I can roar but have no voice,
I can run but cannot walk,
I can die but cannot live.
What am I?

Salm got close. (Rivers don't die.) It is indeed a car, or more broadly, an internal combustion engine. You say true, sai.

Actually, depending on who you talk to, a river can die.

Sorry, but that's ancillary to the answer; the answer is "internal combustion engine" or, to be gracious, any vehicle which uses one.

Next:

Beyond the stars and behind your eyes, I bring news of death and death to laughter.

I sing and scream
I am everywhere and nowhere
I bring Storms or are driven before them
I am biting cold or oven hot
I can freeze you to the bone or sorch you
WAI?(What am I?)
