Kingdom Of Heartache

Chimaira

Years ago they came to me, claiming they would protect me
Their fingers felt like silk, and lips tasted like candy
They were my everything, something left from a dream
This was the first time I felt so close to God
And all the angels lead me to his kingdom

There is no escaping
Judgement arise
Trapped in the kingdom of heartache

There's no way to understand, what the hell has happened
One minute on top of the world, the next minute I'm drowning
They took away everything, shattered all my dreams
This was the last time I felt so close to God
And all the angels lead me to his kingdom

There is no escaping
Judgement Arise
Trapped in the kingdom of heartache

[...]
Sacrifice, keep on bleeding
Mutilate all my feelings
Together in hell becoming a demon

Kingdom of heartache
Judgement Arise [x3]
In the kingdom of heartache

    what is Mark saying just before the [...] Sacrifice, keep on bleeding Mutilate all my feelings Together in hell becoming a demon

    Every version of lyrics for this song seem to have this [...] in this part. Sounds something like 'Parda Tehll Quiver Satan', doesn't make sense though

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
