There's a few I associate with heartbreak, but there's one I'll always think of that makes me heartbroken due to the extent of the sadness present in it.

My Dying Bride - For My Fallen Angel

As I draw up my breath,
And silver fills my eyes.
I kiss her still,
For she will never rise.
On my weak body,
Lays her dying hand.

Through those meadows of Heaven,
Where we ran.
Like a thief in the night,
The wind blows so light.
It wars with my tears,
That won't dry for many years.
Loves golden arrow
At her should have fled,
And not Deaths ebon dart
To strike her dead.


Though the lyrics aren't that great, the actual tune of the song makes me want to weep. :(

Again, another utterly gutting song, that was "our song" when some manipulative bitch was attempting to go out with me, it reminds me of how crappy people can be even if they want you, and the trainwreck of heartbreak before anything actually happens...bleh:

Stone Sour - Bother

Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me shit to digest
I wish I had a reason;
my flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
One good turn deserves my dying

You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

[Solo: Corey]

Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgotten
with its memories
Diaries left
with cryptic entries

And you don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on:
I'll never live down my deceit


And since I never go a thread without mentioning Fear Factory...this song reminds me of the end of the school era, just before my tight circle of friends fragmented, I listened to this song before we went on our big night out, it was lovely weather, absolutely gorgeous...i was staring out of the window of my room and it felt like I was the only person in the world. A very eerie feeling.

A Therapy For Pain

I welcome death with open arms
Her soft breath and simple charm
Wandering through memories
Takes my hand for me to see

Tried so hard
Tried so hard

Echoes of innocence
All my thoughts into dissent

Tried so hard
Tried so hard
Tried so hard
Tried so hard

When we finally reach the end
She lets go of my hand
Waking into realms of light
There will be no death tonight

Tried so hard
Tried so hard
Tried so hard
Tried so hard


And actually, when my first love turned out to be a lesbian...this song I listened to loads and loads, and somehow, managed to identify with it intensely. This is one of the reasons I'll always like Korn, no matter if their guitarist goes and finds god and they start making poo albums.:

Korn - Let's Get This Party Started

When I'm crying
Take's me to a certain place
Which I don't often find
I see a family walking
Always thinking of
Being somewhere else in time
So I fall face down
In a rut
I can't seem to get out of
Please wake me
Please give me some of it back
The feelings I had

Sometimes I wish
I could be strong like you
It doesn't matter
Each time I wake
I'm somehow feeling the truth
I can't handle

Let's get this party started
I'm sick of begging you
You make me feel insane
Which I did to you
Let's get this party started
You make me feel insane
I want to be the one
To make myself sane

Time is ticking
It makes me feel content
With what I have inside
Constant paranoia
Surrounds me
Everyone I see
Is out to get me

So I fall face down
In a rut
I can't seem to get out of
Please wake me
Please give me some of it back
The feelings I had

Sometimes I wish
I could be strong like you
It doesn't matter
Each time I wake
I'm somehow feeling the truth
I can't handle

Let's get this party started
I'm sick of begging you
You make me feel insane
Which I did to you
Let's get this party started
You make me feel insane
I want to be the one
To make myself sane

You make me feel insane
You make me feel insane
You make me feel insane
You make me feel insane
You make me feel insane
You make me feel insane

Sometimes I wish
I could be strong like you
It doesn't matter
Each time I wake
I'm somehow feeling the truth
I can't handle

Let's get this party started
I'm sick of begging you
You make me feel insane
Which I did to you
Let's get this party started
You make me feel insane
I want to be the one
To make myself sane

I have two

Mr Brightside by the Killers.

The day that she left me, I for some reason couldn't stop listening to this song and thinking of her with her best friend. I tried to tell myself that nothing was going on between her and him. Then She calls

The second is Dry Your Eyes, by The Streets. This song almost entrily describes our finnal moments together

Mr Brightside - The Killers

I'm coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his—chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, let me go

I just can’t look its killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
‘Cause I’m Mr Brightside

I’m coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his—chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, let me go

I just can’t look its killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibi
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
‘Cause I’m Mr Brightside

I never...
I never...
I never...
Dry Your Eyes - The Streets

In one single moment your whole life can turn 'round
I stand there for a minute starin' straight into the ground
Lookin' to the left slightly, then lookin' back down
World feels like it's caved in - proper sorry frown
Please let me show you where we could only just be, for us
I can change and I can grow or we could adjust
The wicked thing about us is we always have trust
We can even have an open relationship, if you must
I look at her she stares almost straight back at me
But her eyes glaze over like she's lookin' straight through me
Then her eyes must have closed for what seems an eternity
When they open up she's lookin' down at her feet

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now
It's over

So then I move my hand up from down by my side
It's shakin', my life is crashin' before my eyes
Turn the palm of my hand up to face the skies
Touch the bottom of her chin and let out a sigh
'Cause I can't imagine my life without you and me
There's things I can't imagine doin', things I can't imagine seein'
It weren't supposed to be easy, surely
Please, please, I beg you please
She brings her hands up towards where my hands rested
She wraps her fingers round mine with the softness she's blessed with
She peels away my fingers, looks at me and then gestures
By pushin' my hand away to my chest, from hers

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now
It's over

And I'm just standin' there, I can't say a word
'Cause everythin's just gone
I've got nothin'
Absolutely nothin'

Tryin' to pull her close out of bare desperation
Put my arms around her tryin' to change what she's sayin'
Pull my head level with hers so she might engage in
Look into her eyes to make her listen again
I'm not gonna fuckin', just fuckin' leave it all now
'Cause you said it'd be forever and that was your vow
And you're gonna let our things simply crash and fall down
You're well out of order now, this is well out of town
She pulls away, my arms are tightly clamped round her waist
Gently pushes me back and she looks at me straight
Turns around so she's now got her back to my face
Takes one step forward, looks back, and then walks away

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now
It's over

I know in the past I've found it hard to say
Tellin' you things, but not tellin' straight
But the more I pull on your hand and say
The more you pull away

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now.

Here's some more songs I listen to during those dark times...
Coven 13 - And Oh, How I Wanted You wrote:I don't know, why it's so hard for me
to tell, you the feelings in my heart
Seems like everytime, I find just the right words to say
I breathe and then the moment's gone

And oh how I wanted you
And oh how I needed you
And oh how I wanted you my love

And oh how I wanted you
And oh how I needed you
And oh how I wanted you my love

If you could read my mind
You'd know down deep inside of me
How I'm afraid to let it show
Your kiss could set me free
If only you would beleive in me
And I promise never to let go

And oh how I wanted you
And oh how I needed you
And oh how I wanted you my love

And oh how I wanted you
And oh how I needed you
And oh how I wanted you my love

I don't know
Why it's so hard for me
To tell you the feelings in my heart
This one got me through many a dark lonely pained nights
Coven 13 - In Heaven wrote:In Heaven
I'll be right there by your side
In Heaven
you won't cry yourself to sleep at night

I promise I'll wait for you
In Heaven, is where our dreams come true

In Heaven
I will never go away
In Heaven
You will never have to stay

Come fly away with me
In Heaven, is where we both will be

Come join the choir of angels
As our voices rise, as one
Singing praises of forever
Whatever thy wish, it will be done

Whatever thy wish, it will be done
Whatever thy wish, it will be done

In Heaven
you will never walk alone
In Heaven
All the light will guide you home
My love for thee, thee thee
In Heaven
Is where we will spend eternity

Come join the Choir of Angels
As our voices rise as One
Singing praises of forever
Whatever thy wish, it will be done
Whatever thy wish, it will be done
Whatever thy wish, it will be

In Heaven (heaven heaven heaven)
Heaven (heaven heaven heaven)

Come join the Choir of Angels
As our voices rise as One
Singing praises of forever
Whatever thy wish, it will be done
Whatever thy wish, it will be done
Whatever thy wish, it will be done
this one I found soothing....for some reason
Coven 13 - Ophealia's Lament wrote: She watches the moon
As she sits by the window
She's locked far away
Safe inside her memories
No Hurt
No Pain
No Promises ever broken


She's wearing white
As the sky, fades from dark to light

Darling Ophealia
Dance your my, dance my love
Darling Ophealia
Lament; lament my love.

She stands on a hill
Wild flowers in her hair
She kisses the wind
And runs about, without a care
She smiles and knows
In her secret place she's all alone

Nothing to fear
Every wish, is granted here

Darling Ophealia
Dance your my, dance my love
Darling Ophealia
Lament, lament my love

(echoing woman speaks)
The crying joy calleth out to the mourning heart
Great care opens Gods Heart
Love of Madness
the wisdom of Silence
Can be heard screaming
I exsist in the spell of the melody
I cry great tears,
my soul wanders laughing at frivalities cruel games
God ever watcheth the faithful
I die, once again.

(end spokne part)

Darling Ophealia
Dance your my, dance my love
Darkling Ophealia
Lament, lament my love

She watches the world
As it goes by her window
Shadows on the wall
As the Sun, is reaching in
To be so free
She isn't like you and me

She sits and she waits
Sits and waits
Till he goes away
That's all those I listen to from Coven 13...there's a buncha more I do..but these usually are on the playlist more often than not.

I always liked Love Song For a Vampire, in fact I'm about to put it on the player, but I never really took it so much as a heartbreak song.

As for being old enough to appreciate various forms of music, chronologically you're old enough to remember the Big Band era, so it's no surprise. :P

Depends on what you consider a heartbreak song I guess.

You know, the Terry MacGuiness option becomes more enticing by the minute :P

Martha, by Tom Waits:

Operator, number, please:
it's been so many years
Will she remember my old voice
while I fight the tears?
Hello, hello there, is this Martha?
this is old Tom Frost,
And I am calling long distance,
don't worry 'bout the cost.
'Cause it's been forty years or more,
now Martha please recall,
Meet me out for coffee,
where we'll talk about it all.

And those were the days of roses,
poetry and prose and Martha
all I had was you and all you had was me.
There was no tomorrows,
we'd packed away our sorrows
And we saved them for a rainy day.

And I feel so much older now,
and you're much older too,
How's your husband?
and how's the kids?
you know that I got married too?
Lucky that you found someone
to make you feel secure,
'Cause we were all so young and foolish,
now we are mature.

And those were the days of roses,
poetry and prose and Martha
all I had was you and all you had was me.
There was no tomorrows,
we'd packed away our sorrows
And we saved them for a rainy day.

And I was always so impulsive,
I guess that I still am,
And all that really mattered then
was that I was a man.
I guess that our being together
was never meant to be.
And Martha, Martha,
I love you can't you see?

And those were the days of roses,
poetry and prose and Martha
all I had was you and all you had was me.
There was no tomorrows,
we'd packed away our sorrows
And we saved them for a rainy day.

And I remember quiet evenings
trembling close to you...

Failing on a date is something, but being hurt and deceived by someone you love most. Now THAT's a heartbreak.

So I guess your heartbreak song would be either Everything About You by Ugly Kid Joe, or anything performed by Fred Durst. :P

How To Disappear Completely and Never Be Found by Radiohead.
That there, that\'s not me
I go where I please
I walk through walls
I float down the Liffey

I\'m not here
This isn\'t happening
I\'m not here, I\'m not here

In a little while
I\'ll be gone
The moment\'s already passed
Yeah, it\'s gone

I\'m not here
This isn\'t happening
I\'m not here, I\'m not here

Strobe lights and blown speakers
Fireworks and hurricanes

I\'m not here
This isn\'t happening
I\'m not here, I\'m not here....
A complete exercise in Floydian self-indulgence like most of Radiohead's music, but it strikes a chord with me...during my freshman year in college I had NO friends - none - and I spent nearly all my time not devoted to school in my room. I had very little interaction with other people. While everyone else was doing what kids like to do in college - hanging out, making new friends, going to parties - I was all alone. In a very real sense, it felt like I wasn't really there, so to speak. So this song really expresses the state of mind I was in at that time.

God, I can't believe I just wrote a screed relating my life to a Radiohead song...

Other than that, there's Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt, which FAR surprasses the NIN original. I'm not really a huge NIN fan, but Johnny sounds like he's feeling all the pain in the world and then some when he sings that song. Anyone who has ever felt sad or depressed about anything should be able to identify.

Nothing Compares 2 U by Sinnead o'Connor gets me a bit due to the shear emotion that's in the song.

Johnny Cash's verison of Bridge Over Troubled Water has the unique honour of making me laugh and feel sad at the same time due to his voice, it being funny singing the song and yet you can tell he's dieing.

For me Moby's Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad takes not just the cake but the whole fecking bakery. While not lyricaly awsome the samples and music he used to put that togeather are nothing short of breath taking.

Feh. Some of the songs have already been mentioned; I have quite a few songs I consider to be "heartache songs". However, the one currently floating around in my head has to be Something I Can Never Have, by NIN.

i still recall the taste of your tears
echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears
my favorite dreams of you still wash ashore
scraping through my head 'till i don't want to sleep anymore

you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i'm down to just one thing
and i'm starting to scare myself
you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i just want something
i just want something i can never have

you always were the one to show me how
back then i couldn't do the things that i can do now
this thing is slowly taking me apart
grey would be the color if i had a heart
come on tell me

you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i'm down to just one thing
and i'm starting to scare myself
you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i just want something
i just want something i can never have

in this place it seems like such a shame
though it all looks different now,
i know it's still the same
everywhere i look you're all i see
just a fading fucking reminder of who i used to be
come on tell me

you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i'm down to just one thing
and i'm starting to scare myself
you make this all go away
you make it all go away
i just want something
i just want something i can never have
i just want something i can never have


(copied and pasted from here because I don't feel like typing them myself)
Tugging a rhythm to the vision that's in my head
Tugging a beat to the sight of you lying
So delighted with a new understanding
Something about a little evil that makes that
Unmistakable noise I was hearing
Unmistakable sound that I know so well
Spent and sighing with a look in your eye
Spent and sighing with a look on your face like

Sweet revelation, sweet surrender
sweet, sweet surrender
Surrender...

This one isn't so much a heartache song for as one I use when I'm writing downer scenes of heartache to get in the mood.
Stabbing Westward, Waking up Beside You

I've been so alone for so long
Forgotten by the world
Forgotten to myself
Your effervescent eyes have awakened me
And brushed the dust away
But I knew you'd never stay

So I memorized the color of your eyes as I lost myself inside you
And I memorized the way our legs entwined as I drifted off beside you

I miss
God I miss
Waking up beside you

At night I cling to you, I'm so afraid
Afraid the day will come
And I'll wake and find you gone
But you promised that you'd not abandon me
And kissed my fears away
But I woke up to that day

But I had memorized the way our eyes
would meet reflected in the bathroom mirror
And I memorized your naked silhouette as you slowly brushed your hair
I miss
God I miss
Waking up beside you

I've been so alone for so long
I forgot how much it hurts
To wake up so alone

But I memorized how warm your body felt
as you lay half asleep beside me
And I memorized the way the sunlight
filled the room and played upon your body

I miss
God I miss
Waking up beside you
I miss
God I miss
Waking up beside you
And in honor of some of my more annoying bust-ups, I hereby offer Weird Al's You Don't Love Me Anymore
We've been together for so very long
But now things are changing, oh I wonder what's wrong?
Seems you don't want me around
The passion is gone and the flame's died down

I guess I lost a little bit of self-esteem
That time that you made it with the whole hockey team
You used to think I was nice
Now you tell all your friends that I'm the Antichrist

Oh, why did you disconnect the breaks in my car?
That kind of thing is hard to ignore
Got a funny feeling you don't love me anymore

I knew that we were having problems when
You put those piranhas in my bathtub again
You're still the light of my life
Oh darling, I'm beggin', won't you put down that knife?

You know, I even think it's kinda cute the way
You poison my coffee just a little each day
I still remember the way that you laughed
When you pushed me down that elevator shaft

Oh, if you don't mind me asking, what's this poisonous cobra
Doing in my underwear drawer?
Sometime I get to thinking you don't love me any more

You slammed my face down on the barbecue grill
Now my scars are all healing, but my heart never will
You set my house on fire
You pulled out my chest hairs with an old pair of pliers

Oh, you think that I'm ugly and you say that I'm cheap
You shaved off my eyebrows while I was asleep
You drilled a hole in my head
Then you dumped me in a drainage ditch and left me for dead

Oh, you know this really isn't like you at all
You never acted this way before
Honey, something tells me you don't love me any more, oh no no
Got a funny feeling you don't love me anymore

Dream Theater - Space-Dye Vest

Falling through pages of Martens on angels
Feeling my heart pull west
I saw the future dressed as a stranger
love in a space-dye vest

Love is an act of blood and I'm bleeding
a pool in the shape of a heart
Beauty projection in the reflection
Always the worst way to start

[Sample is Julian Sands from the film "A Room With A View".]
"But he's the sort who can't know
anyone intimately, least of all a
woman. He doesn't know what a woman
is. He wants you for a possession,
something to look at like a painting or an ivory box.
Something to own and to display. He doesn't want you to be real,
or to think or to live. He doesn't love you, but I love you.
I want you to have your own thoughts and ideas and
feelings, even when
I hold you in my arms. It's our last chance... It's our
last chance..."

Now that you're gone I'm trying to take it
Learning to swallow the rage
Found a new girl I think we can make it
as long as she stays on the page

This is not how I want it to end
And I'll never be open again

[Sample from "The Trouble With Evan", from the Canadian series "The Fifth Estate".]
"...I was gonna move out...ummm...get,
get a job, get my own place, ummm,
but... I go into the mall where I
want to work and they tell me, I'm,
I was too young..."

[Sample is Jim Hill from a news commentary about the OJ Simpson freeway chase.]
"Some people, gave advice before,
about facing the facts, about
facing reality. And this is, this
without a doubt, is his biggest
challenge ever. He's going to have to face it.
You're gonna have to try, he's gonna to have to try and,
uh, and, and, and get some help here. I mean no one can
say they know how he feels."

[Sample from the Conan O'Brien show.]
"That, so they say that, in ya know
like, Houston or something, you'd
say it's a hundred and eighty degrees,
but it's a dry heat.
In Houston they say that?
Oh, maybe not. I'm all mixed up.
Dry until they hit the swimming pool."

[Sample from "The Trouble With Evan", from the Canadian series "The Fifth Estate".]
"...I get up with the sun... Listen.
You have your own room to sleep in,
I don't care what you do. I don't
care when. That door gets locked,
that door gets locked at night by nine o'clock.
If you're not in this house by nine o'clock, then you'd
better find some
place to sleep. Because you're not going to be a bum in
this house.
Supper is ready..."

There's no one to take my blame
if they wanted to
There's nothing to keep me sane
and it's all the same to you
There's nowhere to set my aim
so I'm everywhere
Never come near me again
do you really think I need you

I'll never be open again, I could never be open again.
I'll never be open again, I could never be open again.

And I'll smile and I'll learn to pretend
And I'll never be open again
And I'll have no more dreams to defend
And I'll never be open again
Marillion - Lavender

I was walking in the park dreaming of a spark
When I heard the sprinklers whisper
Shimmer in the haze of summer lawns
Then I heard the children singing
They were running through the rainbows
They were singing a song for you
Well it seemed to be a song for you
The one I wanted to write for you, for you

Lavenders blue, dilly dilly, lavenders green
When I am King, dilly dilly, you will be Queen
A penny for your thoughts my dear
A penny for your thoughts my dear
I.O.U. for your love, IOU for your love

Lavenders green, dilly dilly, lavenders blue
When you love me, dilly dilly, I will love you
A penny for your thoughts my dear
A penny for your thoughts my dear
IOU for your love, IOU for your love

For your love

My heartache song doesn't have lyrics. It is "Boadicea" by Enya.

Now I still wonder why did you say goodbye
You let me stand here all alone
The pain inside my heart, it's tearing me apart
Cause now I stand here on my own

But now I cry myself to sleep
Only you are what I need
We can make it if we try
I am nowhere without you
I don't know what I should do
Cause my tears will never dry
And I still wonder why

I hope that you will see how much you mean to me
I don't understand why you have gone
The pain inside my heart, it's tearing me apart
Cause now I stand here on my own

But now I cry myself to sleep
Only you are what I need
We can make it if we try
I am nowhere without you
I don't know what I should do
Cause my tears will never dry
And I still wonder why

It's like the flowers and the bees
Like the mountains and the trees
The love I feel for you baby
Like the desert needs the rain
It will always feel the same
The love I feel for you baby

Blind Guardian - Harvest of Sorrow.
She is gone leaves are falling down
The tear maiden will not return
The seal of oblivion is broken
And a pure love's been turned into sin

At the dawn of our living time
Hope may cover all cries
Truth lurks hidden in the shadows
Dreams might be filled with lies
Soon there will be night
Pain remains inside

Suddenly (oh) it seemed so clear
All the blindness was taken away
She closed her eyes and she called out my name
She was never ever never ever seen again

Harvest of sorrow, your seed is grown
In a frozen world full of cries
When the ray of light shrinks
Shall cold winter nights begin

She is gone and I fall from grace
No healing charm covers my wounds
Fooled's the dawn and so I am
Fooled by life and a bitter doom
To bring you the end of the day

At the dawn of our living time
Hope it soon will pass by
Facing a darkness
I stand (alone)

Harvest of sorrow, your seed is grown
In a frozen world full of cries
When the ray of light shrinks
Shall cold winter nights begin
"Oh no, oh yeah, tell me how can it be so fair
That we dying younger hiding from the police man over there
Just for breathing in the air they wanna leave me in the chair
Electric shocking body rocking beat streeting me to death"

So much more than is good for me

Oh i need and don't want to need

And i'll lie in the sound
What is love but whatever
My heart needs around

Oh my sheet is so thin
So i say i can't sleep because
It's so very cold

But i know what i need
And if you were just near to me
Would you go....

I am falling

Tristania - Angellore
When summer's gone flee my angel
Winterwinds they might lead you far away
Beyond the pale horizon, a greaven silence
Over dreams to my heart yet not remain

[Vibeke] Oh please believe
It's in her eyes
[Vibeke] It is inside
It's in her heart, the same relation from which
I once led astray
[Vibeke] Oh please believe
It's in her eyes
[Vibeke] It is inside
It's in her heart, the same delightful place
I once felt in you

Angellore revered at dusk
For thee I rose, now descend all alone
Rise for me, soothe my heart
So wide a sea, may I overcome

[Spoken] Into the night strays an angel
So lost and tearful all astray

Into the night strays an angel
So lost and tearful all astray
Lo where's the pale horizon
Oh where is dyingness
You reach for me beyond so wide a sea

[Vibeke] Oh please believe
It's in her eyes
[Vibeke] It is inside
It's in her heart, the same desire
I feel burning in me
[Vibeke] Oh please believe
It's in her eyes
[Vibeke] It is inside
It's in her heart, the same desire from
The empty pain within

Rise for me, soothe my heart
So wide a sea, may I overcome

[Vibeke] Deep as the sea, wailing secrecies are burning in me
For a dream I once desired
I bequeth my sorrow and I regret to thee
Cannot cross that wide a sea

Angellore revered at dusk
For thee I rose, now descend all alone
Rise for me, soothe my heart
So wide a sea, may I overcome

Lacuna Coil - To Live is to Hide
While emotions try to come out
Desperately I seek in their path
A way so I cannot be outdone
And to finish this search for the meaning

To hide emotions cause a blow out
Desperately I seek their blast
A way so I cannot be outdone
And to finish this search for the meaning

I'm going to freeze
Is it my imagination?
It's underground

But I can feel it the same

What I need now
What I need is to live to hide
When you smothered my devotion
With your lies

And I feel now
As I did that time
That I'm wondering why
Still I make you cry

While emotions try to come out
Desperately I seek their path
A way so I cannot be outdone
And to finish this search for the meaning

To hide emotions cause to blow out
Desperately I seek their blast
A way so I cannot be outdone
And to finish this search for the meaning

Suffering while I'm depending on seasons
Roots under me are embracing the earth
Music can name the un-nameable and communicate with the unknowable.
-Leonard Bernstein
