Ralph Waldo Emerson

Trust Thyself

Man is his own star; and the soul that can
Render an honest and a perfect man,
Commands all light, all influence, all fate;
Nothing to him falls early or too late.
Our acts our angels are, or good or ill,
Our fatal shadows that walk by us still.

In Your Park

Music :rudolf schenker
Lyrics:klaus meine
In the night there is
A gentle voice of silence
So low and quiet
Shell catch me cos Ive been longing.
I want to walk in your park
Cos Im alone,
I want to walk in your heart
Where are you? I dont know ...
I look around and see
The sunshine in the morning.
(shadows in the night
Like angels by your side in the alley ...)
On my journey I change the time,
Leave everything behind me.
(shadows in the night
Like angels by your side in the alley ...)
I want to walk in your park
Cos Im alone,
I want to walk in your heart
Where are you? I dont know ...
Let me walk, let me walk in your heart!

Walk In The Shadows

What? you say youre through with me
Im not through with you
Weve had what others might call love
You say its over now,
Whats done, whats through?
You cant stay away, you need me
I need you
When the fire starts the pains too much
For your mind
You need attention, whats good is only mine
I can cure the hunger that burns in your heart
Just come to me
Ill take you home
Well walk in the shadows
By day well live in a dream
Well walk in the shadows
You say you dont feel safe alone tonight
Cause you feel the pressure building in your head
Our secrets safe for one more night
But when the morning comes remember
Ill be with you
Well walk in the shadows
By day well live in a dream
Well walk in the shadows
One day youll be with me
If only you believe...

The Comrades

The angels walk with men in the red ruin and rain,
White and gold, as of old, without spot or stain.
Our warriors fought and died, the white lords by their side.
The angels walk with men.

God doth not forget in the battle, the retreat;
The heart of Love's above the dying and the slain.
There's a ladder to the skies and, armed from Paradise,
The angels walk with men.

Foot-soldiers, cavaliers, the flame on their spears,
They sweep fast in haste o'er the bloody plain.
What ill shall betide us with the winged knights beside us?
The angels walk with men.

Golden-mailed, lance in arm, they ride on the storm --
Michael and a poor soldier are comrades twain!
Oh, in the noise of battle, the red roar and the rattle,
The angels walk with men!

When The Angels Fall

So high above the world tonight
The angels watch us sleeping
And underneath a bridge of stars
We dream in safetys keeping
But perhaps the dream
Is dreaming us
Soaring with the seagulls
Perhaps the dream
Is dreaming us
Astride on the backs of eagles
When the angels fall
Shadows on the wall
In the thunders call
Something haunts us all
When the angels fall
When the angels fall
Take your fathers cross
Gently from the wall
A shadow still remaining
See the churches fall
In mighty arcs of sound
And all that theyre containing
Yet all the rugged souls
Looking for their lost homes
Shuffle to the ruins
From the levelled plain
To search among the tombstones
When the angels fall
Shadows on the wall
In the thunders call
Something haunts us all
When the angels fall
When the angels fall
When the angels fall
These are my feet
These are my hands
These are my children
And this is my demand
Bring down the angels
Cast them from my sight
I never want to see
A million suns at midnight
Your hands are empty
The streets are empty
You cant control us
You cant control us anymore
When the angels fall when the angels fall
When the angels fall when the angels fall
When the angels fall when the angels fall

Shadows

The darkness holds many shadows
that tread softly in the night
and every stranger must beware
of those that lurk in shadows
with no good will to explore.
They stalk the innocent
whose hearts are warm and pure
extending what seems a friendly lure.
So stranger as you walk in peace
beware of where you tread
as those who would do you harm
lurk deep in the shadows
and crevices of your mind.
The demons that lay bare
your mortal thread
steal around in the shadows
where you tread.
Beware of the night dear stranger
and the shadows you walk through.
The darkness holds many dangers
as you walk your journey through.

We Could Be So Good Together

We could be so good together
Ya, so good together
We could be so good together
Ya, we could, I know we could
Tell you lies
I tell you wicked lies
Tell you lies
Tell you wicked lies
Tell you bout the world that well invent
Wanton world without lament
Enterprise, expedition
Invitation and invention
Ya, so good together
Ah, so good together
We could be so good together
Ya, we could, know we could
Alright!
Do da do do do do do bup bup de day
We could be so good together
Ya, so good together
We could be so good together
Ya, we could, I know we could
Tell you lies
Tell you wicked lies
Tell you lies
Tell you wicked lies
The time you wait subtracts the joy
Beheads the angels you destroy
Angels fight, angels cry
Angels dance and angels die
Ya, so good together
Ah, but so good together
We could be so good together
Ya, we could, know we could

Two Shadows

Walking on the street,
and my two shadows walk beside me,
I walk while they crawl,
A distance apart, but they reside in me..
My two shadows walk beside me...

I am quiet and my shadows quieter,
One is black and the other lighter,
Difference b/w them can't be seen by eyes,
But if I only knew how to act wise,
'Coz I'm still confused which one to choose,
Is it better to burn or to diffuse,

I think and think and think,
and my shadows take a decision,
It's the end of the road,
and they merge into one,

Seems its better to carry the layers,
than fling the ashes,
It thickens the conscience when life crashes,

Now it's the end of the street,
Beside me.. my shadow still creeps,
I walk, it crawls,
I stand, it falls,
I believe in it and take it the air,
My life breathes.......

Shadows

Walk through the night looking for your kind of smile
?Hoping to meet you I walk my love for miles
Your face, your eyes, I can't find the girl I look for
refrain:
Shadows can conceal you
you can't hide, so please don't try
Your life and my love
But to search just makes me cry
Life was so young and another day is gone
Love seems a lost word
How can my heart be strong
?When that was is again I wait for love to be there
refrain
Then in the shadows I see the face I look for
But then like the night you're gone just as before
A face in a crowd
A shadow once more
refrain
solo
refrain
(spoken)
...shadows...shadows..shadows..shadows...shadows....shadows....shadows....

Walk with Angels

Walk with Angels

I talk to Jesus
I walk with angels
They live through him
I believe
Believe in everlasting life
I believe a man should take a wife
I believe, what I was taught
When I did wrong
I did my best to never get caught
Still I talk to Jesus
He shows me all I need to see
When I can’t go on
I know he’ll carry me
I talk to Jesus
I believe
Believe in everlasting life
I walk with angels
They are part of the my everyday life
And I still believe a man should take a wife
I believe in the Bible stories people tell
The Farmer in the Dell
Fairies
And the wishing well
I talk to Jesus
About life’s angles
Tangles
I Thank the Lord
For all our angels

Shadows And Tall Trees

Back to the cold restless streets at night
I talk to myself about tomorrow night
Walls of white protest
A gravestone in name
Who is it now
It's always the same
Who is it now
Who calls me inside
Are the leaves on the trees
Just living disguise
I walk sweet rain tragicomedy
I'll walk home again
to the street melody
But I know, oh no
But I know, oh no
But I know...
Shadows and tall trees
Shadows and tall trees
Shadows and tall trees
Shadows and tall trees
Life through a window
Discoloured pain
Mrs. Brown's washing is always the same
I walk street rain tragicomedy
I'll walk home again
to the street melody
But I know, oh no
But I know, oh no
But I know...
(Out there)
Do you feel in me...
Anything redeeming
Any worthwhile feeling
Is love like a tightrope
Hanging from the ceiling
But I know, oh no
But I know, oh no
But I know...
Shadows and Tall Trees

Overnight Angels

(ian hunter)
In the heat of the indian summer
Out along the appalachian way
You can hear the sound of the overnight angels
As they pray
Charged by the light of some mariners lantern
Spitting out a cold but triangular spray
Cant you hear the screams of the overnight angels
As they play
Talking to the spirits through a silver curtain
Reaching out beyond the length of the light
You can catch a glimpse of an overnight angel
As he shines
Dancing through the toys of the dead and the living
Laughing at the poets changing their rhymes
Cant you feel the pulse of the overnight angels
Beating time
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels angels angels
Children of the junkies led the revolution
Push yourselves over get yourselves there
Someone throw their arms round the overnight angels
Cause they care
Angels dont need no phony religion
Throw them out along with the ethnic nowheres
They will never speak to the overnight angels
They can only stare
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels angels angels angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels angels angels angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels angels angels angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels
Can you hear us can you hear us
Were talking bout the overnight angels angels angels angels
Angels angels angels angels
Angels angels angels angels
Angels angels angels angels
Overnight angels
Overnight angels
Talking about
The overnight angels

Heaven found a way

Heaven found a way to make thee perfect one
That also came along with a Son


To put thee greatest love in side his heart
And held it strong to never part


To show a Lady were her Souls Heart could find
Thee closest thing of Heaven to bind


Thee strongest love of all
One could ever wish to have the chance to fall


In love complete souls mate of thee creator
Heaven found a way to finely save her


Sent his own garden angels to guide her way
To walk with her until thee day


Heavenly gifts placed in to her soul
To tell the world what first was told


So much faith placed in to ones heart
To heal thee world that falls apart


So with heavens strongest angels and gifts
Teachings and faith bring truth to all myths


Time slips closer to heavens final try
To heal the world that wants to die


Wings will flush and crush shadows sin
Awaken all life from with in


Heaven found a way
I as me in its entirety has the words to say
I walk with thee angels of heaven
And bring to all Thee Final day


To save the souls that heaven gave
And to shadows ending sin
For life to live once again!

I shall not fall i shall Win!

Shadows Pale!

teardropp tattoos by the eyes,
the whisper of souls sacrificed.
step by step, brick by brick,
the final clock, tick by tick.

you and i, kingdoms fall.
unspoken desires, unanswered calls.
standing hard against tyranny,
pages turned, lost history.

and the hammer strikes the bell.
fallen angels walk through hell.
already taken, not for sale...
turning blood, shadows pale!

spirit finds flesh, flesh finds fire.
eyes glazed over, drunk with desire.
gasping for breath as if prayer.
nobody knows, nobody cares.

cant save the world, cant save you.
cant save myself, you know it's true!
what we are at last revealed.
hearts we wasted, love we killed.

and the hammer strikes the bell.
fallen angels walk through hell.
already taken, not for sale...
turning blood, shadows pale!

The Bones Of Angels

Long shadows
Bright light
That falls to the front
From a darkness behind
There is no end
To this mountain top
Inside these stones
Only peace will we find
Inside out
We're all part of the stone
That makes up the mountain
And harbours the bones
The bones of angels
That showed us the way
You can feel them at night
While they sleep through the day
The bones of angels
The bones of angels
Together we will be
Forever we will see
I see you
And I see me
And the bones of angels

Walk On By

Im coming down with a heartache tonight
Only you can make it all right
If I can be with you holding you tight
There wont be no more in my life
Every where I turn
I see your face
Reminding me of a higher place
Every time you smile
Angels cry
Every time you walk on by
Chorus:
Im not the only
Feeling lonely
Every time you walk on by
I try to say something
But end up with nothing
Every time you walk on by
(every time you walk on by)
I keep my cool I pretend Im not here
Every time you come too near
Im such a fool cause, this love is true and
If I dont tell you someone else surely will
Every where I turn
I see your face
Reminding me of a higher place
Every time you smile
Angels cry
Every time you walk on by
Chorus:
Im not the only
Feeling lonely
Every time you walk on by
I try to say something
But end up with nothing
Every time you walk on by
(feeling lonely)
If I ever see you again
This craziness must find an end
I look at you
I promise myself
Chorus:
Im not the only
Feeling lonely
Every time you walk on by
I try to say something
But end up with nothing
Every time you walk on by
Im not the only
Feeling lonely
Every time you walk on by
I try to say something
But end up with nothing
Every time you walk on by
Every time you walk on by

Men And Man

I

Men the Angels eyed;
And here they were wild waves,
And there as marsh descried;
Men the Angels eyed,
And liked the picture best
Where they were greenly dressed
In brotherhood of graves.

II

Man the Angels marked:
He led a host through murk,
On fearful seas embarked;
Man the Angels marked;
To think without a nay,
That he was good as they,
And help him at his work.

III

Man and Angels, ye
A sluggish fen shall drain,
Shall quell a warring sea.
Man and Angels, ye,
Whom stain of strife befouls,
A light to kindle souls
Bear radiant in the stain.

There used to be a lot of acts, which was good, because people don't want to see the same act every night. But, you don't want too many acts, you don't want to over-saturate it.
