《Song Of Myself》歌词

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

[00:00:45] The nightingale is still locked in the cage

[00:00:50] The deep breath I took still poisons my lungs

[00:00:56] An old oak sheltering me from the blue

[00:01:01] Sun bathing on its dead frozen leaves

[00:01:07] A catnap in the ghost town of my heart

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

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

[00:01:23] Raving harlequins' gigantic toys

[00:01:28] A song of mea song in need

[00:01:32] Of a courageous symphony

[00:01:35] A verse of mea verse in need

[00:01:38] Of a ppureheart singing me to peace

[00:01:41] All that great heart lying still and slowly dying

[00:01:44] All that great heart lying still on an angelwing

[00:01:51] All that great heart lying still

[00:01:55] In silent suffering

[00:01:58] Smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end

[00:02:03] What is left for encore

[00:02:04] Is the same old dead boy's song

[00:02:07] Sung in silence

[00:02:10] All that great heart lying still and slowly dying

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

[00:02:27] A midnight flight into Covington Woods

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

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

[00:02:42] I'd still give mt everything to love you more

[00:02:48] A song of mea song in need

[00:02:51] Of a courageous symphony

[00:02:55] A verse of mea verse in need

[00:02:58] Of a ppureheart singing me to peace

[00:03:01] All that great heart lying still and slowly dying

[00:03:04] All that great heart lying still on an angelwing

[00:03:11] All that great heart lying still

[00:03:15] In silent suffering

[00:03:18] Smiling like a clown until the show has come to an end

[00:03:22] What is left for encore

[00:03:24] Is the same old dead boy's song

[00:03:27] Sung in silence

[00:03:29] All that great heart lying still and slowly dying

[00:03:32] All that great heart lying still on an angelwing

[00:04:03] A silent symphony

[00:04:16] A hollow opus 1'2'3

[00:04:28] Sometimes the sky is piano black

[00:04:42] Piano black over cleansing waters

[00:04:53] Resting pipes' verse of bore

[00:05:06] Rusting keys without a door

[00:05:19] Sometimes the within is piano black

[00:05:32] Piano black over cleansing waters

[00:06:11] All that great heart lying still and slowly dying

[00:06:17] All that great heart lying still on an angelwing

[00:06:24] All that great heart lying still and slowly dying

[00:06:30] All that great heart lying still on an angelwing

[00:07:07] I see a slow' simple youngster by a busy street'

[00:07:11] with a begging bowl in his shaking hand

[00:07:14] Trying to smile but hurting infinitely Nobody notices

[00:07:21] I do' but walk by

[00:07:26] An old man gets naked and kisses a modeldoll in his attic

[00:07:31] It's halflight and he's in tears

[00:07:34] When he finally comes his eyes are cascading

[00:07:39] I see a beaten dog in a pungent alley He tries to bite me

[00:07:45] All pride has left his wild injured eyes

[00:07:48] I wish I had my leg to spare

[00:07:54] A mother visits her son' smiles to him through the bars

[00:07:58] She's never loved him more

[00:08:01] An obese girl enters an elevator with me

[00:08:05] All dressed up fancy' a green butterfly on her neck

[00:08:10] Terribly sweet perfume deafens me

[00:08:14] She's going to dinner alone

[00:08:17] That makes her even more beautiful

[00:08:20] I see a model's face on a brick wall

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

[00:08:30] A city that worships flesh

[00:08:46] The 1st thing I ever heard was a wandering

[00:08:50] man telling his story

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

[00:08:57] The campfire in the dead of night

[00:09:00] The heavenly black of sky and sea

[00:09:05] It was us

[00:09:07] Roaming the rainy roads' combing the guilded beaches

[00:09:13] Waking up to a new gallery of wonders every morn

[00:09:18] Bathing in places noone's seen before

[00:09:23] Shipwrecked on some mattpainted island

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

[00:09:36] Beyond all mortality we are' swinging in the breath of nature

[00:09:43] In early air of the dawn of life

[00:09:47] A sight to silence the heavens

[00:09:53] I want to travel where life travels'

[00:09:56] following its permanent lead

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

[00:10:02] Where grass smells like freshborn Eden

[00:10:05] I would pass no man' no stranger' no tragedy or rapture

[00:10:11] I would bathe in a world of sensation

[00:10:14] Love' goodness and simplicity

[00:10:19] While violated and imprisoned by technology

[00:10:27] The thought of my family's graves was the only moment

[00:10:30] I used to experience true love

[00:10:33] That love remains infintie'

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

[00:10:39] How can you just be yourself

[00:10:42] when you don't know who you are

[00:10:45] Stop saying I know how you feel

[00:10:47] How could anyone know how another feels

[00:10:52] Who am I to judge a priest beggar

[00:10:55] whore politician wrongdoer

[00:11:00] I am you are all of them already

[00:11:16] Dear child stop working go play

[00:11:20] Forget every rule

[00:11:23] There's no fear in a dream

[00:11:28] Is there a village inside this snowflake

[00:11:32] a child aske me

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

[00:11:40] I've never been so close to truth as then

[00:11:46] I touched its silver lining

[00:11:54] Death is the winner in any war

[00:11:57] Nothing noble in dying for your religion

[00:12:00] For your country

[00:12:02] For ideology for faith

[00:12:06] For another man yes

[00:12:17] Paper is dead without words

[00:12:19] Ink idle without a poem

[00:12:22] All the world dead without stories

[00:12:25] Without love and disarming beauty

[00:12:32] Careless realism costs souls

[00:12:37] Ever seen the Lord smile

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

[00:12:44] Why do we still carry a device of torture around our necks

[00:12:49] Oh how rotten your preapocalypse is

[00:12:52] All you bibleblack fools living over nightmare ground

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

[00:13:05] If man will never change

[00:13:08] I too wish to be a decent manboy but all I am

[00:13:14] Is smoke and mirrors

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

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