Crooner is an American epithet given to male singers of pop standards, mostly from the Great American Songbook, either backed by a full orchestra, a big band or by a piano. Originally it was an ironic term denoting an emphatically sentimental, often emotional singing style made possible by the use of microphones. Some performers, such as Russ Colombo, did not accept the term: in an interview Frank Sinatra said that he did not consider himself or Bing Crosby "crooners".[citation needed]
Crosby's radio show, Kraft Music Hall (1935–1946), was heard by 50 million listeners every Thursday evening. Dutch-German singer and actor Johannes Heesters was described as a crooner by the Forward.
This dominant popular vocal style coincided with the advent of radio broadcasting and electrical recording. Before the advent of the microphone, popular singers like Al Jolson had to project to the rear seats of a theater, as did opera singers, which made for a very loud vocal style. The microphone made possible the more personal style.Al Bowlly, Gene Austin and Art Gillham are often credited as inventors of the crooning style but Rudy Vallée became far more popular, beginning from 1928. He could be heard by anyone with a phonograph or a radio.

David Gordon "Slim Dusty " Kirkpatrick AO, MBE (13 June 1927—19 September 2003) was an Australian country music singer-songwriter and producer, with a career spanning nearly seven decades. He was known to record songs in the legacy of Australian poets Henry Lawson and Banjo Patterson that represented the Australian Bush Lifestyle, and also for his many trucking songs. Dusty was the first Australian to have a No. 1 Hit song with Gordon Parsons (Pub With No Beer). He received an unequalled 37 Golden Guitar and two ARIA awards and was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame and the Country Music Roll of Renown. At the time of his death at the age of 76, Dusty had been working on his 106th album for EMI Records. In 2007 his domestic record sales in Australia surpassed seven million.
David Gordon Kirkpatrick was born on 13 June 1927 in Kempsey, New South Wales, the son of a cattle farmer. Kirkpatrick adopted the stage name "Slim Dusty" in 1938 at eleven years of age. His earliest musical influences included Jimmie Rodgers. In 1945, Dusty wrote When the Rain Tumbles Down in July and released his first record that year at the age of eighteen. In 1946, he signed his first recording contract with Columbia Graphophone for the Regal Zonophone label.
I won't go till the sun lights the night
And the moon is melting my skin
Water turns to fire
And flames are freezing to ice
I won't go till I've tasted dark wine
Made out of deepest sorrow
Absorbing winds of suffering
On fields of blood and tears
Pictures move fast...the end in sight
But I will break...the laws of time
I won't go till I've immersed myself
On the trail of mystery
Searching for the sacred two headed worm
See me become a snake
Wrapped around your neck...
See me become a spike
Pushed deep in your flesh...
Feel me become a tongue
Gliding softly down your spine...
Feel me become the essence
That makes you cry...
But there's one thing
You have to know
When you awake
Don't be surprised
'Cos you won't be alive
Watch me become that moment
That really matters in your life...
Watch me become the relic
That means so much to you...
But there's one thing
You have to know
When you awake
Don't be surprised
'Cos you won't be alive
Hear me become a cry
That means a thousand words in one...
And hear me as I whisper so low
That you won't dare to breathe...
See me become a snake
Wrapped around your neck...
See me become a spike
Pushed deep in your flesh...
See me become the one
Who sees behind your eyes...
And see me become the night
This is the last hit
Your heart will beat
Into this world...
This is the first step
Your soul will take
Up to the sky...
No time to pray 'cos you
Can't stay where words
Like that would count...
Face the moment
That you feared and
Glide outside your brain...
Golden wings
Drawn in blood
What is sin?
And who is God?
This time it's real
And not a game
Now cross the edge of time...
The circle's closed
So enter now
The land of unborn life...
Golden wings
Drawn in blood
What is sin?
And who is God?
You will find out
If your heaven is colored black
And you will find out
If your suffering will find an end
... roses that never bloom
wheels that never spin
bells that never ring
hands too far to reach ...
... why do
i hate you?
... children
fragile minds
beware this world
is about to cut
your hair ...
Glowing heat, horizon swims
Wall-less labyrinth
Grace and ugliness, combined like never before
It's hell on earth, desert law
Where water means gold
Burning breath, deadly games
Two colored world of disgrace
Where water means gold
Mistress of deception
Daughter of death
Realm of the sun
Merciless, invincible
Glowing heat, horizon swims
Wall-less labyrinth
Storm, culmination of her wildness
...as its temple
and its victim
my blood runs
on marble floors
just like some
insane circulation
back into
my coroded
This is the last hit
Your heart will beat
Into this world...
This is the first step
Your soul will take
Up to the sky...
No time to pray 'cos you
Can't stay where words
Like that would count...
Face the moment
That you feared and
Glide outside your brain...
Golden wings
Drawn in blood
What is sin?
And who is God?
This time it's real
And not a game
Now cross the edge of time...
The circle's closed
So enter now
The land of unborn life...
Golden wings
Drawn in blood
What is sin?
And who is God?
You will find out
If your heaven is colored black
And you will find out
Shining metal
Arc of light
Red eyes
Smell of fear
Deep cut
Red stream
On white skin
In slowmotion
Stop time
Close your lips
Keep the word
Lay down and sleep
With bleeding heart
I'll take you away
Save you from
The claws of time
Die by my hand, die by my hand
Now you are
A crystal rose
Frozen for
Eternity
Down on my knees
Caress your body
Inside my head
In slowmotion
Stop time
Close your lips
Keep the word
Lay down and sleep
With bleeding heart
I'll take you away
Save you from
The claws of time
Die by my hand, die by my hand
My cry echoes on a naked wall
Cold like a crystal
Numbered hours creeping
Insanity strangles reality...
Weakened, crushed, formed
New dimensions arise
My mind becomes a fortress
Inpregnable, shut
The walls between us make the public safe...
Read my scars...see why I'm like that
Read my scars...and don't ask me why
Whisper turns into a scream
Light would burn my skin
My legs, useless instruments
My eyes, almost blind
See the sunny world outside
Ignorant of the fact
Faking shock, forgetting fast
Freedom is a gift...
My cry echoes on a naked wall
Cold like a crystal
Numbered hours creeping
Insanity strangles reality...
The walls between us make the public safe...
Read my scars...see why I'm like that
Read my scars...and don't ask me why
The walls between us make the public safe...
Read my scars...see why I'm like that
They tore me down
They threw me out
They shot my mouth
They enslaved my mind
They blocked my way
Holding me back with
Their stupid game...
Hand on trigger
Phantom face
Don't trust no one
Always on the run
Eyes all over
Never safe
Virus like
Merciless
I left the row
Erased myself
Designed my plan
Now I revolt
I just say no
I do reject
And don't let it go...
I serve the revolution
In a different way
My thoughts are radical
And I don't hesitate to slay
My way is fast
I hit and run
Won't leave no trace
I'm a sniper
The signs I set
Are painted
With wounded knees
And the musty scent
Of incense in her hair
Captured by the barbed hook
Of eternal devotion
Stigma bleeds
In the book that leads
To her final end
Civitas Dei
She lives on your planet
But not in your world
She speaks the same language
But you can't understand
The weight of chastity
Makes her eyes cast down
And the skin of humility
Is white as snow
Stigma bleeds
In the book that leads
To her final end
Civitas Dei
She lives on your planet
But not in your world
She speaks the same language
But you can't understand
Paralised she's followin'
The ancient message
It's more much more
A new day's born
After a long hard ride
I'm on my way
To a place called home
But now I'm here
Lost between machines
Watching grey, mute faces
Go on and destroy their lives
Why do you do this...stop it now
'Cos in fact you're innocent...Like a new born child
Identity's lost...no need for names
Identity's lost...no need for ideas
Identity's lost...no need for resistance
Identity's lost...no need to be human
Why do you do this...stop it now
'Cos in fact you're innocent...Like a new born child
Why do you do this...stop it now
They never see nothing but debris
They never hear news without a fear
They never understand the game, the sense, the plan
They never feel injuries that heal
Proud to die for faith
Fanatic, Agitators, Deceive
New breed of man
Grew up in war
New breen of man
Like never before
They never see religions agree
Wake up step out of your dream come out of the mire
Realize what they do think about what you do
Is this what I live for or a dream I die for
Where is the sense what's the price you pay
Did you see their faces beaten to obey
Did you see the colours sulphur yellow, concrete gray
Did you see the eyes listless and indifferent
Oppression no resistance bodies without a spine
Sudden fall
Sudden fall
Sometimes they talk behind your back
Is he your friend who do you trust
How far can we go who sets all the limits
Who gives us rights we've never wanted?
Sudden fall
Sudden fall
Day by day your hands are used
To build a world called decadence
So shut your eyes close your ears
So you've had enough of all that waste around you
Now you want to travel along another path
If you wish to see a totally different view
Come into my deadly arms feel the green mist cover you
We'll drift thru the universe no more responsibility
High above the clouds far from reality
Skeleton on your shoulder
I'm here to please
Skeleton on your shoulder
I'll bring you to your knees
Skeleton on your shoulder
I'll show you your greed
Skeleton on your shoulder
I'll bring you to your knees
I taste as sweet as honey but I'm dangerous like a snake
You will spend all you have to stay with Her Majesty
Remember when it's late much too late to care
When the curtain falls my dark side's waiting there
Skeleton on your shoulder
I'll bring you to your knees
Skeleton on your shoulder
I saw his face, on every channel
His slogans in all the papers
I heard people, repeat his words
I saw them shouting, his flag in their hands
I saw him making promises
I heard him talk about life
But I saw his fingers too
They were crossed behind his back
Darling...of the TV screen
Manipulator...of the purse strings
Master...of the spoken words
Jackal...with connections
Worshipped...by the masses
Leader...with ulterior motives
[All talk and no do]
[Is neither a good offense or defense]
[Get with it boys and girls]
[Your house needs to be put in order too]
His slate, clean as snow
Covers over his dark past
To be in league with workers
Pictures he loved to see
But I read in his eyes
Promotion...reality
He played his part to the end
Shot...leaving a shambles
I have to forget, push things from my head
I've got to leave that past of blood 'nd tears
My brain...injected, information...infected
I'm absorbed lost in my storm
I've got to stop and clear my conscience
I've got to look for another direction
My arms...out stretched, my hands...touch nothing
I'm absorbed by the fog of my lies
You're out there...somewhere
Outside getting on with life
I'm in here...nowhere
Inside looking for a key
So what can I do to find myself
Which way is right, which way is left
Direction undiscovered, my body exhausted
...I will smile
while you
still cry
I'll be in the
light
while you still
...children
fragile minds
beware this world
is about to cut
I don't know what's going on
I don't know what's happend to you
Yesterday we were one
Now, I don't even know your name
Standing in front of a wall
Hitting it with my fists
But you can't hear
'Cos we're so far apart
I'd like to understand
What's going on deep in your mind
Why you've destroyed the spell
And how you can be so cool 'bout that
I see you smile it's like a punch in my face
Can't you feel my bleeding heart
Is that you who's standing next to me
...this will be
my last call,
I am with
a different
Endless run, endless pain
Thousands of words, beating my brain
Thousands of lips, try to explain
But never found the answer
Pushed around, edge to edge
Never felt safe, never felt home
Different system, another parole
Decision demanded, what do i do
Take that stone and replace my body
Take that stone and replace my soul
Take that stone and replace my heart
Take that stone and replace it all
I'm lost, born on the dark side
My life, a tunnel of pain
Take that stone and replace my body
Take that stone and replace my soul
Burned out, head down
Still on search, cry'n out
Take me away, far away
...roses that never bloom
wheels that never spin
bells that never ring
Lonely it spreads its wings
Eager to wake my fire
Slowly circling over me
Burning with deep desire
I don't know why it hurts
What the hell is it all about
When I lie awake at night
I feel it all 'round me
Winding like the snake of old
It's foul breath all about me
I don't know why it hurts
What the hell is it all about
It fills my head with words
But when I want to speak
I don't know what to say
I feel like shattered glass
Is cutting at my very heart
I long for it with every nerve
It's tearing me apart
I don't know why it is
I'm coming out of the void
Along a spiral trace
Escorted by a thousand souls
Remembered but still unknown...
I don't need wings
To reach the sky
And I don't need hands
To hold you tight...
My youth's my defense
And pureness my weapon
I'm Lilith's son
I've got the moon in my veins...
Son of Lilith
Son of Lilith
You don't have to listen
To understand
And you won't find words
Oh how I lived the game
When we were dancin' on bridges
High above rivers of tears and
The lightness of innocence gave us wings
We were sleepin' covered
By darkness' black velvet
So far from coldness
So far from light...
Where is the place
I used to hide
Where are the hearts
Once given to me
And I can feel it now
The white cold hand
For the first time I'm getting hurt
By the thorns of the roses in my hand
Time is returning to its realm
And it's slowly melting away
Like deep red wax
Leaving pools of blood...
Where is the place
I used to hide
Where are the hearts
Once given to me
And sweet voices...turn into sirens...
Been a long time since I heard a human voice
Sitting at my controls watching those flashing lights
Few breaths left in my oxygen supply
Communication dead earth now just a spot
Now I know...I'm on my way
Now I know...Eternity calls me
Red light alarm the air is going bad
I lie back untie my belts everything is blurred
No air left in my oxygen supply
Soon I'll sleep away earth is just a memory
Now I know...I'm on my way
Now I know...Eternity calls me
Now I know...I'm on my way
Now I know...Eternity calls me
In many years from now
Someone will find my ship
Someone will see my body in it
Falling down, entering nowhere
Between our world and realm of death
I'm a drifter through unknown lands
Search for an exit out of this place
The [Incomprehensible] life so fragile it was heard as
Squeezed between [Incomprehensible] and machines
[Incomprehensible] and plastic tubes
Want to talk but I can't
Want to move but I'm nailed to the ground
[Incomprehensible]
Child of the moon, coma of light
See myself from above
Await for a final decision
Child of the moon, coma of light
See myself from above
Await for a final decision
Falling down, entering nowhere
Between our world and the realm of death
I'm a drifter through unknown lands
Search for an exit out of this place
So I lay here, going insane
What was in the past?
No one knows how to get me out
They just stand around my bed
Fill me up with all kinds of drugs
But I know there is a way
Switch off the machine to let me go
Let me sleep this time for real
Child of the moon, coma of light
See myself from above
In a world
Where we think
That we've seen
Everything
In a world
Where we think
That we rise above
All things
In a time
That is so fast
You have to run
So you won't get lost
In a time
That is so loud
You have to scream
To get recognised...
In a land
Where you must fight
For a little Fragement
Of human right
In a system
That uses war
To spread its spirit
Around the globe
A religion
That uses hate
To plug its message
Into your brain
A revolution
That turns back time
Forgets what we have
Learned to be...
I'd like to say
I have to say
You...don't know nothin'
You...don't know nothin' about
You...don't know nothin'
You...don't know nothin' at all
A public
Where shoes do shine
And money beats
Respect for life
In a world
That is cleaned
Of all secrets
That nature kept
A public
Where death's reduced
To be excitement
In late night news
In a time
Where children learn
To ignore the world
Oh how I lived the game
When we were dancin' on bridges
High above rivers of tears and
The lightness of innocence gave us wings
We were sleepin' covered
By darkness' black velvet
So far from coldness
So far from light
Where is the place
I used to hide
Where are the hearts
Once given to me
And I can feel it now
The white cold hand
For the first time I'm getting hurt
By the thorns of the roses in my hand
Time is returning to its realm
And it's slowly melting away
Like deep red wax
Leaving pools of blood
Where is the place
I used to hide
Where are the hearts
Once given to me
And sweet voices...
Turn into sirens
Foretelling...
The presence of death!
Oh how I lived the game
When we were dancin' on bridges
High above rivers of tears and
The lightness of innocence gave us wings
We were sleepin' covered
By darkness' black velvet
So far from coldness
So far from light
Where is the place
I used to hide
Where are the hearts
Once given to me
And sweet voices...
Turn into sirens

Answer the telephone
I know you are at home
You are my fear
Can’t wait to hear you
Cast a fairy glance
Take me in your arms
I’m tired to death
And short of breath
[Chorus:]
You’re a big mistake
I don’t need to come across
You‘re a restless flood
Everything falls down
I see no sun
Bring me slight relief
Give me a chance to live
Go down the drain
Take my escape
Destined to play your game
Ready to crack my brains
I’m sick at heart
I fall apart
[Chorus:]
You’re a big mistake
I don’t need to come across
You‘re a restless flood
Everything falls down
I see no sun
I see no sun
I see no light
[Chorus:]
You’re a big mistake
I just want to make away
You‘re a restless flood
Why do I come back
Feel the night
Before you open your eyes
Before you raise your head
Before the magic is gone
Find your soul
You want to find your soul
In your dreams
You hope to fix your life
[Chorus:]
A few miles from paradise
Farewell to heart sores
Take steps to realize
That you are almost there
Up and down
But every time it gets worse
You’re gonna hit the ground
Internal splendor is lost
Take this pain
You have to take this pain
Day by day
You’ll never fix your life
[Chorus:]
A few miles from paradise
Farewell to heart sores
Take steps to realize
That you are almost there
The last forlorn attempt
You have been alone
You’ve paid your body rent
Angels guide you home
A lifelong movie starring you
Still days of sadness sharing truth
[Chorus:]
The last forlorn attempt
You have been alone
You’ve paid your bloody rent
Hey you, someone said you were lost out there
In the grip, trying to strangle us all down here
In the meantime, are you ever gonna set us free
Hey you, will we ever get out of here?
Are you ever gonna surrender
Do you even care?
Wasn't talking about sweet submission
It wasn't even there
All in the suit that you wear
When you're looking for something
It's in the suit that you wear
When you're hiding from someone
All in the suit that you wear, when you wear it
Hey you, you keep a-walking the razor
On the edge, you cut your feet when you stand in there
In the meantime, there's always someone to set you free
Hey You, will you ever get out of there
Are you ever gonna surrender
Do you even care?
Wasn't talking about sweet submission
It wasn't even there
All in the suit that you wear
When you're looking for something
It's in the suit that you wear
When you're hiding from someone
All in the suit that you wear, when you wear it
All in the suit that you wear
(All in the suit that you wear)
All in the suit that you wear
(All in the suit that you wear)
In the suit that you wear
(All in the suit that you wear)
In the suit that you wear
(All in the suit that you wear)
All in the suit that you wear
When you're looking for something
It's in the suit that you wear
when you're hiding from someone
All in the suit that you wear, when you wear it
All in the suit that you wear, when you wear it
All in the suit that you wear, when you wear it
Freedom is not happiness
You never know where you can go
You’re left to be alone
Busted, there’s no harmony
I have no faith, I have no principles
I’ve lost control, I’ve lost my memory
Somewhere in the past
Somewhere in the pit of life
Memory erased
‘Cause I’m rejected
Misery and pain
I’m not accepted
I tried to be myself
And lost control
I hoped to win the world
Without fortune
[Chorus:]
Life was full of passion
Time shows no compassion
Why do I feel rejected and wasted?
Headaches every day
I go insane, I have no tolerance
I rise and fall and lose my confidence
It’s hard to realize
I never had my own world
Never said a word
I can’t remember
Never bet against
I just surrendered
Never spoke to friends
I’ve never had one
Never showed concern
Just kept pretending
[Chorus:]
Life was full of passion
Time shows no compassion
Why do I feel rejected and wasted?
Wake me up
Warm my heart
Make me live
Make me breathe
Without fear there’s no strength
Nothing happens
Without fear I am not myself
In the darkness
Is there no forgiveness
I surrender
[Chorus:]
Life was full of passion
Time shows no compassion
Why do I feel rejected?
The golden age of democracy
Carries out atrocities
Common virtues that they choose to preach
Destinations that you fail to reach
[Chorus:]
Bad faith
Strained silence
Fast lane
Will you stay away?
Golden years brought by hurricane
Purple clouds pull you down again
Find the world as never seen before
Got to make the words you can ignore
[Chorus:]
Bad faith
Strained silence
Fast lane
Will you stay away?
Wrong place
Veil of fire
Deep cuts
Keep your mouths shut
Get the message
Get excited
Get the message
Get excited
[Chorus:]
Bad faith
Strained silence
Fast lane
Will you stay away?
Wrong place
Veil of fire
Deep cuts
Heavy rain outside
I am lost in desperation
Thunder cracks in the sky
Cruel trials and tribulations
Obscure nights
Uneasy sense of demise
Obscure nights
Anxiety ruins my life
[Chorus:]
Alien landscapes on the wall
Brain fever
I will never return
I’ll go into the deep
Painful seizures occur
My last vacation is almost over
Obscure nights
Uneasy sense of demise
Obscure nights
Anxiety ruins my life
[Chorus:]
Alien landscapes on the wall
Brain fever
Beams of moonlight on the floor
A silver river
Tears forever cloaked in the pouring rain
My brain is shocked
[Chorus:]
Alien landscapes on the wall
Brain fever
Beams of moonlight on the floor
A silver river
Take a moment of reflection
Take a moment for yourself
Wake up
Wake up to sunlight
Welcome to the real world
[Chorus:]
Midday show
Years of life lost
Void inside your soul
You have turned it off
Dirty words and filthy phrases
Broken promises of wealth
Sadness
Sadness and madness
In the garden of delights
[Chorus:]
You’ve missed the midday show
Years of life lost
Void inside your soul
You have turned it off
Latest stories
Dreams and hopes
Screams and nightmares
You’ve turned them off
Wakin’ up in the mornin’ gotta thank God
Cuz my Televisor channel shows a hot bod
Hot chicks and Glamur talkin’ "Dom 2"
Bullshit like the remnants of a cattle prod
I know it’s bad I know I shouldn’t sit and watch
But I’m soakin’ in a tidal wave of Fendi and Versace
Livin’ on the boulevard of Slomanyie Mechty
There’s so many missed dreams, smother them in tit'ki
Treat her right, get a sitter for the night
Gulyat’ like it’s the last night of your life
Or get out on the streets, meet somebody random
Take 'em by the hand and make 'em understand, son
And like my mama said it take a lotta frittatas
And a bottle of water to wash down an enchillada
But if you gotta Regatta of singin’ heads from Estrada
Them boys is gonna beat you like a fuckin’ Pinata
[Chorus:]
You’ve missed the bullshit show
Years of life lost
Void inside your soul
(Midday showdawn)
You have turned it off
Latest stories
Dreams and hopes
Screams and nightmares
Heavy rain outside
I am lost in desperation
Thunder cracks in the sky
Cruel trials and tribulations
Obscure nights
Uneasy sense of demise
Obscure nights
Anxiety ruins my life
[Chorus: ]
Alien landscapes on the wall
Brain fever
I will never return
I’ll go into the deep
Painful seizures occur
My last vacation is almost over
Obscure nights
Uneasy sense of demise
Obscure nights

[Chorus:]
Alien landscapes on the wall
Brain fever
Beams of moonlight on the floor
A silver river
Problems without answers
I cannot sleep
Troubles and concerns
Follow me
Grief and hatred
Love and loss
Lie behind my ruined hopes
On the streets of Restless City
Of my deep regrets
[Chorus:]
Don’t shape my destiny
Spiders in the bath
The bitter taste of misery
Voices from the past
Medications do not work
I hate those pills
An utter failure to connect
All my dreams are silly movies and I’m a hero
I am somewhere else
[Chorus:]
Don’t shape my destiny
Spiders in the bath
The bitter taste of misery
Voices from the past
[Chorus:]
Don’t shape my destiny
Spiders in the bath
The bitter taste of misery
Voices from the past
The taste of misery
Phantoms in the brain
Superstitious ignorance
Driving along a deserted road
The wind cools my head
Driving alone
Yes, I am driving alone
Yes, I am driving alone again
This road will come to an end
Driving along this deserted road
Driving along this deserted road
Whenever a town appears
I am going to make the last stop
[Chorus:]
I am staying on the highway
I am waiting
I am alone with my despair
I am not scared
This is my home
Living alone
Yes, I’m living in solitude
Yes, I am living alone again
The road has reached its end
Driving alone for miles on end
I travelled around this barren land
Maybe it’s only a vision
Maybe I’ll see again
[Chorus:]
I am staying on the highway
I am waiting
I am alone with my despair
I am not scared
This is my home
In the midst of deadspace mist
I refused a poisoned kiss
In the midst of deadspace mist
I am staying
Dirty lights blur before my eyes
Scary sounds of the night
Dirty lights blur before my eyes
The world is trembling
I have no story to tell
I’ll never turn back with my despair
[Chorus:]
I am not staying on the highway
I am not waiting
I am alone with my despair
I am scared
This is my home
Summer heat
Aggressive sun
Withered trees
Reduced air
Swollen eyes
Vibrating pulse
The yellow haze lingers on
[Chorus:]
Shaking the sands of silence
Watching the fields of fire
Opening arms for a final embrace
Taking a trip into space
Aching feet
Colossal wounds
Burning lips
Compressed ribs
Twisted nerves
Distorted light
Waking dreams won’t go away
[Chorus:]
Shaking the sands of silence
Dipping below horizons
Saying farewell to sorrow and pain
Taking a stroll down the memory lane
The sands of silence
I'm saying farewell
I've lost myself
Down the memory lane
[Chorus:]
Shaking the sands of silence
Watching the fields of fire
Opening arms for a final embrace
The smell of rapture in the air
Overcast with burning clouds
Blades of fury and despair
Broken bones and broken hearts
You’ve turned the world against me
You’ve turned the world upside down
I’ve no reason to survive
[Chorus:]
Between the worlds of scattered minds
Blood on the face
I am a prisoner of fate
A lonely island in the sea
The violent power of my hate
Turns me on
Glows deep within me
You’ve turned the world against me
You’ve turned the world upside down
I’ve no reason to survive
[Chorus:]
Between the worlds of scattered minds
Blood on the face
I’ve left my heart behind
I won’t survive
[Chorus:]
Between the worlds of scattered minds
Blood on the face
I’ve left my heart behind
