Die gleiche Frage habe ich heute auch schon gestellt. ;-)
Ich beschränke mich mal nur auf die Texte einer Band.
- "Living in their pools, they soon forget about the sea"
- "The measure of a life is a measure of love and respect, So hard to earn, so easily burned"
- "One likes to believe in the freedom of music, But glittering prizes and endless compromises, Shatter the illusion of integrity"
- "If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice"
- "He knows changes aren't permanent, But change is"
- "I can't pretend a stranger is a long awaited friend."
- "Sometimes our big splashes, Are just ripples in the pool "
- "You can surrender without a prayer, But never really pray without surrender, You can fight without ever winning, But never win without a fight"
- "If we burn our wings, Flying too close to the sun, If the moment of glory, Is over before it's begun, If the dream is won, Though everything is lost, We will pay the price, But we will not count the cost"
- "Life is just a candle, and a dream must give it flame."
- "They shoot without shame, In the name of a piece of dirt, For a change of accent, Or the color of your shirt, Better the pride that resides, In a citizen of the world, Than the pride that divides, When a colorful rag is unfurled"
- "And the trees are all kept equal, By hatchet, axe, and saw"
- "You can be the captain, And I will draw the chart, Sailing into destiny, Closer to the heart"
- "I believe in what I see, I believe in what I hear, I believe that what I'm feeling changes how the world appears"
- "Some fought themselves, some fought each other, Most just followed one another, Lost and aimless like their brothers, For their hearts were so unclear, And the truth could not appear, Their spirits were divided into blinded Hemispheres"
Zusätzlich möchte ich noch die Zeilen "And what you say about his company, Is what you say about society" erwähnen, die man jedoch im Kontext des ganzen Songs sehen muss, da sie so nicht viel Sinn ergeben.
