(Nightwish: "Bye Bye Beautiful", aus dem Album "Dark Passion Play", 2007)
Finally the hills are without eyes
They are tired of painting
A dead man's face red with their own blood
They used to love
Having so much to lose
Blink your eyes just once and see everything in ruins
Did you ever hear what I told you
Did you ever read what I wrote you
Did you ever listen to what we played
Did you ever let in what the world said
Did we get this far just to feel your hate
Did we play to become only pawns in the game
How blind can you be, don't you see
You chose the long road but we'll be waiting
Bye bye beautiful ...
Jacob's ghost for the girl in white
Blindfold for the blind
Dead siblings walking the dying earth
Noose around a choking heart
Eternity torn apart
Slow toll now the funeral bells
I need to die to feel alive
Did you ever hear what I told you
Did you ever read what I wrote you
Did you ever listen to what we played
Did you ever let in what the world said
Did we get this far just to feel your hate
Did we play to become only pawns in the game
How blind can you be, don't you see
You chose the long road but we'll be waiting
Bye bye beautiful ...
It's not the tree that forsakes the flower
But the flower that forsakes the tree
Someday I'll learn to love these scars
Still fresh from the red-hot blade of your words
How blind can you be, don't you see
How blind can you be, don't you see
How blind can you be, don't you see ...
that the gambler lost all he does not have ...
Did you ever hear what I told you
Did you ever read what I wrote you
Did you ever listen to what we played
Did you ever let in what the world said
Did we get this far just to feel your hate
Did we play to become only pawns in the game
How blind can you be, don't you see
You chose the long road but we'll be waiting
Bye bye beautiful ...
Bye bye.

Es wäre schön, wenn Du nicht "anonym" kommentierst - falls Du kein passendes Profil hast, denk Dir doch einfach einen passenden Nicknamen aus und trage diesen unter "Wählen Sie eine Identität aus: Name/URL" ein (das Feld "URL" kannst Du dann einfach frei lassen). Ansonsten geht Dein Kommentar - falls er mal im Spam-Ordner landet - in den zunehmenden und stets "anonymen" Spam-Botschaften allzu leicht verloren. Vielen Dank! :-)
Wichtig: Bitte den geschriebenen Kommentar vor dem Abschicken markieren und in die Zwischenablage kopieren, damit er nicht im Nirwana verschwindet, falls der Text (was hier aus mir unbekannten Gründen leider gelegentlich vorkommen kann) beim ersten Versuch nicht ankommen sollte.
Entschuldigen muss ich mich für die furchtbare "Captcha-Abfrage": Die stammt nicht von mir (ich habe diesen Bullshit in den Blogeinstellungen ausdrücklich für alle - also auch für anonyme - Poster abgeschaltet), sondern vom großen Bruder Google persönlich - und ich habe keinerlei Einflussmöglichkeiten darauf.
Kommentare zu Postings, die älter als drei Wochen sind, werden wegen des Spamschutzes nicht sofort freigeschaltet.
