The Camera Eye - Rush

The Camera Eye

Rush


Lyrics:
I.
Grim-faced and forbidding,
Their faces closed tight,
An angular mass of New Yorkers
Pacing in rhythm,
Race the oncoming night,
They chase through the streets of Manhattan.
Head-first humanity,
Pause at a light,
Then flow through the streets of the city.

They seem oblivious
To a soft spring rain,
Like an English rain
So light, yet endless
From a leaden sky.

The buildings are lost
In their limitless rise.
My feet catch the pulse
And the purposeful stride.

I feel the sense of possibilities,
I feel the wrench of hard realities.
The focus is sharp in the city.

II.
Wide-angle watcher
On life's ancient tales,
Steeped in the history of London.

Green and grey washes
In a wispy white veil
Mist in the streets of Westminster.
Wistful and weathered,
The pride still prevails,
Alive in the streets of the city.

Are they oblivious
To this quality?
A quality
Of light unique to
Every city's streets.

Pavements may teem
With intense energy,
But the city is calm
In this violent sea.

Letra:
I.
De rostros adustos y severos,
sus rostros bien cerrados,
una masa angular de Neoyorkinos
paseando con ritmo,
corren hacia la noche que se acerca,
persiguen a través de las calles de Manhattan.
Humanidad de cabeza
hace una pausa debido a una luz (de tránsito),
luego fluye a través de la ciudad.

Parecen inmutables
a una suave lluvia de primavera,
como una lluvia inglesa
tan ligera, pero interminable
de un cielo plomizo.

Ya no ven los edificios
en su elevación sin límites.
Mis pies atrapan el pulso
y la zancada resuelta.

Siento el sentido de las posibilidades,
siento el tirón de las duras realidades.
El foco está nítido en la ciudad.

II.
Vigilante de vista panorámica
sobre los cuentos antiguos de la vida
obsesionado con la historia de Londres.

El verde y el gris se lava
en un velo de blanco menudo
neblina en las calles de Westminster.
Melancólico y desgastado,
el orgullo aún se mantiene,
vivo en las calles de la ciudad.

¿No se inmutan
con esta calidad?
Una calidad
de luz única para
las calles de toda ciudad.

Los pavimentos pueden rebosar
de energía intensa,
pero la ciudad está calmada
en este mar violento.

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship - Alestorm

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship Alestorm Lyrics: In the dead of night We hear the sound of thunder Undead fiends arise To terrorize and plunder Crawling through the sea A dendrophagic horde Our ship's no longer safe The zombies have just climbed aboard! Bloodlust in their eyes Our boat is their prize A feast for the dead Devouring the ship and inside of our heads Far across the sea Zombies wait for me Craving brains and treasure It's their destiny Til my dying day Hear these words I say Zombies ate my pirate ship I will make them pay Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (They are a bunch of undead pricks) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (I'll smash their face in with a brick) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Centuries ago The prophecy was written So the story goes The grimmest and the true frostbitten Druids made a pact That zombie ...

Portable Door - Deep Purple

 Portable Door Deep Purple Lyrics: When it came to me one day in Jerksville Man, I was right on the edge That jacket's too small for a man of your size And those socks are too big for your head   My eyes glaze at whatever you say But I'm listening, do tell me more It goes under the bridge, right over my head And out through my portable door   I was trapped in a dire situation Between reason and someone-in-law The winner takes all and runs off with the ball Nothing could pleasure me more   Times were, I'd have spoken my piece For a minute or two held the floor But I can't get a word in so here I am hurtling Right out through my portable door   The jabbering's hurting my brain cell so bad For once in my life I am bored The public house beckons, I follow the call And slip in through my portable door   The unlikely event came upon me I wasn't prepared for the shock Once round my neck and twice round ...

Schwarz - Rammstein

 Schwarz Rammstein Songtext: Geh' ich vor der Nacht zur Ruh (Zur Ruh) Deck' ich mich mit Schwermut zu Die helle Welt will mir nicht glücken Muss mich mit Finsternis verzücken Es ist die totenschwangere Nacht Die uns verzückt zu Sündern macht Gebote, die wir übergeh'n Kann im Dunkeln niemand seh'n   Die Nacht ist wunderschön (Wunderschön) Ich will nicht schlafen geh'n   Denn immer, wenn ich einsam bin Zieht es mich zum Dunkel hin Der Sonnentod ist mir Vergnügen (Mir Vergnügen) Immer, wenn es dunkel wird Die Seele sich in Lust verirrt Die kalte Nacht ist mir Vergnügen Trink' das Schwarz in tiefen Zügen (Trink')   Hat sich der Tag im Mond verkrochen Steigt uns ein Fieber in die Knochen Und kein Gebet und keine Kerzen Heucheln Licht in unsre Herzen Das Tageslicht ist kein Verlust Die Nacht hält vielen ihre Brust Trinker, Huren und Verschwörer Sind den Schatten zugehörig   Die Nacht ist wunderschön (Wunderschön)   Immer, wenn ich einsam bin Zieht es mich zum...
