| Nightwish – Passion and the Opera Lyrics
| 9 years ago
|
I think this song is about prostitution and how it kills one's desire to find love.
"Princess of lust, dignity put to dust"
Obviously a guy sees a woman he wants and then goes below his dignity to sleep with her (perhaps also her dignity is gone too).
"Virginal sight, their apple to bite"
This is him seeing her for the first time, then they engage in the sin.
Later in the chorus
"Their erotic hour my tearless weep"
Because of the act, there is a greater chance neither of them find true love.
"Their satisfaction my infinite sleep"
They enjoy what they've done and no longer wish to find love at all. Aphordite was the love goddess so when the desire is gone she goes to sleep. |

| Nightwish – Two For Tragedy Lyrics
| 9 years ago
|
I think this is about Romeo and Juliet from the point of view of Romeo's mother.
She's speaking to her dead son in the beginning and feels like the feud between the two families is ultimately futile in the end, as is life. Next she talks about the depression that Romeo fell into after he thought Juliet was dead, so there was no healing hand for him. After the events went down, the family came under scrutiny and she was put under scorn. Later she tells him that even in Romeo's pride in marrying Juliet despite the family's objections she never blamed him for following his heart. Now the two of them are the saddened angels in Heaven, in death. |

This sounds like a conversation inside someone's head between their good side and their bad side. The main voice feels remorse for all their misdeeds and it ready to face judgement for them while the other voice is there as a convicting voice. |

This song is about the Blood Countess. But I think there is more meaning that can be gleaned here. I think this is also about caring for someone so deeply that it hurts you as they do battle with their own inner demons that you're torn because you want to help them but you know that you can't help them. |

I'm not 100% sure what this song is about, but I think in the beginning the narrator has been jaded by their past and is in pain (maybe over a lost lover), and is now looking for someone else to come along, love them and rescue them. |

Best song of Hydra IMO, one of their best songs period.
I think it's about people not being able to have the world as they want, but they need to stand their ground and defend what's theirs even though it's not their "paradise". |

This is about pride in relationships, and how it can blind people from assessing the truth during, and causing breakups. Then, the one who broke up with the other is in bad shape and wants to come back to the one he took for granted. |

This is seems like he met someone almost by chance (like meeting someone on a crosswalk, only because the lights kept them there). While she is defeated in life, he is there and genuinely interested, but would have never known if it hadn't been for that traffic light that kept them there. |

Maybe it means that an ex wants to get back with him, but loves who he was, not who he is today. So she would be looking at the "ghost of him"-who he was previously. |

I think the point is that people have been in different places before, and though there has been sadness in all their lives, they can still do whatever they want to if they put their mind to it and are willing |

this song is intense. but when you truly do find the one you belong with, there is nothing more important in life. I think that was the point of the video, just that he was out on tour and everything but his life wasn't complete without her. |

I can really relate to this song. A lot of girls just want to see what they can get from you, and not really love you. They'll change you just to fit their own agendas.
Hard to say which of those two is cheesier. I would say Separate ways is probably easier to make fun of though. Watch the literal version of Separate Ways on youtube, it's hilarious. |

Journey is Steve Perry. What exactly could make it more Journey than Steve Perry? Nothing! Today's version of Journey is watered down- they aren't as much of a sell out as some other groups, but they def aren't like what it was when it began (with Steve!!)
just my 2 cents |

That is likely more accurate. At first I thought it might be about a broken relationship that one of them feels so guilty they don't feel like they can go back to the other person because they are unworthy; yet the speaker tells them that "you're the only one believing in all your lies" suggested that their own false ideas have blocked them from accepting themselves and seeking redemption with the other person. |

| Journey – It Could Have Been You Lyrics

This seems like a song about distance relationships to me. "We were so close" (emotionally) "but so far away" (physically). After time passed, it took its toll on him, and he basically tells her to put up or shut up, because he can't "wait all [his] life on a street of broken dreams". He obviously feels like he could have been with her forever and wonders if she feels the same way, by asking "I still wonder if you remember the night- it could have been you". |

| Europe – Open Your Heart Lyrics

This is an amazing song, just expresses how one feels after losing someone so close to them.
"Days filled with joy, days filled with sorrow. I don't know just what to do." He wants so desperately to give love to someone again, but can't find anyone "I've been waiting, for the angels to knock on my door", but he still feels something for his ex lover "I've been hoping, everything could be like before". He wants to love his former lover, and tells her to "open your heart...make up your mind" because he knows it will be too late if she waits.
In the bridge, he states the truth that nobody can "fix" how he's feeling except her, when she gives him an answer on what she is going to do/how she feels about him. |
