Witch Hunt - Rush

Witch Hunt

Rush


Lyrics:
The night is black,
Without a moon.
The air is thick and still.

The vigilantes gather on
The lonely torchlit hill.

Features distorted in the flickering light,
The faces are twisted and grotesque.
Silent and stern in the sweltering night,
The mob moves like demons possessed.
Quiet in conscience, calm in their right,
Confident their ways are best.

The righteous rise
With burning eyes
Of hatred and ill-will.

Madmen fed on fear and lies
To beat and burn and kill.

They say there are strangers who threaten us,
In our immigrants and infidels.
They say there is strangeness, too dangerous
In our theatres and bookstore shelves,
That those who know what's best for us
Must rise and save us from ourselves.

Quick to judge,
Quick to anger,
Slow to understand

Ignorance and prejudice
And fear
Walk hand in hand.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
Letra:
La noche es negra,
sin una luna.
El aire es denso y quieto.

Los vigilantes se reúnen
en la solitaria colina iluminada por antorchas.

Facciones distorsionadas en la luz parpadeante,
los rostros retorcidos y grotescos.
Silenciosos y severos en la noche sofocante,
la turba se mueve como poseídos por el demonio.
Quieto en la conciencia, calmos en su derecho,
confiados que su forma de pensar era la mejor.

El recto se levanta
con ojos ardiendo
en odio y mala intención.

Locos alimentados por el temor y las mentiras
para golpear y quemar y matar.

Ellos dicen que hay extraños que nos amenazan,
en nuestros inmigrantes e infieles.
Ellos dicen que hay algo extraño, demasiado peligroso
en nuestros teatros y repisas de librerías,
que quienes conocen lo que es mejor para nosotros
deben levantarse y salvarnos de nosotros mismos.

Rápidos para juzgar,
rápidos para enfadarse,
lentos para entender.

La ignorancia y el prejuicio
y el miedo
caminan mano a mano.

Invaders - Iron Maiden

Invaders Iron Maiden Lyrics: Longboats have been sighted the evidence of war has begun Many Nordic fighting men their swords and shields all gleam in the sun Call to arms defend yourselves get ready to stand and fight for your lives Judgement day has come around so be prepared don't run stand your ground They're coming in from the sea they've come the enemy beneath the blazing sun the battle has to be won Invaders ... Pillaging Invaders ... Looting Set ablaze the campfires alert the other men from inland Warning must be given there's not enough men here for a stand The Vikings are too many too powerful to take on our own We must have reinforcements we cannot fight this battle alone They're coming over the hill they've come to attack they're coming in for the kill there's no turning back Invaders ... Fighting Invaders ... Marauding Axes grind and maces clash as wounded fighters fall to the ground Severed li...

Still of The Night - Whitesnake

Still Of The Night Whitesnake Lyrics: In the still of the night I hear the wolf howl, honey Sniffing around your door In the still of the night I feel my heart beating heavy Telling me I gotta have more In the shadow of night I see the full moon rise Telling me what's in store My heart start aching My body start a shaking And I can't take no more Now I just wanna get close to you An' taste your love so sweet And I just wanna make love to you Feel your body heat In the still of the night In the still of the night Over here baby In the heat of the day , I hang my head down low And hide my face from the sun Through the light of the day Until the evening time I'm waiting for the night to come In the still of the night In the cool moonlight I feel heart is aching In the still of the night Tell me here baby! In the still of the night I hear the wolf howl, honey Sniffing around your door ...

Since You've Been Gone - Rainbow

Since You've Been Gone Rainbow Lyrics:   I get the same old dreams same time everynight Fall to the ground and I wake up So I get out of bed, put on my shoes and in my head Thoughts fly back to the breakup These four wall are closing in Look at the fix you put me in Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Could I be wrong But since you been gone You cast your spell so break it Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Since you been gone So in the night I stand beneath the backstreet light I read the words that you sent to me I can take the afternoon, the night time comes around too soon You can't know what you mean to me Your poison letter, your telegram Just goes to show you don't give a damn Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Could I be wrong But since you been gone You cast your spell so break it Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Since you been gone If you will come back ...
