Amor no metal (Partes X & XI)

After Forever, “My Pledge Of Allegiance #1: The Sealed Fate“, (Decipher)

**

“She kept her beauty concealed

Behind a curtain of suspense

And endures her fate

Molded by an ancient culture

*

The honour wasn’t allowed

To be injured

She is going to live as her

Community expects her to

*

I find myself confined

Between furtive desires and feelings of guilt

*

(the letter):

‘These are my last words, I’m gonna leave you

I can’t stand your narrow mindedness any longer

Forgive me’”

***

After Forever, “My Pledge Of Allegiance #2: The Tempted Fate“, (Decipher)

**

“My decision is fixed

The suitcases are packed

I’m laying the letter on the table

*

Tonight, I will be safe and the fears will be over

I shall outline my own way again!

*

I’m walking to the door,

open it and look behind for the last time…

*

Tonight, I will be safe and the fears will be over

I shall outline my own way again!

*

…but he’s at the doorstep, this can’t be real

He’s surprised because he notices my bags,

Immediately he grabs my wrists and pushes me inside

I realise I’m lost…

*

‘Oh no, what have you done?

What have you done? Where is your self respect?

You’ve defiled our honour and your throth

You crossed the line

*

You won’t get out this time

You won’t get out

There’s no other solution then requite you for this insult’

*

…but he’s at the doorstep, this can’t be real

He’s surprised because he notices my bags

Immediately he grabs my wrists and pushes me inside

While he’s reading the letter I realise I’m lost…

*

(Faded beauty, her body trembles…

The scars of this dream will always be remembered)”

Amor no metal (Parte IX)

ReVamp, “Sweet Curse“, (ReVamp)

***

“It’s a burden for wrong reasons

But I keep hold of this pain

No more tears but common sorrow

Yet it wears of day by day

Letting go: I never could but I surely need to heal

Sweet curse, my hell

*

You bare our memories like staining scars within your mind

You lose all that you knew of me, gone deep inside

Lost love, my hell

*

Sweet is the curse of hearts entwined but lost, detached but bound

Sad is their fate without relief

Cruel is the curse of love, so luscious yet so dangerous

Sweet curse, our hell

*

Words weren’t made to tell this story

For I can’t describe the ache

No remorse for your betrayal

Yet though I find that hard to take

How can beauty change unseen into a monster, I don’t know

Lost love is my hell

*

Sweet is the curse of hearts entwined but lost, detached but bound

Sad is their fate without relief

Cruel is the curse of love, so luscious yet so dangerous

Sweet curse, our hell

*

Lost hope and lost dreams

Killing you slowly

New scars and new cravings take control

(New desires, new despair)

*

Losing you was more than I could bear

Losing us, a dive in water deep

Losing you

*

Sweet is the curse of hearts entwined but lost, detached but bound

Sad is their fate without relief

Cruel is the curse of love, so luscious yet so dangerous

Sweet curse, our hell”

Amor no metal (Parte VIII)

Symphony X, “The Sacrifice“, (Paradise Lost)

***

“Your eyes, singing to me sweet lullabies

while you lay there in submission

Forbidden desire

alone in the moonlight hearts afire -

burn away our inhibitions

*

When the stars lose their fire

And night steals the morning away

Forever and a day

I will stay – I will stay here with you my love

*

Sacrifice, a heartbeat away from paradise

All my reason’s giving way to temptation

Fear and Shame – looking for someone else to blame

We’re devoured by these fruitless accusations

*

With every fleeting breath I take

Maybe our love was a mistake

Eternal life – I’d trade it for

One moment beside you…

*

When the stars lose their fire

And night steals the morning away

Forever and a day

*

When the stars lose their fire

And night taked the morning away

Forever and a day

I will stay – I will stay here with you my love”

Amor no metal (Parte VII)

Kamelot, “The Haunting (Somewhere In Time)“, (The Black Halo)

***

“Merely the sound of your voice

Made me believe that

that you were her

Just like the river disturbs

…my inner peace

Once I believed I could find

Just a trace of her beloved soul

Once I believed she was all

Then she smothered my beliefs

*

One cold winter’s night

I may follow her voice to the river

Leave me for now and forever

Leave while you can

*

Somewhere in time

I will find you and haunt you again

Like the wind sweeps the earth

Somewhere in time

When no virtues are left to defend

You fall in deep

*

I was a liar in every debate

I rule the forces that fueled your hate

When the cold in my heart leaves

It comes to an end

And quietly I’ll go to sleep

*

How could that first time recur

When memories linger on and on

What made me think you were her

Helena is dead to all

dead to all

Nothing can bring her to life

Don’t pretend that I’ll be loving you

Once I believed she was gone

But I’m corrupted from within

*

Leave me for now and forever

Leave while you can

*

Somewhere in time

I will find you and haunt you again

Like the wind sweeps the earth

Somewhere in time

When no virtues are left to defend

You fall in deep

*

I was a liar in every debate

I rule the forces that fueled your hate

When the cold in my heart leaves

It comes to an end

And quietly I’ll go to sleep

*

[Ariel] Follow me into the light

[Marguerite] Like ice on a lake of tears I’ll take you through

[Ariel] Leave me tonight

[Ariel] I’ve gone too far to begin all anew / [Marguerite] Life fades in anew

[Ariel / Marguerite] With someone like you

*

Somewhere in time

I will find you and haunt you again

Like the wind sweeps the earth

Somewhere in time

When no virtues are left to defend

You fall in deep

*

I was a liar in every debate

I rule the forces that fueled your hate

When the cold in my heart leaves

It comes to an end

And quietly I’ll go to sleep”

Amor no metal (Parte VI)

Dream Theater, “Scene Four: Beyond This Life“, (Metropolis – Pt. 2: Scenes From A Memory)

***

“[Headline:] “Murder, young girl killed

Desperate shooting at Echoe`s hill

Dreadful ending, killer died

Evidently suicide”

*

A witness heard a horrifying sound

He ran to find a woman dead and

Lying on the ground

*

Standing by her was a man

Nervous, shaking, gun in hand

Witness says he tried to help

But he`d turned the weapon on himself

*

His body fell across that poor young girl

After shouting out in vain

The witness ran to call for assistance

A sad close to a broken love affair

*

Our deeds have traveled far

What we have been is what we are

*

She wanted love forever

But he had another plan

He fell into an evil way

She had to let him down

She said “I can`t love a wayward man”

*

She may have found a reason to forgive

If he had only tried to change

Was their fatal meeting prearranged?

*

Had a violent struggle taken place?

There was every sign that lead there

Witness found a switchblade on the ground

Was the victim unaware?

They continued to investigate

They found a note in the killer`s pocket

It could have been a suicide letter

Maybe he had lost her love

*

I feel there`s only one thing left to do

I’d sooner take my life away than live with losing you

*

Our deeds have traveled far

What we have been is what we are

*

All that we learn this time

(What we have been is what we are)

Is carried beyond this life”
