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.

§1 - Opeth

 §1 Opeth Lyrics: Draped in death, the howl of lore Draped in death, the howl of lore   Alas, my time is at an end I have wallowed in self-pity And I confess to you As part of final plight   Draped in death, the howl of lore   This is the last will and testament of father Hear, the last will and testament of father   A syndicates mass in the waiting room Like spiders weave And rumors spread fast above regal tombs Enacted grief   I will here unearth the secrets I've been hiding (hiding, hiding) And guide my children through my trials   Put your trust in my command I thin the blood. I lift my hand   Draped in death, the howl of lore   This is the last will and testament of father Hear, the last will and testament of father   Letra: Cubierto de muerte, el aullido de la tradición   Cubierto de muerte, el aullido de la tradición     Ay, mi tiempo ha llegado...

Lazy Sod - Deep Purple

 Lazy Sod Deep Purple Lyrics: The world’s on fire And I can’t get my arse out of bed The world is on fire There’s smoke all around my head   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night……   The oceans are rising And I can’t do a thing about that So it’s hardly surprising I built an ark for me and my sleek black cat   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   But that’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, you can like it or not I’m guessing not   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   That’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot, so hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, Whether you like it, like it or not And I’m guessing not Soooo what  ------------------------------------------...

The Alien - Dream Theater

 The Alien Dream Theater Lyrics: Look beyond the Earth, heading set for the stars Interplanetary, some are near, some are far Terraform a new world, survival for mankind Options but a few, we are running out of time   Should you climb aboard A voyage, the first of its kind Ready to explore All that you've known left behind   Our Holy Grail Now redefined Our purpose, a thread Weaving through time Now with the means to expand Life beyond here, digital man   Alien, changed forever New found world in the stars   Understand the meaning Certain we'll extend the scale of consciousness Woman, child and man Multi planet species out amongst the stars Not stuck in and around who and what we are   Time to climb aboard Countdown to takeoff on time Systems are online (5, 4, 3, 2) Farewell to all humankind (1)   Our Holy Grail Clearly defined Our purpose, a thread Weaving through time Now wi...
