Koji Vam je omiljeni tekst pesme?

['30 years ago, society believed that no price was too high, we thought that industry could come at any cost. We cannot afford to pay that price any more.']

So finally my journey ends.
And through this wound
my soul can mend.
Guilt is my blood,
I'm being drained.
This is my home,
I will stay... inside!

There's always someone inside
Fighting to get outside.
The knowing-right-from-wrong side
Our home is inside!

I've traveled the world around
In search for some Grail of mine
How could I be so blind?
It was always here inside
I have only some weeks to give
But at last... I live

Life's just a line of situations
A matter of occasions
And mystic correlations
The work of a Machine!

Here in a world split to nations
We fail to see the relations
Between the Wheel and the Machine
And of the scars we're leaving...

...inside!
I swear there's someone inside
Fighting to get outside
Just give it all an hour
By the Concrete Lake!

['I dread the day my children will ask me why. I dread the day when I will have to explain to them that people thought it was acceptable to destroy the environment so that we could have jobs. I dread the day I will have to explain to my bright-eyed Joshua, who talks to dogs and listens to the grass screaming, that we were all too busy driving fast cars, rushing our children off to day-care, and finding seniors' homes to our grandparents and listening to the ringing of cash registers.

We were all too busy to hear the grass screaming.']

Sveti bes
Marchelo

Njen duh je slobodan
sa drugom decom
rucicama od blata
zeli da dohvati sunce
i zagrli k'o brata

Ono joj sapuce tajne
o zemlji iza ogledala
ako u bajku verujes
nije se uzalud ispredela
duga je tvoja pruga

S druge strane
ceka vise od cupa
tvoje oci su krila
vode te svuda
dodirni dlanom grudi

Nije to srce sto kuca, ne
to snovi stidljivo
kuckaju spolja
da ih pustis unutra
tvoji prsti su kistovi

Oboji ljude sto se boje
da kroz temperament
od crne tempere
udahnu polen i
ponovo se rode

Tad ce imati pogled voden
oprosti im, nacrtat' ces
sebi osmeh opet

Hiljade svitaca u ovoj
veceri su tvoji fenjeri
tako je lako leteti kad dete si
nek' lebde sni
preko zaspalih ulica

Kisna muzika nocas bira
da budes ta
s notama rosnim u kosi
navuci kostim od tila
i vec si plava vila

Pogledom ozivljavas lutka
sledeceg sekunda
tvoj meda ti kaze
cekao sam te, vodim te
gde ne znaju jecaje

Skok visoko iznad krova
eto vas na repu zvezde
on sapicom cepa nebo
kud' me vodis, medo
ne vidim te, ludice

Oblaka pune trepavice
stani, vidim zeravice
il' to ljudima svetli lice
stotine, stotine ljudi
leti ka nama

Na celu povorke
ono su tata i mama
poput vetra laka
koktel smeha i placa
koraca ka njima

Blistava kakva nikad nije bila
i sad im prasta sto su otisli
ovde je toliko lepse
sve je od srece i pesme
al' odjednom, sve se trese

Iza planina, pomalja se
ruzna glava dzina
svi ljudi oko nje postaju
ljudi od dima i nestaju
ostaje sama

I tad u licu zlog dzina
prepoznaju lice svog strica
i na komade puca slika

Staklici razbijene maste
zarivaju se u oci
peku je i najzad vidi
isto sto i svake noci
ogromno telo nad njom

Dahtanje s mirisom rakije
hrapavi jezik od kojeg
se jezi a svuda je
lepljivi znoj i bol
ta stvar, mac sto sece
sve cedno u njoj

Prljavi prsti u njenim ustima
drhtaj u butinama
ona vristi u sebi
rucicu pruza ka medi
al' hoce li je cuti sada

Od suza ga ne vidi jasno
a tako strasno boli je
uzmi me medo
medice moj, vodi me
molim te

Al' nemi lutak ravnodusno
gleda staklenim ocima
srce se izgubilo ispod plisa
utonulo u nista

O zidovi dobuju samo
stricevi uzdasi i kisa
i noc je gluva
i sve od spolja guta tisina

Refren
Sveti bes, moje sve
moj bol, moj celi svet
sveti bes i sta je greh
posle il' pre
po svoje vraca se

Pedeset mu je godina
dok napolju oluja besni
sedi u fotelji
lista knjigu, sad je
na pesmi gavran

U pesmi pominje se samac
zamah krila i noc
zloslutna ptica sto
je samcu jedini gost

Noc kao ova, samac kao on
ali gavran, gavran samo
je u pesmi toj
samo ludost, to
stvarno ne moze biti ma, ne

Prijatno pucketa kamin
on nastavlja vino piti
u taj cas, zakuca neko
covek se strese
magla mu je nekog dovela

K'o gavrana iz pesme
premda za drustvom ne cezne
ipak otvara vrata
i pred njima ugleda mladica
satkanog od mraka

Crni mantil, duga kosa
tamne oci i bes
te oci koje mu se zabadaju
ravno u svest
on htede nesto da kaze

Al' mu zafalise reci tad
sevnu munja, kad
i mladiceva pesnica
jos jedna, pa jos jedna
covek se nadje na podu

Dok skupa s mladicem
jeza i tama usetase u sobu
covek na sebi oseti nogu
i pogled s visine
i tada bespomocno kriknu

Ti, prokleti kurvin sine
i to bese varnica
strela u mladicevo srce
ko zna zasto, on vrisnu
i navali coveka da tuce

Krvnicki, demonski
bez milosti, cime i gde stigne
covek pljuje krv
urlici se gube ispod cizme
onog trena kad mu
nasloni pistolj na slepocnicu

Covek shvati da mladic
nema kocnicu i da je kraj
dok kaslje sopstvene zube
pokusava da pita zasto
al' mladic progovori
sam i bese jasno

Kako ti se svidja da budes
s ove strane straha
tebi, koji si sejao strah
kako ti je sada
da li ti se vrti film

Sve sekvence kad je mucis
i kadar kad ti je dosadila
pa je vise ne zelis u kuci
slika nje same na ulici
dok je slomljeno nebo lilo

Ti, ti bednice ne znas
sta je posle bilo
nisam ja kurvin sin
ja sam sin stotine bednika
takvih poput tebe

Sto su joj bili nada jedina
da nekako izdrzava sebe
a potom i sina
za sitan novac
zenska toplina uz
casu jeftinog vina

Na kraju je dokusurila sida
al' ima i veci bol
da se rodis sa sidom
ajde zamisli to
rodio sam se sa hiv-om

Al' cu umreti s osmehom
ovo je tvoj kraj
ti zavrsavas mojom osvetom
tupo klik, tajac
pa jedan urlik u prazno

Kao sto je i pistolj
bio prazan, smesi
se mladic u tamnom
sad si samo senka jadnice
nisavan pred strahom

Dzelat tebi necu
biti ja vec zivot
zvaces ga kaznom
i tad na svetlu blesnu
igla sa sprica

Sto ga lagano izvuce
iz dzepa mladic mracnog lica
zari ga sebi u venu
i bez zurbe istoci sok mrznje
kapi svetog besa
sto njime oduvek struje

Sablasno se osmehnu
napolju sevnu
on mu zabi spric u vrat
ubrizga svoju krv
i to bese sah-mat

Mladic otseta u mrak
i ostase samo uzdasi strica
al' noc je gluva
i sve od spolja guta tisina

Refren 3x

As he stood and tried in vain
to find justification
this cannot bloom in me for longer
with old desires getting stronger

another man was passing by
and for a glimpse in strangely seemed
that they were known to one another
in spite of being contradictory

A cloud-like shimmering appearance
he raised his voice began to speak
Your existence drowns in failure
into a suffering decay

Pale accumulating letters
stuttering relief
Last time standing kid
and better take advantage of

Do not shiver in your sanity-at least you got emotions
do not shiver in insanity-at least you got emotions devotions

Are you a wiseman or a prophet
that you can judge and turn the key
I never caused your intuition
thus it was bound to your deceit

the only reason for existence
of the question why-
learn to cope with rare conditions
you didn’t even know before

Do not shiver in your sanity-at least you got emotions
do not shiver in insanity-at least you got emotions devotions

Glued to life he tried in vain
reduced-the essence of his body
entering slowly smooth declare
a magnificent new sphere

Propaganda death ensemble
Burial to be
Corpses rotting through the night
In blood laced misery
Scorched earth the policy
The reason for the singe
The pendulum it shaves the blade
The strafing air blood raid

Infiltration push reserves
Encircle the front llines
Supreme art of strategy
Playing on the minds
Bombard till submission
Take all to their graves
Indication of triumph
The number that are dead

Sport the war, war support
The sport is war, total war
When victory's a massacre really massacre
When victory's a massacre really survival
The final swing is not a drill
It's how many people I can kill

Sport the war, war support
The sport is war, total war
When victory's a massacre really massacre
When victory's a massacre really survival
The final swing is not a drill
It's how many people I can kill

Be dead friend from above
When darkness falls
Descend into my sights
Your fallen walls
Spearhead break through the lines
Flanked all around
Soldiers of attrition
Forward their ground
Gregime prophetic age
Old in its time
Flowing veins run on through
Deep in the rhine
Center of the web
All battles scored
What is our war crimes
(era forever more...war)

Propaganda war ensemble
Burial to be
Bones shining in the night
In blood laced misery
Campaign of elimination
Twisted psychology
When victory is to survive
And death is defeat

Sport the war, war support
The sport is total war
When victorys a massacre
When victory is survival
When this end is a slaughter
The final swing is not a drill
Its how many people I can kill
 
anna vissi everything:


Lyrics: Anna Vissi

I can hear my heart breaking
As I open the door
I can feel the tears
On my face burn like fire
As I look in your eyes
And I know
I'm still in love with…

Everything I hate
Everything you do
Everything I fear
Everything on you

I can feel my life ending
As a whisper goodbye
And I know
I'm still in love with…

Everything I hate
Everything you do
Everything I fear
Everything on you

I can’t believe I still need you
I can’t believe I still want you
I can’t believe life means
Nothing without you
Baby I'm still in love with…

Everything I hate
Everything you do
Everything I fear
Everything on you

I’m in love with…

Everything you are
 
IN THE END


It starts with one thing
I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try, keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It's so unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on, but didn't even know
Wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when

[chorus:]
I tried so hard
And got so far
but in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
but in the end
It doesn't even matter

One thing, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try, keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme, to remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I'm surprised it got so (far)
Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me (in the end)
You kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when I

[Chorus]
I tried so hard
And got so far
but in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
but in the end
It doesn't even matter

I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this
There's only one thing you should know

I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this
There's only one thing you should know

[Chorus]
I tried so hard
And got so far
but in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
but in the end
It doesn't even matter
 
Iron Maiden - Hallowed Be Thy Name

Im waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime
Reflecting on my past life and it doesnt have much time
Cos at 5 oclock they take me to the gallows pole
The sands of time for me are running low

When the priest comes to read me the last rites
I take a look through the bars at the last sights
Of a world that has gone very wrong for me

Can it be theres some sort of error
Hard to stop the surmounting terror
Is it really the end not some crazy dream

Somebody please tell me that Im dreaming
Its not so easy to stop from screaming
But words escape me when I try to speak
Tears they flow but why am I crying
After all I am not afraid of dying
Dont believe that there is never an end

As the guards march me out to the courtyard
Someone calls from a cell God be with you
If theres a God then why has he let me die?

As I walk all my life drifts before me
And though the end is near Im not sorry
Catch my soul cos its willing to fly away

Mark my words please believe my soul lives on
Please dont worry now that I have gone
Ive gone beyond to see the truth

When you know that your time is close at hand
Maybe then youll begin to understand
Life down there is just a strange illusion.
 
The Pentagram

[Lyrics are taken from the poem by Aleister Crowley]

in the years of the primal course,
in the dawn of terrestrial birth,
Man mastered the mammoth and horse,
and Man was the Lord of the Earth.

He made him an hollow skin
From the heart of an holy tree,
He compassed the earth therein,
And Man was the Lord of the Sea.

He controlled the vigour of steam,
He harnessed the lightning for hire;
He drove the celestial team,
And man was the Lord of the Fire.

Deep-mouthed from their thrones deep-seated,
The choirs of the aeons declare
The last of the demons defeated,
For Man is the Lord of the Air.

Arise, O Man, in thy strength!
The kingdom is thine to inherit,
'Til the high Gods witness at length
that Man is the Lord of his Spirit.
 
Tool-10,000 Days(Wings Pt.2)

Listen to the tales and romanticize,
How we'd follow the path of the hero.
Boast about the day when the rivers overrun.
How we rise to the height of our halo.

Listen to the tales as we all rationalize
Our way into the arms of the savior,
Feigning all the trials and the tribulations;
None of us have actually been there.
Not like you.

Ignorant siblings in the congregation
Gather around spewing sympathy,
Spare me.
None of them can even hold a candle up to you.
Blinded by choice, these hypocrites won't see.

But, enough about the collective Judas.
Who could deny you were the one who
Illuminated your little piece of the divine?

And this little light of mine, a gift you passed on to me;
I'm gonna let it shine to guide you safely on your way,
Your way home ...

Oh, what are they going to do when the lights go down
Without you to guide them all to Zion?
What are they going to do when the rivers overrun
Other than tremble incessantly?

High is the way, but all eyes are upon the ground.
You were the light and the way they'll only read about.
I only pray, Heaven knows when to lift you out.
Ten thousand days in the fire is long enough;
You're going home.

You're the only one who can hold your head up high,
Shake your fists at the gates saying:
"I've come home now!
Fetch me the spirit, the son, and the father.
Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended.
It's time now!
My time now!
Give me my, give me my wings!"

You are the light and way that they will only read about.

Set as I am in my ways and my arrogance,
(With the) burden of proof tossed upon the believers.
You were my witness, my eyes, my evidence,
Judith Marie, unconditional one.

Daylight dims leaving cold fluorescents.
Difficult to see you in this light.
Please forgive this bold suggestion, but
Should you see your Maker's face tonight,
Look Him in the eye, look Him in the eye, and tell Him:
"I never lived a lie, never took a life, but surely saved one.
Hallelujah, it's time for you to bring me home."
 
Ritam Nereda-Ne!

Sa ovim ljudima ti nemaš ništa
Jer odavno su te prodali
Svi oni rastu jako brzo
I onda smešan si im ti
Ceo svet se pokreće brzo
A ti stojiš snažno k'o pre
Oni neće shvatiti nikad
Zašto ćes uvek reći ne!

Ne!Ne,ja neću postati novi
Ja ću uvek biti k'o pre
Ja svoj ponos prodati neću
Ja ću uvek reći ne!

Sa ovim ljudima ti nemaš ništa
Jer prodali su svoje sne
Svi su oni prerasli tebe
A ti si ostao isti k'o pre
I dok sediš sa flašom u ruci
Lome ti se misli sve
Ipak shvataš da oni ne žele
Da budu isti kao pre

Ne!Ne,ja neću postati novi
Ja ću uvek biti k'o pre
Ja svoj ponos prodati neću
Ja ću uvek reći ne!
 
I Want Out
by Sonata Arctica


From our lives' beginning on
we are pushed in little forms
no one asks us how we like to be
in school they teach you what to think
but everyone says different things
but they're all convinced that
they're the ones to see


So they keep talking and they never stop
and at a certain point you give it up
so the only thing that's left to think is this


I want out
To live my life alone
I want out
Leave me be
I want out
To do things on my own
I want out
To live my life and to be free


People tell me A and B
they tell me how I have to see
things that I have seen already clear
so they push me then from side to side
they're pushing me from black to white
they're pushing 'til there's nothing more to hear


But don't push me to the maximum
shut your mouth and take it home
'cause I decide the way things gonna be


I want out
To live my life alone
I want out
Leave me be
I want out
To do things on my own
I want out
To live my life and to be free


There's a million ways to see the things in life
a million ways to be the fool
in the end of it, none of us is right
sometimes we need to be alone


No no no, leave me alone
I want out
To live my life alone
I want out
Leave me be
I want out
To do things on my own
I want out
To live my life and to be free
 
Nije teško...
Neki cudni zvuci
Muzika i more
Dolaze iz sveta
Realnog i tvojeg

Afrodita nisi
Rodjena si tu
Ikonama raskos
Odnijela si svu

Ti si kao masina
Svemu tamnis sjaj
Ljudima si strana
Lazima si kraj

Dolazis i nestajes
Ako sam ti drag
Dodirima svojim
Ostavi mi trag

Ambrozijom svetom
Napit cemo tijela
Borit se u strasti
Radi sto si htjela

Ti si kao masina
Svemu tamnis sjaj
Ljudima si strana
Lazima si kraj

Po tvojoj kozi
Ostavit cu trag
Istinu o meni
Saznati ces sad

And when He Falleth

[Play by Raymond, Music by Theatre of Tragedy & Pål Bjåstad]

"Be my kin free fro varnal sin,
Bridle the thoughts of thy Master."
"There hath past away a glore fro the Earth;
A glore that in the hearts and minds of men,
Men dementéd - blindfoldéd by light,
Hourisheth as weed in their well-groom'd garths."

"Might I too was blindfoldéd ere,
"The quality of mercy and absolution,
Tho' years have master'd me
Whence cometh such qualities?
A masque of this to fashion:
Build thyself a mirror in which
Seer blest, thou best philosopher!"
Solely wanton images of thy desire appear!"

"'Tis the Divine Comedy -
"'Tis the Divine Tragedy -
The fool and the mocking court;
The fool and the mocking court;
Fool, kneel now, and ring thy bells!
Fool, kneel now, and ring thy bells!
We hold the Earth fro Heaven away."
Make us guffaw at thy futile follies,
Yet for our blunders - Oh, in shame;
Earth beareth no balm for mistakes -
We hold the Earth fro Hell away."

"Believe? In a deily long dead? -
I would rather be a pagan suckléd in creeds outworn;
Whith faärtytales fill'd up in head;
Thoughts of the Book stillborn."

"Shadow of annoyance -
Ne'er come hither!
...And when He falleth, He falleth like Lucifer,
Ne'er to ascend again..."

[ Dialog from "And when He Falleth" ]

[Male Voice]
That cross you wear around your neck;
is it only a decoration, or are you a
true Christian believer?

[Female Voice]
Yes, I believe - truly

Then I want you to remove it at once!
- and never to wear it within this castle
again! Do you know how a falcon is trained my
dear? Her eyes are sown shut. Blinded temporarily
she suffers the whims of her God patiently, until
her will is submerged and she learns to serve -
as your God taught and blinded you with
crosses.

You had me take off my cross because it
offended....

It offended no-one. No - it simply appears
to me to be discourteous to... to wear
the symbol of a deity long dead.

My ancestors tried to find it. And to open
the door that seperates us from our Creator.

But you need no doors to find God.
If you believe....
Believe?! If you believe you are gullible.
Can you look around this world and believe
in the goodness of a god who rules it?
Famine, Pestilence, War, Disease and Death!
They rule this world.

There is also love and life and hope.

Very little hope I assure you. No. If a god
of love and life ever did exist... he is long
since dead. Someone... something rules in his
place.

 
Look into my eyes, what do you see?
Cult of personality
I know your anger, i know your dreams
I've been everything you want to be
I'm the cult of personality
Like Mussolini and Kennedy
I'm the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

Neon lights, a Nobel prize
The mirror speaks, the reflection lies
You don't have to follow me
Only you can set me free
I sell the things you need to be
I'm the smiling face on your t.v.
I'm the cult of personality
I exploit you still you love me

I tell you one and one makes three
I'm the cult of personality
Like Joseph Stalin and Gandhi
I'm the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

Neon lights a Nobel prize
A leader speaks, that leader dies
You don't have to follow me
Only you can set you free

You gave me fortune
You gave me fame
You gave me power in your god's name
I'm every person you need to be
I'm the cult of personality
Look into my eyes, what do you see?
Cult of personality
I know your anger, I know your dreams
I've been everything you want to be
I'm the cult of personality
Like Mussolini and Kennedy
I'm the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

Neon lights, a Nobel prize
The mirror speaks, the reflection lies
You don't have to follow me
Only you can set me free
I sell the things you need to be
I'm the smiling face on your T.V.
I'm the cult of personality
I exploit you still you love me

I tell you one and one makes three
I'm the cult of personality
Like Joseph Stalin and Gandhi
I'm the cult of personality
Cult of personality
Cult of personality

Neon lights a Nobel prize
A leader speaks, that leader dies
You don't have to follow me
Only you can set you free

You gave me fortune
You gave me fame
You gave me power in your god's name
I'm every person you need to be
I'm the cult of personality
 
John Lennon- Working class hero

As soon as you're born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool
Till you're so ******* crazy you can't follow their rules
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years
Then they expect you to pick a career
When you can't really function you're so full of fear
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV
And you think you're so clever and classless and free
But you're still ******* peasants as far as I can see
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

There's room at the top they are telling you still
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill
If you want to be like the folks on the hill
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be

If you want to be a hero well just follow me
If you want to be a hero well just follow me
 
As I sat sadly by her side

As I sat sadly by her side
At the window through the glass
She stroked a kitten in her lap
And we watched the world as it fell past
Softly she spoke these words to me
And with brand new eyes, open wide
We pressed our faces to the glass
As I sat sadly by her side.

She said, 'Father, mother, sister, brother,
Uncle, aunt, nephew, niece,
Soldier, sailor, physician, labourer,
Actor, scientist, mechanic, priest,
Earth and moon and sun and stars
Planets and comets with tails blazing
All are there forever falling
Falling lovely and amazing.'

Then she smiled and turned to me
And waited for me to reply
Her hair was falling down her shoulders
As I sat sadly by her side.

As I sat sadly by her side
The kitten she did gently pass
Over to me and again we pressed
Our different faces to the glass
'That may be very well,' I said
'But watch that one falling in the street
See him gesture to his neighbours
See him trampled beneath their feet
All outward motion connects to nothing
For each is concerned with their immediate need
Witness the man reaching up from the gutter
See the other stumbling on who does not see.'

With trembling hand I turned toward her
And pushed the hair out of her eyes
The kitten jumped back to her lap
As I sat sadly by her side.

Then she drew the curtains down
And said, 'When will you ever learn
That what happens there beyond the glass
Is simply none of your concern?
God has given you but one heart
You are not a home for the hearts of your brothers
And God does not care for your benevolence
Anymore than he cares for the lack of it in others
Nor does he care for those who sit
At windows in judgement of the world He created
While sorrows pile up around him
Ugly, useless and over-inflated.'

At which she turned her head away
Great tears leaping from her eyes
I could not wipe the smile from my face
As I sat sadly by her side.
 
"Ruby Tuesday" - Rolling Stones

She would never say where she came from
Yesterday dont matter if its gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows
She comes and goes

Goodbye, ruby tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still Im gonna miss you...

Dont question why she needs to be so free
Shell tell you its the only way to be
She just cant be chained
To a life where nothings gained
And nothings lost
At such a cost

Theres no time to lose, I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams
And you will lose your mind.
Aint life unkind?

Goodbye, ruby tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still Im gonna miss you...
