Clawfinger – Sad to See Your Sorrow

Clawfingerin debyyttialbumilta löytyy hieno tilitys voimattomuuden tunteesta kun huumeitten kanssa kamppailevan frendin vierellä on niin turhautunut olo kun tuntuu, ettei voi tehdä mitään auttaakseen häntä.

”I want to touch you but I don’t possess the power
it turns me inside out to feel the pain of your distress
you push the needle deeper in your arm for every hour
I know your life was so beautiful but now it’s turned into a mess
I’ve tried to understand you but the thoughts seems so unreal
that a person would forsake herself and try to break herself with pain
just like a child you’re so innocent and you long so much to feel
but instead you push the needle deeper down your vein
sad to see you sad to see your sorrow
you know I’ve seen you in so many diffrent ways
the reflections of your agony are scared upon your face
warm the spoon just to numb yourself from much much better days
and you hope that someone else is there who might want to take your place
everything you scream I hear you thought you scream so silent
and you’re longing for your babychild to be in a much better place
so addicted to your loneliness full of self destructive violence
you still try to love your child and see the smile opon it’s face
sad to see you sad to see your sorrow…..
take away the pain and take away the sorrow
I cry in silence hoping you’ll come through
take away the pain you could be dead tommorow
I wish that I could help you but there’s nothing I can do
I WISH I COULD HELP YOU BUT THERE’S NOTHING I CAN DO
I feel as if I’m by your side even though you’re far away from here
the poison mingles with your blood and slowly satisfies you
but what I wonder most of all is if you really want to disappear
you keep struggleing with emotions mixed inside you
please don’t disappear you know to many people love you
but you see you’re still the only one that can ever dry your tears
so don’t you rely on anyone below or up above you
you better grab your life and then get a grip before it disappears
sad to see you sad to see your sorrow”

Pain – Injected Paradise

”How does it feel to get kicked when you’re down and out?
I said how does it feel to get pushed off the edge and just fall
fall to the ground?

the more that you do, the less you get
why can’t see you you’re going down

you’re on your knees, you’re begging me please
can’t get away from the needle’s chill
you’re taking a ride in endless time
injected paradise

silence rolls up like walls of noise
you’re getting numb and deaf
things are getting out of control
you’re out of control

the more that you do, the less you get
the poison rushing through your dying veins
the more that you take, the more you loose
time is taking its toll

you’re on your knees, you’re begging me please
can’t get away from the needle’s chill
you’re taking a ride in endless time
injected paradise

the more that you do, the less you get
the poison rushing through your dying veins
the more that you take, the more you loose
time is taking its toll

you’re on your knees, you’re begging me please
can’t get away from the needle’s chill
you’re taking a ride in endless time
injected paradise”

Alice Cooper – Poison

Kyllähän tässä on kyse rakkaudessa riutumisesta, mutta biisin voi ”lukea” kyllä helposti kertovan huumeistakin:
”I hear you calling and it’s needles and pins (And pins)
I want to hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Don’t want to touch you but you’re under my skin (Deep in)”
