Lyrics for Meat Loaf
 

Hi Everybody!
I'd like to know Meat's (or Jim's) songs make you write songs or lyrics?
I was writing a text for Meat Loaf. It seems like Anything For love but not about love...
Well, here is a long lyrics what Mead should sing... if anybody could compose a melody for it...

Please, let me if you find mistakes in the text (grammar or words) and we will rewrite...


The Silent Man

The Earth is going and the twigs are being swayed
Buildings are crumbling and after every pained
The Silent Man lies in a pool of blood
You think you've been abandoned by God

And wasted years occur to me
Aware of shade of death revive memory
When I handed my friend over to the land
Because he belonged to another band
I owed him a debt of gratitude
But this was the slogan: “You win if you’ve aptitude”
And I was crying, I was shedding a tear
Something was breaking and I was seized by fear

I dropped next to his unspoiled body
And I absorbed in the sea of shame
Never, my soul never will be out of money
I gaoled a youth and I spoiled his game
I was running and running to the world
I hoped to could hide from my conscience
But I never feel to free myself like a bird
My lament heart will be reduced to exigence

The Earth is going and the twigs are being swayed
Buildings are crumbling and after every pained
The Silent Man lies in a pool of blood
You think you've been abandoned by God

Then I’ve remained silent and no said nevermore
I sank into myself and I’ve started the tor
It was his dream that he climbs the mountain
Pounce on all rocks and touch every quoin
Once I stood above his tomb and was praying
At the time the flowers dried and the fog was falling
There was something in the icy wind
I knew that no pardon and I was just diving

As far as I thought that I was damned
I spoke the act for nobody
But I’ve never thrown in my hand
Now and then inside here the other-world’s melody
sounds and torments me
My cry drifts away like an elegy
The fact hangs me in effigy
The time’s my mortal enemy

The leafs were falling off and the hope was frozen
But the sky’s kept silent and God’s not sent any omen
The Silent Man sat in rocker at the death’s door
His life passed by like current next to the shore

Have you ever seen the light?
Have you never been in night?
I’m short of breath without a break
I wish I’d live at the bottom of a lake
I would be the mud and the God would be the whirlpool
Then I ain’t wear a hood like one of the old school
And I ain’t wait the Lord comes on the scene
I ain’t want to be a silver-mounted epitaph as sin

Oh Silent Man! Oh Silent Man!
I ain’t like to die alone
I had got an elfin dream
I’m living in the middle of everything forever
Between sky and land I was the seam

Oh Silent Man! Oh Silent Man!
I will scoff at the wasted past
I will draw up the shaded blind
And ask to stars some questions
Why has changed my state of mind?
Why does it down late at night?
Why do I feel so that I mustn’t pay the tithe?

The gate of heaven’s opening and ground is drowning apart
And destructive firestorm is breaking somebody’s heart
The Silent Man stagger to his feet but
You still think you've been abandoned by God

His glaring glory’s hypnotizing me
I am hearing my destiny

God:
I ain’t detain you
You derive from calm
This world is your again on his way home

Silent Man:
You strike me with terror
I feel me in a hole

God:
Will you are a just person!
No roam more knight errant!
I liberate you out of fetters – my servant

Silent Man:
I think I’m dreaming now
I don’t follow why and how

God:
Explode the cosmos there inside!
Knock against your soul with the space
But I want to hear some prayer in any case

Silent Man:
I promise for you
I give it your due

God:
No make a reply to the evil
And the Earth will be burst into flame by candle
You suddenly saw a light at the end of the tunnel

Silent Man:
Give me just another world
I know you’re as good as your word

The earthquake was at an end
But the peaceful town is rent
The ice reckon with the fire
Devise reckon with desire
Everywhere blood and everywhere pain
In the dying eyes – there is stinging disdain
Damn it! Hey God! Go to Hell!
In the blazing wind – here is Lucifer

Lucifer:
Give me your irretrievable soul
I ain’t flutter the dovecotes
I announce the peace of holiness
The white color changes the black cause

Silent Man:
I don’t believe in you
You’re spark out of the blue

Lucifer:
Nobody like you in the ghost city
Your life’s been a blot on your copybook
You’ll drown into the shame
I could give you a peaceful nook

Silent Man:
I don’t believe in you
You’re spark out of the blue

Lucifer:
I’m not a devil
He’s living at the top
I’m just a diamond in a jeweler’s
But you are a schlemiel on the dock

Silent Man:
I don’t believe in you
You’re blur out of the blue

Lucifer:
What would you go against
with the stream?
It isn’t your most ardent wish
Come to your sense! It ain’t your dream

Silent Man:
It maybe true
Oh no, you’re blur out of the blue

The waves dash over my head
I ain’t sure of myself
I consider it new
Like an early dew
I feel the recoil of my own folly
My skull will be hurt by holly
No matter how heaven or hell
I’ll be content everywhere and it’s novel

Darkness past and darkness future
The darkness present read me a lecture
The Silent Man step over a threshold of death
And under the ruin he goes through his final breath…

Good stuff that. Long 8O .

Like Anything For Love...
I think a 12-15 minutes music would be good for it!

Indeed.

White Of High, I read The Silent Man, then i read it again and again. I think you think much,think deeply and you have the soul of a poet,White Of High.

Some of your lyrics that i find particularly beautiful are;

"I had got an elfin dream
I'm living in the middle of everything forever
Between sky and land i was the seam.."

"The gate of Heaven's opening and ground is drowning apart
And destructive firestorm is breaking somebody's heart."

"Darkness past and darkness future
The darkness present read me a lecture
The Silent Man steps over a threshold of death
And under the ruin he goes through his final death"

"Now and then inside here the other-world's melody
sounds and torments me..."

Also powerful words,

"Everywhere blood everywhere pain
in the dying eyes-there is stinging disdain.."

You write with feeling White Of High.
there are some parts where i do not understand what you are trying to convey/say.i do not mean that as a criticism.
The line "you think to be left by the God"I ,take it as meaning ,you think you have been abandoned by God, am i right?Ido not wish to criticise or correct your grammer etc as it would spoil what you have written which is beautiful in it's own right.

Awesome White of High - Such depth of emotion - I hope someone comes back to you on this - you really do deserve to have this song published

Yes Bren! It wanted to be that line. I will correct it.
And please, let me my mistakes! I have to know what must I correct!
And thanks your words!
Anybody knows a good composer?

White Of High,
to say "You think to be left by the God"even though not everyday /correct English,was still a very beautiful way of saying ,you think you are abandonded by God.
For me to correct or criticise what you have written would be wrong.,it is beautiful in it's own right,as it is.

Thanks Bren!
Just I don't know very well the grammar. And that sentence is meaningless and I think there are more wrong sentence...
If you find more please write for me!

I may be able to find some composers. I know a few bands who I write for, they may be able to cook something up for you. I'll get back to you on that.

Here's another:

Shadow In The Dark


Shadow in the dark…

I wish she holds out her arm
But a wolf’s whining in the wood
From there an owl hooting
And it’s troubling me
But I look out of the window
Sign’s being sent by the above
And stare at the sky
A shining band and a shooting star

And now my body’s bursting into flames
In my memories the lies are tinklin'
and bringing to mind her face
But disappear like water in the race
The tide’s sweeping me away
In the shape of a comet a fay
into my life give back Satiny Ray
Oh my soul brought to bay
I will battle with myself
Pay attention every abbey!
Every god and everything that is holy
Everything that’s sacred
Excuse my being late
I was locked up with a gate
And with a key in the shade
I defeat the taint, I take it!

I have no need of shelter
All the river channel
I’m sick of the bitterness
I see the end of the tunnel
It will be the last journey

Shadow in the dark…

I wish she holds out her arm
But a wolf’s whining in the wood
From there an owl hooting
It’s no troubling me
I see the angels flying
Like the wise eagles
I believe in the marvels
Her immortal love rankles

Wait me darling!
I’m between life and death
Wait a minute!
I make for you at full pelt
I battled with me
Could you see it abbey?
Every god and everything that is holy
Every sky and ever worthy
I have found me.

I wish she holds out her arm
But a wolf’s whining in the wood
From there an owl hooting
It’s no troubling me…

beautiful words/images White of High

Bren!
Thanks the words and thanks your help!

The lines wanna be them:
In my memories the lies are tinklin'
and bringing to mind her face

So, is it clear?

It makes more sense like that, White

well done white of high :lol: they are very good.

White, you're talented. You've written some great lyrics.

Thanks the good words!
But I need a band who would play them!
And here is the next after Jim Steinman! It sounds well like a speech...

So Many Suffering

The bleeding sun shines on the sky
It’s might will pulverized with lightning
And the Mount Everest grows dark
Up there demons ~~~~~~~s’ are flying
But the rambling does the right thing

He springs onto the Harley
Rumbles its voice
And open a way to heaven
Aim high, but he’s denied the doors

Evil intention's on the graves
The crucifix is pierced with a bloody sword
And magic symbols with some braves
Say one’s prayers to a willing lord

The heroes swear to do the memories
And make a promise for the dying men
That fight for peace
If it must he’ll try again and again

The modern knight with diamond-light blade
Says jinx to hell’s messengers
Harmful ghosts are laughing heartily
Loudly like a rifle with two chambers

An eddy rips away the motorcycle
Tumble and tumble in deep
And run down his life
The evil powers reap and reap

Indian’s and Harley’s soul join on clouds
Whereas the bodies are lifeless
But the stars are raising from the dead
And the heart under the ribs ain’t homeless

Oh heart, slave of Victory
Peace is your territory
Truth has been proved with history
But the Vicious lives here in us neighborhood

The wood’s burning under the Moon
But Forbidden Tree’s in flame
And a serpent like a torch
Whom the icefield can tame
The death held mirror before the demons
Needless every weapons
The dark does away with itself
Throw into the deep abyss off rockshelf

And only see now
That how sensitive it’s been
Under the land lie low
It will be there very keen

Oh hero, you are divinity
Descended to join us from the sky
Fettered the Evil
You’ll never rob us soul on the sly
So many skeletons amputated the past
So many skulls smile into the future
So many hearts sleep the sleep of the just
So many bloods were shedded by like a shooter
So many suffering are a must?

The Devil’s already in the last repose
Adam and Eve would try again because
the peace entered the lists
Thank you! – the champion of justice

Remember! Resurrection’s eternal…

White of High you are amazing!!!!

these are all wonderful! i wish i had your talent at this. you are definately gifted, to be able to sculpt words like this is truely magic!!!!

Good White Of High, but i personally prefer,The Silent Man and Shadow In The Dark.
