THE VERVE

Will those feet in modern times
Walk on soles that are made in China?
Feel the bright prosaic malls
In the corridors that go on and on and on

Are we blind – can we see?
We are one – incomplete
Are we blind – In the shade
Waiting for lightning – to be saved
Cause love is noise and love is pain
Love is these blues that I’m singing again
Love is noise and love is pain
Love is these blues that I’m singing again, again

Will those feet in modern times
Understand this world’s affliction
Recognise the righteous anger
Understand this world’s addiction?…

di Simons, Florent, Huts

EPICA

Can’t you hear me screaming once again?
Voices you can’t hear
Because you are consumed and in content
With everlasting greed

Don’t you see me on my hands and knees?
Begging and bleeding
You’re smiling as you bite the hand that feeds
But we’re not foreseen

Always wanting what your eyes can’t see
Feeling what your arms can’t reach
Thinking you are in need
Always hearing what your ears can’t hear
Feeling what your arms can’t touch
Thinking you are incomplete

It was never enough that I gave to you
All of the horror that you’ve put me through
But I cannot make up my mind this time
This is where I will draw the line…
