beautiful marriage of imagery and theme Isabella. :heart:

By beauty and by fear,
Along with hunger's tears.
By the last of the day's heat,
The broken women weep.
So take my dying soul.
It never felt so old.
I thank my enemy
For having thought of me.
Desires on the shadow of God.
Who becomes the last to fall?
Hate, in the soul of them all.
Do we live, awakened, hoping?
Raise your eyes to him, for him.
Here it comes, closer, closer.
At every hour death seems closer.
Long shadows surround me, call me.
I feel its hand upon me.
I smell its death upon me.
And its midnight conquers me.
And now – it is me!
Carry the old words home
And lay them into stone.
As hard as the earth,
We leave a cold new curse.
Unknown words lying
Under my speech dying.
Where the altar should have been,
Can no longer be seen.
I'd seen bastions fall,
And I pity your war.
I seize your thorn
And I am known to all whores.
I danced in a dream.
I did not make a sound.
I have seen what
I cannot receive.
Whispering my given name.
Unfurls the fingers of flame.
Nameless sons and daughters of sin.
Step forward when you hear the bells ring.

Gazing through the window at the world outside
Wondering, will Mother Earth survive?
Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her, sometime
After all there's only just the two of us
And here we are still fighting for our lives
Watching all of history repeat itself, time after time
I'm just a dreamer, I dream my life away
I'm just a dreamer, who dreams of better days
I watch the sun go down like everyone of us
I'm hoping that the dawn will bring a sign
A better place for those who will come after us, this time
I'm just a dreamer, I dream my life away
I'm just a dreamer, who dreams of better days
Your higher power maybe God or Jesus Christ
It doesn't really matter much to me
Without each other's help there ain't no hope for us
I'm living in a dream of fantasy
If only we could all just find serenity
It would be nice if we could live as one
When will all this anger, hate and bigotry be gone?

One, two, three
If you close the door
The night could last forever
Leave the sunshine out
And say hello to never

All the people are dancing
And they're having such fun
I wish it could happen to me

But if you close the door
I'd never have to see the day again

If you close the door
The night could last forever
Leave the wine-glass out
And drink a toast to never

Oh, someday I know
Someone will look into my eyes
And say hello
You're my very special one

But if you close the door
I'd never have to see the day again

Dark party bars, shiny Cadillac cars
And the people on subways and trains
Looking gray in the rain,
As they stand disarrayed
Oh, but people look well in the dark

And if you close the door
The night could last forever
Leave the sunshine out
And say hello to never

All the people are dancing
And they're having such fun
I wish it could happen to me

Cause if you close the door
I'd never have to see the day again
I'd never have to see the day again,
Once more
I'd never have to see the day again

Oh my love for the first time in my life
My eyes are wide open
Oh my lover for the first time in my life
My eyes can see
I see the wind
Oh, I see the trees
Everything is clear in my heart
I see the clouds
Oh, I see the sky
Everything is clear in our world
Oh my love for the first time in my life
My mind is wide open
Oh my lover for the first time in my life
My mind can feel
I feel the sorrow
Oh, I feel dreams
Everything is clear in my heart
I feel life
Oh, I feel love
Everything is clear in our world

You'd love to be so far away
It's not a long way to go, it's gonna end in your pain
Greet open handed stranger
Create the turmoil, you're not sane
I want the last one to go to embers will revive,
So stay
You want to live a life time each and every day
You've struggled before, I swear to do it again
You've told it before till I, until I'm weakened and sore
Seek hallowed land
You'd love to see right through my veins
The pale reflection tells all, predominations sustain
Crawl over land or mountain in
Sight the ultimate escape
A silhouette subsiding, enticed unable to relate
You want to live a lifetime each and every day
You've beckoned before, you'll never do it again
You've prayed before who are the prayers for
Begone the fools that lead me - I need not to know
Accept reclining spirit I need to endure
You try to live a lifetime each and every day
In this short time of promise, you're a memory...


I’m starting to suspect we may have uncovered the need for a new thread...

I've been looking so long at these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they're real
I've been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures
Are all I can feel
Remembering you standing quiet in the rain
As I ran to your heart to be near
And we kissed as the sky fell in
Holding you close
How I always held close in your fear
Remembering you running soft through the night
You were bigger and brighter and wider than snow
And we screamed at the make-believe
Screamed at the sky
And you finally found all your courage
To let it all go
Remembering you fallen into my arms
Crying for the death of your heart
You were stone white
So delicate
Lost in the cold
You were always so lost in the dark
Remembering you how you used to be
Slow drowned
You were angels
So much more than everything
Hold for the last time then slip away quietly
Open my eyes
But I never see anything
If only I'd thought of the right words
I could have held on to your heart
If only I'd thought of the right words
I wouldn't be breaking apart
All my pictures of you
Looking so long at these pictures of you
But I never hold on to your heart
Looking so long for the words to be true
But always just breaking apart
My pictures of you
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to feel you deep in my heart
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to never feel the breaking apart
All my pictures of you




(( for a dear friend )) :heart:

I've always loved that one too!

It would definitely make a great new thread :)

Indeed: lyrics then YouTube link of any song you fancy...
And anyone can use the lyrics as a ‘trigger warning’ for songs they may prefer not to listen to! :D

Better leave a question after all the lyrical fun above! :lol:

Let me see...

Do you have a preference for certain numbers over others?

Odd numbers, except for 9.

3 and 5 are the best.

Same question

Yes, some numbers have significant meaning to me and others I associate with bad things.

What is your favorite letter of the alphabet?

Do you like dimmer switches for lighting?

Hi, Amity, fancy seeing you here :)

I have a bee in my bonnet with lights - I hate white bright light, especially looking directly at it. In most of the house, I have strips of lights placed behind furniture, that can be dimmed or set to various colours or a warmer tone.

Same q

I have dimmers everywhere but I seldom even put lights on. I use candles.

Same question
