Did we get this far just to feel your hate?
Did we play to become only pawns in the game?
Did we play to become only pawns in the game?
Lately I've been listening to a lot of Nightwish, I blame my friend Brandon for getting me addicted to them and now I can't get enough of them. I recently dled their newest album "Dark Passion Play" and have fallen in love with the Track titled Bye Bye Beautiful.
Even if it was directed towards their old vocalists and how she apparently began to hate their music. I don't quite follow what happened to her, all I know is I like their music regardless if its the old singer or the new one.
So here's the lyrics to this song. If you're a Nightwish Fan and haven't heard this song, I recommend you check it out, it's awesome.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Finally the hills are without eyes
They are tired of painting a dead man's face red
With their own blood
They used to love having so much to lose
Blink your eyes just once and see everything in ruins
Did you ever hear what I told you?
Did you ever read what I wrote you?
Did you ever listen to what we played?
Did you ever let in what the world said?
Did we get this far just to feel your hate?
Did we play to become only pawns in the game?
How blind can you be, don't you see?
You chose the long road, but we'll be waiting
Bye bye, beautiful...
Jacob's ghost for the girl in white
Blindfold for the blinded
Siblings walking the dying earth
Noose around a choking heart
Eternity torn apart
So toll now the funeral bells
"No need to die to prove a lie”
Did you ever hear what I told you?
Did you ever read what I wrote you?
Did you ever listen to what we played?
Did you ever let in what the world said?
Did we get this far just to feel your hate?
Did we play to become only pawns in the game?
How blind can you be, don't you see?
You chose the long road, but we'll be waiting
Bye bye, beautiful...
It’s not the tree that forsakes the flower
But the flower that forsakes the tree
Someday I’ll learn to love these scars
Still fresh from the red-hot blade of your words
...How blind can you be, don’t you see...
...that the gambler lost all he does not have...
Did you ever hear what I told you?
Did you ever read what I wrote you?
Did you ever listen to what we played?
Did you ever let in what the world said?
Did we get this far just to feel your hate?
Did we play to become only pawns in the game?
How blind can you be, don’t you see?
You chose the long road but we’ll be waiting
Bye bye, beautiful
Bye bye, beautiful
bye bye, beautiful
Bye, bye, bye, bye.
How blind can you be, don't you see?
You chose the long road, but we'll be waiting
You chose the long road, but we'll be waiting
