Bruce Dickinson – King In Crimson Lyrics 15 years ago
I agree, I haven't read that book but I have recently finished 'Insomnia', where the Crimson King is introduced. The line in this song which really connects this and the book (besides the Crimson King part, of course) is, "if you only could see the visions, his hand is death if you taken it now".
The main character in Insomnia has many visions full of aura's and light.

it's definately Jekyll and Hyde; "a face divided in the mirror" and "this ill effect - a vile creation of my design"

Within Temptation – Pale Lyrics 16 years ago
I just watched Interview With The Vampire again and I still believe this song is based on that film. Also, vampires are pale... just a little add on.

Bleeding Through – What I Bleed Without You Lyrics 17 years ago
I love this song. It's about being fucked about my a girl that he thought he'd get with, he fell in love and she denied him and he thought they'd get together and he'd be happy and she'd be the one to make him forget about his ex ("you were supposed to be the one to take her place")

Iron Maiden – To Tame A Land Lyrics 17 years ago
I saw Maiden on the Piece of Mind tour. Bruce introduced the song by saying that this was a song based on a book by Frank Herbert, and that he (Herbert) did not want them to call it "Dune," so they called it "To Tame a Land," but Bruce added, "F*ck 'im, tonight we're calling it 'Dune'!!!"

LOL! taht is fucking CLASSIC!

Sentenced – Aika Multaa Muistot (Everything is Nothing) Lyrics 17 years ago
What the hell? This is one of the most emotional Senteced songs and one of theior very best! I think it's basically about every song the band has ever done, this is their way of saying that they meant every lyric they ever wrote and that none of their words were jokes and everything was to be taken seriously

Iron Maiden – Remember Tomorrow Lyrics 17 years ago
And on top of taht -

"Scan the horizon, the clouds take me higher,
I shall return from out of fire."

'The clouds take me higher' - meaning Frodo climbing Mount Doom.

'I shall return from out of the fire' - meaning Frodo WILL destroy the ring and WILL return home after conquering Sauron.

And like I said before, I know this song has nothing to do with LOTR, but listening to the song, it just gave me that impression and thoguh I'd share it :)

Iron Maiden – Remember Tomorrow Lyrics 17 years ago
I know it's ntohing to do with this song but the lines

"Out in the madness, the all seeing eye,
Flickers above us, to light up the sky"

sounds like it COULD have been related to The Lord Of The Rings.
The 'all seeing eye' being the eye of Sauron

Children of Bodom – Blooddrunk Lyrics 17 years ago
"They say drinking is a way to die
But at the end... Dying is a way to drink"

Within Temptation – Pale Lyrics 17 years ago
Mmhmm... I think this is based on Interview With a Vampire. When Lestrat bites Louis and Louis gets over the shock, he sees the world differently and thinks 'the world has changed but it's still the same'. He's seeing the world in a different way through his vampire eyes.
Quote from the song -
"The world seem not the same
Though I know nothing has changed
It’s all my state of mind"

Also, Louis wanted to die when his wuife and child died, taht's why Lestrat bit him, so he could be dead but alive and lose all the pain in time

"Use the time that I have
I can’t say goodbye
Have to make it right
Have to fight, cause I know
In the end it’s worthwile
That the pain that I feel slowly fades away
It will be alright"

That's what I think anyway, based upon Interview With a Campire

Nightwish – Ghost Love Score Lyrics 17 years ago
A woman's thinking about her lost love and how it used to be:

"We used to swim the same moonlight waters
Oceans away from the wakeful day"

a certain scent reminds her of him
'brings you to thee into a blue memory'
blue memory = sad mamory of lost love:

"Scent of the sea before the waking of the world
Brings me to thee
Into the blue memory"

She heard him calling her name from the ocean's they swam together. His voice is 'the siren' he is her 'dream':

"A siren from the deep came to me
Sang my name my longing
Still I write my songs about that dream of mine
Worth everything I may ever be"

'The Child' is her innocence, she's saying the sound of his voice will renew the innonce that was lost. she hears him singing, maybe in her dream / memory. But she knows he'll never care about her 'love and loss':

"The Child will be born again
That siren carried him to me
First of them true loves
Singing on the shoulders of an angel
Without care for love n` loss"

'Bring me home or leave me be' - she's telling him in her memory to either come back to her or to eave her memory so she can move in.
'I have lost the path before me, the one behind will lead me on' - she can't see a futute as she's still living in the past, the only way to go forwards is to go backwards to when they were together. only then can she see a clear future:

"Bring me home or leave me be
My love in the dark heart of the night
I have lost the path before me
The one behind will lead me"

She wishes for death if she can't get what she wants, every thought if him makes her contemplate suicide:

"Take me
Cure me
Kill me
Bring me home
Every way
Every day
Just another loop in the hangman`s noose"

'I keep watching us sleep' - showing she still sees them together but not knowing it as they're both in their own worlds asleep:

"Take me, cure me, kill me, bring me home
Every way, every day
I keep on watching us sleep"

'forgive the adorning beast' - he may have done something terrible to hurt her

"Relive the old sin of Adam and Eve
Of you and me
Forgive the adoring beast"

'redeem me into childhood' - let innocence come back like it used to be long ago as a child, not a care in the world, not having done anything bad.
'show myself without a shell' - maybe she hasn't told her she's still in love, but she wants to 'break her shell' and show him that her feelings for him still love on.
'i'll be there when you say time to never hold our love' - she knows if she told him she's still in love, he'd just tell her to let him go:

"Redeem me into childhood
Show me myself without the shell
Like the advent of May
I`ll be there when you say
Time to never hold our love"

that's just what I think it's about. just a whole memory and the woman wishing she could tell her ex lover how she feels and that she always sees him in dreams and memories and it hurts her.
I'm probably wrong but, hey, each song holds a different meaning to each and every individual person.
