Losing My Religion

REM


Oh life is bigger
It`s bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no I`ve said too much
I set it up

That`s me in the corner
That`s me in the spot-light
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don`t know if I can do it
Oh no I`ve said too much
I haven`t said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper of
Every waking moment I`m
Choosing my confessions
Trying to keep
An eye on you
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool
Oh no I`ve said too much
I set it up

Consider this
Consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip
That brought me to my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around
Now I`ve said too much

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

That`s me in the corner
That`s me in the spot-light
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
But I don`t know if I can do it
Oh no I`ve said too much
I haven`t said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
Try try try try
That was just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream

Iron Maiden - The Number Of The Beast



Woe to You Oh Earth and Sea
for the Devil sends the beast with wrath
because he knows the time is short
Let him who hath understanding
reckon the number of the beast
for it is a human number
its number is six hundred and sixty six.

I left alone my mind was blank
I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind

What did I see? Could I believe? That what I saw
that night was real and not just fantasy

Just what I saw in my old dreams were they
reflections of my warped mind staring back at me?

'Cause in my dreams it's always there the evil face that twists my mind
and brings me to despair

Night was black was no use holding back
'Cause I just had to see was someone watching me
In the mist dark figures move and twist
was all this for real or just some kind of hell
666 the Number of the Beast
Hell and fire was spawned to be released

Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised
as they start to cry hands up to the sky
In the night the fires are burning bright
the ritual has begun Satan's work is done
666 the Number of the Beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight

This can't go on I must inform the lord
Can this still be real or just some crazy dream?
but I feel drawn towards the chanting hordes
seem to mesmerise...can't avoid their eyes
666 the Number of the Beast
666 the one for you and me

I'm coming back I will return
And I'll possess your body and I'll make you burn
I'll have the fire I'll have the force
I'll have the power to make my evil take its course

Trapped Under Ice - Metallica

I don't know how to live trough this hell
Woken up, I'm still locked in this shell
Frozen soul, frozen down to the core
Break the ice, I can't take anymore

Freezing
Can't move at all
Screaming
Can't hear my call
I am dying to live
Cry out
I'm trapped under the ice

Crystallized, as I lay here and rest
Eyes of glass stare directly at death
From deep sleep I have broken away
No one knows, no one hears what I say

Freezing
Can't move at all
Screaming
Can't hear my call
I am dying to live
Cry out
I'm trapped under the ice

Scream from my soul
Fate, mystified
Hell, forever more
No release from my cryonic state
What is this? I've been stricken by fate
Wrapped up tight, cannot move, can't break free
Hand of doom has a tight grip on me

Freezing
Can't move at all
Screaming
Can't hear my call
I am dying to live
Cry out
I'm trapped under the ice

La Formicuzza ed il grillo (Favola cantata per bambini)

C'era un grillo
in un campo di lino
la formicuzza
ne chiese un filino
Larizzumpalalillallero larizzumpalalillalla

Disse il grillo:
"che cosa ne vuoi fare?"
"Calze e camicie,
mi voglio maritare"
Larizzumpalalillallero larizzumpalalillalla

Disse il grillo:
"lo sposo sono io!"
la formicuzza
"sono contenta anch'io!"
Larizzumpalalillallero larizzumpalalillalla

Andarono in chiesa
per darsi l'anello
cadde il grillo
e si ruppe il cervello
Larizzumpalalillallero larizzumpalalillalla

La formicuzza
per il gran dispiacere
scese in cantina
per farsi un bicchiere
Larizzumpalalillallero larizzumpalalillalla

Suonan le dieci,
di la dal riso
si sente dire
che il grillo

Nesli - Un altro giorno
YouTube - Un altro giorno

E' un altro giorno che rincorre un altro sogno che va
E' un altro giorno che trascorre in piena normalità
E' tutto qua, tutto nella mia penna, la mia realtà
Sarà eterna perchè ho sempre creduto nell'aldilà
Chi lo sa quello che poi domani succederà
Tengo srette tra le mani tutte le mie verità
Non mi importa se non sono come la comunità
Sono fuori da ogni schema, dalla regolarità
Ho sempre avuto un modo strano di vivere la mia età
di vedere la vita e del senso della responsabilità
chi sa come me di cosa sto parlando
di come forse dovresti essere ma non puoi farlo
quello che hai, prima o poi, dovrai dimostrarlo
Non muore mai ciò che sei, non dimenticarlo...
Parlo perchè questo è il modo migliore
di usare le parole e giocare con la nostra immaginazione

rit.: questa va a ogni generazione da nazione a nazione
senza limitazione, guarda nel cielo la nostra costellazione
tutti con la stessa destinazione (hip-hop)

E' un altro giorno che trasforma e tutto intorno cambia forma
E' un altro luogo, è un altro modo, è un'altra chance che non ritorna
e non mi chiedo se bisogna o meno aver buona memoria
so soltanto che i ricordi a volte fanno mancar l'aria
sono io che costruisco ogni minuto la mia storia
almeno fino a stasera perchè domani è un altro giorno
e si riparte daccapo, tutto si azzera
sembra la stessa cosa ma è diversa da com'era
io sono uno di quelli che in fondo ancora ci spera
che se in un sogno credi tanto prima o poi si avvera
lascio che succeda, lascio che ogni cosa intorno accada
mentre vado avanti sempre dritto per la mia strada
"non mi guardo indietro" mi dico
ma poco dopo neanche un metro
mi volto e un ricordo mi ha già assalito
domani è un altro giorno e sarà il mio preferito
domani è un altro giorno nel mondo che ho costruito!

rit

E' un altro sogno è un altro giorno di normale realtà
chissà quanto durerà non tutta l'eternità
questo tempo, che ci spazza via come il vento
la vita è qui ora adesso in questo momento e non mento
perchè metto tutto il sentimento che ho dentro
prendo esempio da quello che vivo e che sento
ora più che mai sono attento
da me si vede in modo splendido l'alba e il tramonto
ora più che mai ho bisogno di un sogno
credere che tutto sia possibile al mondo
ma credo che non basti credere
che spesso, a volte per cambiare le cose bisogna andare fino in fondo
guarda laggiù, che cosa vedi
è un altro giorno che ci sorride perchè siamo vivi
ora ci credi tieni il passo e non cedi
perchè alla fine ogni cosa sei tu che la decidi!

The Cure - Burn


"Don't look don't look" the shadows breathe
Whispering me away from you
"Don't wake at night to watch her sleep
You know that you will always lose
This trembling adored
Tousled bird mad girl... "
But every night I burn
Every night I call your name
Every night I burn
Every night I fall again

"Oh don't talk of love" the shadows purr
Murmuring me away from you
"Don't talk of worlds that never were
The end is all that's ever true
There's nothing you can ever say
Nothing you can ever do... "
Still every night I burn
Every night I scream your name
Every night I burn
Every night the dream's the same
Every night I burn
Waiting for my only friend
Every night I burn
Waiting for the world to end

"Just paint your face" the shadows smile
Slipping me away from you
"Oh it doesn't matter how you hide
Find you if we're wanting to
So slide back down and close your eyes
Sleep a while you must be tired... "
But every night I burn
Every night I call your name
Every night I burn
Every night I fall again
Every night I burn
Scream the animal scream
Every night I burn
Dream the crow black dream
Every night I burn
Scream the animal scream
Every night I burn
Dream the crow black dream

Dream the crow black dream...
Dream the crow black dream...
Dream the crow black dream...
Dream the crow black dream...

Regina Spektor - Music Box


Life inside the music box ain't easy
The malots hit, the gears are always turning
And everyone inside the mechanism
Is yearning
To get out

And sing another melody completely
So different from the one they're always singing
I close my eyes and think that i have found me
But then i feel mortality surround me
I want to sing another melody
So different from the one i always sing

But when i do the dishes
I run the water very very very hot
And then i fill the sink to the top with bubbles of soap
And then i set all the bottle caps i own afloat
And it's the greatest voyage in the history of plastic

And then i slip my hands in and start to make waves
And then i dip my tongue in a take a taste
It tastes like soap but it doesn't realy taste like soap
And then i lower in my whole mouth and take a gulp
and start to feel mortality surround me

I close my eyes and think that i have found me
But life inside the music box ain't easy
The malots hit, the gears are always turning
And every one inside the mechanism
Is yearning to get out
And sing another melody completely
Is yearning to get out
Is yearning to get out
Is yearning to get out

Nightwish - Amaranth

Baptised with a perfect name
The doubting one by heart
Alone without himself

War between him and the day
Need someone to blame
In the end, little he can do alone

You believe but what you see
You receive but what you give

Caress the one, the Never-Fading
Rain in your heart - the tears of snow-white sorrow
Caress the one, the hiding amaranth
In a land of the daybreak

Apart from the wandering pack
In this brief flight of time we reach
For the ones, whoever dare

You believe but what you see
You receive but what you give

Caress the one, the Never-Fading
Rain in your heart - the tears of snow-white sorrow
Caress the one, the hiding amaranth
In a land of the daybreak

Reaching, searching for something untouched
Hearing voices of the Never-Fading calling

Caress the one, the Never-Fading
Rain in your heart - the tears of snow-white sorrow
Caress the one, the hiding amaranth
In a land of the daybreak

Rhett Miller - Come Around



I'm dressed all in blue and I'm remembering you
And the dress you wore when you broke my heart
I'm depressed upstairs and I'm remembering where
And when and how and why'd you have to go so far

Am I gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
Am I gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
I'm gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
Unless you come around, so come around

I'm dressed all in white and I remember the night
You came on to me and opened up my heart
I was hollow then till you filled me in, now I'm empty again
I should have never let it start

Am I gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
Am I gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
I'm gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
Unless you come around, so come around

No one else can fix me although sometimes my heart tricks me
Into thinking someone else will do
But you're the only one you are the only one

Am I gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
Am I gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
I'm gonna be lonely for the rest of my life
Unless you come around so come around
So come around, so come around

I'm dressed all in blue and I'm remembering you
And the dress you wore when you broke my heart

Metallica - Disposable Heroes

Bodies fill the fields I see, hungry heroes end
No one to play soldier now, no one to pretend
Running blind through killing fields, bred to kill them all
Victim of what said should be
A servant `til I fall

Soldier boy, made of clay
Now an empty shell
Twenty one, only son
but he served us well
Bred to kill, not to care
Do just as we say
Finished here, Greeting Death
He's yours to take away

Back to the front
You will do what I say, when I say
Back to the front
You will die when I say, you must die
Back to the front
You coward
You servant
You blindman

Barking of machinegun fire, does nothing to me now
Sounding of the clock that ticks, get used to it somehow
More a man, more stripes you wear, glory seeker trends
Bodies fill the fields I see
The slaughter never ends

Why, Am I dying?
Kill, having no fear
Lie, live off lying
Hell, Hell is here

I was born for dying

Life planned out before my birth, nothing could I say
had no chance to see myself, molded day by day
Looking back I realize, nothing have I done
left to die with only friend
Alone I clench my gun

Back to the front

David Bowie - Heroes - Helden (colonna sonora di Noi, i ragazzi dello zoo di Berlino)

I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can beat them, just for one day
We can be heroes, just for one day

And you, you can be mean
And i, Ill drink all the time
cause were lovers, and that is a fact
Yes were lovers, and that is that

Though nothing, will keep us together
We could steal time, just for one day
We can be heroes, for ever and ever
What dyou say?

Du
Koenntest du schwimmen
Wie delphine
Delphine es tun
Niemand gibt uns eine chance
Doch wir koennen siegen
Fuer immer und immer
Und wir sind dann helden
Fuer einen tag

Ich
Ich bin dann koenig
Und du
Du koenigin
Obwohl sie
Unschlagbar scheinen
Werden wir helden
Fur einen tag
Wir sind dann wir
An diesem tag

Ich
Ich glaubbte zu traeumen (zu traeumen)
Die mauer
Im ruecken war kalt (so kalt)
Schuesse reissen die luft (reissen die luft)
Doch wir kuessen
Als ob nichts geschieht (nichts geschieht)
Und die scham fiel auf ihre seite
O, wir koennen sie schlagen
Fuer alle zeiten
Dann sind wir helden
Nur diesen tag
Dann sind wir helden
Dann sind wir helden
Dann sind wir helden
Nur diesen tag

Dann sind wir helden
Were nothing
And nothing will help us
Maybe were lying
Then you better not stay
But we could be safer
Just for one day
Oh oh oh oh

Rhett Miller - Our Love


Richard Wagner's letters to his lover Mathilde were a mess
He should have quit before he had written the address
They made love on the mezzanine her husband was his friend
Vienna in a fugue-state working on a thing
That when he finished it took almost seven hours to sing
He still found time to write to her his heart-exploding words
Our love surpassed our love so fast
Our love's all wrong our love goes on and on
Our love became our love by name when I wrote it to you in a song
Our love goes on and on
Our love our love
Kafka in his letters to his lover Milena was alive
But he was waiting for a love that never would arrive
Their rendezvous was singular her husband was his friend
She is a living fire she is a reason to live
She is killing me burning only for him
I'll spend my whole life loving her my heart exploding words
Our love surpassed our love so fast
Our love's all wrong our love goes on and on
Our love became our love by name when I wrote it to you in a song
Our love goes on and on
Our love our love our love our love
Our love surpassed our love so fast
Our love's all wrong our love goes on and on
Our love became our love by name when I wrote it to you in a song
Our love goes on and on our love our love
Our love our love our love our love our love
