Marillion - Memory Of Water

I wonder if my rope's still hanging from the tree
By the standing pool where you drank me
And filled me full of thirsty love
And the memory of water?
I wonder if a king still fishes there
His back towards the burned-out air
His laughing catches singing loud
The memory of water

Your taste is blood and ecstasy
But I must drink you all alone
You're freckled like a speckled egg
A dove, but this bird has flown
O stay with me sweet memory
O stay with me

I wonder if my rope's still hanging from the tree
By the standing pool where you drank me
As pain flows through me like champagne
Of the memory of water

 

Carptree - Sunshine Waters

Some are like snow
Bright white and momentarily
Muffling
The sounds of the city

Some are a haven
Surprisingly filled with treacherous reefs
And some are
Like dew
Brand new

Some they are airy
Like clouds in the sky
Some like the bittersweet
Drop in your eye
Right now
You are sunshine waters

A surface glittering

A mirror reflecting
Making everything
Look brighter

Some are a pond
Down below
In their murky deep
Some kind of beast
Are waiting to surface

Some are a dead, calm, sea
Motionless water all around
Surrounds you
With nothing to drink

A surface glittering
A mirror reflecting
Making everything
Look

 

 

Pain Of Salvation - Tell Me You Don`t Know

There's a me who always found his way,
But I can't seem to find him just today.

If sometimes I ask you where to go,
Just don't help me find the road,
Tell me you don't know,
Please tell me so.

There was a me who always knew what was right -
That's who I need to help me through this night.

So, if sometimes I ask you where to go,
Please don't help me find the road,
Tell me you don't know,
Please tell me you don't know.

If sometimes I ask you where to go,
Just don't help me find the road,
Tell me you don't know.

If sometimes I ask you where to go,
Please don't help me find the road,
Tell me you don't know,
Tell me you don't know.
No, no, no..

 

 

Kate Bush - The Morning Fog

The light
Begin to bleed,
Begin to breathe,
Begin to speak
D'you know what?
I love you better now.
I am falling
Like a stone,
Like a storm
Being born again
Into the sweet morning fog.
D'you know what?
I love you better now.
I am falling
And I'd love to hold you now,
I'll kiss the ground
I'll tell my mother
I'll tell my father
I'll tell my loved one
I'll tell my brothers
How much I love them.

 

Riverside - Feel Like Falling


Day outside grows black
I lie faceup in my shell
Squeeze my eyes shut
And feel like falling into blank space

Had allowed that life to drift
For I’ve chosen a different trail
When light fades
I feel like falling into blank space

So you realized
Ingested real life
Grew up in the time of
Pushing through the crowds
So you realized
Chose unreal life
Settled in the mobile
Handy pocket size

Wanted to be your light
Illuminate your smiles
Wanted to be your cure
Bridge between self and us
Wanted to be your prayer
Wipe the tears from your eyes
But I turned my back

Could have been a tree of dawn
Rooted deeply in the ground
Bearing fruits
Far away from falling into blank space

But I took refuge from myself
In the crowded solitude
Now I dash
And feel like falling into blank space

Wanted to be your light
Illuminate your smiles
Wanted to be your cure
Bridge between self and us
Wanted to be your prayer
Wipe the tears from your eyes
But I turned my back
Got lost inside

 

 

Sylvan - Human Apologies

Wastefulness - the inconvenience of our passions
Thoughtlessness - too many things we have in mind
Spitefulness - could be our hidden motivation
Or just thanklessness

Infallibility - what we claim but never can reach
Plasticity - the human wish to rule it all
Insatiability - we're the animals of greed
Fucking apologies - what the hell we're waiting for ...

Here we live! Here we lied!
Here we failed and finally here we'll die!

Ignorance which is so suitable for excuses
Negligence - we yet abused a thousand times
Short-sightedness is the blindness in our visions
Seasoned with irresponsibility

The clutch of long lost sympathy for conscience calls
And a precise emergency affects us all
Now it's an iron certainty this way must end for sure
This - with a certain irony - we still ignore

Ignoring full of competence what we don't know
We rather lost our common sense – this, time will show
And with a sad indifference we state explicitly
That we can't judge the consequence for humanity!

Times's changed ... don't we feel that? ... don't we see that?
... don't we fear that? ... we should know ...

Pain Of Salvation - Pluvius Aestivus

[Of Summer Rain (Homines Fabula Initium)]

[Instrumental]

 

Creed - Rain

 

Can you help me out, can you lend me a hand?
It's safe to say that I'm stuck again
Trapped between this life and the light
I just can't figure out, how to make it right...

A thousand times before
I've wondered if there's something more... something more...

I feel it's gonna rain like this for days
So let it rain down and wash everything away
I hope that tomorrow the sun will shine
With every tomorrow comes another life...

I feel it's gonna rain, for days and days
(I feel it's gonna rain)
I tried to figure out, I can't understand...
What it means... to be whole again...
Trapped between the truth and the consequence
Nothing's real, nothing's making sense...

A thousand times before
I've wondered if there's something more... something more...

I feel it's gonna rain like this for days
So let it rain down and wash everything away
I hope that tomorrow the sun will shine
I feel it's going to rain like this... rain like this... rain like this...

Fall down, wash away my yesterdays
Fall down, so let the rain fall down on me...

I feel it's gonna rain like this for days
Let it rain down and wash everything away
I hope that tomorrow the sun will shine
I feel it's going to rain like this... rain like this...

So let the rain fall...
I feel it's gonna rain like this... rain like this...
So let the rain fall down...
I feel it's gonna rain like this...

I feel it's gonna rain.

Pain Of Salvation - To the Shoreline

I'm far from sober.
And she's far from sane.
When she takes my hand and she pulls me away.

She leads me down to the shoreline.
She leads me down to the shoreline.
She leads me down to the sea.
She pulls me into the water.
And then she whispers to me:

“Love, you know that I can make you stronger.
Love, you know that I can make you brave.
But there's one thing that you must remember:
That I am too far gone for you to save.”

Sand through her fingers.
The night slips away.
She gave me her body.
But never her name.

I followed her to the shoreline.
I'd follow her to the grave.
Two sinking ships in the darkness.
And we are much too close to break away.

And I know that she will make me stronger.
And I know that she will make me see.
And I know that she will make me younger.
But I don't know what more she'll do to me.

And she said:

“You know that I can make you stronger.
Love, you know that I can make you brave.
But there's one thing that you must remember:
That I am too far gone for you to save.”



Sylvan - The Waters I Traveled

 


Vastness around me, waves and endless sea

Swim hastily, scared by unknown deeps ...

 

Wake up ...

 

The thing under me hides beneath my feet

A secret disease – is it fake or real?

 

Part II

 

Awake on a salving shore ... The surges have ceased from me

It seems that a saving stream somehow has brought me here ...

Feel someone is holding me ... Wipes traces of wet away

And while all my fears dry out, it dawns on me: you’re here ...

 

And here you calm me, safe me, guide me with your light

To wave the shadows, nightmares and my sweat aside ...

 

You listen so patiently... To tales you don’t believe

And that’s why you’re so incredibly valuable to me ...

 

Soak up my moaning, brave and brighten it up with your light

Endure my selfish, stories ... right by my side, right by my side ...

 

Light up the sea- little beacon, shine for me!

Define the stream that eventually leads me here!

Relume the deep – fill the ocean with your gleam, please, please ...

 

Light up ...

 

Part III

 

Wait and rest now, peacefully ... take a breath now ...

Still and silent, waveless sea ... for a while not deep ...

Calm and sound, in harmony – fade it out and leave ...

Dim horizon, dormant wind – the storm is hiding ... it hides from me ...

 

Something is rising now ... I start to feel it ...

Still subtle but not so far away...

Below the surface of my life ... but you taught me to face it ...

You made me aware of my own line ... little beacon, you’re my guide ...

 

That’s why I care, why I feel, why you shine night and day

That’s why I’m gracious that your light chases my secret fear away ...

 

Chase it away ...

Heart, you bleed away … Days, you’re dyed in crimson

World, you left me pale and misunderstood

 

 

Home, where are you now? Face, I lost you in the

Crowed, a frozen Place – will my heart survive?

 

Then a flamet flares up faintly

Touch my heart with just one smile!

 

Heart, you beat aloud … Dawn, a sanguine fire

World, I should walk out, pass on what I feel

 

Rain above me – brave the stormy sea

Swim vigorously – stand the obscure deeps

 

The thing under me tries to grap my feet

Lights, finally ... now I’m out of reach!

 

Part IV

 

The moment I’ll wake up – forever I will stay

And the Waters I travelled will be million miles away

 

Miles away ...

ELO - Standing In The Rain

 

(Concerto for a rainy day...)
(Rain...)

I'm standing in the rain
I'm waiting all alone
I'm so tired
I wanna go home.

I'm standing in the rain
Getting soaking wet
I'm doing my best
But what do I get?

I'm standing in the rain
Can't seem to get along
People rushing by
Wish they could hear my song.

I'm standing in the rain
It's teeming down on me
Cats & dogs
I wanna be free.

I'm standing in the rain
Doing my thing
I'm trying my best
What does it bring?
I'm standing in the rain
Getting soaking wet
I'm doing my best
But what does it get?

The good intentions and the pain
Lay drowned now in the pouring rain
I tried to be so good this time
But here I am under the sky.

The good intentions and the pain
Lay drowned now in the pouring rain.



Anathema - The Gathering Of The Clouds


Searched the whole world
Found I can't compare

(But we're here 'cause we're here
We're here 'cause we're here)
Searched the whole night long
(And there's nothing to fear
No, there's nothing to fear)

(But we're here cause we're here
We're here 'cause we're here)
Found out what's been going wrong
(And there's nothing to fear
No, there's nothing to fear)

Time is not what it would seem
(All that I've seen, all that I feel
All I could be, is happening to me)
The life we live is like a dream
(All that I've seen, all that I feel
All I could be, is happening to me)
Release belief, let it wash over me
(All that I've seen, all that I feel
All I could be, is happening to me)
Let love reveal what I feel
(All that I've seen, all that I feel
All I could be, is happening to me)
What I feel, what I feel, what I feel

Searched the whole world
(Fight for what you believe in
Dare to live your dream
In this life don't be afraid of yourself
Don't be afraid)
Found I can't compare
(Fight for what you believe in
Dare to live your dream
In this life don't be afraid of yourself
Don't be afraid)

Searched the whole night long
(Fight for what you believe in
Dare to live your dream
In this life don't be afraid of yourself
Don't be afraid)
Found out what's been going wrong
(Fight for what you believe in
Dare to live your dream
In this life don't be afraid of yourself
Don't be afraid)

Time is not what it would seem
(All that I've seen, all that I feel
All I could be, is happening to me)
The life we live is like a dream
(All that I've seen, all that I feel
All I could be, is happening to me)
Release belief, let it wash over me
(All that I've seen, all that I feel
All I could be, is happening to me)
Let love reveal what I feel
(All that I've seen, all that I feel
All I could be, is happening to me)
What I feel, what I feel, what I feel


Marillion - Dry Land


Songwriters: HOGARTH, S. / WOORE, COLIN
(Music: Hogarth / Woore Lyrics: Steve Hogarth)

In all the time that I've known you
You've been so edgy and nervous
I never wanted to own you

I was aware of the danger
Of making a bid for your favours
You're such a natural stranger
I made excuses and ran

You're an island
But I can't leave you all out at sea
You're so violent with your silence
You're an island
I can't sleep
Won't you speak to me
I'm on dry land
Won't you help me please

In all the time that I've known you
There has been something between us
I don't think it's my imagination

I felt like I couldn't touch you
But I had the feeling you'd love to
Tell me the truth if you could do
I made excuses and ran

You're an island
But I can't leave you all out at sea
You're so violent with your silence
You're an island I can't sleep
Won't you speak to me
I'm on dry land
Won't you help me please

You're an island
But I can't leave you all out at sea
You're so violent with your silence
You're an island I can't sleep
Won't you speak to me
I'm on dry land
Won't you help me please


Jolly - Downstream


Take this and swallow it down
you drown awake
and can't be free ever
and time flies away

returning to the center
you'll be there in a day
drifting further down the river
and time flies away

Year after year
ageless flow
under the current

Year after year
caught in the flow
downstream falling

You'll wake up and be here
only to find you're
someone else inside

stranded in the stream
and time dies slowly

Year after year
agless flow
under the current

Year after year
caught in the flow
downstream falling

Save me from the river


RPWL - Gentle Art Of Swimming



Songwriters: LANG, JUERGEN / WALLNER, KARLHEINZ
Silent tears are streaming down
Gather to forbidden streams
The shifting clouds flowing entangled
Shadows edge the scenery
Thoughts collide with chained emotions
Seems like they were born again
The last glow of my dying senses
Erupted from the end of all our dreams
The gentle art of swimming
Swimming through our live
Through worlds of every colours
Screaming their delight
Passing through a sudden silence
Single echoes died away
Seas of light in three dimensions
Climbing through the atmosphere
Followed by my cosmic ego
Childhood pictures blurred by time
Every point of my emotion


Sylvan - Kind Of Eden

Feel it faintly ... feel it shyly ... feel it ineffably ...
feel it truly ... feel it so silently ...
feel it eternally and feel it expectantly ...
feel it always

In a place that's full of peace, where the calm surrounds me
Swim through liquid mysteries, drop the chains that bound me
In this place so clean and wild - free the world I leave behind
Sink into the deepest quiet - unchangeably
I close my eyes

Please let me know you'll understand, it's not your fault I'm leaving
I'll cry the tears for you, oh Dad, please let me reach my Eden

Disappear into thin air - a new leaf's turned over
Vanish from the world out there, for the wind got colder
Pleasantly I found the truth guiding me back to my roots
Finally it leads me soon to origins where I belong

Please let me know you'll understand, it's not your fault I'm leaving
I'll cry the tears for you, oh Dad, please let me reach my Eden


Sylvan - God Of Rubbish

That's far too different
Too insignificant,
You know
What are those harmonies?
Progressive?
Useless complexity...

Watch out, I'll come!
Watch out, I'll show you!
Watch out my friend!
I should ignore you!
No frippery!
Please not artistic!
And not profound!
Keep it simplistic!
Airy-fairy tales...

I'm not sluggish, I'm the God of rubbish
I'm a crap creator, tickled pink gold saver
I am great, God knows it!
Kick it fast, compose shit!
I'm a billion brilliant billboard dream...

Come out and here!
Come out and listen!
My music sells!
So grasp my wisdom!
No symphony!
Just for the money!
King radio
Will kiss you, honey!
Airy-fairy tales...

I'm not sluggish, I'm the God of rubbish
I'm a crap creator, tickled pink gold saver
I am great, God knows it!
Kick it fast, compose shit!
I'm a billion brilliant billboard dream...

Interested in success?
Come baby, kiss my ass!
I'm not sluggish, I'm the God of rubbish
I'm a crap creator, tickled pink gold saver
I am great, God knows it!
Kick it fast, compose shit!
I'm a billion brilliant billboard dream...
I'm not sluggish, I'm the God of rubbish

Sylvan I Still Believe

 

Deep in my soul - fertile in sentiments –
Gaining control, still subdued and hesitant
Thinking of peace for me, hoping my doubts might fade –
This is no game, I can't wait till it's much too late

I still believe, still keep our past alive
Just honesty or extraordinary lies ?

Deep in my mind raising continuously,
Just fate might decide: future or history
Claiming to care for you, wondering if love can die – fooling myself, don't I ?
Or is it worth to fight ?

I still believe, still keep our past alive
Just honesty or extraordinary lies ?

I'm faking dreams - incessantly
It's build on lies - or justified ?

 

 Third Day - I Believe

Give me something that I can believe
And then I'll share it with
the world for everyone to see
Take away the darkness, all the pain and sadness
I know it's you that put this light inside of me

I believe in a faith that's strong
I believe in a hope that carries on
I believe in these things and more
Most of all, most of all
I believe in love

If I had the strength to move a mountain
Would you be amazed by all of my abilities
I guess it would not mean
much if I didn't have love
And this is what I really
want you all to see


Pain Of Salvation - Vocari Dei


0:00 "I just want you to speak to me."

0:05 "I'm still waiting for you, God. I pray because this hell to be finished. Goodbye, God. Goodbye to you all." (in some languanges like Spanish and Italian "because" is the same as "for", so this is a normal mistake)

0:15 "I don't trust in any God. I don't know who God is, but I know what God should be."

0:21 "Well, take a look here, take a good look at what you've created!"

0:24 "Hi, God. This is Lorenzo. I want to ask you something: Why life is so hard? Why love is so cruel? Why I can't really be me, not someone else? I just want to be me."

0:37 "Hey, God, this is Jan Biel. I just called to thank you for being with me when my life seemed to fall apart. You carried me through my darkest hours and I'm very grateful for that. Thank you."

0:49 "Hi, God, it's me, from Earth. I know you haven't returned any of my previous call, but maybe you were simply not there. But here it goes again. I wanted to thank you for giving me the opportunity to be part of this world. But didn't you also give us people the mind to explore and question? So... Where are you? And where have you been when we needed you the most?"

1:10 " It's --- speaking, I must be drunk (???) or far away for I no longer believe in you anymore, so I thought you're non-existent. 'Cause I figured this out, for all the harm and the grief that you bring into this world - Either you're a cruel entity for not changing things, or you don't exist."

1:30 "Please tell me why this horrible things happen? Why did those two towers have to fall and how can you let this happen? Does there have to be such hatred in this world? Why must society struggle so hard for tolerance?"

1:42 "I prayed every day for weeks now, why won't you answer my prayers? Prove to me and so many others, why I should continue pray! I have faith to my friends and my family, isn't that enough?"

1:53 "Hello... hello? ---" (Japanese: Shinjiteru? Shinjiteitai? "Do you believe? Do you want keep believing?") (Dutch: Wie ben ik? Wie ben jij? "Who am I? Who are you?") (Greek: "Please save dad, and please save mum.")

2:06 "Please God, if you exist, help me believe that the world is real, that I am real, and that everything is real, that we are more than just a coincidence"

2:17 "This world is what we can give."

2:20 "Speak to me. I won't ask you to save me. I just want you to speak to me."

2:27 "Hey... Did I apologize to you for... you know... I just want to say I'm sorry and... thank you. Oh, and one more thing: Please, help me fly."

2:40 "Please God, take me away from here, I can't take anymore, they are devouring me... I'm so lost, I'm so lost... God?"

2:57 "Kamisama-san, naze sensou? Naze shi? Naze kiga? Naniwodesuka? Omaeha naniwotameniiru? Sayonara." (Japanese: Dear God, why is there war? Why is there death? Why is there starvation? What for? What is the reason of your existence? Good-bye.)

3:12 "Ghia su Thee, anarotieme, ti imaste? Poso simantiki s' afto ton kosmo? Pu pigenoume?" (Greek: "Hello, God. I wonder... what are we? What's our importance in this world? Where are we going to?" )

3:22 "Uhh... yeah, uhh... listen, God... umm... I just want to say a really big thank-you on behalf of... uhh, everybody. And... thanks for getting the whole thing started and... for getting it off the ground, but... I think, that this time we have really screwed things up and I am so, so sorry."

3:46 "I need you now. I need you."


Riverside - Schizofrenic Prayer


So afraid of rejection
Hide inside ourselves
Acting like strangers to avoid the pain

We collect our phobias
Our sicknesses
Feel so good only when we can complain

In your arms
Feels like a better us
In your arms

In your arms
Feels like a better us

Dancing around the fire
Getting drunk with the night
Nobody is ever who they seem to be

Hypnos give us your hand
We so tire of this life
Need to rest and finally disappear

In your arms
Feels like a better us
In your arms

In your arms
Feels like a better us

In your arms
Feels like a better us
In your arms

In your arms
Feels like a better us

Porcupine Tree - Halo

God is in my fingers God is in my head
God is in the trigger God is in the lead

God is freedom, God is truth
God is power and God is proof
God is fashion, God is fame
God gives meaning, God gives pain

You can be right like me
With God in the hole you're a righteous soul
I got a halo round me, I got a halo round me
I'm not the same as you
Cos I've seen the light and I'm gaining in height now
I got a halo round me, I got a halo round me
I got a halo round my head

God is on the cell phone God is on the net
God is in the warning God is in the threat


Gazpacho - Desert Flight


I feel my way
Down the okra coloured day
And I found a way
To say goodbye to you again
A hundred thousand miles

I don't know why we don't explode
With all that fuel leaking out

We can be the first
Tie a ribbon all 'round the world
We'll make it a gift to us
From the start with a wind-flapped officer's scarf
Like a ghost in the wind

All I want is to make it so
You depend on what I need

Still at 70 miles an hour
Daylight fading into dusk
Milky temple of the night in memory of your sweet delights
The cities that we fly by are like
Strangers waving from a train
Elevator trim the mirrors blink at every lighthouse point

You're asleep inside of me
You can see the things that I can see

This is everybody's way and every day
We control ourselves as every night
Our hearts pound like devil drums
I don't know how they don't explode


Transatlantic We All Needs Some Light


Some people think
Think they have none
They might as well stay down
Running in circles
Like bulls in a ring
'Til the sword finds it's way down

While the creep beats the rap on appeal
And the cop who can't stop
Shows the kids how to steal

[CHORUS]
And we all need some light now
We all need some light now
Yes, we all need some light now
Turn on your light
And wash the darkness away

Hey you on the brink
Waiting to fall
To become human surplus
The movie's still shooting
You might still get the roll
And man it's all just a circus

But the clown left town long ago
Maybe he'll come back and give us a show

[CHORUS]
And we all need some light now
We all need some light now
Yes, we all need some light now
Turn on your light and wash the darkness away
