Whiskey Lullaby , i think ..
i like this song now ! this song is about a man and a woman who were married; he went to war and when he came back she was with another man. He kills himself, drinking himself to death, leaving a note to say that he still loves her. I...n the next verse the woman is mourning his loss. She thinks it's her fault and kills herself as well, drinking herself to death, holding his picture.
harts burst into fire, road to nowhere, say goodbye and for ever and allways are songs that touch me the most. all by bullet for my valientine and some by within temptation are touching too but in diffrent ways for me.
The saddest song for me would be Our Farewell by Within Temptation... every time i hear it it makes me cry because it reminds me of my nan... she had 2 strokes about a year ago and is completely different... we used to be really close (she was more my mum than my mum is) but now its like shes dead but her body is still here taunting me... The song itself is like a question/answer. I see my self saying bits and my nan replying in others... tell you what... heres the lyrics with mine and my nans parts marked out...
Within Temptation- Our Farewell
(ME)
In my hands
A legacy of memories
I can hear you say my name
I can almost see your smile
Feel the warmth of your embrace
But there is nothing but silence now
Around the one I loved
Is this our farewell?
(NAN)
Sleep darling you worry too much, my child
See the sadness in your eyes
You are not alone in life
Although you might think that you are
(ME)
Never thought
This day would come so soon
We had no time to say goodbye
How can the world just carry on?
I feel so lost when you are not at my side
But there is nothing but silence now
Around the one I loved
Is this our farewell?
(NAN)
Sleep darling you worry too much, my child
See the sadness in your eyes
You are not alone in life
Although you might think that you are
(NAN)
So sorry your world is tumbling down
I'll watch you through these nights
Rest your head and go to sleep
Because my child, this is not our farewell.
This is not our farewell.
The sun disappeared right before my eyes
My heart turned and walked away
I gave you the keys to an open door
And you threw them right back at me
Once again I'm alone with a pain in my chest
So sad, so sad, so alone
The clouds start to gather, here comes the rain
You meant more than you could know
I can't say I miss you
You're always around
I can't say I love you
'Cause you'll cut me down
I'm wounded and hurt
And that's my fault
But I made my decision with my back to the wall
And I gotta move on from here
I've done all that I can do
Yeah I gotta move on from here
I've been swimming upstream for you
As time passes by, I can't explain
It's hard to be next to you
Is it my face or is it everything
That you're not attracted to?
I'm so lost and confused when I look at you
Your eyes, your lips, so soft
And then when you see me, I turn away
'Cause I know that I turn you off
I can't say I miss you
You're always around
I can't say I love you
'Cause you'll cut me down
I'm wounded and hurt
And that's my fault
But I made my decision with my back to the wall
And I gotta move on from here
I've done all that I can do
Yeah I gotta move on from here
I've been swimming upstream for you
I've been swimming upstream for you
I've been swimming upstream for you
Yeah, I've been swimming upstream for you
I've been swimming upstream for you
