SING OUT!

[Rainshadow]

  Once We Were (a Dragon Age: Inquisition tavern song) by Elizaveta Khripounova (Maryden).

Once we were
in our peace with our lives assured.

Once we were
not afraid of the dark.

Once we sat in our kingdom
with hope and pride.

Once we ran through
the fields with great strides.

We held the Fade
and the demon's flight
so far from our children
and from our lives.

We held together
the fragile sky
to keep our way of life.

Once we raised
up our chalice in victory.

Once we sat
in the light of our dreams.

Once we were
in our homeland with strength and might.

Once we were
not afraid of the night.

We held the Fade
and the demon's flight
so far from our children
and from our lives.

We held together
the fragile sky
to keep our way of life.

YES! I'm so glad I decided to click on this thread because it is SO COOL!


There was a time
I used to look into my father's eyes.
In a happy home
I was a king, I had a golden throne.
Those days are gone,
Now the memory's on the wall.
I hear the songs
From the places where I was born.

Upon a hill across a blue lake,
That's where I had my first heartbreak.
I still remember how it all changed.

My father said,
"Don't you worry, don't you worry, child.
See heaven's got a plan for you.
Don't you worry, don't you worry now."
Yeah!

"Don't you worry, don't you worry, child.
See heaven's got a plan for you.
Don't you worry, don't you worry now."
Yeah!

There was a time
I met a girl of a different kind.
We ruled the world,
I thought I'd never lose her out of sight.
We were so young,
I think of her now and then.
I still hear the songs
Reminding me of a friend.

Upon a hill across a blue lake,
That's where I had my first heartbreak.
I still remember how it all changed.

My father said,
"Don't you worry, don't you worry, child.
See heaven's got a plan for you.
Don't you worry, don't you worry now."
Yeah!

Oh, oh, oh!
Oh, oh, oh!

See heaven's got a plan for you
See heaven's got a plan for you
See heaven's got a plan for you

"Don't you worry, don't you worry, child.
See heaven's got a plan for you.
Don't you worry, don't you worry now."
Yeah!

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! [3x]
Yeah!

A Little But of Everything, by Dawes.
With his back against the San Francisco traffic
On the bridges side that faces towards the jail
Setting out to join a demographic
He hoists his first leg up over the rail

And a phone call is made, police cars show up quickly
The sergeant slams his passenger door
He says, "Hey son why don't you talk through this with me?
Just tell me what you're doing it for"

"Oh, it's a little bit of everything
It's the mountains, it's the fog
It's the news at six o'clock
It's the death of my first dog"

"It's the angels up above me
It's the song that they don't sing
It's a little bit of everything"

An older man stands in a buffet line
He is smiling and holding out his plate
And the further he looks back into his timeline
That hard road always had led him to today

And making up for when his bright future had left him
Making up for the fact that his only son is gone
And letting everything out once, his server asks him
"Have you figured out yet, what it is you want?"

I want a little bit of everything
The biscuits and the beans
Whatever helps me to forget about
The things that brought me to my knees

So pile on those mashed potatoes
And an extra chicken wing
I'm having a little bit of everything

Somewhere a pretty girl is writing invitations
To a wedding she has scheduled for the fall
Her man says, "Baby, can I make an observation?
You don't seem to be having any fun at all"

She said, "You just worry about
Your groomsmen and your shirt-size
And rest assured that this is making me feel good"
I think that love is so much easier than you realize
If you can give yourself to someone, then you should

'Cause it's a little bit of everything
The way you choke, the way you ache
It is waking up before you
So I can watch you as you wake

So in the day in late September
It's not some stupid little ring
I'm giving a little bit of everything

Oh, it's a little bit of everything
It's the matador and the bull
It's the suggested daily dosage
It is the red moon when it's full

All these psychics and these doctors
They're all right and they're all wrong
It's like trying to make out every word
When they should simply hum along

It's not some message written in the dark
Or some truth that no one's seen
It's a little bit of everything

  Rise (a Dragon Age: Inquisition tavern song) by Elizaveta Khripounova (Maryden).

Find me
still searching
for someone
to lead me.
Can you
guide me
to the revolt inside me?

Promise
surviving
the Breach...

Promise
surviving
the Breach
in the sky.

Templar
igniting
fire inside me.

Maker
remind me,
gone are the days
of our peace.

Now we reside
in the great divide.

No promise
surviving
the Breach
in the sky.

I'm gonna have a nightmare tonight
I'm gonna be my nightmare tonight

You're pretty picky, you're a clique of one
I'm right though, surely I'm not the only gun you've got loaded?
How do you keep from gloating?
You're pretty tricky, did you pick that shade
just to distract from the flash of the shining blade you've got hidden?
Deep wounds overwritten

I had so many new friends to see
so many possibilities
now I couldn't possibly feel worse
I had so many fires left to nurse

In my nightmare tonight I'll see giant leviathans
breaking the water in half with their shining skin
riding them laughing you'll be in my nightmare tonight

In my nightmare tonight I'll see beasts all stampeding
your signia burned onto haunches still healing
and leading the pack on their backs in my nightmare tonight
You'll be in my nightmare tonight, tonight...

You're pretty ugly when you get down to it,
combined, I've half a mind to just say screw it and break completely,
or surrender so sweetly
I thought I'd have a chance to be my own,
free from the tyranny of your tarnished throne.
Now I see that kingdom belongs to me, oh no...

I had so many irons in the fire
so many brands and swords
To their backsides I had even more
So many plans on what they're for

In my nightmare tonight, there's volcanoes erupting
A red hot web veining the land, it's disgusting
cracked mountains of madness, your hand in my nightmare tonight

In my nightmare tonight I'll see me all consumed,
and attempting to sing disharmonious tunes with you.
Asynchronicity, I am in misery. I am in misery!
What has been done to me?

In my nightmare tonight
In my nightmare tonight
In my nightmare tonight
In my nightmare tonight

In my nightmare tonight I'll see giant leviathans
breaking the water in half with their shining skin
riding them laughing you'll be in my nightmare tonight
you'll be in my nightmare tonight

"All my life I stay here waiting
Every new year, always making me
Feel as though there's nothing up there but
One day you came out of nowhere
1985 was a good year
The sky broke apart and you appeared
Dropped from the heavens, they call me a dreamer
I won't lie, I knew you would belong here
Lifted off the ground
I took your hands and pulled you down
Because 1985 was a good year
I won't lie, I knew you would belong here"

Sing it out
Boy, you've got to see what tomorrow brings
Sing it out
Girl, you've got to be what tomorrow needs
For every time that they try to count you out
Use your voice every single time you open up your mouth

Sing it for the boys
Sing it for the girls
Every time that you lose it sing it for the world
Sing it from the heart
Sing it 'til you're nuts
Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts
Sing it for the deaf
Sing it for the blind
Sing about everyone that you left behind
Sing it for the world
Sing it for the world

Sing it out
Boy, they're gonna sell what tomorrow means
Sing it out
Girl, before they kill what tomorrow brings
You've got to make a choice
If the music drowns you out
And raise your voice
Every single time they try and shut your mouth

Sing it for the boys
Sing it for the girls
Every time that you lose it sing it for the world
Sing it from the heart
Sing it 'til you're nuts
Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts
Sing it for the deaf
Sing it for the blind
Sing about everyone that you left behind
Sing it for the world
Sing it for the world

Cleaned-up corporation progress
Dying in the process
Children that can talk about it,
Living on the webways
People moving sideways
Sell it 'til your last days
Buy yourself the motivation
Generation nothing,
Nothing but a dead scene
Product of a white dream
I am not the singer that you wanted
But a dancer
I refuse to answer
Talk about the past, sir
Wrote it for the ones who want to get away

Keep running!

Sing it for the boys
Sing it for the girls
Every time that you lose it sing it for the world
Sing it from the heart
Sing it 'til you're nuts
Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts
Sing it for the deaf
Sing it for the blind
Sing about everyone that you left behind
Sing it for the world
Sing it for the world

You've got to see what tomorrow brings
Sing it for the world
Sing it for the world
Girl, you've got to be what tomorrow needs
Sing it for the world
Sing it for the world

  Whether near or far
  I am always yours
  Any change in time
  We are young again

  Lay us down
  We're in love
  Lay us down
  We're in love

  In these coming years
  Many things will change
  But the way I feel
  Will remain the same

  Lay us down
  We're in love
  Lay us down
  We're in love

I wonder if anyone is reading these.

I hope so.

*Tries to sing something with no words* Never mind that. How about I sing something that's completely predictable.

There is a place I call my own
Where I can stand by the sea
And look beyond the things I've known
And dream that I might be free

Like a bird above the trees
Gliding gently on the breeze
I wish that all my life I'd be
Without a care and flying free

But life is not a distant sky
Without a cloud, without rain
And I can never hope that I
Can travel on without pain

Time goes swiftly on it's way
All too soon we've lost today
I cannot wait for skies of blue
Or dream so long
That life is through

So life's a song that I must sing, a gift of love I must share

And when I see the joy it brings, my spirits soar through the air

Like that bird up in the sky, life has taught me how to fly

For now I know what I can be
And now my heart is flying free
Oooooo...

Mary had a little lamb,
little lamb, little lamb,
Mary had a little lamb,
it's fleece was white as snow...

Castle in the Sky by DJ Satomi

There's a place in my mind
No one knows where it hides
And my fantasy is flying
It's a castle in the sky

It's a world of our past
Where the legend still lasts
And the king wears the crown
But the magic spell is law

Take your sword and your shield
There's a battle on the field
You're a knight shining bright
And with dragons now you'll fight

And my fantasy is flying
It's a castle in the sky
Or there's nothing out there
These are castles in the air

Fairytales live in me
Fables coming from my memory
Fantasy is not a crime
Find your castle in the sky

You've got the key
Of the kingdom of the clouds
Open the door
Leaving back your doubts

You've got the power
To live another childhood
So ride the wind
That leads you to the moon 'cause...

Fairytales live in me
Fables coming from my memory
Fantasy is not a crime
Find your castle in the sky

[Icefire]

I wonder if anyone is reading these.

I usually do. To be completely honest, however, I'm way behind and really just scanned this last page.

@Skyblade: I have never heard "Castle in the Sky," but I love the lyrics! (I actually read that one! )

Of course, because of that title, I now have Castle on a Cloud from Les Miserables stuck in my head:

There is a castle on a cloud
I like to go there in my sleep
Aren't any floors for me to sweep
Not in my castle on a cloud

There is a room that's full of toys
There are a hundred girls and boys
Nobody shouts or talks too loud
Not in my castle on a cloud

There is a lady all in white
Holds me and sings a lullaby
She's nice to see and she's soft to touch
She says, "Cosette, I love you very much!"

I know a place where no one's lost
I know a place where no one cries
Crying at all is not allowed
Not in my castle on a cloud...



Yes, I did change at least one line. That was on purpose and had nothing to do with the fact that I was listening to another song while I typed the lyrics to this one....

[Skyblade]

Cool! Interesting song you got there...

I've seen your posts a lot. Are you staying for good? Anyway, welcome back.
