Running to the Edge of the World



Remember when I took you
Up to the top of the hill?
We had our knives drawn.
They were as sharp
As we were in love.

If god crossed us
We'd take all his drugs,
Burn his money
And his house down,
And wait for the fire to spread.

But sometimes hate is not enough
To turn this all to ashes.

Together as one
Against all others
Break all of our wings to
Make sure it crashes
We're running to the
Edge of the world
Running, running away
We're running to the edge of the world
I don't know if the world will end today

I had no choice,
I erased the debt of our family,
Let you say goodbye
With lips like dynamite.

And everyone
Turned their backs
Because they knew
When we held on tight
To each other,
We were something fatal,
That fell into the wrong hands.

My death waits there... a New Year's Sublime Present



My death waits like an old roué
so confident I'll go his way
whistle to him and the passing time...
My death waits like a Bible truth
at the funeral of my youth
weep loud for that -
and the passing time...
My death waits like
a witch at night
as surely as our love is bright
let's not think about the passing time

But whatever lies behind the door
there is nothing much to do...
angel or devil, I don't care
for in front of that door...
there is you.

My death waits like a beggar blind
who sees the world through an unlit mind
throw him a dime
for the passing time...
My death waits there between your thighs
your cool fingers will close my eyes
let's think of that and the passing time.
My death waits to allow my friends
a few good times before it ends
so let's drink to that and the passing time

But what ever lies behind the door,
there is nothing much to do
angel or devil I don't care
for in front of that door... there is you

My death waits there among the leaves
in magicians mysterious sleeves
rabbits and dogs and the passing time.
My death waits there among the flowers
where the blackest shadow, blackest shadow cowers
let's pick lilacs for the passing time.
My death waits there, in a double bed
sails of oblivion at my head
so pull up the sheets
against the passing time

But whatever lies behind the door
there is nothing much to do
angel or devil... I don't care
for in front of that door
there is...


(I love this song! It's sooo much David Bowie! This man is more than a singer... amazing!I dedicate it with all my love to all of you the sublime sweethearts, wishing you to find your 'death' out there this year! Make most of this year and don't forget to laugh, not just smile! Love, Melian)

The Heart of Everything - Within Temptation



For the pain and the sorrow caused by my mistakes
Won’t repent to a mortal, whom is all to blame?
Now I know I won`t make it, there will be a time
We'll get back our freedom, they can't break what's inside

I'll face it cause it's the heart of everything

Open up your eyes
Save yourself from fading away now, don't let it go
Open up your eyes
See what you've become, don't sacrifice
It's truly the heart of everything

Open up your eyes

Stay with me now, I’m facing my last solemn hour
Very soon I'll embrace you on the other side
Hear the crowd in the distance screaming out my faith
Now their voices are fading, I can feel no more pain

I'll face it cause it's the heart of everything

Open up your eyes
Save yourself from fading away now, don't let it go
Open up your eyes
See what you've become, don't sacrifice
It's truly the heart of everything

Open up your eyes
Open up your eyes

Open up your eyes
Save yourself from fading away now, don't let it go
Open up your eyes
See what you've become, don't sacrifice
It's truly the heart of everything

Shatter (All My Dead Friends) - London After Midnight



You're telling me
that I'm the most important thing to you,
but can't you see?
you're killing me with all the things you do,
and I really want to believe it's impossible
I really want to believe it's all a dream,
but I just can't seem to wake up,
I just can't seem to turn on the light,
one step off the edge
and the world will seem all right

You did it again,
yes you in the mirror,
you put your faith in a cruel world,
All my dead friends come to haunt, harm and hinder,
never letting go,
here to drag me down to Hell,
just say goodbye...

Just answer me,
what was the point of all that treachery,
and soon we'll see
the truth behind all of your blasphemy,

No never again
I'll never trust no one again,
I'd sooner slit my wrists and risk discovery of Hell,
than stay another moment here where certain Devils dwell...

Wishful Beginnings - David Bowie & Brian Eno





Cruising around me
the flames burn my body
Wishful beginnings
Does this remind them again & again
You're a sorry little girl
You're a sorry little girl
Please hide,
for the pain must feel
like snow
You're a sorry little girl
Sorry little girl

Please hide from the kiss and the bite
Shame burns
Breathing in, breathing out
Breathing in only doubt
The pain must feel like snow
I'm no longer your golden boy
Sorry little girl
I'm sorry little girl

The pain must feel like snow
There you go
Cover me, cover me
We flew on the wings
We were deep in the dead air
And this one will never go down

We had such
wishful beginnings
But we lived
unbearable lives
I'm sorry little girl
Sorry little girl
So so sorry little girl

The pain must feel like snow
There you go
There you go

Worn Out With Dreams



Don't tear apart your name
It hides you, and it heals the pain

Don't tear out your love, you can't depart from me
You'll stay away from harm

Abide by me, when indecision strikes
Down there with me

Let me enfold you

I can't escape our frail embrace
I bend under the morning light
But I could scale the face of life

Mock me, mock me
If my voice is unsteady
I'm just worn out with dreams
Under your pale, sardonic sky

I am watching myself crawl
Down to me
Down with me
Onward a new path

Let me enfold you

We cannot escape our frail embrace
We bend under the morning light

She and Her Darkness - Diary of Dreams



My heart weights minimum a tone
An army's feet pounding on my head
Maybe I'll wake up one day to notice
that all my life was just a dream...

And maybe I'll be better off without you
You left me here with all my thoughts
I'd write a zillion words or walk a million miles
I'd sleep on broken glass just not to lose your smiles

I travel for you around the world
Collecting moments, o how absurd
To bring you beauty, to bring you joy
I wish I'd be a little boy

Where is that silence you promised me?
Why is that distance so close to me?
Why is your violence still hurting me?
Why are your eyes avoiding me?

Let me say thank you for all that you have given me.
Thank you for everything you've done.
Forgive me for saying one last thing:
I miss you and I hope you hear this song!

I travel for you around the world
Collecting moments, o how absurd
To bring you beauty, to bring you joy
I wish I'd be a little boy

I'm dying for you, can't you see?
I'm lying for you to be free!
I hunger for you, 'cause I can't eat!
I'd vanish for you in defeat!

Candlemass - Of Stars And Smoke


The monumental sleep
With the sunrise at my feet
Where's the altar of the gods,
The warth and the floods?

All is in vain

Of stars and of smoke I am
Of shade and of light
With dragons in every hand
I'm vading through life

From nothing I came before,
To nothing I go
I heard that wise man said:
"From presence to silence...we flow"

The rainbows in the sky
Soon their colours die
I see the birds of prey
They've been circling here all day

It's always the same

We live the eternal dream
The big and cosmic scheme
A part that all play
To stand the last of days

It's all just a game

Of stars and of smoke I am
Of shade and of light
With dragons in every hand
I'm fading through life

From nothing I came before,
To nothing I go
I heard that the wise man said:
"From presence to silence...we flow"

(Nothing describes better the human condition that these lyrics...)

Sirenia - a Gothic Metal band

"SIRENIA sounds like a mixture of gothic metal and rock with classical influences, as well as black and death metal elements. Their sounds have a solid base in the powerful drums and bass which are arranged in a very dynamic and progressive way and supported by powerful rhythm guitars, dressed with atmospheric keyboards and spiced with melancholic violins and 12-string guitars. The Vocal styles are varied and are made up by growls, screams, female vocals, clean male vocals, choirs, whispers and samples. The songs are very intense and the atmosphere changes frequently. The lyrics are based on reflections on life, death, love, hate, paranoia, anxiety and mental decline in general."

History:

"Sirenia came together in early 2001, when Morten Veland parted ways with his former band Tristania, due to musical disagreements and personal differences. He was however at this point full of ideas and more than ready to set them free. He invested a lot in new equipment and spent much time in his home studio composing."

Members:
  • Morten Veland - Programming, Growling, Clean Vocals, Guitar, Bass, Keyboards
  • Monika Pedersen - Female Vocals
  • Jonathan A. Perez - Drums
  • Bjørnar Landa - Guitar
Discography:
  • At Sixes and Sevens (2002)
  • An Elixir for Existence (2004)
  • Nine Destinies and a Downfall (2007)


There’s a light and a darkened road
There’s a night and a fading hope
There was a dream that once was mine
But now it seems it has passed with time

Sail away my little sister
Sail away to the other side
Sail away my little sister
Sail away far into the night
Where times seems much better
Than this void called life

There’s a voice inside my head
There was a hope, now now long since dead
It’s all a wonder, will I abide
I hear you calling from the other side

Kiss of Dawn - HIM

Blinded I am and so are you
By shedding tears
Confusion that separates us two
We hold dear

Just look into my eyes
Kiss our fears goodbye

I'm reaching for your shadow
Drowning in the kiss of dawn
Touching the pain that you left me with
At the kiss of dawn

I'm tired of the games I'm playing with you
When you're not here
Death frees from the fear of dying
It's true, have no fear

Let me look into your eyes
And see death pass us by

I'm reaching for your shadow
Drowning in the kiss of dawn
Touching the pain that you left me with
At the kiss of dawn

If I Was Your Vampire - Marilyn Manson

6 AM, Christmas morning
No shadows
No reflections here
Lie cheek to cheek in your cold embrace.

It started so tragic as a slaughterhouse
She pressed the knife against your heart
And say that 'I love you' so much you must kill me now.
I love you so much you must kill me now...

If I was your vampire
Slim as the moon
Instead of killing time
We'll have each other till the sun.

If I was your vampire
Death waits for no one.
Put my hands across your face
Because I think our time has come.

Digging your smile apart with my spade tongue
And the hole is where the heart is
We built this tomb together
I will fill it alone.

Beyond the pale
Everything's black no turning back

If I was your vampire
Slim as the moon
Instead of killing time
We'll have each other till the sun.

If I was your vampire
Death waits for no one.
Put my hands across your face
Because I think our time has come.

Blood stained sheets in the shape of your heart
This is where it starts
This is where it will end
Here comes the moon again.

Six nineteen and I know I'm ready.
Drive me off the mountain
You'll Burn and I'll eat your ashes.
Impossible we're seducing our corpse.

If I was your vampire
Slim as the moon
Instead of killing time
We'll have each other till the sun.

If I was your vampire
Death waits for no one.
Put my hands across your face
Because I think our time has come.

This is where it starts
This is where it will end
Here comes the moon again.

Tainted Love - Marilyn Manson





Sometimes I feel I've got to…
Run away,
I've got to…
get away from the pain you drive in the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere,
I've lost my light,
I toss and turn,
I can't sleep at night,

Once I've ran to you,
(I ran)
Now I run from you,
This tainted love you've given,
I give you all a boy could give you,
take my tears,
and that's not nearly all,
Tainted Love,
Tainted love

Now I know I've got to…
Run away,
I've got to…
Get away,
Don't really want anymore from me to make…
Things right,
Y' need someone…
to hold you tight
D'ja think
Love was to blame,
I'm sorry I don't play that way

Once I've ran to you,
(I ran)
Now I run from you,
This tainted love you've given,
I give you all a boy could give you,
take my tears and that's not nearly all,
Tainted love,
Tainted love

Don't touch me please,
I can not stand the way you tease,
I look for the head you sew
So now I'll pack my things and go!
Sexy baby tainted love,
Sexy baby tainted love,
Sexy baby tainted love,
Sexy baby tainted love!
Once I've ran to you!
(I ran)
Now I run from you!
This tainted love you've given!
I give you all a boy could give you!
take my tears and that's not nearly all!
Tainted love,
Tainted love,
Tainted love,
Tainted love.

When Love and Death Embrace


I'm in love with you
And it's crushing my heart
All I want is you
To take me into your arms

When love and death embrace

I love you
And you're crushing my heart
I need you
Please take me into your arms

When love and death embrace
When love and death embrace
When love and death embrace
When love and death embrace
