring
The agony and the irony, they're killing me, whoa!
I'm not sick, but I'm not well
And I'm so hot cause I'm in hell
I'm not sick, but I'm not well
And it's a sin to live this well
(One, two, three, four!) |

| | Birthday Massacre- Video Kid | ] |
Next phase, next craze, next nothing new
got the pretty boy beat him up black and blue
broke the sissy boy's teeny toy heart in two
turned him into a video kid like you
I know we're just pretending
there's no window for mistakes
I know you see right through me
there's no promise left to break
shot the pretty boy killed him on commodore
need a new game, need a new something more
got a new face got a new way to score
got a voice like something I've heard before
I know we're just pretending
there's no window for mistakes
I know you see right through me
there's no promise left to break
the message misleading
we're lying, we're cheating
we're only repeating
the motions preceding
I know you're just pretending
there's no window for mistakes
I know you see right through me
there's no promise left to break |

Through a different kind of silence
I'm waiting, I'm wasting
Into the road of sadness
I'm walking without you
Hello, hello, hello, hello
Is it gonna last?
Why don't you come and take me with you?
And so I know you had to go
I'm dreaming of the past
An echo of the years we passed through
Asleep in your arms I'm drifting
I'm falling in sorrow
Dead to the world you left me
In footsteps I follow
Hello, hello, hello, hello
Is it gonna last?
Why don't you come and take me with you?
And so I know you had to go
I'm dreaming of the past
An echo of the years we passed through
Hello, hello, hello, hello
Is it gonna last?
Why don't you come and take me with you?
And so I know you had to go
I'm dreaming of the past
An echo of the years we passed through. |

| "The Suicider" by Sentenced. |

"I am the light that shall lead you to darkness"
Well, here I am, I'm back again
From the Deadlands I descend'
back from the dead, back from The End
'I'm here to take Revenge!
Soon the deathly dusk will fall
and the Night I've waited for
'at the dawn you'll live no more
Breathing through Death Living for Bloodshed
I'm the Suicider dying every night and day
Killing me is not enough to make me go away
I live to kill and kill to live
And long for dying endlessly
Each time I kill I'm born again
'I have become The End
Thus I am and thus I'll die
yet another thousand times
'I am dead and I am alive
Take a deep breath'
It's the last one you will get!!!
I'm the Suicider dying every night and day
Killing me is not enough to make me go away
I'm the Suicider seeking for the End of Life
(But) killing me is not enough to cease the flame inside
'Thus I kill and thus I`ll die'
Thus I will live for all time
I'm the Suicider dying every night and day
Killing me is not enough to make me go away
I'm the Suicider seeking for the End of Life
(But) killing me is not enough to cease the flame inside |
