Als Atem und Herzschlag versiegten
Aus meinem durchbohrten zerschlagenen Leib
Die Seele erhebt sich von Neuem
Trotz allem der Körper am Platze bleibt
Walküren tragt mich von innen
Hinauf in das mir gelobte Reich
Hinauf zu den Toren Walhallas
Sorge und Pein sind mir dort gleich

Schilde sind die Schindeln
Schäfte sind die Sparren
Es decken Brücken die Bank
Geladen ich bin zu ewig' Kampf und Feste
Des Mutes und Kampfgeschickes dank

So feiern wir unter Leerats Zweigen
Zu Sämnirs Fleisch und Heidruns Met
So wartend auf die nächste Schlacht
Von jedem von uns herbeigesehnt

Des Flusses Strömen mit Kraft getrotzt
Der Thund erschöpft nun durchquert
Ich stehe da vor der großen Halle
Der Eintritt mir nun gewährt
Meine Blicke schweifen durch ewige Ränge
Lachend und grüßend man mich empfängt
Seh Krieger von denen die Sagen sprachen
Deren Taten auf Erden man ewig gedenkt

Schilde sind die Schindeln
Schäfte sind die Sparren
Es decken Brücken die Bank
Geladen ich bin zu ewig' Kampf und Feste
Des Mutes und Kampfgeschickes dank

So feiern wir unter Leerats Zweigen
Zu Sämnirs Fleisch und Heidruns Met
So wartend auf die nächste Schlacht
Von jedem von uns herbeigesehnt

Ein jeder rüstet sich am Morgen
Ein jeder Tag ein Tag der Schlacht
Besiegte verwundet zu Boden sinken
Gen Abend ein jeder unversehrt erwacht
So feiern wir unter Leerats Zweigen
Gelagen fröhnend man lacht und singt
An Odins Tafel für alle Zeiten
Bis Gjallarhornes Ton erklingt

Schilde sind die Schindeln
Schäfte sind die Sparren
Es decken Brücken die Bank
Geladen ich bin zu ewig' Kampf und Feste
Des Mutes und Kampfgeschickes dank

Ministry
Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
