When the end is getting closer
And the earth has burned the sky
Now repent 'cause it's all over
Just let me die

Here's the massacre
A mausoleum fit for me
Lived a hundred years
A hundred years I didn't see
Gave all my hope away
Is there any left for me?
Bombs are splitting atoms
What can the future bring?
We can fill a million choirs
And wait 'til children sing
We can walk a million miles
And end up in the sea
And our lungs just keep filling
And lying when we breathe
The world's filled with liars
Liars like me!
And I look at my child
It's finite, this feeling
Eyes blue like the sky
I see all of this meaning
I reach up to God
And I ask if I'm dreaming
So sorry I don't have
Those things that you're needing
And darling a kiss
Kiss me, I'm leaving!

When the end is getting closer
And the earth has burned the sky
Now repent 'cause it's all over
Just let me die
As my body lies here broken
And I'm carried to the light
Now my heart is finally open
Just let me die!

Everybody says greetings and goodbyes
Everybody pays, no one knows the price
We know the price of sin
The sin of sacrifice
I know I'll sin again
But who can save me twice?
How much can we ask?
You'll get the answer first
How much can we kneel
With the air that chills the Earth?
The air keeps getting colder
My knees keep hitting dirt
The innocent can cry without the guilty getting hurt
You ask who you love and you don't know, no, do you?
The spirit of God just passes right through you
You gave away heaven handed right to you
And I can see it all
Tell me, is it true?
Kiss me, my darling
(Darling, I need you)

Where do we go?
We go, oh, Lord, I don't know
Where we go?
We go, no
(I don't know)
Where do we go?
We go, oh, Lord, I don't know
Where we go?
We go, no

Lord, I don't know!

When the end is getting closer
And the earth has burned the sky
Now repent 'cause it's all over
Just let me die
As my body lies here broken
And I'm carried to the light
Now my heart is finally open
Just let me die!

    "The end, sink and crawl Without the guilt of getting hurt"

    I'm pretty sure it's "The innocent can cry Without the guilty getting hurt."

    "Gave all my hope away Is there any left for me?" is "Gave all my hope away Isn't any left for me."

    "It's fire, this feeling It's blue like the sky" is "It's finite, this feeling Eyes blue like the sky"

    "And darling, a kiss Kiss me on these lips" is "And darling, a kiss Kiss me I'm leaving"

    great song!

    Lyric Correction

    you have re written the first verse as the second.. i'm pretty sure that it goes like this (from ear)..

    Everybody says greetings and goodbyes Everybody pays but no one knows the price We know the price of sin, the sin of sacrifice I know I'll sing the __ but who could save me twice? How much can we ask? You'll get the answer first How much can we kneel with the air that chills the earth? The air keeps getting colder, my knees keep hitting dirt the __ without the innocent gettin' hurt You ask who you love and you don't know, no do you The spirit of God just passes right through you You gave away Heaven, handed right to you And I can see it all, tell me is it true Kiss me my darling (darling I need you)

    and also you missed the bridge..

    Where do we go, we go? Oh, Lord I don't know Where we go, we go. No.... I SAID Where do we go, we go? Oh, Lord I don't know Where we go, we go. No.... LORD I DON'T KNOW

    Then the final chorus.. Sorry for the blanks, I think he says "din" or "den" at the first but I really have no idea at the second one.. Hope this helps, its an awesome song. Cheers ;D

    My Interpretation

    It sounds nice that people make well jokences out of this song if so done and say forths how there are a featuring of "gay lovers" when you think about the singing ordering of characters, but I think Danny's voice is suitable to say something about love not needing a gender unto who to love. Then forth, we have the idealism of the song being a bit too romantic and lovey dovey to be true. However, I think there is a lot to expect out of this... "horror raprock" band. Isn't it so nice that this band REALLY does fit that meaningwell too successfully and still be romantic and so forth, eerie in all musick expression. THEN, we can see that there is a new idealism about the real genre, and all to say is ist: Gothic Rap Romantica. Enough said,

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
