One Day You Will Cry

Children of Bodom

To the fucker who let me have a life in the dark,
Till the day my life ran out
Well a day in the dark, a bloody lust of wind, wanna know what it's about?

It's not like your gonna need me or I'm gonna miss you
when the worlds so cold out there
So dumb, what the fuck am I doing here?
All I need to know

I'm sorry and ill let you go by the reign you built for me
Still a god but, don't wanna even know what's waiting for me

I'll be waiting here for always
Wanna go? Yeah, hang that rope
Every thought breaks down in my head
Best to run, blinded soul
Bring me back on my feet and let me go I'm fine alone
In this shell of life you left me hanging dry
With a smile on my face I'll watch you cry

Forms of my dream
Down you'll be grime

I'll be waiting here for always
Wanna go? Yeah, hang that rope
Every thought breaks down in my head
Best to run, blinded soul
Bring me back on my feet and let me go I'm fine alone
In this shell of life you left me hanging dry
With a smile on my face I'll watch you cry

Watch you cry
Watch you cry

    Can't believe nobody's commented on this awesome song yet!

    I think this songs about... well, wanting to take somebody down who made you suffer and watch him die with a smile on your face. In a word: Revenge

    Great song! And I agree with the person above. "With a smile on my face I watch you cry" - definitely revenge. The fucking guitar solo is SIIIICK

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.
