This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
oh - my dearest; the sweet music in the ear -
albeit, daresay I, the lullaby of an everso dark sleep.
my precious,
likest thou what emergeth yon the distant?
the throbbing and breathing of life's machinery!
wanion its oh so damndest soul!
with the devil-instrument it we shall reap,
after the banquet obscur'd in our thole,
its blood so lovingly across our faces smear
lord of carnagel,
lady of carnagel,
one funeral maketh many,
swarm god's acres;
two indeed more:
blest treat of delight -
give praise for the blood it bled,
grant a rose for the dead!
grant a rose for the dead!
enraptur'd by the timeless beauty of the
shadowsphere,
we two abide the overlook'd time of the watch.
make this cherish'd feast last
but until the new dawn ascendeth.
be still - harken the lure of night!
bale in each its damndest shadow,
cloth me in night, ne'er fell rue,
in its face, behold! naught save grue.
pray, ne'er come hither daylight!
wane to dust the wight,
velvet darkness, thee we ourselves bestow!
misery it in velvet fright
albeit, daresay I, the lullaby of an everso dark sleep.
my precious,
likest thou what emergeth yon the distant?
the throbbing and breathing of life's machinery!
wanion its oh so damndest soul!
with the devil-instrument it we shall reap,
after the banquet obscur'd in our thole,
its blood so lovingly across our faces smear
lord of carnagel,
lady of carnagel,
one funeral maketh many,
swarm god's acres;
two indeed more:
blest treat of delight -
give praise for the blood it bled,
grant a rose for the dead!
grant a rose for the dead!
enraptur'd by the timeless beauty of the
shadowsphere,
we two abide the overlook'd time of the watch.
make this cherish'd feast last
but until the new dawn ascendeth.
be still - harken the lure of night!
bale in each its damndest shadow,
cloth me in night, ne'er fell rue,
in its face, behold! naught save grue.
pray, ne'er come hither daylight!
wane to dust the wight,
velvet darkness, thee we ourselves bestow!
misery it in velvet fright

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”

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
No idea what it means, but I love it so much. Her voice is just outstanding, she's very, very talented.
yeah, this one is awesome, I think this was the first song I heard by ToT, and then I was hooked!
purfect xample ov how doom metal shud sound lyke..try out anathema,novembers doom,opeth,dream theatre,within temptation....doom metal kicks raps ugly cracksmellin arse
uhh metal_messiah within temptation would be considered goth metal. ToT would be a cross between the two genres. Liv has an amazing voice, one of the best, but honestly she has nothing on Epica's Simone Simons. though i have to admit, she does give her a run for her money :D
Metal Messiah, TOT is gothic, opeth (death metal) Dream theatre (progressive/power). inuyoukess I disagree, i think Liv has a better voice that Simone Simons.. it sux that she's not in TOT no more...
The song is very vampyric.
"my precious, likest thou what emergeth yon the distant? the throbbing and breathing of life's machinery!"
Thier prey emerges
"with the devil-instrument it we shall reap, after the banquet obscur'd in our thole, its blood so lovingly across our faces smear"
Dracula made a deal with the devil to gain immortality and I assume the "banquet" they reap is the blood of the living
"one funeral maketh many,
swarm god's acres;"
If someone is killed by being made a vampyre they dwell on the earth and kill more to feast
"we two abide the overlook'd time of the watch."
Most people overlook the time but most abide by it
"make this cherish'd feast last but until the new dawn ascendeth.
be still - harken the lure of night! bale in each its damndest shadow, cloth me in night, ne'er fell rue, in its face, behold! naught save grue.
pray, ne'er come hither daylight! wane to dust the wight, velvet darkness, thee we ourselves bestow! misery it in velvet fright "
They're trying to feast as much as possable before the sun comes up, they don't want daylight to come.
Meh, that's what I take from it. if I'm wrong ah, well
I meant to say this: People can overlook the time but those two must abide by it.
please dont spell vampire "vampyre", unless you mean it sarcastically. this has nothing to do with anne rice groupie skin goth wannabees.
also, isnt the lyrics rather "lord/lady of carnage"? without the l?
i would however agree this song does have s certain vampiric twist. its as good a explanation as any, i suppose.
chi-chi is on point.
btw, two words: leaves' eyes. liv kristine's new band, along with her husband. its along the same lines as ToT, only its got liv... long live liv. she's got the ultimate goth metal voice, with simone simons a very close second. although vibeke stene from tristania also comes quite close.
