Metallica – Cure Lyrics 15 years ago
I disagree with your interpretation. wouldn't it be strange if the same band that has songs called like The God That Failed etc. now would do songs in which they worship the church?in addition hetfield had bad experiences with religion when he was a child.his parents died because of diseases they didn't want do fight with medicines because they were so religious that they thought god would cure them if they pray enough.well of course that didn't happen and hetfield had to watch them die without fighting against it because of church so i would guess that this is not a pro religion song

Killswitch Engage – Rose of Sharyn Lyrics 15 years ago
Well i think that it's about a loved one he lost as some of the others do.But the line "It won't be long, we'll meet again" could be about suicide but that would make no sence because of the line "Hopeing, praying that I'll find a way to turn back time, can I turn back time?"
Why would you pray for so long if you wanted to kill yourself later anyway.

Iced Earth – The Phantom Opera Ghost Lyrics 15 years ago
From now on forevermore you will only sing for me

Y: So you are, you are the legend. The Phantom Opera Ghost
M: I am what man has made me. With his hate and cruel ways
Y: Why are you?
M: Why am I?
Y&M: The Phantom Opera Ghost
Y: I have to see
M: You'll never see
Y&M: What's behind the mask


Really love this part. when Y starts the verse while M is still singing.And then the part where they sing together...just amazing

Iced Earth – Dante's Inferno Lyrics 15 years ago
Well i guess some here have played too much d2^^ mephisto and baal ar not lords of hatred or sth like that...blizz just took a little look on religion and saw that there are many names for the devil...just to count them:Ahriman,Angat,Antichrist,Asrael,Azazel,Baphomet,Beelzebub(comes from Bhaal they sacrificed to the Baal Sebul statues in summer too what made flies appear Beelzebub is like "lord of the flies"(also some songtitles by rage or therion are called lord of the flies),Beliar(1. one from d2.comes from Baal Sebur),Chutriel,Diabolus(here you got the second one from D2),Herr Urian(old german name),Lord of Hell(and stuff like that),Iblis,Luzifer(the devil was a fallen angel who startet a riot in heaven it's name was Luzifer),Mephistoteles(short:Mephisto here you got the 3.),Schaitan,Sanny(female form of devil) and pretty much more....wikipedia ftw :D and if the believe is right that if you say the devils name he will appear i will have a little problem now :)
Epic Song and nice story but guess i will never read the book because it will take looooooong ^^

Iced Earth – Creator Failure Lyrics 15 years ago
"For I understand the error of mans ways
But of creation and the seven days
When was created the murky haze
From which the beast has risen"
There she blames god for his failre during the creation and asks him when and why this haze was createt from which leviathan was born i guess so completely maybe it's about how got makes failures too or how he could let this happen if he is truly so good.Also she's saying that this thing is not her fault but though she has to carry out the consequence of gods failure.

Iced Earth – Burning Oasis Lyrics 15 years ago
Maybe rather the devil who makes Adam&Eve eating the apple and burning down the paradise afterwards."The burning oasis has beckoned us all" maybe this burning oasis shall guide all evil to the paradise to take revenge on god or sth?

Iced Earth – Brainwashed Lyrics 15 years ago
I agree with kaist but could the first line of the song be "And so we begin with another sin" rather than "And so we begin with another sun"? i am pretty sure about that^^

Iced Earth – Burnt Offerings Lyrics 15 years ago
But first, spread their blood around
The message will be found
Walk carefully my friends stab my back again
A warning from the sky


well that line shows ho pissed of he really is i mean "the message will be found" sounds a lot like "kill them as brutal as you can so no other one dares to betray me.
In generall besides of the contract it could be seen as a track against every traitor in history

Iced Earth – Dracula Lyrics 15 years ago
What i forgot is that i guess it would fit right into the Dark Saga album too if it wasn't about Dracula maybe after a question of heaven or sth if the story of spawn was different.Another attack on religion by schaffer he is truly a god in writing songs :)

Iced Earth – Dracula Lyrics 15 years ago
Well nice song about a man who served god long time and that god has nothing better to do than taking his wife as reward.you would be angry too if it happened to you i guess :) So for that he swears that he will take revenge at any cost.
"Is this my reward for serving God's own war?
The blood I've spilled for faith fulfilled.
To damn her, a disgrace, you spit back in my face.
I served you loyally, and you spew blasphemy."
I guess this is where it comes out best.God spits in the face of a man who served him loyally.
Rest of the song is mostly a description who he takes his revenge.

Iced Earth – A Question Of Heaven Lyrics 15 years ago
Hmm it's really thoughtfull and amazing but we all know that so i won't write how amazing it is for now :P
as demon lord above said it has some provoking lyrics too by saing that god is not neccesserily(?) better than the devil just because he's said to be good.He punishes Spawn for choosing love rather than his own life whats fairly unfair i guess.God and Devil using nearly same tactics or act in a similar way(both were said to play a "twisted game" in different songs) He pleas for death and is the good guy in the story,he doesn't even plea for freedom or paradise just for his own death to bring it to an end finally,but god denies it...beautiful song!

Iced Earth – Slave To The Dark Lyrics 15 years ago
or at least to place himself at the mercy of god by handing himself out...well death could be a form of breaking free for him too so i guess he doesn't cares a lot about wether he will be killed by god ("And will the wrath of god have mercy on my soul
Or humilate me, desecrate me, like his only son ") or set free...attack on religion here too^^

Iced Earth – The Last Laugh Lyrics 15 years ago
I guess it's the devil who talks to spawn who thought that he could break free and "refuse to be his slave"(Dark Saga).It's like the devil sais "Haha you think you can break free?For that i'll turn you into a mindless killermashine." So i guess that's why it's called The Last Laugh.
