Pain Of Salvation - Mortar Grind lyrics (from Road Salt Two)
Emelie is sad
Emelie is sad
Emelie is sad
She used to be glad
Now Emelie's been had
Emelie's been had
Emelie's been had
She might never be glad
Oh, but there is something deep inside her
Oh, if we could only see inside her
Now she's mine, all broken inside
A product of your fine
MORTAR GRIND
Every crime is seeping inside
Until they're all mine
Burn them away
Jenny used to smile
Jenny used to smile
Jenny used to smile
Now she'll only hide
Jenny's in denial
Jenny's in denial
Jenny's in denial
She might never smile
Oh, but there is something deep inside her
Oh, I know 'cause I have been inside her
Now she's mine, all broken inside
A product of your fine
Mortar grind
Every crime is seeping inside
Until they're all mine
Burn them away
Burn them away --
I used to be mine
I used to be mine
I used to be mine
Now I'm feeling blind
I'm too deep inside
I'm too deep inside
I'm too deep inside
This mortar grind --
Now it's mine, all broken inside
A product of their fine
Mortar grind
(Burn it away)
All this vile
Sulphur and brine
I keep deep inside
(Oh) Burn it away
Burn it away
Oh, burn it away
Burn it away

Lana Del Rey - Video Games
Swinging in the backyard
Pull up in your fast car
Whistling my name
Open up a beer
And you say get over here
And play a video game
I'm in his favorite sun dress
Watching me get undressed
Take that body downtown
I say you the bestest
Lean in for a big kiss
Put his favorite perfume on
Go play a video game
It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you want to do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do
Singing in the old bars
Swinging with the old stars
Living for the fame
Kissing in the blue dark
Playing pool and wild darts
Video games
He holds me in his big arms
Drunk and I am seeing stars
This is all I think of
Watching all our friends fall
In and out of Old Paul's
This is my idea of fun
Playing video games
It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you want to do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do
(Now you do)
It's you, it's you, it's all for you
Everything I do
I tell you all the time
Heaven is a place on earth with you
Tell me all the things you want to do
I heard that you like the bad girls
Honey, is that true?
It's better than I ever even knew
They say that the world was built for two
Only worth living if somebody is loving you
Baby now you do

In Vain: The Latter Rain - lyrics
[instrumental]
2. IN THE MIDNIGHT HOUR
In the midnight hour
The moment it all will come down
The earth will roar and its people will tremble
As the unforeseeable comes to pass
In the roaring of the midnight hour
Some day
Beware until morning comes
Some will succumb, but some will never surrender
Their agonized screams abrubtly quelled
In this moment families will be torn apart
In the roaring of the midnight hour
Some day
Beware until morning comes
A world full of hate
Where love is weakness
People are deceived by snakes
So many fail to see through their veil of lies
Man striving for none but himself
Human greed drives this world to the edge
One day will they all regret
In the midnight hour
In the midnight hour
The moment it all will come down
The earth will shake and people shiver
The unforeseeable will come to pass
In the roaring of the midnight hour
Some day
People will fall and some will never surrender
The masses, raped, cry out in pain
When it will happen families will be ripped apart
In the roaring of the midnight hour
Some day
Beware until morning comes
Morning brings the rising sun
The beginning of a new world
Serenity, deliverance
For some
Hear the pounding of the drums
The moment of truth will rend all we knew
Hear the sound of the mighty horn
In a winter night so glimmering and
cold eternity will rise
3. DET RAKNER!
Kunstig fremtidsoptimisme
og falsk glede.
Harde kår og fremtidens vrede.
Håpet svinner, bedrøvede sinn.
Bringer morgendagen glede
led den inn
Livet vi levde svinner hen.
Gleder vi deler blir færre.
Livet rakner!
Ting må snu.
Livet rakner!
Vi ledes mot dypet.
Tiden går, mennesker forgår.
Brorskap går til grunne,
familier splittes.
Jammer gir gjenklang i byer.
Disharmoni er.
Livet vi levde svinner hen…
Rettferdighet må vike for urett.
Moral kveles av egoisme.
Empati er satt til side.
Likegyldighet lever.
Slit og besvær preget vår hverdag.
Prøvelser førte oss på avveier.
I ly av avmakt,
sakte vår dag forgikk.
Mennesker graver sin egen grav.
Livet vi levde svinner hen…
Rettferdighet må vike for urett…
Livet vårt rakner
vi ledes mot dypet.
Sakte vi graver vår egen grav.
Livet vårt rakner
vi ledes mot dypet.
Sakte vi graver vår egen grav.
Europa brenner.
4. OCTOBER'S MONODY
Like a thief in the night.
I didn’t see it coming.
As it creaped nearby.
It burns.
Destruction in it’s wake.
Ashes by ashes.
It will all fall apart.
Screams in the night.
No mercy to be found.
Agony rises.
Dismay and fright.
Hope is fading.
No sign of daylight.
Apathy fills the room.
Discourage takes control.
Taking what is left.
No more strengt to find.
You will find no cure for this.
Ashes by ashes.
It will all fall apart.
Screams in the night.
No mercy to be found.
Agony rises.
Dismay and fright.
Hope is fading.
No sign of daylight.
I wish I could find a ship and just sail on by.
Let the wind guide me all the way.
Watch all the birds leave and follow them.
In search for warmer land.
The rebirth of time.
Will leave no man behind.
The rebirth of time.
Will conclude the faith of all mankind.
Relieve us of our torment.
5. THEIR SPIRITS RIDE WITH THE WIND
Their spirits will rise
They will rise at the end of time
Now they ride with the wind
Across the lands of the ancient times
They possess memories of glory and fall
Their spirits will rise
Arise at the end of time
"Banished and betrayed, hunted by empires
Slaughtered in numbers, killed by plagues
The people were brave, but they were chosen to die
In the end they found rest in their promised green land
Once they moved like the wind, now their spirits ride with the wind
Their presence still lives in their pillaged lands"
6. I TOTAL TRIUMF
Mitt livstre råtnet bort i en strøm av forakt
Jeg dvelte i skyggenes bekmørke blomstereng
Avmaktsrustne kjettinger tvang meg i kne
Lenket meg til det jeg ikke ville se
Det jeg elsket ble til støv
Alt jeg hadde kjært ble sakte fortært
Svakhet ble kronet til konge
Jeg reiser meg, suveren
Med hodet hevet i all prakt
Med blodet brusende hevet over all forakt
I total triumf, et tempel i meg selv
Jeg reiser meg suveren
I en annen tid ville alt vært som før
I en annen tid ville jeg aldri slått tilbake
Jeg har aldri før vært våken
Aldri sett så klart, som jeg nå gjør
Jeg manifesterer som en koksgrå diamant
Bølgen bryter over med en voksende kakofoni
Bryggen knaker som en blodkarseksplosjon
Min resolusjon er satt
Ingenting er som før
7. THE TITAN
The global age is right upon us
The coming of a new kingdom
A colossus athwart the world
A one world government
The titan is rising in malice
A global domination
The titan will rule the earth
A new empire is rising
Mounting from greed and lust
A new world order
Mounting from greed and lust
Their hidden agenda
Total control
By the keepers of darkness
We are all enslaved
8. AS I WITHER
I wither like an oak with dead roots.
Leaves falling of…
Never to return. There is no spring in sight.
As I seek suppression and grace, I’m falling down again…
Left behind! Rage descended from bitterness.
Still the old bonds hold me. My feet stuck in the anger.
Years filled with sorrow and pain. Has hardened my heart.
Tearing my soul in pieces. My life slowly fades away.
I wither like an oak with dead roots.
Leaves falling of…
Never to return. There is no spring in sight.
As I seek suppression and grace, I’m falling down again…
Falling...
As I grasp for the utter palm. All that is left is misery.
Dragging me down. Only to feel despair again.
I wither like an oak with dead roots.
Leaves falling of…
Never to return. There is no spring in sight.
As I seek suppression and grace, I’m falling down again…
Feel the rain as it floats on by.
Rain washing clean all the sins.
Feel the smell of morning.
Before you putrefy and decay.
Vanish the absence of emptiness!
Glorify life and release.
Perish the syndrome that haunts me!
Before it drags me away…
Falling down again…
On my way into the shadows. Still the air is calm.
No longer keeping me searching. As my life fades away…
I wither like an oak with dead roots.
Leaves falling of.
Never to return. There is no spring in sight.
As I seek suppression and grace, I am falling down again…
9. MORNING SUN
[instrumental]
10. SORGENFRI
Fire
The fire within
The fire in our hearts will keep us alive
The hope for a better day
The strength of will (the will of a martyr)
Together we will see another day
Need for perseverance
Cause life is hard
Painful fact known to all
There will be no more pain
Our inner flame gives hope
The fire brings rest to weary souls
Every tear in our eyes will be wiped away
There will be no more death, no mourning
The old order of things will perish
The soul is quiet, the world is empty
And everything is vacant
Together
We will find our way
Freed from the shackles of discord and repine
Always remember
A brand new morning will come
In times of sorrow, in times of pain
Hold on
To the bitter end
Through worst tempest we shall stand adamant
We shall not be moved
In the midst of a storm
For the sake of mankind
We will overcome
In Vain: Wounds EP - lyrics

3. IN REMEMBERANCE
I saw a future standing
before my weary eyes.
A reformation of life,
grasp or decay.
Frightened by light,
this opportunity escaped.
Lonely and cold,
hiding from daylight.
These burdensome longings
tearing me apart
I hold my breath
to stay alive
I’m lost in confusion,
stranded on air
I remain in despair.
Waiting in silence,
hiding the pain.
I enter nightfall,
never left any trace.
Only memories of what
could have been remain.
In my secret plight.
These burdensome longings
tearing me apart...
Through the sorrows of
my life I slowly realize.
My longing, my desperation
can not be cured.
Before the pain in my heart
has been tread apart.
These burdensome longings
tearing me apart...
No one ever saw me gleam.
4. EPILOGUE: ALENE
Jeg rir i nattens måneskinn,
for dette er min skjebne.
En hvileløs som lever kun
om nettene, alene.
Med min sjel knust til grus,
holdes jeg i skyggen
av hender fra et liv engang,
Som nå har vendt meg ryggen.
Jeg hater og beundrer de som
gjennom søvn kan rømme
inn i fantasien. De som tar for
gitt å drømme.
Stillheten er voldsom.
En skrikende sirene
som hånlig henger over meg.
Den vet jeg er alene
Den kjenner min historie,
og leser fra mitt minne,
fra bildene jeg aldri maktet
å få til å forsvinne.
Den vet mitt skrik er sjanseløst.
Det overdøves fort.
Her skal stillhet høres!
Her svinner lyder bort...
Hypnofobi. Mørke og natt.
Kakofoni. Ensom, forlatt.
Jeg ler i nattens måneskinn,
hvor tiden aldri går.
Forsonet med en skjebne som
jeg tror jeg nå forstår.
Jeg fremfører et skuespill.
Verden er min scene.
En enmannsforestilling
om en mann som er alene

2. CAUGHT WITHIN
So there he was again.
Standing on the edge of massive cliffs.
Longing for separation, longing for release.
Yet he is unable to claim liberation.
Still he is affected by the years from the past.
He screams out in vain.
Raises his voice, but it cracks.
Leaving wrathful echoes in the crest.
Caught within!
Naked like a child at birth, left out in the dark.
Crying like a child that hurts, forever to mourn.
The struggle continues.
He tries to forget – a seed of life is sowed.
He regains control - appearing as a glimpse of bliss.
When he draws himself up, it all seem so clear.
He won’t remorse.
His feet stumbles the first steps of the trail.
The journey has begun.
To return to where he belongs.
The march leads upon unknown paths, giving new perspectives.
He attends a funeral of the old.
Finally home and a cold wind blows in his face.
He watches his friends come to his rescue, or...
They stare at him with a fleeting glance.
He replies quietly, believes he is forgiven.
But again he is deceived.
Betrayed by those he loved.
The old man wipes the dust off his jacket.
I guess, for some the sun never sets...
3. A VISION BY NIGHT
A strange dream brought me into to a mortal state of mind.
All of a sudden a shadow whispered: “Come!”
By it’s presence I was enticed into a divine dimension.
I became able to see through time.
I saw how it all would end.
I witnessed the nature decay.
Through the mist in my dream, it all came clear
There is no future.
Dreams will be shattered and hope will vanish in the night
The revenant followed me through the fields.
He guided me past the inner circle.
It was beyond time I realized.
What was to come.
I saw how the world would end.
I witnessed the fall of mankind.
Through the mist in my dream, it all came clear
There is no future.
Dreams will be shattered and hope will vanish in the night
Suddenly a voice broke the silence:
“Release us while I’m still breathing!”
I looked for spread of hope, but found none.
The moon had called for the night.
Slowly demoralized…
My face turned pale.
I saw dreary people everywhere.
Most of them had lost some of their friends.
I watched them mourn, as they searched for survivors among the dead.
We have been led to believe the untrue, forced to kiss our king on his feet.
I saw how it all would end.
I witnessed the nature decay.
Through the mist in my dream, it all came clear
There is no future.
Dreams will be shattered and hope will vanish in the night
Poezjoaza (8):
LAVINIA GREENLAW - UCAŁOWANIA Z OBCEGO MIASTA
Najdroższy, karaluchy mają małe.
Jeden z nich spadł mi z sufitu do ginu
ale obyło się bez szkody. Była matka.
Pokazałam jej ślady zębów na drewnianym kojcu,
a one dała mi adres znajomego szczurołapa.
Był pod takim wrażeniem dziury w jej syfonie,
że wziął go ze sobą do prywatnego muzeum.
Nie mogę spać. Wykopują dzieciaki
na bagnisku w Hackney. Wyczytałam w gazecie, że
kiedy dziewczynka wołała o pomoc,
facet wyciął jej język. O krok od nas.
Mieliśmy nowe alarmy bombowe,
ale tylko o świcie i tylko na przedmieściach.
No i ten atak moździerzy. Słyszeliśmy z pokoju,
dudnięcie, jakby ktoś upuścił stół.
Mówią, że te żyjątka, co wyłażą z kranu,
są całkiem niegroźne. Weszła w życie ustawa
o niebezpiecznych psach: kaganiec, tatuaż, kastracja.
Kiedy ten labrador z sąsiedztwa skakał
na powitanie Billie, cały się posikał.
Na North Road zamykają sklepy.
Nigdzie nie naprawisz butów.
Ulice jednokierunkowe zmieniają kierunek,
zgubiłam się zaledwie kilka metrów od domu.
Na nowym planie miasta zaznaczono obszary
"w trakcie budowy". Zniszczono nawet
nazwy ulic. Na Finchley pojawił się tyfus.
Matka przywiozła mi drzewko lawendowe.

Gałczyński(2):
NOC
1
Noc straszliwa, straszliwa,
wiatr drzewami potrząsa,
noc jest taka świstliwa,
noc jest taka gorąca,
płynie miłość pod korą,
płynie miłość po liściach
i ptaki gubią pióra
jak ja me rękopisy.
Bo noc jest, noc jak walc.
2
Na most, na most wybiegnij, ach, trzymaj mocno bukiet,
by ci go wiatr nie wyrwał.
Twe imię jest ze szmaragdu.
Wiatr twoje włosy porusza - znam ich tajemny alfabet,
linie pierścieni i pukli, i loków. Do świtu jeszcze daleko.
Słyszysz, jak płynie noc? przygrywa jak stare zegary
na wieżach miast zatopionych -
twe imię jest z wiatru.
3
A kiedy noc otworzy się jak brama
i sennych rzeźb rozwinie wzór na bramie,
ty będziesz znów jak wczoraj taka sama,
zadźwięczy głos, który nie kłamie.
Na jasną dłoń upadnie ciemność słodka
i włosów puch dębowych liści dotknie.
Pochwalmy noc, że jest jak otchłań,
że spadać w nią jest tak cudownie.
A kiedy świt zastanie nas znużonych,
bitych przez wiatr i chorych jak od wina,
znów jak fortepian będzie potłuczony
ta noc, ta noc, wciąż głębsza rwąca rana.

In Vain - October's Monody
Like a thief in the night.
I didn't see it coming.
As it creaped nearby.
It burns.
Destruction in it's wake.
Ashes by ashes.
It will all fall apart.
Screams in the night.
No mercy to be found.
Agony rises.
Dismay and fright.
Hope is fading.
No sign of daylight.
Apathy fills the room.
Discourage takes control.
Taking what is left.
No more strength to find.
You will find no cure for this.
Ashes by ashes.
It will all fall apart.
Screams in the night.
No mercy to be found.
Agony rises.
Dismay and fright.
Hope is fading.
No sign of daylight.
I wish I could find a ship and just sail on by.
Let the wind guide me all the way.
Watch all the birds leave and follow them.
In search for warmer land.
The rebirth of time.
Will leave no man behind.
The rebirth of time.
Will conclude the faith of all mankind.
Relieve us of our torment.
