How could you not like a song with a title like that? Plus, it’s a decent song.

Lyrics:

You’ve turned your back on me 

And left me alone 

I saw this house, so high 

You’ve turned your back on me

And left me alone

I saw this house, so high

– Will it take me to the sky

Another life, another soul

Taken by yourself esteem

16.6 floors to realize my dream
There was just one more way

And the ice cold wind howled through the night

I heard a distant scream

I’d never believed the door extreme

There’s just a one way street

Without an exit for us all to leave And here we stay and nothing more to say
Let me burn – burn me alive

Got a bullet with your name on it

Hits you straight between the eyes

Let me burn – burn me alive

Guess it’s time to teach a lesson

Gonna pack my

Metal Tuesday – Leaves’ Eyes – To France

July 21, 2015 / / 0 Comments

This was originally a Blind Guardian song, but I like Leaves’ Eyes’ cover. It may have something to do with my affinity for female-fronted metal bands.

Lyrics:

Taking on water, sailing a restless sea
From a memory, a fantasy.
The wind carries into white water,
Far from the islands.
Don’t you know you’re…

Never going to get to france.
Mary, queen of chance, will they find you
Never going to get to france.
Could a new romance ever bind you

Walking on foreign ground like a shadow
Roaming in far off territory
Over your shoulder, stories unfold
You’re searching for sanctuary.
You know you’re…

Never going to get to france.
Mary, queen of chance, will they find you
Never going to get to france.
Could a new romance ever bind you

I see a picture
By the lamp’s flicker.
Isn’t it strange how
Dreams fade and shimmer

Never going to get to france.
Mary, queen of chance, will they find you
Never going to get to france.
Could a new romance ever bind you

I see a picture
By the lamp’s flicker.
Isn’t it strange how
Dreams fade and shimmer

Never going to get to france.
Mary, queen of chance, will they find you
Never going to get to france.
Could a new romance ever bind you

Never going to get to france.
Never going to..

Metal Tuesday- Falconer – The Clarion Call

July 14, 2015 / / 0 Comments

This is another one that will crawl up your ear and stay there for a while.

Lyrics:

All our visions of sweet tomorrow

is cracking and fading away.

Hopes of glory are drowned in sorrow

this dissension expels us to yesterday.


Lead your troops into your lust of pride

they’ll fight so brave at heart.

Or cast the yoke of envy aside

and keep the land from falling apart.


Do you hear the clarion call,

it’s calling out to one and all.

Who will live and who will fall,

who will walk the golden hall.

Do you hear the clarion call,

it’s calling out to one and all.

Who is right and who is wrong,

whose side is god really on.


What are the alliances and treaties for

as pretenders yet look to the sky.

All the trumpets will sound once more

and victory will be given another try.


Do you hear the clarion call,

it’s calling out to one and all.

Our blood must be spilled

so the nobles’ visions can be fulfilled.


The night harvests our land

while the dissidents reach for their dreams.

The nations’ split by false hands

while their prize slowly vaporize

into a steam that escape their eyes.

A fool is he who cannot foresee,

hell is what this, our land will be.

Yes hell what is this, our land will be.


Do you hear the clarion call,

it’s calling out to one and all.

Which side will finally prevail,

while the other side will fail.

How many pretenders can we endure?

The land is bleeding, so not many more.

Who may better the royal sceptre sway?

Questions, questions,

you’ll see at the end of the day.
