Tραγούδια με μυστηριακή ατμόσφαιρα και "παράξενους" στίχους

[Seth]

The sun is sleeping quietly
Once upon a century
Wistful oceans calm and red
Ardent caresses laid to rest

For my dreams I hold my life
For wishes I behold my nights
A truth at the end of time
Losing faith makes a crime

I wish for this night-time to last for a life-time
The darkness around me - Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping
Weeping
With you

Sorrow has a human heart
From my God it will depart
I'd sail before a thousand moons
Never finding where to go

Two hundred twenty-two days of light
Will be desired by a night
A moment for the poet's play
Until there's nothing left to say

[repeat chorus x2]

[melian]

Lord of this World

You're searching for your mind don't know where to start,
Can't find the key to fit the lock on your heart
You think you know but you are never quite sure,
Your soul is ill but you will not find a cure. Yeah

Your world was made for you by someone above,
But you chose evil ways instead of love
You made me master of the world where you exist,
The soul I took from you was not even missed. Yeah

Lord of this world,
Evil Possessor,
Lord of this world,
He's your confessor now!

You think you're innocent you've nothing to fear,
You don't know me, you say, but isn't it clear?
You turn to me in all your worldly greed and pride,
But will you turn to me when it's your turn to die? Yeah

[melian]

Children of the Grave

Revolution in their mind, the children start to march
Against the world in which they have to live
And all the hate that's in their hearts
They're tired of being pushed around and told just what to do
They'll fight the world until they've won
and love comes flowing through. Yeah!

Children of tomorrow live in the tears that fall today
Will the sun rise of tomorrow bringing peace in any way?
Must the world live in the shadow of atomic fear?
Can they win the fight for peace or will they disappear? Yeah!

So you children of the world listen to what I say
If you want a better place to live in spread the word today
Show the world that love is still alive you must be brave,
Or you children of today are children of the grave. Yeah!

Children of the Grave
Children of the Grave
Children of the Grave

A National Acrobat

I am the world that hides the universal secret of all time.
Destruction of the empty spaces is my one and only crime.
I've lived a thousand times, I found out what it means to be believe.
The thoughts and images, the unborn child that never was conceived.

When little worlds collide I'm trapped inside my embryonic cell.
And flashing memories are cast into the never ending well-hell.
The name that scorns the face, the child that never sees the cause of man.
The deathly darkness that belies the fate of those who never ran.

You gotta believe me,
I'm talking to you.

Well, I know its hard for you to know the reason why.
And I know you'll understand more when it's time to die.
Don't believe the life you have will be the only one.
You have to let your body sleep to let your soul live on.

I want you to listen,
I'm try'n' ta get through.

Love has given life to you and now it's your concern.
Unseen eye of inner light will make your soul return.
Still I look but not to touch the seeds of life are sown.
Curtain of the future falls, the secret stays unknown.

Just remember love is life, and hate is living death.
Treat your life for what it's worth and live for ev'ry breath.
Looking back I've lived and learned, But still now I'm wondering.
Here I wait and only guess what this next life will bring.
Ha Ha!

[melian]

It doesn't matter if we all die
Ambition in the back of a black car
In a high building there is so much to do
Going home time
A story on the radio

Something small falls out of your mouth
And we laugh
A prayer for something better
A prayer
For something better

Please love me
Meet my mother
But the fear takes hold
Creeping up the stairs in the dark
Waiting for the death blow
Waiting for the death blow
Waiting for the death blow

Stroking your hair as the patriots are shot
Fighting for freedom on television
Sharing the world with slaughtered pigs
Have we got everything?
She struggles to get away . . .

The pain
And the creeping feeling
A little black haired girl
Waiting for Saturday
The death of her father pushing her
Pushing her white face into the mirror
Aching inside me
And turn me round
Just like the old days
Just like the old days
Just like the old days
Just like the old days

Caressing an old man
And painting a lifeless face
Just a piece of new meat in a clean room
The soldiers close in under a yellow moon
All shadows and deliverance
Under a black flag
A hundred years of blood
Crimson
The ribbon tightens round my throat
I open my mouth
And my head bursts open
A sound like a tiger thrashing in the water
Thrashing in the water
Over and over
We die one after the other
Over and over
We die one after the other
One after the other
One after the other
One after the other
One after the other

It feels like a hundred years
A hundred years
A hundred years
A hundred years
A hundred years
One hundred years

[melian]

I chose an eternity of this
Like falling angels
The world disappeared
Laughing into the fire
Is it always like this?
Flesh and blood and the first kiss
The first colours
The first kiss

We writhed under a red light
Voodoo smile
Siamese twins
A girl at the window looks at me for an hour
Then everything falls apart
Broken inside me
It falls apart

The walls and the ceiling move in time
Push a blade into my hands
Slowly up the stairs
And into the room
Is it always like this?

Dancing in my pocket
Worms eat my skin
She glows and grows
With arms outstretched
Her legs around me

In the morning I cried

Leave me to die
You won't remember my voice
I walked away and grew old
You never talk
We never smile
I scream
You're nothing
I don't need you any more
You're nothing

It fades and spins
Fades and spins

Sing out loud
We all die
Laughing into the fire

Is it always like this?
Is it always like this?
Is it always like this?

[Seth]

These are the darkest clouds
To have surrounded me
Now I find my self alone caught in a cage
There's no flower to be found in here
Not withering
Or pale to me
Everyone with a friendly face
Seems to hide some secret inside

He told me he loved me
While he laughed in my face
He just led me astray
He took my virtue
I feel so cold inside
Sorrow has frozen my mind

My heart is covered
With thoughts entangled
How could it ever have felt so real?
Is there a place more lonely than I feel within?
Could I have seen?
Could I have known?
I just took it as the truth
Everyone with a friendly face
Seems to hide some secret inside
Always there to remind me
To keep me from believing
That someone might be there
Who'll free me and never ever leave me

[Seth]

Ours is not to question the reasons why
Crippled indecision repeats the path I once denied
Insignificant, am I?
The color of sundown, of crimson sky
The beauty that breaks down
And gives the day unto the night

And then one day you'll realize
Just a speck in the spectrum
Insignificant, am I?
And then one day you'll realize
The beauty that breaks down
Never knows the reason why

Scan my horizon as blue turns to black
The sky is gone again
And all beneath are born to die
Insignificant, am I?

And then one day you'll realize
Just a speck in the spectrum
Insignificant, am I?
And then one day you'll realize
The beauty that breaks down
Never knows the reason why

Μετά τα τελευταία γεγονότα, είπα να πω δυό λέξεις. Αλλά επειδή πίσω απο τις λέξεις κρύβεται ο Αλέξης...
Είπα να γράψω κανένα τραγουδάκι.
Όλοι μαζί...

Ήταν ένας γάτος μαύρος πονηρός
κάθε που εβράδιαζε ντύνοταν γαμπρός
τα μαλλιά του έκανε λίγο κατσαρά
και ένα κόκκινο παπιγιόν φορούσε στην ουρά
σε κάθε σπίτι πήγαινε όπου έβλεπε καπνό
ζητούσε τα κορίτσια δήθεν για σκοπό
αυτές άλλο δεν θέλανε φορούσαν νυφικά
κάλλιο με έναν γάτο παρά με κοιλαρά
Μα όπως είπα στην αρχή,
ο γάτος πονηρός
βόλευε τα κορίτσια
και γίνονταν καπνός
Με τόση καρπερότητα,
αχ να 'χα μια σταλιά
γέμισαν τα ιδρύματα
με μπάσταρδα γατιά
Οι άρχοντες φοβήθηκαν μην πάθουνε ζημιά
και την κουτάλα χάσουνε μαζί με τα ζουμιά
"Ρε θες να κάνουν κίνημα του γάτου οι καρποί;"
κι ό,τι γλυκά ροκάνιζαν σα φούσκα να χαθεί
Έτσι αφού σκεφτήκανε βρήκαν το πιο σωστό
τον γάτο να τσακώσουνε σα μούτρο αναρχικό
Βγήκε λοιπόν σεργιάνι το χαφιεδότσουρμο
αυτοί που αποτελούνε τον εθνικό κορμό

Αχ καημένε γάτο μου,
την έχεις πια βαμμένη
του έθνους τα λαγωνικά
στην έχουνε στημένη
Κι όπως το λεω έγινε,
το πιάσανε το αλάνι
τους είδε μαύρους νόμιζε
με φίλους πως θα κάνει
Τώρα κλαιει κι οδύρεται, μαζεύεται κουβάρι
μήπως τους κρύους δικαστές μπορέσει να τουμπάρει
"Αχ μη καλοί μου άνθρωποι, εγώ δεν είμαι γάτος
εγώ είμαι ένας άνθρωπος μ' αισθήματα γεμάτος"
"Κοιτάζω το συμφέρον μου, διαβάζω εφημερίδα
και στο στρατό υπηρέτησα για τη μαμά πατρίδα"
μα 'κείνοι που ν' ακούσουνε,
τον στήσανε στον τοίχο
τα μάτια κάπως παίξανε
στης τουφεκιάς τον ήχο
Αν μία κόρη έχετε,
κρατήστε την αθώα
μπορεί ο γάτος να μη 'ρθει
μα θα 'ρθουν άλλα ζώα
Κι αν είστε κάποιος άρχοντας
και παρεξηγηθείτε
στα όργανά μου μια χαρά,
χωράει να γραφτείτε...

Αφιερωμένο εξαιρετικά,
Σε όλους όσους προσπαθούν να γίνουν αφεντικά,
Σε όσους κάνουν εταιρείες,
Και μέσα στο νετ λένε αηδίες.

Αφιερωμένο σε όλες τις κουφάλες που θα κατέβω στην ζωή μου.

[Drymonia]

Ένα άκρως ερωτικό και ψυχολογικό τραγούδι του Μανώλη Αναγνωστάκη,.. μια και πλησιάζει η γιορτούλα..


Το Σκάκι

Έλα να παίξουμε...
Θα σου χαρίσω τη βασίλισσά μου
Ήταν για μένα μια φορά η αγαπημένη
Τώρα δεν έχω πια αγαπημένη
Θα σου χαρίσω τους πύργους μου
Τώρα πια δεν πυροβολώ τους φίλους μου
Έχουν πεθάνει από καιρό
πριν από μένα

Όλα, όλα και τ' άλογά μου θα στα δώσω
Όλα, όλα και τ' άλογά μου θα στα δώσω
Μονάχα ετούτο τον τρελό μου θα κρατήσω
που ξέρει μόνο σ' ένα χρώμα να πηγαίνει

δρασκελώντας την μιαν άκρη ως την άλλη
γελώντας μπρος στις τόσες πανοπλίες σου
μπαίνοντας μέσα στις γραμμές σου ξαφνικά
αναστατώνοντας τις στέρεες παρατάξεις

Έλα να παίξουμε...

Ο βασιλιάς αυτός δεν ήτανε ποτέ δικός μου
Κι ύστερα τόσους στρατιώτες τι τους θέλω!
Τραβάνε μπρος σκυφτοί δίχως καν όνειρα

Όλα, όλα, και τ' άλογά μου θα στα δώσω
Όλα, όλα, και τ' άλογά μου θα στα δώσω
Μονάχα ετούτο τον τρελό μου θα κρατήσω
που έρει μόνο σ' ένα χρώμα να πηγαίνει

δρασκελώντας την μιαν άκρη ως την άλλη
γελώντας μπρος στις τόσες πανοπλίες σου
μπαίνοντας μέσα στις γραμμές σου ξαφνικά
αναστατώνοντας τις έριες παρατάξεις

Έλα να παίξουμε...
Κι αυτή δεν έχει τέλος η παρτίδα...
