Stay with me awhile
Rise above the vile
Name my final rest
Poured into my chest
Into the orchard I walk peering way past the gate
Wilted scenes for us who couldn't wait
Drained by the coldest caress, stalking shadows ahead
Halo of death, all I see is departure
Mourner's lament but it's me who's the martyr
Pledge yourself to me
Never leave me be
Sweat breaks on my brow
Given time ends now
Into the orchard I walk peering way past the gate
Wilted scenes for us who couldn't wait
Drained by the coldest caress, stalking shadows ahead
Halo of death, all I see is departure
Mourner's lament but it's me who's the martyr
Spirit painted sin
Embers neath my skin
Veiled in pale embrace
Reached and touched my face
Into the orchard I walk peering way past the gate
Wilted scenes for us who couldn't wait
Drained by the coldest caress, stalking shadows ahead
Halo of death, all I see is departure
Mourner's lament but it's me who's the martyr
Lay beside me
Tell me what they’ve done
Speak the words I wanna hear
To make my demons run
The door is locked now
But it’s opened if you’re true
If you can understand the me
Then I can understand the you …
Lay beside me
Under wicked skies
Through black of day, dark of night
We share this paralyze
The door cracks open
But there’s no Sun shining through
Black heart scarring, darker still
But there’s no Sun shining through
No, there’s no Sun shining through
No, there’s no Sun shining….
What I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door
Should I open it for you?
Yeah, what I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Sick and tired I stand alone
Could you be there?
’Cause I’m the one who waits for you
Or are you un-forgiven, too?
(interlude)
Come, lay beside me
This won’t hurt, I swear
She loves me not, she loves me still
But she’ll never love again
She lay beside me
But she’ll be there when I’m gone
Black heart scarring, darker still
Yes, she’ll be there when I’m gone
Yes, she’ll be there when I’m gone
Dead sure she’ll be there …
What I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door
Should I open it for you?
Yeah, what I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Sick and tired I stand alone
Could you be there?
’Cause I’m the one who waits for you
Or are you un-forgiven, too?
(interlude)
Lay beside me
Tell me what I’ve done
The door is closed, so are your eyes
But now I see the Sun
Now I see the Sun
Yes, now I see it-….
What I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door
Should I open it for you?
Yeah, what I’ve felt, what I’ve known
So sick and tired I stand alone
Could you be there?
’Cause I’m the one who waits,
the one who waits for you
Oh, what I’ve felt, what I’ve known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door
Should I open it for you? ( So I dub the unforgiven )
Oh, oh, what I’ve felt
Oh, uh, what I’ve known
I’ll take this key ( Never be, never me )
And I’ll bury it in you
Because you’re un-forgiven too ( Never free, never me… )
’Cause you’re unforgiven, too
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh…
Me Enamora" by Juanes ("It Makes Me Fall In Love")
Cada blanco en mi mente
Se vuelve color con verte
Y el deseo de tenerte,
Es más fuerte, es más fuerte.
Every white (blank) in my mind Turn to color on seeing you And the desire to have you, Is more strong, is more strong.
Sólo quiero que me lleves
De tu mano por la senda,
Y atravesar el bosque
Que divide nuestras vidas.
I only want you to take me By the hand on the path, And through the forest That divides our lives.
Hay tantas cosas
Que me gustan hoy de ti.
There are so many things That I like about you today.
Chorus A:
Me enamora
Que me hables con tu boca
Me enamora
Que me eleves hasta el cielo
Me enamora
Que de mí sea tu alma soñadora.
It makes me fall in love That you speak to me with your mouth It makes me fall in love That you elevate me to the heavens It makes me fall in love That your dreamer's soul be mine.
Chorus B:
La esperanza de mis ojos
Sin ti, mi vida no tiene sentido
Sin ti, mi vida es como un remolino
De cenizas que se van (ooooh)
Volando con el viento.
The hope of my eyes Without you, my life has no meaning Without you, my life is like a whirlpool Of ashes that escape [*lit. go away] Flying with the wind.
Yo no sé si te merezco
Sólo sé que aún deseo
Que le des luz a mi vida
En los días venideros.
I don't know if I deserve you All I know is that I still wish For you to give light to my life In its days ahead.
Léeme muy bien los labios
Te lo digo bien despacio
Por el resto de mis días
Quiero ser tu compañía.
Read my lips well I tell it to you very slowly For the rest of my days I want to be your company (companion).
Hay tantas cosas
Que me gustan hoy de ti.
There are so many things That I like about you today.

We put our lives in the hands of the ones that claimed they truly cared.
Come to find it's all just a lie & when we needed them no one was there.
I swear I'm not bitter.
I just see them for what they are;
Money!
Hungry!
Cowards!
Sucking the blood out of artists & killing the art!
So count out the money you stole from starving artists you watched pave the way,
But you know just as well as I do, without us you're just an empty name!
Where were you when they had no faith in us?
Where were you when they shut us out?
It's funny you show up now
And if it fell apart
I know that you'd be nowhere to be found.
We did this on our own.
Thanks for nothing!
The ones that kicked me when I was down
Are the same ones that say they need me now.
That's fine, I'll play the game but just know,
I told you so!
I've seen the greed in their eyes!
Well I guess I'm nothing but a dollar sign.
I've seen the greed in their eyes!
Well I guess I'm nothing but a dollar sign.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/m/memphis+may+fire/prove+me+right_21019269.html ]
Four years gone by, now everything is fine, no thanks to you.
You'll never know, nor do you care about what it took
Or the things we've been through.
Where were you when they had no faith in us?
Where were you when they shut us out?
It's funny you show up now
And if it fell apart
I know that you'd be nowhere to be found.
We did this on our own.
Thanks for nothing!
Ignorance had me by the throat
From the day I learned how to sing,
But now my eyes are open wide
And this is what I see.
I see the greed in their eyes!
They had me fooled at first because I believed all the lies.
Oh the lies!
I see the greed in their eyes!
They had us fooled at first but we're taking control this time.
We're taking control this time!
Where were you when they had no faith in us?
Where were you when they shut us out?
It's funny you show up now
And if it fell apart
I know that you'd be nowhere to be found.
We did this on our own.
Thanks for nothing!
So count your money & I'll count my friends.
We'll see who's richer in the end!
You had the blue note sapphire eyes,
to back up all those gazes
To pierce my guard and to take my soul off to faraway places
Told me I'll never be alone,
cos you're right there
We took a gamble with this love,
like sailing to the storm
With the waves rushing over to take us, we were battling against the tide
You were my beacon of salvation,
I was your starlight
So don't cry for your love, cry tears of joy
Cos you're alive... cradled in love
Don't cry for your love, cry tears of joy
Cos you're alive... cradled in love ....
I kept the love you gave me alive, and now I carry it with me
I know it's just a tear drop from mother earth,
but in it I can hear a dolphin sing
Telling me I'll never be alone,
I know you're right there
So with the fire still burning bright,
I wanna gaze into your light
If I could see my fortune there, you know how flames can hypnotize
Do I even dare to speak out your name for fear it sounds like,
like a lover
So don't cry for your love, cry tears of joy
Cos you're alive... cradled in love
Don't cry~ for your love, cry tears of joy
Cos you're alive... cradled in love
Don't cry for your love, cry tears of joy
Cos you're alive... cradled in love
Don't cry~ for your love, cry tears of joy
Cos you're alive... cradled in love....~
Cradled in love... wuu~....
Cradled in love ... Cradled in love~ ...
Cradled in love ...~~
Cradled in love ... wuu~uu...
Hear your heartbeat
Beat a frantic pace
And it's not even seven AM
You're feeling the rush
of anguish settling
You cannot help showing them in.
Hurry up then
Or you'll fall behind and
They will take control of you
And you need to heal
The hurt behind your eyes
Fickle words crowding your mind
So
Sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in,
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in,
And carry you over to a new morning
Try as you might
You try to give it up
Seems to be holding on fast
It's hand in your hand
A shadow over your
A beggar for soul in your face
Still it don't matter
If you won't listen
If you won't let them follow you
You just need to heal
Make good all your lies
Move on and don't look behind
So
Sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in,
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in,
And carry you over to a new morning
Day after day
Fickle visions
Messing with your head
Fickle, vicious
Sleeping in your bed
Messing with your head
Fickle visions
Fickle, vicious
So
Sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in,
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in,
And carry you over to a new morning
Sleep, sugar, let your dreams flood in,
Like waves of sweet fire, you're safe within
Sleep, sweetie, let your floods come rushing in,
And carry you over to a new morning
Σβήνω απ'την άμμο όλα τα χνάρια
απόψε που σε κυνηγάνε,
ξέρεις δε φταίνε τα λιοντάρια,
αν μείνουν νηστικά πεινάνε...
Υποταγμένα σε κριτές,
υποκριτές και τους μοιραίους
κήρυκες που από ουρανούς
κι από άμβωνες ωραίους...
λένε πως σ'έφερε ως εδώ
μαύρο καράβι,μέγα πάθος
όμως το ξέρουν κατά βάθος...
Αερικό είσαι,αερικό...
Αερικό είσαι,αερικό...
Όσοι δε θέλουν να θυμούνται
πότε και που αντισταθήκαν,
ποια τείχη γκρέμισες και βγήκαν,
ποιες φυλακές να μη φοβούνται...
τώρα σε θέλουνε σκυφτό,
τώρα σε θέλουν νικημένο,
ανήμπορο κι υποταγμένο
για να ξεχνάνε αυτό που ήταν...
Θα 'ρθει μια μέρα ένα παιδί,
τη μέρα που θα επιστρέψεις,
θα 'ρθει αυτό,μην το γυρέψεις
και θα σου πει...
Αερικό είσαι,αερικό...
Αερικό είσαι,αερικό...
English - Aeriko
I tonight extinguish from the sand the all footprints that chase you,
you know are not to blaim the lions, if they remain foodless [peinane]…
Subjugated in critics,
hypocrites and the fatal preachers where from skies
and from pulpits beautiful…
they say that in it brought as here
black boat, big passion
however they know him at depth…
[Aeriko] you are, [aeriko]…
[Aeriko] you are, [aeriko]…
Those who do not want they remember
when and that resisted,
who walls [gkremises] and they came out, who prisons they are not afraid… now you want [skyfto],
now they want you overcome,
invalid and subjugated
in order to they forget what was… '[rthei] one day a child,
the day where you will return,
'[rthei] this, you do not look for him
and it will say to you…
[Aeriko] you are, [aeriko]…
[Aeriko] you are, [aeriko]…
I'm holdin' on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground.
And I'm hearin' what you say,
But I just can't make a sound.
You tell me that you need me,
Then you go and cut me down...
But wait...
You tell me that you're sorry,
Didn't think I'd turn around...
And say...
That it's too late to apologize.
It's too late...
I said it's too late to apologize.
It's too late.
Yeah!
I'd take another chance,
Take a fall, take a shot for you.
I need you like a heart needs a beat,
But it's nothin' new, yeah!
I loved you with a fire red,
Now it's turnin' blue...
And you say...
Sorry, like an angel
Heaven let me think was you...
But I'm afraid...
It's too late to apologize.
It's too late.
I said it's too late to apologize.
It's too late.
Whoa!
(Interlude)
It's too late to apologize.
It's too late.
I said it's too late to apologize.
It's too late.
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah!
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah!
I'm holdin' on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground.
We seem so lost and jaded
Well what a price to pay
fear can be overstated,
and you seem infatuated
with finding who's to blame.
While it can seem so hard now,
I got a feeling we ain't meant to live this way.
Don't tell me it's too late,
cause I feel it too, we all love to hate
and let others lead the way.
Some searching to find
That life with a new piece of mind.
And still we march further away,
Singing our songs of yesterday.
While so much still stands in our way,
Voices with nothing to say.
Some feel that life's a favor,
While some don't have the time.
Worship and kiss the altar,
All hail the mighty father,
but love will keep you blind.
Same questions we keep asking,
Won't hear the answers
cause we're scared of what we'll find
We try and compensate through our troubled faith that should keep us safe
and keep searching for a sign.
Some searching to find
That life with a new piece of mind.
And still we march further away,
Singing our songs of yesterday.
While so much still stands in our way,
Voices with nothing to say.
There won’t be another day, no changing of the seasons,
And no one's gonna save us from the lies.
The greatest story ever told,
Is only what you make it.
There will be struggle and fear,
All by design
And still we march further away (We seem so lost and jaded)
Singing our songs of yesterday (Nothing's got all the point, the blame)
While so much still stands in our way (Yeahhh!)
Voices with nothing to say
(I) I am the one
(The one) Who lost control
(Control) But in the end I'd be the
Last Man Standing
(I) I am the one
(The one) Who sold his soul
(His soul) Forever gone to be the
Last Man Standing
Glorious
Noble in my mind
Everything a fight to win
Taking all and giving
Whatever my pride would let me
Not backing down, not giving in
I wouldn't lose, I couldn't
(I) I am the one
(The one) Who lost control
(Control) But in the end I'd be the
Last Man Standing
(I) I am the one
(The one) Who sold his soul
(His soul) Forever gone to be the
Last Man Standing
I walk alone
With my head held high
Never felt that I belonged
Stand my ground at all costs
Running through life with blindfolds
Just for the right - right to be wrong
Nothing would rule my world but…
(Refrão)
Solo - Stefan Elmgren
Nothing would rule my world but…
(Refrão x2)
Seeing clearer what I've done
I'd refuse to let things go
I could never once admit I'm wrong
And what do I have to show?
Seeing clearer what's at stake
And the things I have to change
I just hope I can, it's not too late
To get a chance to end this pain

Could you tell me in person
Tell me that you don’t want me to wait for you
Look at my eyes, in front of me
Tell me that you’ll no longer sentimentally attached to me
Could you tell me that you’ve forgotten my face
Could I stop pine for that you might be here?
Please do tell, tell me in person
Should I? I understand. You’re like night-blooming cereus.
Must I? Deeply. Fallen into love sea
Know better? Clearly. It’s one of the variable of life.
Only confused, I’m already all dusted
Cry alone I've gone away
No more nights no more pain
I've gone alone took all my strength
I've made the change I won't see you tonight
Sorrow sank deep inside my blood
All the ones around me
I cared for and loved
Building up inside of me
A place so dark, so cold I had to set me free
Don't mourn for me you're not the one to place the blame
As bottles called my name I won't see you tonight
Sorrow sank deep inside my blood
All the ones around me
I cared for and most of all I loved
But I can't see myself that way
Please don't forget me
Or cry while I'm away
(Guitar)
Cry alone I've gone away
No more nights no more pain
I've gone alone took all my strength
But I've made the change I won't see you tonight
So far..... away I'm gone
Please.... don't follow me... tonight
And while I'm gone.......
Everything will be alright
(Guitar)
No more breath inside
Essence left my heart tonight
No more breath inside
Essence left my heart tonight
You said you'd be there for me
In times of trouble when I need you and I'm down
And like why do you need friendship
It's from my side pure love but I see lately things have been changing
You have goals to achieve
But the road you take abroad and heartless that wants you make another way
You throw stones
Can't you see that I am human I am breathing
But you don't give a damn
Chorus
Can't you feel my heart is beating
Can't you see the pain you're causing
Can't you feel my heart is beating
Can't you see the pain you're causing
Blood blood blood... keeps rushing
And now the world is asleep
How will you ever wake her up when she gets deep in the dreams, wishing
And yet so many die
And still we think that it is all about us
It's all about you
You sold your soul to the evil and the lust
And the passion and the money and you
And the same ones die, and people hunger for talking,
Suffer under civilized damn robbers but they stabled us
Chorus
Can't you feel my heart is beating
Can't you see the pain you're causing
Can't you feel my heart is beating
Can't you see the pain you're causing
Blood blood blood... keeps rushing
Invaded, eliminated, erased, interrogated
Our tradition, our love for our fellow countrymen,
Our property, our ancestors - have died
Can you feel, can you feel my heart beating?
Chorus
Can't you feel my heart is beating
Can't you see the pain you're causing
Can't you feel my heart is beating
Can't you see the pain you're causing
My story starts the day they said "she can't be found"
the news so dark, heart stopped, stood silent without a sound
It's over, she's finished, mother lies with your father and sister too
Cold-blooded, they suffered, shot down by the outlaws after you
Sorrow swallows my screams
Strength of the world - is on my shoulders
Strength of the world - is on my side
Strength of the world - the one true beholder
Ice in my veins - for those who've died
I've seen my family fade away, you've taken my whole life
There's nothing left to say
Avenge the dead killed all who crossed me in my path
Suicidal, I never planned on coming back
I want it, I need it, revenge is dripping from my teeth
Need nothing, to feel power, and bring the killers to their knees
Nothing to lose vengeance to gain (you know I'll never be the same)
So taste my breath I'm close behind you (so desperate on your final day)
Sorrow swallows my screams
Strength of the world - is on my shoulders
Strength of the world - is on my side
Strength of the world - the one true beholder
Ice in my veins - for those who've died
I've seen my family fade away, you've taken my whole life
There's nothing left to say
(Guitar)
Sitting in silence with heaven above me I prayed every night by their graves
While I search for closure I feel it no longer
I can't turn my cheek away
I stand before you; I'll sin when I have to
But now I leave your side, to avenge my family's pride
I've seen my family fade away, you've taken my whole life
There's nothing left to say
(Guitar)
Strength of the world - is on my shoulders
Strength of the world - is on my side
Strength of the world - the one true beholder
Ice in my veins - for those who've died
So far forever now alone, a greater punishment on me has been imposed
A killer falling from the light, I'll miss my family, I'll never be alright
