| Tiamat – Carry Your Cross and I'll Carry Mine Lyrics

this is one of the most touching songs I´ve ever heard. it´s pretty much like a philosophy book: deep and thought-provoking, but in just 16 lines. I think it´s about how religious people tend to piously believe that anybody that doesn´t belong to their creed or sect is going straight to hell and that their own religion (which is only one among many others) is the one and only true religion.at least that´s my interpretation of the six first lines. in the chorus the author advises people to live their lives without bothering with other peoples conceipts so that everything will be fine. he also tells people to do something constructive until the day they die. in the last stanza he makes a comment about how religious people view mankind´s bad deeds. christians tend to blame the world´s problems on the devil and on hell´s fire, while buddhists blame it on human desires, when, in fact,the blame is on mankind and it´s lame ethics. in the last line he points to a major ethical corruptor: religion. the face of God is the face of evil. religion is the evil. |

just like in Puritania, this song has a speech by some kind of dictator at 0:58 and 3:56,but it doesn´t sound like Hitler or even german to me.I´ve been learning german for a while now,but besides me being a rooker it´s very hard to listen to.if any of you guys know who´s making the speech or in what language it´s spoken, please let me know. |

| The Gathering – Leaves Lyrics

can´t believe noone made a comment on this song yet!this is by far my favorite song by the gathering.the guitar licks in the intro are not from this world and the birdsongs add an extra feeling to the atmosphere.about the lyrics, I think they´re about someone(most probably a girl) who´s feeling lonely and met someone else,had sex with this person and now s/he is gone,with very little probability of seeing him/her again.back then it was carpe diem,but now the person might be feeling used or patheticly discardable. |
