Until the Cowards behind
the attacks over the United States are caught I am leaving this page up. My
site will be active still. I'm just making sure everyone has to go through this
small tribute to get to it.
The songs chosen for this are ones that fit my mood about the situation. When ever I was depressed or angered about something I would turn to music as a release. I hope that the words written in the past help to ease the minds of those in sorrow. I'm just sorry that I couldn't chose some happier songs. But with what has been happening... I feel that these would ease some pain.
And because NYC was really more of a Global city, not all of the songs on this page are done by Americans. I know that not only Americans are in mourning.
I can't believe the news today
I can't close my eyes
And make it go away
How long... How long must we sing this song?
How long?
How long...
Tonight... we can be as one
Tonight...
~Sunday Bloody Sunday~ U2
(Only a small bit of the song is here just for my initial reaction. Bono said
it best when he sang the words...)
If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me? well, I must be traveling on now
Cause there's too many places I've got to
see.
If I stay here with you, girl,
Things just couldn't be the same
Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird you cannot change.
Oh,
oh, oh, oh And this bird you cannot change.
And this bird you cannot change.
Lord knows I can't change.
Bye, bye, baby, it's been a sweet love, yea,
yea,
Though this old feeling I can't change.
Please don't take it so
badly,
Cause Lord knows, I'm to blame.
If I stayed here with you,
girl,
Things just couldn't be the same.
Cause I'm as free as a bird now,
And this bird you cannot change.
Oh, oh, oh, oh And this bird you cannot
change.
And this bird you cannot change.
Lord knows, I can't
change.
Lord help me, I can't change.
Lord, I can't change.
Won't you
fly high a free bird, yea.
~Free Bird~ Lynyrd Skynyrd
Queen of Light took her bow
And then she turned to go,
The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom
And walked the night alone.
Oh,
dance in the dark of night,
Sing to the morn-ing light.
The dark Lord
rides in force tonight
And time will tell us all.
Oh, throw down your plow
and hoe,
Rest not to lock your homes.
Side by side we wait the
might
Of the darkest of them all.
I hear the horses' thunder
Down in
the valley below,
I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon,
Waiting for the
eastern glow.
The apples of the valley hold
The seeds of happiness,
The ground is rich from tender care,
Repay, do not forget, no, no.
Oh,
dance in the dark of night,
Sing to the morning light.
The apples turn to
brown and black,
The tyrant's face is red.
Oh the war is common cry,
Pick up you swords and fly.
The sky is filled with good and bad
That
mortals never know.
Oh, well, the night is long
The beads of time pass
slow,
Tired eyes on the sunrise,
Waiting for the eastern glow.
The
pain of war cannot exceed
The woe of aftermath,
The drums will shake the
castle wall,
The ringwraiths ride in black,
Ride on.
Sing as you
raise your bow,
Shoot straighter than before.
No comfort has the fire at
night
That lights the face so cold.
Oh dance in the dark of
night,
Sing to the mornin' light.
The magic runes are writ in gold
To
bring the balance back.
Bring it back.
At last the sun is shining,
The
clouds of blue roll by,
With flames from the dragon of darkness
The
sunlight blinds his eyes.
~The battle of Evermore~ Led Zeppelin
Fire!
I can see it burning so brightly
Fire!
I can
feel it calling out to me
And as the sun goes down
It starts to paint a
picture of an ancient town
So far away, across the endless sea
Lead me to
the light
And take me to the edge of heaven
I'm standing in the
night
Looking for the edge of heaven
We'll be touching the edge of heaven
Time
Close your eyes see dreams of tomorrow
Time
The wheels are
turning till eternity
And as the darkness comes
I start to see a picture
of a lonely man
So clearly now reaching out for me
Lead me to the
light...
And sail the endless sea so lead me to the light and take me to the
edge of heaven
The edge of heaven is near
We'll sail the endless
sea
