"Sapphire" songtext
"Sapphire"
[German:]
So - wie Du bist
Zeig Dich mir - wenn Du brennst
Wenn Du Dich an mich verlierst
Halte fest an meinem Blick!
So - wie Du bist
Lass uns fliehen - der Welt entgleiten
Lass Dich atmen - Dich entreissen
Sieh' mich an - und folge mir!
So - wie Du bist
Lass uns fliehen - lass Dich atmen
Halte fest - und folge mir!
So - wie ich Dich
Durchflute mich - verschwende Dich
Halt mich fest - ich folge Dir
So - wie ich Dich
Erstürme mich - ergiesse Dich
Halte fest - und folge mir!
Ich - hab' mir vertraut
Und doch hab' ich mir nicht geglaubt
Der Strom der mich umspülte
Und der mich hierher führte
Versickert tief im Grund
Ich komme nicht zur Ruhe
Verfluche meine unendlich
Tatenlose unverfälschte Suche
Nach dem Ziel das viel zu fern
Und doch zu Füssen mir erscheint
Verloren stehe ich im Spiegel
Aufgebrannt erkenn' ich meine
Tatenlose unerfüllte Leere
Wie ein Wolf - als wenn ich etwas suchte
Das zu finden sich noch lohnte
Hier - trage ich
So wie Du mich - in den Tag
Hier sind wir fremd - und verbrannt
Im Morgenlicht - das uns zerbricht
Halte fest am meinem Blick!
[English translation:]
Just - as you are
Show yourself to me - when you burn
When you lose yourself to me
Hold on to my glance!
Just - as you are
Let us flee and slip away from the world
Let yourself breathe and pull away
Look at me - and follow me!
Just - as you are
Let us flee - let yourself breathe
Hold on - and follow me!
Just - as I do
Flood me - waste yourself
Hold me tight - I'm following you
Just - as I do to you
Conquer me - empty yourself
Hold on - and follow me!
I trusted myself
And yet I did not believe myself
The current that surrounded me
And brought me here
Drains away deep into the ground
I find no peace
Curse my endless
Idle, unadultered search
For the aim that much too distant
And yet to my feet appears to me
Lost, I stand in the mirror
Burned out, I recognise my
Idle, unfulfilled void
Like a wolf - as if I were searching for something
That would be worth finding
Here - I take it all
As you take me - into the day
Here we are strangers - and burned out
In the morning light - that will destroy us
Hold on to my glance!

My Dying Bride - "The Cry Of Mankind" You can't expect to see him and survive
You'll swallow his tongue of thorns
His mouth, dripping with flies
In his glorious kingdom of fire
But I believe he wept
I will make them all lie down
Down...
Paradise Lost - "Forsaken" What we don't know will set us free
Until tomorrow
What we don't show the enemy
Breaks them all to follow
What we don't show can never be
Until tomorrow
What we don't see, the agony
Await the call...
Draconian - "Death, Come Near Me" By day I sleep, at night I weep!
O Death, come near me!
Be the one, for me, be the one, the one, who stays.
My rivers, are frozen, and mischosen,
And the shadows, around me, sickens my heart.

Clan Of Xymox - "No Words" Out in the night
It could be fun
It could be fun
It could be fun
No words to explain
No words in my mouth
No words in my mind
But the gesture said it all
And the words refined it all
I saw how you...
Epica - "In All Conscience" Allow me to write my final words
I can't stand this anymore
Hold me when the time has come
Cause I don't want to be alone
In my heart you're still here, it's the bond that we share
I can feel you're...
