Almost done with Nick Drake's Pink Moon. And the storm just started, so after this one I'm gonna crawl up to my room and listen Tom Waits' Blue Valentine before I got to go from home.

Sonata Arctica- White pearl, Black oceans

 

 

 

 

 

Even though some of their songs are just kind of O.K, this one is simply amazing. lyrics, presentation, everything... just a beautiful song.

 

 

 

 

 

I was born and raised by the sea, shy yet proud,

 

Learned to stay away from the crowd

 

In my home, my lighthouse...

 

101 steps round and down

 

New Years Eve, one night on the town

 

Can change one life into eternity...

 

 

 

All I could see, her eyes,

 

We got caught in the moment, all of the night

 

Taken beyond all lines,

 

In silence leaving 'em all behind

 

 

 

She had found the sails, for the following night

 

The town, for her, was getting way too small

 

She promised to be mine

 

Forever, ...for that one night...

 

 

 

Moments, passion, small defeats

 

Concealed emotions, found in me

 

"You gave life to a brand new me..."

 

 

 

Crossing the wintry fields,

 

The first hour of morning light

 

Warmed by the flame inside,

 

The lasting memory of the ending night

 

 

 

I never had a chance to stop what hit me...

 

What broke my bones and mauled me...

 

After hours of deep, unwilling sleep... in a cold shelter

 

Fell back in the dark, and the hours of the day passed...

 

 

 

A nightmare awakes me, blinking light!

 

There's no guide, blind ships in the night

 

Oh blood red moon, eat away the night

 

 

 

Darkness covers my lonely soul,

 

No one to feed the dying light...

 

 

 

Good morn', oh dreadful day,

 

I prayed the moon had lit the sea instead of me...

 

For the sails of night,

 

"Please tell me everything's alright..."

 

 

 

My voice in the room broke the silence,

 

Everybody killed me with their eyes...

 

What I was to hear made the people cry,

 

Impossible for me to keep the tears inside

 

 

 

"All on board the White Pearl have died,

 

Coastal reef has tolled their lives

 

And you are the light of the night..."

 

 

 

One thing, I remember, before I fell on the ground...

 

Although I never saw the face,

 

A name was inked in his arm...

 

 

 

Love can be like poetry of demons, or maybe

 

God loves complex irony?

 

The family name stated I had seen before...

 

Written on her front door...

 

 

 

"Silence in the courthouse!"

 

A presence in the room, we both could feel

 

The father of her unborn child and me

 

 

 

All on board the White Pearl have died,

 

Coastal reef have tolled their lives

 

While I was the guide light...

 

Back in my tower, run, run, run

 

Light is out, I hope to see

 

Black oceans beneath rise and swallow me

 

 

 

One step will take me back inside, another sees my end

 

No one can love a man who guarded the light

 

That died one faithful night, so many lives...

 

Flaming eyes I must confront before I'm stated free

 

 

 

Defining innocence is hell, after all that has past...

 

Building new walls inside my eternal night...

 

Although they took my heart and dried me up

 

Sometimes I still bleed...

 

 

 

Show me the way

 

The light will show me a way on the grisly reefs

 

Too many dead ends I see

 

No soul can save me

 

The respect I lost, the measure of a man...

 

 

 

10000 steps down, round and round

 

One night at the town and I'm hell bound

 

Black oceans beneath come and swallow me

 

All on the board White Pearl had died,

 

Coastal reef come claim my life

 

Black oceans beneath come and swallow me

 

 

 

My little tower, seal my fate

 

Help me pay back, end their hate

 

Black oceans beneath come and swallow me

 

One direction, down, down, down

 

Pitch black night for my old town

 

Black oceans beneath shall now swallow me

 

 

 

[sPOKEN]

 

I hereby commit thy body to the deep

 

To be turned into corruption

 

Looking for a resurrection of the body

 

When the sea shall give up her dead

 

And the life of the world to come, through our Lord

 

Amen

 

 

 

 

 

Bolded is my favorite part.

Reverend Kriss Hades - Winds Over Orion

 

Like two years ago, my old guitar teacher showed me a tiny bit of his stuff. It didn't really click with me, but for the past month or two I'd been trying to remember his name so I could check out his stuff again. I finally remembered the other day, and got a bit of it. It's pretty weird, but cool.

 

 

 

and
