Liedtext

I draw lines and mark where the rivers should bend
And trace out the roads that I'll never descend
A paper ocean, wrinkles and waves
Godlike intentions, but frozen in place
I chart constellations, connecting the stars
A galaxy born, as the ink leaves a mark 
The compass spins, but I’m stuck on this page
Set sail without movement, drifting in place
A pen in my hand, and the lines overflow
The tides keep on rising, but I’m stuck below
Ships passing by, they don’t notice me calling
I forget I’m in charge and that I’m the one stalling
The horizon stretches, but it never grows near
The winds whisper secrets I refuse to hear
When one map is finished, I start off anew
I’m dreaming up dreams that’ll never come true
I paint the shadows where the mountains once stood
And sketch every path that I’ll never pursue
A paper sky, the colors don’t blend
Lacking intention, a goal, or a plan
I’ve thought up journeys, a million so far
Though I’ve traced every line, there’s no path to embark
The ink dries slowly, it never runs out
A journey in drawings, but no steps to count
A pen in my hand, and the lines overflow
The tides keep on rising, but I’m stuck below
Ships passing by, they don’t notice me calling
I forget I’m in charge and that I’m the one stalling
The horizon stretches, but it never grows near
The winds whisper secrets I refuse to hear
When one map is finished, I start off anew
I’m dreaming up dreams that’ll never come true
These maps are a prison I created myself
I choose to stand still with no story to tell
A paper-thin world that easily tares
With intricate roads that lead me nowhere
A pen in my hand, and the lines overflow
The tides keep on rising, but I’m stuck below
Ships passing by, they don’t notice me calling
I forget I’m in charge and that I’m the one stalling
The horizon stretches, but it never grows near
The winds whisper secrets I refuse to hear
When one map is finished, I start off anew
I’m dreaming up dreams that’ll never come true
A pen in my hand, and the lines overflow
The tides keep on rising, but I’m stuck below
Ships passing by, they don’t notice me calling
I forget I’m in charge and that I’m the one stalling
The horizon stretches, but it never grows near
The winds whisper secrets I refuse to hear
When one map is finished, I start off anew
I’m dreaming up dreams that’ll never come true

Liedtextsprache

English

Emotional Analysis

The lyrics evoke a sense of melancholy, frustration, and introspection. There's a feeling of being trapped or stagnant despite a desire for exploration and adventure. The imagery of maps and paths represents dreams and aspirations that feel unattainable, leading to a poignant reflection on one's own limitations and choices.

Application Scenarios

This song is suitable for reflective moments, personal introspection, or quiet evenings. It can accompany activities like writing, reading, or simply contemplating life. The melancholic tone fits well in settings where one might be feeling lost or yearning for change.

Technical Analysis

The song features a slow tempo, emphasizing the reflective mood. Instrumentation likely includes acoustic guitar and possibly gentle strings or piano to complement the vocal delivery. The structure relies on repetition, particularly of the chorus, to reinforce the themes of stagnation and unfulfilled potential, allowing the listener to absorb the melancholic message.

Tiago

(Verso 1) Nas ruas vazias, onde o vento grita, Tiaguinho, o guerreiro, na luta se agita. Os tempos são difíceis, a noite é densa, Mas ele não para, sua força é imensa. (Verso 2) Nos olhos, um brilho que jamais se apaga, Nos passos, a coragem que a vida não traga. No peito, o peso de um mundo em ruínas, Mas Tiaguinho ressurge, mesmo nas esquinas. (Refrão) Tiaguinho, guerreiro da noite, No silêncio da guerra, sem perder a sorte. Nos olhos o fogo, no peito a dor, Mas ainda luta, com todo o seu amor. (Ponte) Na dor da perda, sua alma carrega, A mãe se foi, a dor não nega. O pai distante, nunca se aproximou, Mas Tiaguinho seguiu, nunca desistiu, lutou. (Verso 3) Lá no passado, quando moramos juntos, Acordávamos ao som de metal, tão profundos. Jogávamos RPG, lobisomens a caçar, Entre risadas e histórias, o tempo a passar. (Verso 4) Foram infinitas lembranças, mas o espaço é pequeno, Pelo tanto que ele significa, não cabe em um terreno. O que vivemos juntos, nenhum espaço vai medir, Porque Tiaguinho é mais do que se pode permitir. (Ponte 2) Em 2005, Curitiba a vibrar, No show do Stratovarius, a energia no ar. Entre guitarras e gritos, o sonho alcançado, Aquele momento, para sempre guardado. (Refrão) Tiaguinho, guerreiro da noite, No silêncio da guerra, sem perder a sorte. Nos olhos o fogo, no peito a dor, Mas ainda luta, com todo o seu amor. (Refrão Final) Tiaguinho, guerreiro da noite, No silêncio da guerra, sem perder a sorte. Nos olhos o fogo, no peito a dor, Mas ainda luta, com todo o seu amor.

With You Close

[Verse] Whispering secrets under starry skies Lost in your eyes like morning sunrise Every single heartbeat feels more alive Together we bloom like flowers in July [Verse 2] Holding your hand in a crowded street Our love a rhythm no one can beat Your gentle smile makes my heart skip In your embrace I find my sweet retreat [Chorus] With you close I'm never alone Your love's my melody setting the tone In your arms I've found my home With you close I'm never alone [Verse 3] Laughter echoing in moonlit nights In your presence everything's right Painting dreams in the canvas of our lives With your love my spirit thrives [Bridge] Through rain or shine we stand so strong Humming the lyrics of our own song No need for words when hearts align In this love Forever intertwined [Verse 4] Traveling roads where love stories grow Casting shadows with a soft glow Every moment our passion ignites In your arms I take flight

Dasarnya ya kemampuan untuk bisa menerima dan percaya. Pelan-pelan, dibangun bersama. Mungkin dalam beberapa keadaan akan terasa lamban, namun menitipkan rasa percaya untuk hal di luar kemampuan kita terkadang lebih baik daripada memaksakan selera pada titik yang tak seharusnya. Jika menunggu itu membosankan, orang yang tepat hanya butuh penyesuaian dalam batasan yang tak kau sadari. Tiba-tiba terjadi, dan kau yakini bahwa Ia adalah rumah yang tepat untuk kau singgahi. "Home it's not a place, it's feeling" jadi yaa, cocok-cocokan, selama diusahakan. Kita, dengan perpaduan selera dan dibantu oleh semesta, menciptakan tatanan yang nyaman untuk tahun-tahun kedepan.
