| Alestorm – Rumpelkombo Lyrics | 5 years ago |
| This song is a take that at Grave Digger. Once, Alestorm was touring with Grave Digger, and they were basically the opposite of Alestorm: old, cranky, and hated drinking and partying, so the entire tour pretty much consisted of Grave Digger hating Alestorm. During an interview, the lead singer, Chris Boltendahl described Alestorm as a "rumpelkombo," which basically means "group of rowdy idiots." Christopher Bowes then decided to write the really quick song where the only word is "rumpelkombo," but then credited the lyrics to Boltendahl, thus giving him a royalty check every month that's a couple of cents from Alestorm, reminding him of them every month. | |

English lyrics (they're different from the English version of the song) I look around and I see my home fade away My time at home now feels far too short Just a youth, barely a man when duty called me If i get to see my home again, that I do not know Amongst friends from my village, I went out to figtht And the world burned For war it can Destroy a man I give my life for my homeland But who will mourn me? So see me as A husband, a friend Father and son who never comes home But who will miss me? Went to fight for Sweden, was baptized in blood Out there where death awaits, not heroism In fields where kinsmen fall no song is heard Challenging our destiny one more time Far from home Baptized and die in battle And the world burned For war it can Destroy a man I give my life for my homeland But who will mourn me? So see me as A husband, a friend Father and son who never comes home But who will miss me? And when my time runs out Who cares then? They fight on Does a soldier get a worhty end? To fall asleep Pass away And never wake up For war it can Destroy a man I give my life for my homeland But who will mourn me? So see me as A husband, a friend Father and son who never comes home But who will miss me? |

| Imagine Dragons – Warriors Lyrics | 9 years ago |
|
(Because I forgot to put this with it) "As a child, you would wait And watch from far away. But you always knew that you'd be the one To work while they all play." This refers to casual LoL players, who dream with playing on great leagues like LCS, but "know that will work" while Professional LoL players play and win money. "And you, you lay, awake at night and scheme" - Players will spend hours creating the perfect builds for they're role's. Good Masteries, Runes, Item sets and Battle Plans can take hours to get right and test in actual gameplay. "Of all the things that you would change," - It refers to the dream of nearly every single player to someday make it to the Big Leagues (LCS) and do somethings their own way and in a sense change the meta of the game or how people see a certain aspect of the game. "But it was just a dream!" - No one at first honestly believes they will make it far in League, not to make money or to the finals. "Here we are, don't turn away now, We are the warriors that built this town." - No matter how hard it gets, no matter how many losses you suffer, the bad plays that occur, the mistakes that are made, you shouldn't turn away. It is through those failures that you become better. We are the reason league exists, we are the players, we are the fans, we are the warriors who fight in the rift, we are heroes getting better every time we play the game. "Here we are, don't turn away now," - It's talking about how the team has arrived at a great challenge, something that's going to be hard and nerve wracking. It's talking about how the team has arrived at a great challenge, something that's going to be hard and nerve wracking. "We are the warriors that built this town." - This is about how hard being in the LCS or competitive scene really is. They have to fight every day just to get to the top and not lose their job. It also mentions "[they] built this town" saying that pro players are a major part of the League of Legends community and popularity. "From Dust." - From absolute Nothing. League of Legends is a game built by the players originally as opposed to most games. Check out its history for more (League of Legends & Dota2 both spin offs from original player created MoBA Warcraft III game-mod, Defense of the Ancients) "The time will come, when you'll have to rise Above the best, and prove yourself, Your spirit never dies!" - When the time comes when the players skill are needed the player will rise, bring out brilliant plays, and dominate the battlefield. "Farewell, I've gone, to take my throne Above, don't weep for me Cause this will be the labor of my love" - This is when the League players go to worlds, they leave everything behind, to battle it out on the field until they have won the tournament. "We are the warriors that built this town." - The town is the competitive scene that is created around League of Legends and exists thanks to the community, because we are the heart of League of Legends. |

This is about three Brazilian soldiers of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force (AKA: Smoking Snakes) who, ambushed by Germans, fought until their ammo ran out and died in a bayonet charge. The Wehrmacht was so impressed that they buried the Brazilian soldiers with full honors and wrote on their graves "Three Brazilian heroes". Also: "Cobras fumantes eterna é sua vitória!" means "Smoking Snakes eternal is your victory!" |

English Trans (parenthesis denote alternate interpretations, '' denote the latin translations): I offer you my life Can you give me eternity? 'Violent death, the last day of life. Death, eternal sleep, in a coffin... Death The end.. The end.. The end.. The end..' I offer you my life! I stand before your altar. I don't know who I am or who I was. I hate this world, that only asks questions. They(She) don't(doesn't) love me. They(She) won't accept me. So how(why) am(is) I(she) embarrassed for myself(me)? What happens to me isn't interesting(She isn't interested in what happens to me.) Cut my veins out. Hang me and hit me. Pain and grief consumes me until the train of life runs me over. This world is so empty... I cannot live and don't want to anymore. 'The end.. The end.. The end.. The end..' I offer you my life! I stand before your altar. I don't know who I am or who I was. Can you give me eternity? 'Violent death, the last day of life. Death, eternal sleep, in a coffin... Death The end... Stench of the blood empty corpses. The last judgement rests. To the future and a deadly drink. In the grave the dead victim breaks apart. Corpses Song. The end.. The end.. The end.. The end..' I offer you my life! This world is so empty. I cannot live and don't want to anymore. |

XiiBroken, no it's about Global warming. "Glaciers melt as we pollute the sky" The fuck does that have /ANYTHING/ to do with the Holocaust? |
|
| Disturbed – Sacrifice Lyrics | 10 years ago |
|
I'm sorry but you're incorrect. Never Again is the only one that is directly referencing, and about, the Holocaust. Asylum is about loss of a love. Another Way to Die is about Global Warming ("Glaciers melt as we pollute the sky"). The Infection is about dealing with the depression after a bad break-up. Warrior is supposed to be the "one-up" to Indestructible(song). Crucified, is about someone the Jews don't believe in (hint, his name starts with "J" and ends with "ist"). My Child, FOR FUCKS SAKE, THAT ONE IS OBVIOUS! It's about how one of David's previous girlfriend's had a miscarriage right when David came to terms with being a father, only to have it ripped away. Innocence is about corrupt attorneys. The Animal is about werwolves. Serpentine is about women who act like succubi. Would you like to try again? :) |

This is incorrect. These are the proper Swedish Lyrics: Min tid nalkas, denna tid går mot sitt slut. Hela Stockholm ser mig krönas, Kanoner skjut salut. Ingen ed lagd, ingen ed jag svär! Kronan kommer ej från kyrkan, den kom Direkt från Gud. Jag visar min styrka genom strid. Född att regera, att föra krig. Knä om Knä! Min tid är här Över Norden jag härskar, med det arv som jag gavs Gång på gång Sjung Carolus sång Krigets konst jag behärskar Låt mitt namn sprida skräck Gång på gång Sjung Carolus sång Än en gång, sjung Carolus sång Född att härska, leda mina män I strid. Ingen man kan mig befalla! Jag Lyder under Gud. Hör min order, ifrågasätt mig ej! Vet att sådan är min vilja, och därmed ska det ske. Sida vid sida uti strid, med karoliner går jag I krig, knä om knä! Min tid är här Över Norden jag härskar, med det arv som jag gavs Gång på gång Sjung Carolus sång Krigets konst jag behärskar Låt mitt namn sprida skräck Gång på gång Sjung Carolus sång Än en gång, sjung Carolus sång Allt jag ser, hela vilden skall stoppa mig Hela Europa ska böja sig för min armé Vad jag vill skall bli mitt och jag dräper dig Min vilja ske! Bevisa min styrka genom strid. Född att regera, att föra krig. Knä om knä! Min vilja ske! Över Norden jag härskar, med det arv som jag gavs. Gång på gång Sjung Carolus sång Än en gång. Krigets konst jag behärskar Låt mitt namn sprida skräck Gång på gång Sjung Carolus sång Än en gång, sjung Carolus sång. |

It's about Chaos Space Marine Raptors from the tabletop game Warhammer 40,000.

"like unholy birds of war we fly we bring agony and insanity" - Directly referencing the Raptors, also referencing Chaos' nature of normally driving those exposed to it's taint insane. "We follow our lust, in no god we trust" That's the Emperor's Children, who serve Slaanesh the Chaos God of Pleasure. "the hordes of undead march on our command" - Death Guard. They are considered zombies/zombie-like because of the "blessings" of the Plague God, Nurgle. |
