When I was listening to one of my all time favourite songs from a very old selection, I thought of checking it's lyrics, the song is "Heaven & Hell" by Black Sabath, a '70s heavy metal band

HEAVEN & HELL

Sing me a song, youre a singer
Do me a wrong, youre a bringer of evil
The devil is never a maker
The less that you give, youre a taker
So its on and on and on, its heaven and hell, oh well

The lover of lifes not a sinner
The ending is just a beginner
The closer you get to the meaning
The sooner youll know that youre dreaming
So its on and on and on, oh its on and on and on
It goes on and on and on, heaven and hell
I can tell, fool, fool!

Well if it seems to be real, its illusion
For every moment of truth, theres confusion in life
Love can be seen as the answer, but nobody bleeds for the dancer
And its on and on, on and on and on....

They say that lifes a carousel
Spinning fast, youve got to ride it well
The world is full of kings and queens
Who blind your eyes and steal your dreams
Its heaven and hell, oh well
And theyll tell you black is really white
The moon is just the sun at night
And when you walk in golden halls
You get to keep the gold that falls
Its heaven and hell, oh no!
Fool, fool!
Youve got to bleed for the dancer!
Fool, fool!
Look for the answer!
Fool, fool, fool!


I dunno if you get the same "DRIFT" (hijacked from N_N Vocab) as me, may be this is just a hallucinated poem by Ronnie J.

I used to like this song mainly due to it's spectacula guitar parts, but, lyrics too are spectacular in a cetain point of view, would like to see what you guys think.........listen & read the lyrics & comment.........

(Dont say this is the wrong section, 'cause this is about Lyrics, not music)

    More of a Poem written when flying a mile high on absolute CRACK :lol::lol:

    But, I like that part mate !
     
    Well, A Good one! Thanks Big J. I also got caught by the amazing guitar parts. Also the meaning is about all of us being in a theory but not bleeding for it. It's the damn way we are made live after all. I remembered Bob's Time will tell and Kinky reggae songs. Not equal perfectly but touching a bit.

    PS

    Hay The song I Downloaded is playing some noises after a half.

    well... indeed interesting..... but seems to me the dude was just high when he wrote it :lol:

    but then again......... some people are really quite profound while they're high eh? :rofl: anyway nice lyrics :)

    going off on a tangent here .. I used to have this friend.. we would talk for hours and hours on a vast variety of topics and have some great conversations... it occured to me later that the best of those were while he was off in another world so to speak... so who knows........ maybe there's something here that us sober souls can't quite grasp :P ;)
    (I speak for myself, since I didn't really get much of it)
