Song Of Myself - Nightwish[00:00:00]

The nightingale is still locked in the cage[00:00:45]

The deep breath I took still poisons my lungs[00:00:50]

An old oak sheltering me from the blue[00:00:56]

Sun bathing on its dead frozen leaves[00:01:01]

A catnap in the ghost town of my heart[00:01:07]

She dreams of storytime and the river ghosts[00:01:12]

Of mermaids' of Whitman's and the rude[00:01:18]

Raving harlequins' gigantic toys[00:01:23]

A song of mea song in need[00:01:28]

Of a courageous symphony[00:01:32]

A verse of mea verse in need[00:01:35]

Of a ppureheart singing me to peace[00:01:38]

All that great heart lying still and slowly dying[00:01:41]

All that great heart lying still on an angelwing[00:01:44]

All that great heart lying still[00:01:51]

In silent suffering[00:01:55]

Smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end[00:01:58]

What is left for encore[00:02:03]

Is the same old dead boy's song[00:02:04]

Sung in silence[00:02:07]

All that great heart lying still and slowly dying[00:02:10]

All that great heart lying still on an angelwing[00:02:12]

A midnight flight into Covington Woods[00:02:27]

A princess and a panther by my side[00:02:32]

These are Territories I live for[00:02:38]

I'd still give mt everything to love you more[00:02:42]

A song of mea song in need[00:02:48]

Of a courageous symphony[00:02:51]

A verse of mea verse in need[00:02:55]

Of a ppureheart singing me to peace[00:02:58]

All that great heart lying still and slowly dying[00:03:01]

All that great heart lying still on an angelwing[00:03:04]

All that great heart lying still[00:03:11]

In silent suffering[00:03:15]

Smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end[00:03:18]

What is left for encore[00:03:22]

Is the same old dead boy's song[00:03:24]

Sung in silence[00:03:27]

All that great heart lying still and slowly dying[00:03:29]

All that great heart lying still on an angelwing[00:03:32]

A silent symphony[00:04:03]

A hollow opus 1'2'3[00:04:16]

Sometimes the sky is piano black[00:04:28]

Piano black over cleansing waters[00:04:42]

Resting pipes' verse of bore[00:04:53]

Rusting keys without a door[00:05:06]

Sometimes the within is piano black[00:05:19]

Piano black over cleansing waters[00:05:32]

All that great heart lying still and slowly dying[00:06:11]

All that great heart lying still on an angelwing[00:06:17]

All that great heart lying still and slowly dying[00:06:24]

All that great heart lying still on an angelwing[00:06:30]

I see a slow' simple youngster by a busy street'[00:07:07]

with a begging bowl in his shaking hand[00:07:11]

Trying to smile but hurting infinitely Nobody notices[00:07:14]

I do' but walk by[00:07:21]

An old man gets naked and kisses a modeldoll in his attic[00:07:26]

It's halflight and he's in tears[00:07:31]

When he finally comes his eyes are cascading[00:07:34]

I see a beaten dog in a pungent alley He tries to bite me[00:07:39]

All pride has left his wild injured eyes[00:07:45]

I wish I had my leg to spare[00:07:48]

A mother visits her son' smiles to him through the bars[00:07:54]

She's never loved him more[00:07:58]

An obese girl enters an elevator with me[00:08:01]

All dressed up fancy' a green butterfly on her neck[00:08:05]

Terribly sweet perfume deafens me[00:08:10]

She's going to dinner alone[00:08:14]

That makes her even more beautiful[00:08:17]

I see a model's face on a brick wall[00:08:20]

A statue of porcelain perfection beside a violent city kill[00:08:24]

A city that worships flesh[00:08:30]

The 1st thing I ever heard was a wandering[00:08:46]

man telling his story[00:08:50]

It was you' the grass under my bare feet[00:08:52]

The campfire in the dead of night[00:08:57]

The heavenly black of sky and sea[00:09:00]

It was us[00:09:05]

Roaming the rainy roads' combing the guilded beaches[00:09:07]

Waking up to a new gallery of wonders every morn[00:09:13]

Bathing in places noone's seen before[00:09:18]

Shipwrecked on some mattpainted island[00:09:23]

Clad in nothing but the surf beauty's finest robe[00:09:28]

Beyond all mortality we are' swinging in the breath of nature[00:09:36]

In early air of the dawn of life[00:09:43]

A sight to silence the heavens[00:09:47]

I want to travel where life travels'[00:09:53]

following its permanent lead[00:09:56]

Where the air tastes like snow music[00:09:58]

Where grass smells like freshborn Eden[00:10:02]

I would pass no man' no stranger' no tragedy or rapture[00:10:05]

I would bathe in a world of sensation[00:10:11]

Love' goodness and simplicity[00:10:14]

While violated and imprisoned by technology[00:10:19]

The thought of my family's graves was the only moment[00:10:27]

I used to experience true love[00:10:30]

That love remains infintie'[00:10:33]

as I'll never be the man my father is[00:10:35]

How can you just be yourself[00:10:39]

when you don't know who you are[00:10:42]

Stop saying I know how you feel[00:10:45]

How could anyone know how another feels[00:10:47]

Who am I to judge a priest beggar[00:10:52]

whore politician wrongdoer[00:10:55]

I am you are all of them already[00:11:00]

Dear child stop working go play[00:11:16]

Forget every rule[00:11:20]

There's no fear in a dream[00:11:23]

Is there a village inside this snowflake[00:11:28]

a child aske me[00:11:32]

What's the colour of our lullaby[00:11:36]

I've never been so close to truth as then[00:11:40]

I touched its silver lining[00:11:46]

Death is the winner in any war[00:11:54]

Nothing noble in dying for your religion[00:11:57]

For your country[00:12:00]

For ideology for faith[00:12:02]

For another man yes[00:12:06]

Paper is dead without words[00:12:17]

Ink idle without a poem[00:12:19]

All the world dead without stories[00:12:22]

Without love and disarming beauty[00:12:25]

Careless realism costs souls[00:12:32]

Ever seen the Lord smile[00:12:37]

All he care for the world made Beautiful a sad man[00:12:40]

Why do we still carry a device of torture around our necks[00:12:44]

Oh how rotten your preapocalypse is[00:12:49]

All you bibleblack fools living over nightmare ground[00:12:52]

I see all those empty cradles and wonder[00:13:01]

If man will never change[00:13:05]

I too wish to be a decent manboy but all I am[00:13:08]

Is smoke and mirrors[00:13:14]

Still given everything may I be deserving[00:13:17]

And there forever remains the change from G to Em[00:13:22]
