My entry. The song os called Shackles. Original lyrics are greyed out above mine for rythm reference.

 

 

Shackles

 

Alles lebendige stirbt eines tages

In the darkest night I look for You

Ob wir zum sterben bereit sind oder nicht,

Arms I cannot hold, eyes I cannot see.

Der tag kommt sicher

Love I can't ever have

 

Ist das der engel, der vom dämmernden

High walls of sorrow follow where I go

Himmerl hinunter flog?

Am I stuck? Am I lost?

Ist das der teufel, der aus der felsenspaite

Will I be trapped for long inside your spell?

Heraus kroch?

A bird in a cage

 

Tränen, ärger, mitleid, grausamkeit

Painfull, sorrow, lost love, lost way to...

Frieden, chaos, glaube, verrat

the light inside your heart, let me...

Wir werden gegen unser schicksal

go now, be free, of You

Ankämpfer

Of your spell

Wir dürfen uns nicht unser schicksal

I'm learning, trough pain, to walk once again

Ergeben

So now..

 

Mit trauer und entscheidung I'm herzen

I'll leave the shackles of your shadow

Zeigen wir den willen weiterzugehen

And walk again towards the light I once held

Niemand darf eigensinnig seines lebens

Love that will not consume, that once was lost

Beraubt werden

Inside my soul

Reconnaissance

 

Proud and beautiful

I sing to please

Creating melodies

A desperate tune

 

In vain I try to impress

The people who judge me

Unimportant listeners

Completely powerless

A cat in front of a bird in a cage

 

I continue to whistle

The others have flown

Merely longing for freedom

Less valuable, still a gift

 

The more pleasant my song

The sadder I get

Never good enough to fly

The bird is losing its voice.

First Meeting

 

 

 

The pleasant breeze of spring

Brought my heart aflutter.

The gaze from afar, the unhindered smile

Tinge pink the cheeks of ivory.

 

Crossing the sea of people,

With purpose all too clear;

I stood enthralled,

Captured in the depths of your eyes.

 

That eternal moment

When we first met

Was the beginning of my end,

The vicissitude of our passion.

 

A firm grasp,

Forever never leaving your hand.

A willing bird in a cage

Forever locked up in your arms.

Former Self

 

I'm living without life like a rainbow without color

Exhausted and fully dried like a river without water

Covered with fear, pain, sorrow and anger

As if I'm losing hope to be upgraded and look better

 

Bird in a cage, I have no chance to be free

I can't even hear nor I can't even see

There's only one wish that make me happy

Give me just one minute, to catch the Eden's beauty

 

Don't have any mouth that I can use to laugh

Cant move forward when I don't know how to stop

Oh please rescue me, I need some help

Help me recover my former self.

THAT BIRD

 

i see in my dreams a bird in a cage

beautiful but why is it crying?

mesmerizing, as it spreads its wings

wings that have never tried flying

 

that bird flies in its small world

watching as others in the sky soar

a song it sang and my head whirled

never have i heard a song as sore

 

its face so elegant yet so strained

weary and lonely but meek as a dove

it aches my heart, that bird's pain

is it seeking freedom? or waiting for love?

 

i can not go near

i can only dream

to see it fly

see someone save it

hoping for someone

to set that bird free

from the cage that was never

locked to begin with

Here, I am....

 

Dare to say, I do love you

Do you hear me?

Don’t be scared, I say the truth

Just want you come

To my fantasy world

 

Lose your mind

You should break through

So, you’d realize

All you have to see

 

Remember the time

First day we’ve met

You lit my life

You made my day

Time flies by

 

 

Flames to dust

Hush to burst

You have been changed

All I do, all went wrong

You’d walked away

How could I stay strong?

Within the Lullaby

Like a bird in a cage,

I am trapped within insecurities,

Anything but pleasantries,

Surrounded by nothing but rage,

 

The walls that surrounds me,

Dare not let me breathe,

Just like in my mind,

I long to be free,

 

Within the lullaby,

I see nothing but sorrow,

Long awaiting for my tomorrow,

As I long to say a goodbye,

 

Like a bird in a cage,

I long to grow old ripe in age,

The bars that surrounds me,

Dare not set me free,

 

I stand amidst a shore,

Constantly reminding myself that there’s more,

Within my confines,

I know that I still have my mind,

 

Within the lullaby,

I make no sound,

Listen closely to hear a trace of a cry,

Until then, I’ll wait until that time when I’m found.

On The Inside

 

On the outside- is it where I long to be?

Inside I'm lost and captured by a prison that surrounds me

I beg of you to let me free

Let me go even though you love to see me unhappy

 

When I sleep, it is not on a bed of feathers

When I speak, there is no one listening to me

 

On the outside - is it where I long to be?

Whenever you hesitate on releasing me my heart drifts in the wind like a dying butterfly

Because I'm afraid to die

Without your control

I'll never be able to fly

Will I ever be free?

When will my tears become dry?

Maybe when I'm on the outside...
