MELHORES MÚSICAS / MAIS TOCADAS
epica - feint
The very brightest candle of all has been extinguished
Smothered by those who could not bear to face reality
Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
Made foundations quiver
Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break
And I shiver...
The leftover tallow just doesn?t contain
All the right answers
Under a sea of dust lies a vast wealth of wisdom
An untuched snow turns red
Innocence dies
This black page in history is not colourfast,
will stain the next
All that remains is just a feint of what was meant to be
This black page in history is not colourfast,
will stain the next
And nothing seems in life,
in dreams like what was meant to be??
epica - cry for the moon
Follow your common sense
You cannot hide yourself
Behind a fairytale forever and ever
Only by revealing the whole truth can we disclose
The soul of this sick bulwark forever and ever
Forever and ever
Indoctrinated minds so very often
Contain sick thoughts
And commit most of the evil they preach against
Don't try to convince me with messages from God
You accuse us of sins
Committed by yourselves
It's easy to condemn without looking in the mirror
Behind the scenes opens reality
Eternal silence cries out for justice
Forgiveness is not for sale
Nor is the will to forget
Follow your common sense...
Virginity has been stolen at very young ages
And the extinguisher loses it's immunity
Morbid abuse of power in the garden of Eden
Where the apple gets a youthful face
Eternal silence cries out for justice
Forgiveness is not for sale
Nor is the will to forget
Follow your common sense...
Eternal silence cries out for justice
Forgiveness is not for sale
Nor is the will to forget
You can't go on hiding yourself
Behind old fashioned fairytales
And keep washing your hands in innocence
epica - solitary ground
Living at different places
Evading into various spaces
My compass has broken
I'm losing the way
An ongoing madness has led me astray
My past breathes down my neck and
It seems now that all I can do is go back to beginnings,
When all lay ahead,
A fading illusion now plagues me instead
(Chorus)
In me
There's still a place that
Fulfils me,
A sanctity here that I call home,
I run to,
When winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground?
I follow elusive paths, oh!
It seems they've been written in stone and the
Door to a new life is closing so fast
Burning the bridges will not bring me back
(Chorus)
In me
There's still a place that
Fulfils me,
A sanctity here that I call home,
I run to,
When winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground?
In me
There's still a place that
Fulfils me,
A sanctity here that I call home,
I run to,
When winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground?
I know that in me
There's still a place that
Fulfils me,
A sanctity here that I call home,
I run to,
When winter descends
If I try, can I find solid ground?
Or am I just wasting time?
epica - the phantom agony
I can?t see you, I can?t hear you
Do you still exist?
I can?t feel you, I can?t touch you,
Do you exist?
The Phantom Agony
I can?t taste you, I can?t think of you,
Do we exist at all?
[II. Between hope and despair]
The future doesn?t pass
And the past won?t overtake the present
All that remains is an obsolete illusion
We are afraid of all the things that could not be
A phantom agony
Do we dream at night
Or do we share the same old fantasy?
I am a silhouette of the person wandering in my dreams
We are afraid of all the things that could not be
A phantom agony
Tears of unprecedented beauty
Reveal the truth of existence
We?re all sadists
The age-old development of consciousness
Drives us away from the essence of life
We meditate too much,
so that our instincts will fade away
They fade away
What?s the point of life
And what?s the meaning if we all die in the end?
Does it make sense to learn or do we forget everything?
We are afraid of all the things that could not be
A phantom agony
Tears of unprecedented beauty
Reveal the truth of existence
We?re all pessimists
The age-old development of consciousness
Drives us away from the essence of life
We meditate too much,
so that our instincts will fade away
They fade away
Teach me how to see and free the disbelief in me
What we get is what we see, the Phantom Agony
A te spiritus noster devoratur et nostra anima capitur..
[III. Nevermore]
The lucidity of my mind has been revealde in new dreams
I am able to travel where my heart goes
In search of self-realisation
This is the way to escape from our agitation
And develop ourselves
Use your illusion and enter my dream...
epica - angel of death
Auschwitz, The meaning of pain
The way that I want you to die
Slow death, immense decay
Showers that cleanse you of your life
Forced in
Like cattle
You run
Stripped of
Your life's worth
Human mice, for the Angel of Death
Four hundred thousand more to die
Angel of Death
Monarch to the kingdom of the dead
Sadistic, surgeon of demise
Sadist of the noblest blood
Destroying, Without mercy
To benefit the Aryan race
Surgery, with no anesthesia
Feel the knife pierce you intensely
Inferior, No use to mankind
Strapped down screaming out to die
Angel of Death
Monarch to the kingdom of the dead
Infamous butcher
Angel of Death
Pumped with fluid, inside your brain
Pressure in your skull begins pushing through your eyes
Burning flesh, Drips away
Test of heat burns your skin, Your mind starts to boil
Frigid cold, Cracks your limbs
How long can you last
In this frozen water burial?
Sewn together, Joining heads
Just a matter of time
'Til you rip yourselves apart
Millions laid out in their
Crowded tombs
Sickening ways to achieve
The holocaust
Seas of blood, Bury life
Smell your death as it burns
Deep inside of you
Abacinate, eyes that bleed
Praying for the end of
Your wide awake nightmare
Wings of pain, Reach out for you
His face of death staring down,
Your blood running cold
Injecting cells, Dying eyes
Feeding on the screams of
The mutants he's creating
Pathetic harmless victims
Left to die
Rancid Angel of Death
Flying free
Angel of Death
Monarch to the kingdom of the dead
Infamous butcher
Angel of Death
Angel of Death
epica - memory
Midnight, not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory?
She is smiling alone
In the lamplight
The withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan
Memory, all alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days
Life was beautiful then
I remember
The time I knew what happiness is
Let the memory live again
Every street lamp
Seems to beat
A fatalistic warning
Someone mutters
And a street lamp gutters
And soon it will be morning
Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life
And I mustn't give in
When the dawn comes
Tonight will be a memory too
And a new day will begin
Burnt out ends of smokey days
The stale cold smell of morning
The street lamp dies
Another night is over
Another day is dawning
Touch me, it's so easy to leave me
All alone with my memory
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me
You'll understand what happiness is
Look a new day has begun...
epica - adyta
The Neverending Embrace
Prelude
O nate vulnerate
Cito veni ad me
Te amplectar et vulnera tua lingam
Utinam te haberem, mi amor caelestis
epica - sensorium
Chance doesn?t exist but the path of life is not totally so predestined
And time and chronology show us how all should be in the ways of existence
To find out why we are here....
Being conscious is a torment!
The more we learn is the less we get.
No one survives the whole. Focus on things so small, but life?s objective is to make it meaningful!
Only Searching for this; that which doesn?t exist.
Although our ability to relativize remains unclear.
Being conscious is a torment!
The more we learn is the less we get.
Every answer contains a new quest; a quest to not existence, a journey with no end.
?I?m not afraid to die! I?m afraid to be alive without being aware of it.?
I?m so afraid to, I couldn?t stand to waste all my energy in things that do not matter anymore.
Our future has already been written by us alone, but we don?t grasp the meaning of our programmed course of life, we only fear what comes and smell death every day.
Our future has already been wasted by us alone and we just let it happen and do not worry at all.
Our future has already been written by us alone, but we don?t grasp the meaning of our programmed course of life, we only fear what comes and smell death every day.
Search for the answers that lie beyond!
Being conscious is a torment!
The more we learn is the less we get.
Every answer contains a new quest; a quest to not existence, a journey with no end.
epica - illusive consensus
So sweet caress, never long to last!
You entered my soul and gave hope to my life.
So sweet caress, never hope to last!
You left me behind all alone and aghast
Capured inside such an austere Elysium
Imperfect feelings, futile greef
Love a device against all solitude
As it all went on, the love became
A field in a dream that once had been real
So sweet caress, never long to last!
Destroy this illusion we need a change of fate!
Your frantic thoughts are only a condemned cry
Primo somniare videbamur
deinde veritas se praecipitavit
I secretly longed for something
which had never existed
First I thought it was a dream
but then it smashed into reality
Beautiful on the outside, decayed deeply within
I secretly longed for something
which had never existed
Devoted to a body without a soul
Numquam non tibi diffidam.
epica - quietus
The culprit, you act before thinking
Caught in your ignorant sin
And lying to your own reflection
You thought you could hide.
Deprived of my own innocence denied...
The infinity of recurring torment
Your comeuppance!
See, hear the torture inside
Devouring what was left of my pride
You thought it?s not going to happen to you
Thought you could hide.
Deprived of my own innocence denied...
The infinity of recurring torment
Your comeuppance!
Dwelling in a mind
Mixed up and your regret
Has spread over the sea.
Deprived of my own innocence denied...
The infinity of recurring torment
Your comeuppance!
Dwelling in a mind
Mixed up and your regret
Has spread over the sea.
epica - avalanche
Feels like living in a dream
From which I cannot wake
Voices leading me astray
Cannot hide
Feels like I am growing weaker
I can't deny
Whatever's hurting me
Won't leave me
Here at ease
And I can see your secrecy
Has gone away
In another time
You left me
For someone else
Who'd serve your every needs
And set your
World apart
The strain is now
Unbearable,
Turned me to stone
For all the hardship in my way
Hold on, move on
Hear me!
How hide your face while you carry on 'till the grief comes
Save your soul from the downfall
To give and take was not an option
You have to run and sweep it all away
Leave not a heart to mend
That day I cast so far behind, I'm moving on
For all the stones thrown in my face
Hold on, move on
See me!
Now hide your face while
You carry on 'till the grief comes
Save your soul from the downfall
Feels like living in a dream from which I cannot wake
I don't wanna hide
They are tearing me apart
You cannot pray for laughter
You cannot wake
Degenerate the love and hate
We should always ever keep in mind
Our tragedy's not far behind
Kneeling in disaster
Through all the doubt I can't allay
Hold on, move on
Now
As it was meant to be
Suffering's a travesty
Obliterate our past mistakes
We should never lose sight or well find
A travesty renewed in time
Chasing ever faster
Feels like living in a dream from which I cannot wake
I don't wanna hide
They are tearing me apart
You cannot pray for laughter
I cannot decide
I cannot wake
I cannot pray
Feels like living in a dream
From which I cannot wake
Voices leading me astray
Cannot pray
epica - never enough
Can't you hear me screaming once again?
Voices you can't hear
Because you are consumed and incontent
With everlasting greed
Don't you see me on my hands and knees?
Begging and bleeding
You're smiling as you bite the hand that feeds
But will you never see?
Always wanting what your eyes can't see
(needing what your arms can't reach)
Thinking you are in need,
Always hearing what your ears can't hear
(feeling what your hands can't touch)
Thinking you're incomplete
It was,
Never enough that I gave to you
All of the horror that you've put me through
Now can't I make up my mind this time?
This is where I will draw the line
Sacrificed my life to be with you
(Why did you leave me?)
There's nothing more from me you can consume
Cause you are incomplete
Always wanting what your eyes can't see
(needing what your arms can't reach)
Thinking you are in need,
Always hearing what your ears can't hear
(feeling what your hands can't touch)
Thinking you're incomplete
It was,
Never enough that I gave to you
All of the horror that you've put me through
Now can't I make up my mind this time?
This is where I will draw the line
Everlasting need
Would you please?
Answer me and
Make me complete
Everlasting greed
Would you please?
Set me free
Fulfil all my needs and make me complete
It was,
Never enough that I gave to you
All of the horror that you've put me through
Now can't I make up my mind this time?
This is where I will draw the line
Never again will I be with you
No promise eternal carrying us through
I finally made up my mind this time
This is the end, I've drawn the line
Never enough to devour your greed
epica - chasing the dragon
Free my mind
Heal my scars
Erase the past
Dark days to forget
And Memories to last
In my heart
Free me now
Make me forget
And forgive
There's no use
To go on and live
Show me a way
To the sun
Heal my scars
Chorus
Nothing will be forever gone
Memories will stay, and find their way
What goes around will come around
Don't deny your fears
So let them go and fade into light
Give up the fight here
Let my eyes take in
The beauty that's here
That's left on this earth
My ears long to hear
A melody
Give me sight
Chorus
Nothing will be forever gone
Memories will stay, and find their way
What goes around will come around
Don't deny your fears
So let them go and fade into light
Give up the fight here
Poison is slowly seeping through my veins
Stealing the only dignity in me
I pick them up and let them fall
To cause your pain and hit them all
One more life to live is all I want
I'll take the joy away from them
See to it, they will all be damned
One more chance to heal what I have harmed
The dragon is wreaking havoc in my brain
Plays my emotion, a never ending game
Chorus
Nothing will be forever gone
Memories will stay, and find their way
What goes around will come around
Don't deny your fears
So let them go and fade into light
Give up the fight here
One more life to live for me
I want the night just to colour the day
The morning to chase all my nightmares away
Don't you deny that we're all human beings
We all have our flaws that can make us obscene
Obscene...
Give me what I want
Give me what I need right now
That's what I want
That's what I need, get it!
Dolendo novit mortalis vitam
Tell me what I want
Tell me what I need right now
That's what I want
That's all I need, cure me
Dolendo discit mori mortalis
Losers
Chorus
Nothing will be forever gone
Memories will stay, and find their way
What goes around will come around
Don't deny your fears
So let them go and fade into light
Give up the fight
epica - run for a fall
Run For A Fall
Do not use the past as an alibi
For all of your deficiencies always standing by
Face your negligence, do not fool yourself
Shortcomings will soon appear
For weakness shows itself
Blind from your success and all of the excess
Deaf from the praise you had
Don't cry out of self pity
In forcing your way through
For I will not be vulnerable
To slander made by you
In a misty veil, misplaced
Where castles in the air will be no longer seen
As something out of reach
In time the dream will be erased
So many things will never be
The way they seemed
And pride will have it's fall at last
Her eyes fell
While the shame was written on her face
When she realised that her failures
Could never be undone again
You did not notice the manipulated hand
That overshadowed your thoughts all those years
That made you insecure
You did not notice the ancient shifting sand
That pulls you down into an everlasting sham
You will never be able to fight
Never be able to hide
Run for a fall, you'd better run
epica - the fifth guardian
(Instrumental)
