Nice song lyrics

[Lyes]

Here are some lyrics I'd like to make you discover I think they are great.

These lyrics are from TOOL:
"[Parabol]
So familiar and overwhelmingly warm
This one, this form I hold now.

Embracing you, this reality here,
This one, this form I hold now, so
Wide eyed and hoopeful.

Wide eyed and hoopefully wild.
We barely remember what came before this precious moment,
Choosing to be here right now. Hold on, stay inside...
This body holding me, reminding me that I am not alone in
This body makes me feel eternal. All this pain is an illusion.

[Parabola]
We barely remember who or what came before this precious moment,
We are Choosing to be here, right now. Hold on, stay inside...
This holy reality, this holy experience.
Choosing to be here in...
This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal all this pain is an illusion.

Alive!

Twirling round with this familiar parable.
Spinning, weaving round each new experience.
Recognize this as a holy gift and
celebrate this chance to be alive and breathing.

This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality.
Embrace this moment. Remember:
We are eternal, all this pain is an illusion."

This song places me in a great mood.

There is another one from Angra
It's titled "Spred your fire"

[The crusader meets a Jewish Rabin; an old blind oracle with frightening looks who acknowledges that the voyager has been chosen by God to bring light to the eyes of people who can't see. He hands the crusader a book of blank pages eagerly shouting, "Spread your Fire! burn the temples down!".]

[The oracle's voice resounded in his ears lunatic and sensless for years.]

"Woke up to life not long ago
You think your mind is in control?
God will take it back someday

It's not so hard to understand
They say the world has good and bad
Father Universe brings Love and Hate

Glorious - You'll lead the way
To free the world from these chains
Glorious - Your story now begins
Fire!

Unleash the angel of the Light
Thank him for bringing us to life
Lucifer is just a name!

We are the only ones to blame
Just look around, I'm not insane!
Satan is a child of our Mind

Glorious - Don't be afraid
To lead the way with thy sword
Glorious - You are the chosen one. Go!

Spread your fire

Salve ara, salve victima
De passionis gloria
Qua vita mortem pertulit
Et morte vitam reddidit."

There are many things I disagree within this one but there are also great words

And to finish, these words from Dream Theater, from the song "Take The Time"

"You can feel the waves coming on
(It's time to take the time)
Let them destroy you or carry you on
(It's time to take the time)
(If you're) Fighting the weight of the world
No one can save you this time
Close your eyes,
You can find all you need in your mind"

[Nick]

Thank you Lyes -  Those are very nice lyrics!

I really liked these song words from TOOL:

"Embrace this moment. Remember:
We are eternal, all this pain is an illusion."

Hello Lyes! Nice lyrics indeed. The words were like re-affirmation text for me and I think anyone who has evolved out of good vs evil religious dogma can appreciate them, particularly Christianism.
Music is just a blessing to the world in general and it gets better when you have beautiful lyrics to go along with it. I like this song by Enya and I've put it here with all the da da das ...


Wild Child by Enya

Ever close your eyes
ever stop and listen
ever feel alive
and you've nothing missing
you don't need a reason
let the day go on and on

Let the rain fall down
everywhere around you
give into it now
let the day surround you
you don't need a reason
let the rain go on and on

What a day
what a day to take to
what a way
what a way
to make it through
what a day
what a day to take to
a wild child

Only take the time
from the helter skelter
every day you find
everything's in kilter
you don't need a reason
let the day go on and on

Every summer sun
every winter evening
every spring to come
every autumn leaving
you don't need a reason
let it all go on and on

What a day
what a day to take to
what a way
what a way
to make it through
what a day
what a day to take to
a wild child

What a day
what a day to take to
what a way
what a way
to make it through
what a day
what a day to take to
a wild child

What a day
what a day to take to
what a way
what a way
to make it through
what a day
what a day to take to
Da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da
what a way
what a way
to make it through
Da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da
What a way
what a way
to make it through
what a day
what a day to take to
a wild child
what a day
what a day to take to
a wild child

I love Enya 

[Lyes]

I think I'll listen to some Enya songs these days to know what it sounds like.

Music is simply great. When you associate the power of music and the power of words altogether you can make people cry. That's the level I'd like to reach.

[Lyes]

Oh there are two other songs from Tool which lyrics are absolutely amazing

Lateralus - Words by Adam Jones

Black then white are all I see in my infancy
Red and yellow then came to be reaching out to me
Lets me see

As below so above and beyond - I imagine
Drawn beyond the lines of reason
Push the envelope - watch it bend...

Over-thinking, over-analyzing separates the body from the mind
Withering my intuition missing opportunities and I must
Feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines...

Black then white are all I see in my infancy
Red and yellow then came to be reaching out to me
Lets me see...

There is so much more, and beckons me
To look through to these infinite possibilities...

As below so above and beyond -
I imagine drawn outside the lines of reason
Push the envelope - watch it bend...

Over-thinking, over-analyzing separates the body from the mind
Withering my intuition leaving opportunities behind

FEED MY WILL TO FEEL THIS MOMENT
URGING ME TO CROSS THE LINE...
REACHING OUT TO EMBRACE THE RYTHM;
REACHING OUT TO EMBRACE WHATEVER MAY COME...

... I embrace my desire to...
... I embrace my desire to
Feel the rythm, to
Feel connected,
Enough to step aside and weep like a widow, to
Feel inspired, to
Phathom the power, to
Witness the beauty, to
Bathe in the foutain, to
Swing on the spiral, to
Swing on the spiral, to...

Swing on the spiral of our own divinity and... still be a human... (this phrase nearly makes me cry!!!)

With my feet upon the ground, I lose myself between the sounds
And open wide to suck it in, I feel it move across my skin
I'm reaching up and reaching out,
I'm reaching for the random, or whatever will bewilder me
Whatever will bewilder me, and
Following our will and wind, we may just go where no one's been,
We'll ride the spiral till the end and may just go where no one's been

Spiral out!
Keep Going!
Spiral out!
Keep Going!
Spiral out!
Keep Going!
SPIRAL OUT!!!!
Keep Going!

This song has a beautiful music but you have to open your mind to electric guitars and drums or else you'll consider this as noise :p

The next one deals with the ego and has profound lyrics but the music is really dark for some reason. Surely to represent the pain and misery that the ego can make in our lives if we don't deal with it in some way. If you want to listen to the song, once again, open your mind before you say it's noisy and totally dark :p

Reflection

I have come curiously close to the end
Down beneath my self-indulgent pityful hole
Defeated and conceded
I move closer...
I may find comfort here
I may find peace within the emptiness
... How pityful 

It's calling me...
It's calling me...
It's calling me...
It's calling me...

And in my darkest moment, fetal and weeping
The moon tells me a secret - my confident
As full and bright as I am,
This light is not my own...
A million light reflections pass over me...
This source is bright and endless,
She ressucitates the hopeless
Without her we are lifeless satellites drifting...
And as I pull my head out, I am without one doubt
Don't wanna peer down here, serving my narcissism...
I must crucify the ego, before it's far too late
I pray the light lifts me up,
before I pine away...
before I pine away...
before I pine away...
before I pine away...

So crucify the ego, before it's far too late
To leave behind this place so negative and blind and cynical
And you will come to find that we are all one mind
Capable of all that's imagined and all conceivable
Just let the light touch you, and let the words spill through
and let them pass right through, bringing out our hope and reason...

Before we pine away...
Before we pine away...
Before we pine away...
Before we pine away...
