nightwish - song of myself (live, at wacken, 2013) lyrics

Loading...

[part i: from a dusty bookshelf]

[non+lyrical vocals]

[part ii: all that great heart lying still]

[verse 1: floor jansen]
the nightingale is still locked in the cage
the deep breath i took still poisons my lungs
an old oak sheltering me from the blue
sun bathing on its dead frozen leaves

[verse 2: floor jansen]
catnap in the ghost town of my heart
she dreams of storytime and the river ghosts
of mermaids, of whitman’s and the ride
raging harlequins, gigantic toys

[pre+chorus: floor jansen]
a song of me a song in need
of a courageous symphony
a verse of me a verse in need
of a pure heart singing me to peace

[refrain]
all that great heart lying
still and slowly dying
all that great heart lying
still on an angelwing
[chorus: marco hietala & floor jansen]
all that great heart lying still
in silent suffering
smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end
what is left for encore
is the same old dead boy’s song
sung in silence

[refrain]
all that great heart lying
still and slowly dying
all that great heart lying
still on an angelwing

[verse 3: marco hietala & floor jansen]
oh
a midnight flight into covington woods
a princess and a panther by my side
these are territories i live for
still give my everything to love you more

[pre+chorus: floor jansen]
a song of me a song in need
of a courageous symphony
a verse of me a verse in need
of a pure heart singing me to peace
[refrain]
all that great heart lying
still and slowly dying
all that great heart lying
still on an angelwing

[chorus: marco hietala & floor jansen]
now all that great heart lying still
in silent suffering
smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end
what is left for encore
is the same old dead boy’s song
sung in silence

[refrain]
all that great heart lying
still and slowly dying
all that great heart lying
still on an angelwing

[part iii: piano black]

[instrumental break]

[verse 1: floor jansen]
silent symphony
hollow opus one, two, three
[chorus: floor jansen]
sometimes the sky is piano black
piano black over cleansing waters

[verse 2: floor jansen]
resting pipes, verse of bore
rusting keys without a door

[chorus: floor jansen]
sometimes the within is piano black
piano black over cleansing waters

[instrumental break]

[refrain: floor jansen & marco hietala]
all that great heart lying
still and slowly dying
all that great heart lying
still on an angelwing
all that great heart lying
still and slowly dying
all that great heart lying
still on an angelwing

[spoken outro: floor jansen & marco hietala]
wacken open air
let us thank you
with you, we have immortalized this special evening
and i think that dvd is going to kick ass
with an audience like you guys
what more can we wish for?
thank you guys so much
yeah baby, i agree
but even to
the most magical nights like these
to the most wonderful stories
even to fairytales
everything comes to an end
but if you’ve had a beautiful story
let’s just add one more good memory to this evening
and make a final ride together
how’s that?
