This is an Iced Earht song composed by Jon Schaffer him self.- Valley Forge - Close your eyes and imagine
The soldier at valley Forge
The suffering taht he endured was real
Stravation, Total War
Yet in his eyes, the Iron Will To WIn
And for the cause he wont relent Standing barefoot, Frozen bloody hands
His musket clutched, an Iron Grip
For the cause he has but one regret
That hes only got one life to give [Chorus]
Would he look upon us now
In anger and Discust ?
His providence, our Birthright and our Creed
Will we let ignorance and laziness
Bring our demise ?
Complacency , We're blinded by our greed Its time for us to open up our eyes
And cherish the lives we all can have
And to the ones who've kept our freedom free
Words cant express all that you have done
[chorus]
Would he look upon us now
in anger and discust ?
His providence, our birthright and our Creed
Will we let ignorance and laziness
Bring our demise ?
Complacency, We're blinded by our greed I will leave these lyrics to be interpreted however the viewer wishes to see them. IP: Logged |

Tell him he should get Iced Earths The Glorius Burden albaum. At the end it has a 3 movement heavy metal with orchestra symphony - Gettysburg Symphony. I love it ! Every other song on the albaum is based on some particular characters point of view in different wars throghout history... Even has Atilah. IP: Logged |

You really do have to filter out the songs and movies nowadays. Most of it is garbage. And they all have different meanings to different people. You can find signs in the most simplest things. Look at the sun that comes up in the morning to brighten your day, and helps you to see, that plants need to survive, and hence you need to survive too. And the night, for sleep. Be grateful for what you have right under your nose. And don't waste your precious life in paranoia or trying to convince others. Everyone has their own will, their own soul...and their own tests and trials. Focus on your own soul first. And if you want to lead, then lead by example.

Very true that signs from the devine are all around, and everywhere for those who look and listen DayDreamer..... but are you sure that you arent once again trying to downplay the true potency and power that lies in MUSIC and the other arts once again ?!!! Theres always what and how a song is taken by the particular individual ears, but theres no doubt the auther/composer had an original intent of message and meening, even if he/she where to have ment nothing.

Hey, Magus of Music,
Songs really hold alot of meaning for me, there's always been messages there, for me.
You know, the one's that really grab your heart, and can even sometimes, make you cry.
Sending you Love and Light for your concert, it'll be great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!MAGICIP: Logged |

Well there are signs in everything if you look, positive and negative signs. Most of the music out there, in my opinion, isn't spreading much positivity. I don't recall downplaying music's potency. Perhaps you are talking about types of music. And what other arts are you talking about?IP: Logged |

I keep thinking of LindaLand when I hear this song, and, in particular, the bolded words:Five-O
Are you open for trade
Your salvation, for something, for some thrills
Is a body of work for your inspection
You can trace, trace my concern
My concern I've been looking for truth
At the cost of living
I've been afraid
Of what's before mine eyes
Every answer found
Begs another question
The further you go, the less you know
The less i know I can feel your face
Gonna make it mine
I can be the man
I see in your eyes
Can you take my weight
Are we both too small
Know each other well
We've met before Will we grow together
Will it be a lie
If it lasts forever, hope i'm the first to die
Will you marry me, can we meet the cost
Is the power of love worth the pain of loss
Can you pay the bill, will you keep the change
Are you here for the party, or are you here for the pain I can feel your face
Gonna make it mine
I can be the man
I see in your eyes
Will we grow together
Will it be a lie
If it lasts forever, hope i'm the first to die
Hope i'm the first to die It's by a band named James on an album called Laid.  I absolutely love this band! The singer's quite the philosopher in my book. How are these for some opening lines?: I'm a member of an ape-like race
At the as$hole end of the twentieth century
This film's a thriller of the mind
Will we destroy our homes, release ourselves from the
Weights of gravity?
I'll be amazed if we survive

That singer, Tim Booth, is really something. Not always, but enough that he's one of my favorite lyricists ever. I want to post more of his lyrics, but I'm not sure which ones.IP: Logged |
