    If I haven't plugged them already, Orphaned Land is a lyrical goldmine. Some of the most touching stuff I've ever heard and that says a lot.

    Waves that flow
    In the oceans of the stars
    Clusters bright and far

    Brave souls art thou
    Who tread the darkness
    In thy never ending way;
    Say thy names with pride.

    Candles in darkest night
    Bringers of hope ignite,
    Ye of clearest sight.

    Go in peace, and find thy faith,
    Evolve thy self, and lose all hate,
    So a heaven you may create.

    Like a cancer scare
    In the dentist's chair
    Sucking in the air
    Wire across the stair
    Kicking down the door
    At your local store
    With the world at war
    Voices through the floor
    Unexpected news
    Wearing high heeled shoes
    Blowing out the fuse
    Paying all your dues
    Deadwing lullaby
    Like a fracture tied
    It's a worthless lie
    To the public eye


    ~ Porcupine Tree - Deadwing

    Lol wut.

    This always makes me laugh cause 2 Chainz cannot do Twitter rap properly, nor rap very good:

    Did we really need the last part to explain the Twitter rap line?

    Orphaned Land is just one of those bands I think everyone needs to hear, even non-metalheads. Their themes are that meaningful.

    Rock Partyzani - Time to revolution

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hIGL9LZCgc

    Od Sibirije pa do Balkana
    Od Germanije do Grčije
    Od Vardarja pa vse do Triglava
    Sliši glas se revolucije

    Mi želimo si le mir na svetu
    In ljubezen za vse ljudi
    Srečo in svobodo na planetu
    Ki vse bolj gori in vse bolj diši po revoluciji

    Ras, dva, tri, c’mon dance with me
    This is time for revolution, can’t you see?
    Ras, dva, tri, Europe dance with me
    We must fight for love together and be free

    Spet odhajam draga v gozdove
    In moda me več ne bo nazaj
    Vem, da ti čakala me boš večno
    Zdaj se v slovo poljub mi daj

    Mi želimo si le mir na svetu
    In ljubezen za vse ljudi
    Srečo in svobodo na planetu
    Ki vse bolj gori in vse bolj diši po revoluciji

    Ras, dva, tri, c’mon dance with me
    This is time for revolution, can’t you see?
    Ras, dva, tri, Europe dance with me
    We must fight for love together and be free

    Ras, dva, tri, c’mon dance with me
    This is time for revolution, can’t you see?
    Ras, dva, tri, Europe dance with me
    We must fight for love together and be free

    Vsi za enega, eden za vse
    Naj nas vodi junaško srce
    Revolucija naj se začne
    Gremo v napad, gremo v napad, gremo v napad

    Ras, dva, tri, c’mon dance with me
    This is time for revolution, can’t you see?
    Ras, dva, tri, Europe dance with me
    We must fight for love together and be free

    Ras, dva, tri, c’mon dance with me
    This is time for revolution, can’t you see?

    It's funny how the music put times in perspective
    Add a soundtrack to your life and perfect it
    Whenever you are feeling blue keep walking and we can get far
    Wherever you are

    Like a movie that you can't predict
    Like a book that you can't resist
    I sing along a song that's oh so sensual
    bring along a sip to make it all so sexual
    verbally that is, making love to the music means vibing to the beat at night
    with the whole city fast asleep, out cold
    true words seem to rise to the lips, take hold
    of a poet in me, most powerfully
    I feel free when the world doesn't owe it to me
    It's so hard to find a gig that lives up to the billing,
    trying to find a reason to work, god willing
    I admit, my thinking is wishful
    like a star upon a child gazing up to the ceiling
    how far do we have to stretch the truth
    to fit the lifestyles borrowed and overdue
    we can take it all back to the register
    and start all over from the canister
    let's break it all down into pieces of bright
    moments that pass by like a meteorite
    throw on your favorite reel that's good to go
    on the analog player watch the people glow
    sit back to the breeze let the memories flow
    comedy tragedy all the highs and lows

    (chorus)

    Like your moves that I can't predict
    Like your look that I can't resist
    The ting-a-ling feeling was oh so mutual
    the lingering appeal was so unusual
    herbally what is, medicine to a lone soul can become poison to some
    with the whole body fast asleep, out cold
    true vision seem to come to the eye, take hold
    of a prophet in me most visibly
    I see clear when the world doesn't show it to me
    It's so hard to make sense in a cycle of billing,
    trying to find a reason to quit and make a killing
    I admit, our dealing is painful
    like a star upon a child staring down from the ceiling
    how far do we have to stretch the picture
    before pixelating the human texture
    we can take it all back to the register
    and start all over from the canister
    let's save it all up for an ultimate prize
    homecoming gathering with a big surprise
    throw on your favorite record that's good to go
    on the analog table and it's hooked to blow
    sit back with ease and hear the emcee flow
    hi hat kick drum all the highs and lows

    (chorus)

    okay we can take it all back to the register
    and start all over from the canister
    let's break it all down into pieces of bright
    moments that pass by like a meteorite
    throw on your favorite jacket and you're good to roll
    on the analog trail and you look the role
    just stroll through the trees and let your miseries go
    sunshine hurricane all the highs and lows

    we can take it all back to the register
    and start all over from the canister
    let's break it all down into pieces of bright
    moments that pass by like a meteorite

    Memorial Day is about to happen here in the States, so this feels appropriate. Sabaton gets them feels going.

    There is no "enemy", there is no "victory",
    Only boys who lost their lives in the sand;
    Young men were sacrificed
    Their names are carved in stone and candlelight
    And forever we will honor the memory of them

    How many wasted lives? How many dreams did fade away?
    Broken promises--they won't be coming home
    Oh mothers, wipe your tears
    Your sons will rest a million years
    Found their peace at last as foe turned to friend and forgave

    And they knew they would die...

    We're gonna take what's ours to have
    Spread fear throughout the land
    They say bad guys wear black
    We're tagged and can't turn back
    You see us coming and you all together
    RUN FOR COVER
    We're takin' over this town

    Tell me why - You took all that was mine
    Stay as you lay - don't lead me astray

    In the light of the flames by Nordman

    She fell on the witnesses of two boys in the village.
    Said to have partied at the Devil's fest.
    She's only 17 years old and along the path/way they go
    She's pushed forward like a animal,gleered at.
    She tries to reach the look of her loved.
    But she sees him turn and walk away.
    And among them who watch
    Is the punishment she gets
    A light on the proof they don't understand

    Does she play with wizardy and magic?
    Can she awake the fury of the sky?
    Woah, from the light of the flames
    Can she walk on water like they've said?
    Can she trick death with her might/power?
    Woah, in the light of the flames
