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

Composed by：Tuomas Holopainen[00:00:01]

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[00:01:06]

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

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

Raving harlequins gigantic toys[00:01:23]

A song of me a song in need[00:01:29]

Of a courageous symphony[00:01:32]

A verse of me a verse in need[00:01:35]

Of a pure heart 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]

Sang in silence[00:02:08]

All that great heart lying still and slowly dying[00:02:09]

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

A midnight flight into Covington Woods[00:02:26]

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

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

I'd still give my everything to love you more[00:02:43]

A song of me a song in need[00:02:49]

Of a courageous symphony[00:02:51]

A verse on me a verse in need[00:02:55]

Of a pure heart 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]

Now all that great heart lying still[00:03:10]

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]

Sang in silence[00:03:28]

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[00:04:29]

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[00:05:31]

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 model-doll in his attic[00:07:26]

It's half-light 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[00:07:39]

He tries to bite me[00:07:43]

All pride has left his wild drooling 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[00:08:02]

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[00:08:21]

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

A city that worships flesh[00:08:31]

The first thing I ever heard was a wandering man telling his story[00:08:47]

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

The campfire in the dead of the 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 gilded beaches[00:09:07]

Waking up to a new gallery of wonders every morn[00:09:14]

Bathing in places no one's seen before[00:09:18]

Shipwrecked on some matt-painted island[00:09:24]

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

Beyond all mortality we are swinging in the breath of nature[00:09:37]

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[00:09:54]

Following its permanent lead[00:09:56]

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

Where grass smells like fresh-born 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[00:10:10]

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 infinite[00:10:33]

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

How can you just be yourself[00:10:40]

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 w***e politician wrongdoer[00:10:52]

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 asked me[00:11:32]

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

I've never been so close to truth as then[00:11:41]

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[00:11:58]

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

Why do we still carry a device of torture around our necks[00:12:45]

Oh how rotten your pre-apocalypse is[00:12:49]

All you bible-black fools living over nightmare ground[00:12:53]

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

If man will ever change[00:13:05]

I too wish to be a decent man-boy[00:13:08]

But all I am is smoke and mirrors[00:13:12]

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

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