the tower

• enfes bir bruce dickinson şarkısı.. chemical wedding albümünden..
  
  there are twelve commandments^*
  there are twelve divisions
  twelve are the pagans who have mapped the sky
  
  in the outer circle
  to the inner sanctum
  from the octave at the end of time
  
  the fountain, the trinity
  the pilgrim is searching for blood
  to look for his own free will
  the stone of infinity, washed in the flood
  
  lovers in the tower
  
  the moon and sun divided
  
  and the hanged man smiles
  
  lovers in the tower
  
  the moon and sun divided
  
  let the fool decide
  in the atom circle
  where we break the stars
  hammer into anvil, stuffing out the sun
  
  witness all the killing
  see the birth of mars
  our religion thrown into the fire
  
  the fountain, the trinity
  the pilgrim is searching for blood
  to look for his own free will
  the stone of infinity, washed in the flood
  
  lovers in the tower
  
  the moon and sun divided
  
  the hanged man smiles
  
  lovers in the tower
  
  the moon and sun divided
  
  the magician laughs
  
  lovers in the tower
  
  the moon and sun divided
  
  and the priestess kneels
  
  lovers in the tower
  
  the moon and sun divided
  
  let the fool decide
  
  lovers in the tower
  
  the moon and sun divided
  
  and the hanged man smiles
  
  lovers in the tower
  
  the moon and sun divided
  
  let the fool decide
  
  lovers in the tower
  
  the moon and sun divided
  
  the priestess kneels to receive
  
  lovers in the tower
  
  the moon and sun divided
  
  the magician laughs

  the tower
  
  [gabriel]
  where do i go?
  
  never had a very real dream before.
  now i got a vision of an open door.
  guiding me home, where i belong,
  dreamland i have come.
  
  oh where do i go?
  
  never had a flesh and blood like this before.
  got a new appearance when i passed the door.
  is it a dream i am withing? oh what's going on?
  
  down, down, down
  go down, go down, go down
  i roam into nowhere.
  don't see an end: eternal wastelands.
  and i hear the voice, the voice, the voice, the voice...
  
  hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah...
  
  never been a fighter, neber been a man.
  but i must help vandroiy, he's my only friend.
  nowhere to go but i know that he knows how
  we will get her out...
  
  magic of transcendence
  brought me to this place
  vandroiy in reality lead me on my race.
  told me to bring back the seal
  but still i don't know where i shall go.
  
  [lugaid]
  can't you 'feel' the voice?
  you don't have a choice.
  what a kind of life:
  freedom in flesh - shackles on your mind...
  
  go all the way to the tower!
  find out the secrets behind!
  go all the way to the tower!
  for all the wisdom of ages doesn't die.
  
  [elderane]
  men have good intentions
  on their way to the light.
  but som of them are venal
  and end up in the night.
  maybe it's better for you, mankind,
  not to know what's going on.
  
  [gabriel]
  sometimes we must go
  ways that seem to be wrong.
  what a kind of life: freedom in flesh,
  shackles on your mind...
  
  [lugaid]
  go all the way to the tower!
  find out the secrets behind!
  go all the way to the tower!
  find out the name of the one
  who reigns from inside...
  
  [voice in the tower]
  you have come the long way through ages
  to bring me the seven parts of the seal.
  so now throw it over the walls of the tower.
  throw the seal!
  
  [pope]
  but first godfather, what about the prophecy? what
  about your reward: the ultimate illumination, the
  gnosis and the power to defend your kingdom on
  earth with a strong hand? what about the prophecy?
  
  [lugaid]
  i realize...
  
  [all]
  for the glory, for the glory, for the glory,
  for the glory. oh - what is going on?
  for the glory, for the glory, for the glory,
  for the glory. oh - what is going on?
  
  [lugaid]
  gabriel i can feel:
  you have it back - book and seal.
  still no war is won, we have just begun...
  
  go all the way to the tower!
  long for the secrets behind!
  go all the way to the tower!
  found out the name of the one
  who reigns from inside...
  
  go all the way to the tower!
  long for the secrets behind!
  go all the way to the tower!
  found out the name of the one,
  of the one...
  
  [jakob]
  oh, how could the stranger steal the seal away?
  was it my fault? or was it no one's fault at all?
• muhte$em avantasia $arkisi. mukemmel vokaller bir yana, gercekten cok seslilikte ilerleme var, tabi blind guardian kadar olmasa da.
• tarot kartı:
  kartın tanımı: kartta, bir yıldırımın isabeti ile damı yıkılan bir kule görülür. aşağıya, insanlar ve ateş parçaları düşmektedirler. anlatılmak istenen, eskimiş düşüncelerin yıkılması, cahilliğin ve materyalizmin manevi gerçekler karşısında çökmesi simgelenmekte-dir. kulenin üzerinde görülen taç, materyalist düşünceyi belirler. bazı yorumlarda, bu karta, "yıkılan kule" yerine tanrının evi denmektedir. önceki kartın aksine, yani karanlıkların efendisi dionisos'a karşıt olarak, ışığın kaynağı ve tanrısı olan apollo'ya atfedilmiştir. arabik sayı sistemine göre, kartın toplam sayısı olan 7, kudretin ve pozitif gücün simgesidir. bir diğer tanımda, kulenin tepesine gelen yıldırımın tanrı’dan veya cennetten geldiği belirtilir. sonuç olarak, geçerli realiteye olan dinamizmin kaybedildiği anlatılmaktadır.
  
  kehanet anlamı: anlaşmazlıklar ve beklenmeyen felaketler. sefalet, keder, rezalet, fakirlik. eski bilginlerin çökmesi. yararlı sonuçların, ancak kötü bir olaydan sonra ortaya çıkması. bu kart ters olduğu zaman kuvvetlidir.
  
  ters anlamı: zulüm, sıkıntı, baskı, kendini bozma ve yıkma. hapis ve kaçınılmaz dert.

• bruce dickinson'un şarkısı olan the tower, iron maiden'ın wrathchild şarkısına basları ve yapısı ile fazlaca (gereğinden fazla) benzer. nerdeyse "kopyalamışlar, iron maiden'dan kolaj yapmışlar" diyeceğim, ama saygımdam susuyorum. bak sustum.
  
  king in crimson, omega, chemical wedding, jerusalem, taking the queen olmasa zor susardım, onu da belirteyim ama... sayın roy z ve bruce dickinson beyler...

  cross the sky, as we let our
  flight design, heaven
  born to rise, to forever
  follow our hearts,
  you and i, stand together,
  binding ties, severed
  learn to fly, or you’ll never
  reach for the stars
  
  as true believers our love is rare,
  so many seekers so much despair
  
  there in you, i can see a
  dawn, a new, era
  breaking through, shouting from the
  dark to be heard,
  pure belief, we were always
  meant to be, you’re my
  fantasy, you are something
  out of this world
  
  we’ll find a place for the love we share,
  so take my hand i will take you there
  
  on through the night,
  shine like the stars,
  no trick of the light fades
  this nebula,
  nothing to loose,
  strong and true,
  as always i remember
  we prove our love
  
  this tower is to defend our love,
  this mountainside is mirrored on emotion,
  no power could ever bend our love,
  it’s alive in our hearts tonight
  
  life is life, never let it
  pass you by, never
  justify, anything your
  heart can control,
  in our time, we create our
  piece of mind, for how
  high you climb, doesn’t mean the
  harder you fall,
  you can’t be blind, only fools rush in,
  you must abide by the rules to win
  
  on through the night,
  shine like the stars,
  no trick of the light fades
  this nebula,
  nothing to loose,
  strong and true,
  as always i remember
  we prove our love
  
  this tower is to defend our love,
  this mountainside is mirrored on emotion,
  no power could ever bend our love,
  it’s alive in our hearts tonight
  
  this flower will not decay my love,
  this fountain is a trickle in the ocean,
  it’s ours and time again my love,
  it’s alive in our hearts tonight,
  it’s a fire from a spark tonight...
