A symbol is something that represents an idea, a process, or a physical entity. The purpose of a symbol is to communicate meaning. For example, a red octagon may be a symbol for "STOP". On a map, a picture of a tent might represent a campsite. Numerals are symbols for numbers. Personal names are symbols representing individuals. A red rose symbolizes love and compassion.
In cartography, an organized collection of symbols forms a legend, or key.
∑
The word derives from the Greek symbolon meaning token or watchword. It is an amalgam of syn- "together" + bole "a throwing, a casting, the stroke of a missile, bolt, beam." The sense evolution in Greek is from "throwing things together" to "contrasting" to "comparing" to "token used in comparisons to determine if something is genuine." Hence, "outward sign" of something. The meaning "something which stands for something else" was first recorded 1590, in Edmund Spenser's Faerie Queene.
I've got anticipation,
You see the complication,
The heat is rising from the centre coil,
Someone's talking,
Someone's nodding,
And I'm waiting for my water to boil
Out in the streetlight,
I see the dogs fight,
I feel the breeze come through the screen,
Uneasy feeling,
My mind is reeling,
How come your symbols of freedom only restrict?
How come your symbols of pride to me ain't worth nothing?
How come your symbols of freedom only restrict?
How come your symbols of pride to me ain't worth nothing?
How come your symbols of freedom only restrict?
How come your symbols of pride to me ain't worth nothing?
How come your symbols of freedom only restrict?
How come your symbols of pride to me ain't worth nothing?
What better way to oppress us than to make us safe
To make us node in approval to the system we created
Our freedom, our bill of right, just assurance to make us abide
To make us serve their purposes and to serve our time
But I will destroy a system that's build on greed
I will destroy tradition that makes us bleed
I will shut down the power of all those who have lied to me
I will defy their image of what they want me to be
But I will destroy a system that's build on greed
I will destroy tradition that makes us bleed
I will shut down the power of all those who have lied to me
I will defy their image of what they expect me to be
How come your symbols of freedom only restrict?
How come your symbols of pride to me ain't worth nothing?
How come your symbols of freedom only restrict?
So many times you tried to let me know
That for so long I'm out of your shore
So this time I'm gonna let you go
'Cause honey, I don't want you more
I met a girl who really turns me on
She's so hot
Just one more look I'm waiting for
She teases me right on the spot
Hot lips, long legs
She's got everything you don't
So smart, so pretty
She's got everything I want
It's really boring being with you
And that's the reason I'm getting out
You turned my life a real mess
Oh shit! I'm getting crazy with you!
I met a girl and now I just think of her
I must confess I felt in love
She's just so perfect, I can't believe!
A greek godness walking on the streets
Days always begin
With the breath
In the circle of form
Everything returns to preset
And since the first day
When I planted the dream's grain
I saw the birth of sea of hope
To meet the shore
Look around!
What can you see?
Now look beyond!
To find your dreams
The sun dance with the trees
Their music is the wind
We're drifting in the sea of madness
Just let it be
Pass through the gate
The gate of the reason
Into a dream
The traveller
[Demo Version]
We are living the age of the stars
We are trying to find our salvation
We are going to live on Mars
We are leaving the light to dark!
No feelings
No scruples
We've gotta change our minds
Remember the profecy:
"Black Sun, Blood Rain, Fire Sky"
Please stop the wars
Peace on and on
Please stop the wars
We have no one reason to be proud of
The future is bad
Science studies other kinds of life
And we forget ourselves
It's time to wake up
Time for union
Time to break the walls
Why so many questions and no answers?
Why so many tears?
All the signs are in front of our eyes
But we can't see it there
[Demo Version]
In this junk room
The Golden Statue shines
In the middle of the night
In this lonely room
Forgotten Gods woke up
They wanna their revenge
Sons of Lord
Do you know what it means?
The faith is a gift and a dream
And just you can know it
But we always could come back to Lord
And He will set us free from the curse
The Gods curse will come
And the end is near
There's no way out
In this hopefull room
I beg peace to them
I don't wanna die
Lonely nights again
Suddenly your face has disappeared
In front my eyes
The light that cheers my soul
Fill in the emptiness of my heart
My pride stays alive
I don't believe in love no more
I can't release my emotions
So now it's time to open all the doors
Across the fear
I feel that I can win
I wanna live
I wanna fly
To recover all my dreams
High like an eagle
Eagles flying to the sky
So long
I need to find again my hope
Madness, desire, blood
Sadness, anger
Dreams about happiness, cry and pain
I'm waiting for a reaction from somebody
All people are screaming, now I can't hear you voice
All people are feeling, they don't have many choice
All people are dreaming, about a better world
So many ways to drop him down
Conviction made aware
This pain is hard and burst my heart
Infecting all our hope
Deceptions
Illusions
This I will always have
Sometimes I want to die
Can you remember about the promise you've made me
I'm trying to find out, a clear way
Help me to get out of this darkness I'm scared
I swear that I don't wanna do it for bad
Help me, save me, I can't cry anymore
Save my soul
Open my eyes and tell me what I must do
Guide me to away, I could survive
All what I feeling in my heart is sadness and pain
Everything in my life is so stange
Help me, save me, I can't cry anymore
To set me free, I'm sorry, I can't open this doo
Trying to fly with my mind and soul
To the sky, save my soul
One more time, I can't support this lies
In my life, save my soul
Happiness is something
People hardly achieve
In this perfect Babel 's Tower
All this rottenness makes me sick
You are living in ambition
And you don't have regret
It just stinks and don't you notice?
All this greed is in your veins!
But all could change
Start with you!
You could really change
With this we can go on!
Can you feel this madness?
The power is blinding and killing!
Can you feel this sadness?
So you will pay for never more!
Happiness is in your mind
And you must believe
In this perfect union of power
All the hope must still remain
We live in this same fucking place
And you musn't forget
Our miracles are our magic
And with them we'll reach our aim
Can you feel this madness?
The power is blinding and killing!
Can you fell this sadness?
So you will pay for never more!
Can you feel this happiness?
If you can give you can earn it!
Can you feel this success?
It's the name of dictated game!
Arise destroyer!
It's the call to the end
By the force and the religion
Has born the evil again
But through the stars
The dream remain's
You don't fade away
Over here althrough these wars
We must be strong and keep fighting on
Please don't run away
We've got a lot work to do
To keep us feeling alive
Would it be a dream come true?
The vew millennium will come
And it must not be doomed
And the will of ahnging must be
Inside of you
Look at the sky and tell me what you see ?
Warplanes flying to kill the enemy
In the name of their fatherland
People are dying everywhere
All the difference we can't forget
Allienation we can't allow
If we try to save the world
And change towards a new curse
(What's the meaning of the signs)
There's no time we've change our minds
Turn life into a dream
In the streets the danger is near
Furious people kill themselves for fear
The wickedness will rule the man
Life became a hell 'cause of the greed
(I can't believe, why do they it?)
I think they will never change
Just war, just pain
Look out
Afraid, so many lies
No doubt
The flames in their eyes
Reveal the caos
The order is unreal
How could I try to forget you
If I can't stop loving you...
I've been waiting for so long darling
And I coudn't leave you now
Our lives are so together
And for yo we are just friends...
I can tell you my devotion
'Cause I'm begging for your love
My life is all yours,
My love is all yours,
My life's all yours,
The love's all yours,
That I just can't do it now...
Baby you must be mine tonight
I can't wait you anymore
'Cause my heart is crying hard for you
We must make love all the night
In my life, I just loved one time
And I'm sure it must be you
And now, I will invite you to...
Make love through the night...
I hope to live more to take care of you
I can wonder why to me is not enough
I was living without reason, when I saw you
You changed my mind and soul,
You changed all my life
I have no choice
I must close my eyes
To give all my love
Don't be afraid
It's always the same
I lost my mind
And when the night falls I try to keep the faith
Someday I will know what you really mean
I need to find someway I gotta have you
I dream all the time
I wanna make you happy
Always by my side
Always together
It's a hard felling (that) I can't understand
Now doesn't matter, I'm ready to move on
It's a hard feeling (that) I can't understand
It's unfair, but together we can win
Look at the sky and tell me what you see ?
Warplanes flying to kill the enemy
In the name of their fatherland

All the difference we can't forget
Allienation we can't allow

Look out

No doubt
The flames in their eyes
Reveal the caos
The order is unreal
Now I have a lot of time
To remember all I saw
Of reality that will never be back
Fine, my hands did all my wishes
I've done all I could for pride
But I didn't think, where it would take me on
Time, I feel there's no time
Great soul is in the other side
The only one i didn't try to save
Truth and Guiltlessness don't die
Somewhere they will survive
So their meaning will shine making sense again
Cry! My World has disappeared
I'll never see the sky
And my heart it was so hard it was so hard
Like a stone
But, I still feel hope inside
The illusion on my mind
And now I'm thinking of the meaning again
Light! The flash lights in my heart
Great feelings deep inside
In my mind I see the World
Like a crowd
Life! The nature will never die
I can see another day
In my heart I feel the Earth
Like a soul
Days always begin
With the breath
In the circle of form
Everything returns to preset
And since the first day
When I planted the dream's grain
I saw the birth of sea of hope
To meet the shore
Look around!
What can you see?
Now look beyond!
To find your dreams
The sun dance with the trees
Their music is the wind
We're drifting in the sea of madness
Just let it be
Pass through the gate
The gate of the reason
Into a dream
The traveller
Imagine the future
I don't like what I see there
From eastward to westward
Destruction desolated us all
Just hating and raging
Feel up there desperate minds
Not taking, just giving
Would it be the best way
Not keeping, just sharing
Maybe just I'm a dreamer...
Devastating everywhere
The judgement day came through
But on contrary of what we thought
The evil where left behind
All yours tears keep falling down
But no one really seems to care
All the sinners paid by staying alive
But now the blessed rest in paradise
I tried to forgive the things you've done
Maybe you don't believe but I tried so hard
I know these days are gone, but they don't let me go
I just can't believe in the shits we've done
In the name of the Lord, somebody would say
But they've never excuse their blamed hearts
They never mind about life they never mind about death
You know life always seems just like steps
Sometimes I wonder about the distant future
All I can see's just darkness and pain
The sky is the limit, the limit of what
This fucking World's near of it's end
In the name of the Lord, somebody would say
But they'd never excuse their blamed hearts
Never mind, never mind it will never happen again
I will kill someone if they try again
I will never change my mind again
The money and the power, the couple of death
Are always letting people down to ruin
No matter we try, no matter we try
They do come back over and over again
I cannot believe. I can't understand
People are trying to destroy our World
I know they can do. I know they will do
They are planning to live on the Moon
But we could save our World
We don't have to be like Mars
We owe this to our children
They have an entire life to pass through
Do not destroy
Do not pollute
It must not have been right
So forever, goodnight
[Demo Version]
Come with me into the mirror's place
Look yourself, see your face
Get out of here and fly high in your mind
Where are you, search and find
Only you can make your way
Only you can try again
Your heart and your soul
Together will protect you, my friend
Turn of the lights and see your self inside
Who are you?
Is any pride?
Dreams and reality in the same frame
Trust in you!
Scream your name!
The days will come to make your hope return
The days will come to make your heart feel
What's more trust
Believe yourself forever
Or you'll have begin again
[Demo Version]
Can you think about it?
Children dying everyday
They can't get their away (Africa)
How can we close our eyes?
Leave out their dreams and broken hearts
They don't have a chance living in misery
Sometimes I turn the TV on
And I feel like screaming
Many people just like me
Wait the time to fade away
Can you think about it?
A child cries for one day more
Cries with all her faith (dream on)
They don't deserve it
And die without a hope to survive
We have to believe and save Africa
People in the hole world that nothing can about it
Try to help and bring their hope again
Man of power turn thir back and kill in the silence
People must forget them and go on
