    Lyrics: The Poet and The Pendulum
    [Part 1: White Lands Of Empathica]
    The end
    The songwriter's dead
    The blade fell upon him
    Taking him to the white lands
    Of empathica
    Of innocence
    Empathica
    Innocence
    [Part 2: Home]
    The dreamer and the wine
    Poet without a rhyme
    A widow writer torn apart by chains of Hell
    One last perfect verse
    It's still the same old song
    Oh Christ, how I hate what I have become
    Take me home
    [Chorus:]
    Get away, run away, fly away
    Lead me astray to dreamer's hideaway
    I cannot cry cause the shoulder cries more
    I cannot die, I, a whore for this cold world
    Forgive me
    I have but two faces
    One for the world
    One for God
    Save me
    I cannot cry cause the shoulder cries more
    I cannot die, I, a whore for this cold world
    My home was there and then, those meadows of heaven
    Adventure-filled days
    One with every smiling face
    Please, no more words
    Thoughts from a severed head
    No more praise
    Tell me once my heart goes right
    Take me home
    [Chorus]
    Get away, run away, fly away
    Lead me astray to dreamer's hideaway
    I cannot cry cause the shoulder cries more
    I cannot die, I, a whore for this cold world
    Forgive me
    I have but two faces
    One for the world
    One for God
    Save me
    I cannot cry cause the shoulder cries more
    I cannot die, I, a whore for this cold world, a whore for this cold world, a whore for this cold world
    [Part 3: The Pacific]
    Sparkle my scenery
    With Turquoise waterfall
    With beauty underneath
    The ever free
    Tuck me in beneath the blue
    Beneath the Pain
    Beneath the rain
    Goodnight kiss for a child in time
    Swaying blade my lullaby
    On the shore we sat and hoped
    Under the same pale moon
    Whose guiding light chose you
    Chose you all
    "I'm afraid, I'm so afraid
    Being raped, again and again, and again
    I know I will die alone
    But loved
    You live long enough to hear the sounds of guns
    Long enough to find yourself screaming every night
    Live long enough to see your friends betray you
    For years I've been strapped unto this altar
    Now I only have three minutes and counting
    I just wish the tide would catch me first and give me
    A death I always longed for."
    [Part 4: Dark Passion Play]
    2nd robber to the right of Christ
    Cut in half - infanticide
    The world will rejoice today
    As the crows feast on the rotting poet
    Everyone must bury their own
    No pack to bury the heart of stone
    Now he`s home in hell, serves him well
    Slain by the bell, tolling for his farewell
    The morning dawned upon his altar
    Remains of the dark passion play
    Performed by his friends without shame
    Spitting on his grave as they came
    [Chorus]
    Get away, run away, fly away
    Lead me astray to dreamer's hideaway
    I cannot cry cause the shoulder cries more
    I cannot die, I, a whore for this cold world
    Forgive me
    I have but two faces
    One for the world
    One for God
    Save me
    I cannot cry cause the shoulder cries more
    I cannot die, I, a whore for this cold world, a whore for this cold world, a whore for this cold world
    "Today, in the year of our Lord, 2005
    Tuomas was called from the cares of the world
    He stopped crying at the end of each beautiful day
    The music he wrote had too long been without silence
    He was found naked and dead
    With a smile in his face, a pen and 1000 pages of erased text."
    Save me
    [Part 5: Mother And Father]
    Be still, my son
    You`re home
    Oh when did you become so cold?
    The blade will keep on descending
    All you need is to feel my love
    Search for beauty, find your shore
    Try to save them all, bleed no more
    You have such oceans within
    In the end, I will always love you
    The beginning

    This is the song that saved Tuomas life.. he went through a very hard time and he desided to take his life in this song and not in real life. The song is a true masterpiece.

      Indeed, you can clearly see how emotional he is at the end when everything is calming down in the song. I always get emotional when i listen to this song

    • @flashpeter625
      @flashpeter625 5 років тому +6

      Allegedly, Tuomas used to have his monitors muted during some parts of the song, because he could not listen to it.

    • @uncagedulfhedinn2525
      @uncagedulfhedinn2525 4 роки тому +3

      Another interesting thing to note is, the ending, much of that was in a letter written to tuomas from his mother. Those are her words.

    THE most intense Nightwish song! It has so much personal tragedy behind it. I really recommend you guys go through the lyrics, they give me the shivers and tears in my eyes every single time I listen to that song. It's true what someone else has mentioned below, Tuomas did say in interviews that this was his therapy after the events around Tarja's firing. If you go deep into the words, you'd find great, touching, even ground shaking lines. The song starts with "The end" and ends with "the beginning", to underline the cathartic experience the poet has. The dispear in "I cannot cry, 'cause the shoulder cries more" or "Tell me once my heart goes right". The words semi-whispered by the boy. The line "Now I only have 3 minutes and counting" after realising there's exactly 3 minutes until the poet's death in the song. And that heart when it stops beating... I could go on forever about this song and I would choose it any day over The Greatest Show on Earth! I just love when other people discover what a treasure Nightwish's music is! Next track you should check out: Song of Myself

    Did you know that the amount of time after she says 'Now I only have three minutes and counting' and the moment we hear the swing of the blade later in the song is EXACTLY 3 MINUTES! Tuomas! What a genius!

      @michaelvondrake7489 6 років тому +6

      Marco Nieddu right. Me too. Tarja fans who stopped listening to NIGHTWISH when Tarja departed will say Floor doesn't draw out the same emotion. I completely disagree with them. I think Floor draws out even More emotion.

    Actually here is fact about this song, Tuomas wrote this song after Tarja was fired and this song tells about the pain that Tuomas felt. In this song Tuomas kills himself so that he wouldnt need to die in real life. Hole song is about the pain, agony and torture that Tuomas had to experience. This is sad song but in same time so beautifull :(

      What a drama. He did it because he wanted to.

    • @FairsleyDifference
      @FairsleyDifference 5 років тому +2

      “Had” to experience? He broke his contractual and actual word to part amicably with Tarja after their tour by publishing an open letter in the press calling her a greedy fame whore and then tried to blackball her with everyone he knew in the industry.

    • @jariseppala9719
      @jariseppala9719 5 років тому +10

      @FairsleyDifference. Tuomas was the only one who didn't want to kick her. Marco self said, that he was first to say that he would leave, if TT stayed. So, instead to break the band, Tuomas agreed to kick her. But because Tuomas was considered to be the leader, he got all the shit on him. Mostly it was Tarja's husband to blame. He demanded more and more to Tarja. She didn't even use same transportation as the rest of the band. Instead she used private planes, on band's expense. Just one example. And Tarja said that she would leave after next record, anyway. So not much difference there.

  • @whysoserious86
    @whysoserious86 5 років тому +1

    Knowing how hard of a song this is for Tuomas to perform, and that they still did is pretty admirable. You can feel the pain in this song. That's what makes great music, when the songwriter pours their heart out into their music.

  • @DanasLilMakeup
    @DanasLilMakeup 5 років тому +1

    I remember I absolutely lost my shit when I heard this live in Mexico 3 years ago. I was crying my eyes out singing every word. Is such a beautiful sad and emotional song. Just pure perfection.

  • @TheWiseGrif
    @TheWiseGrif 6 років тому +9

    This song has a special place in my memory; in high school (over 8 years ago) I had to do an art project based on a song, and because of the length, complexity, and experience of this song i chose to use it.

  • @refixxxer
    @refixxxer 6 років тому +4

    O que mais me impressiona quando escuto a Floor é que as músicas do Nightwish não foram escritas para a voz dela, mas ela faz uma versão tão espetacular que na maioria das vezes ofusca a versão original. Eu amo essa mulher, trouxe nova vida ao Nightwish. Impossível não se apaixonar pela última parte dessa música.

  • @Piia2023

    This is a poetical musical and a storytelling of hard times of Tuomas having five sections of different moods and moments. One not only wonders the pain of Tuomas but the way how he puts all together. And yes they also "act" it well.

    Seeing as you froze to Floor's voice at 5 minutes or so, I think it's time for you to check another mighty Dutch sympho gothic metal band - Within Temptation. Ice Queen or Stand My Ground from Black Symphony DVD (Live in Rotterdam 2008)!
    I would say that Nightwish, Epica and Within Temptation make up the big 3 of the genre (even though Epica is a lot younger). The vocalist of Within Temptation, Sharon den Adel is easily one of the most magnetic female singers and live performers in metal.

    Thank you for playing this. One of my favourite NW songs and what a performance, especially Floor hauntingly singing the parts originally sung by a choir boy. I know I keep asking but PLEASE play Yours Is An Empty Hope next. It is darker, moodier and something a bit atypical for Nightwish so provides some contrast for NW Sunday! Floor growls a bit in it!

    Tuomas loves Vangelis(sp) and Hans Zimmer . He loves movie scores. I think it is a dream of his to write a score for a movie. You need read the lyrics. It will give you an idea of what is behind it.I really loved your reaction. This song makes me cry.............

    Tuomas wrote this song about himself, after Tarja left the band. He fell in deep depression and he didn't know, how about the future of Nightwish. When Tuomas wrote the first Nightwish album Dark Passion Play after Tarja's left, the band there had not singer. This album, Dark Passion Play literally saved Tuomas' life, it's because this album is the darkest, heaviest one from Nightwish. There in this album the heaviest song of Nightwish story Master Passion Greed. Tuomas dedicated this song to Tarja's husband, whom Tuomas blamed for Tarja's left. They never played in concert this song, but it could be very strong live performance. Highly recommended song for you guys! Here's the link: ua-cam.com/video/wS7NrPNjACI/v-deo.html

    • @matheusdelacela3195
      @matheusdelacela3195 6 років тому +1

      They never performed Master Passion Greed live due to the lawsuit Tarja's husband put against them. The song is nothing but a fruit of pure hate and jealousy. So is Bye Bye Beautiful. Well, if you want to hear the other side, you'll have a lot of Tarja's songs too. Enough, Dark Star, Love To Hate, Diva and some others, people would say...

      Well, she was after all fired. She didn't leave the band.

    • @matheusdelacela3195
      @matheusdelacela3195 6 років тому +1

      Robert Lundkvist she was given the blessing of leaving before whar she expected. It was a bad surprise at the time but ended up as something good for her and not so good for them.

    • @T1hitsTheHighestNote
      @T1hitsTheHighestNote 6 років тому +3

      Well, she was a diva and a douche with her heart elsewehere. According to the open letter from the other four, she had told Toumas that she would only record one more album with them and then only limited touring. So they couldn't work together under those circumstances. As Toumas wrote in the letter: "I can't simply write any more songs for you to sing."
      So they fired her.

      @matheusdelacela3195 6 років тому +2

      Robert Lundkvist do you really believe everything they said? They were so much of cowards that couldn't even say that to her face. And did the same to Anette when she was pregnant and ill in a hospital in the US. They just e-mailed her telling she was out and called Floor to sing with them. I don't give them any trust at all after this. I don't believe that Tarja was not guilty because she talked about all the fights they had and about how they treated the singers. They were cursing her at the studio at the Oceanborn recordings and they made her record the vocals without her approval. And many many problems after that om touring and etc. And they did it again. Tarja was the face and the fame of the band. They worked well on a fairytale of lies so her image would be damaged with the departure, and not theirs. They were an awesome band with a unique sound and feeling that time. It's a pity that everything went like this... :(

    You should check Marco's own band Tarot (Pyre of gods, Wings of Darkness, Ashes To The Stars). Also did you know that back in the day when Bruce Dickinson left Iron Maiden Marco send Tarot's lates album at the time to get singers post. And it was rumored that he was one of the top singers that were considered but the band went with Blaze Bayley.

    This song is sensational ... Well, Floor Jansen right ?! No comments. The cheap of this song are the different contrasts in both melody and vocals (and Floor with the main characteristic of it: versatility in the vocal, gave an "up" in the song)
    I suggest you listen to "Disdain - ReVamp", there you will see the versatility of the voice of Floor Jansen. That's awesome!
    Anyway, I love your videos. Congrats!

    I know this is an older video, but I just watched it and totally understand where you're coming from Pedro. Live performances can make/break a band for sure! I saw Epica rather incidentally last year (I only went to see one of the opening acts) and I was not into Symphonic Metal at all. I had listened to some of their tracks on Spotify since I was going to the show, and honestly I wasn't that impressed with the studio stuff. After Myrkur played we figured we'd have a drink and check out a few Epica songs before heading out early to beat traffic... but we ended up staying for the whole show because they are a fucking amazing live band! Now, I'm a fan... and I'm also much more open-minded about the genre as well.
