- Sonata Arctica Larger Than Life 歌詞
- Sonata Arctica
- Larger Than Life -Sonata Arctica
I climb up on the stage
Wearing an old mans face
Ive said those words a thousand times
I memorized the lines of Paris The Prince and Friar
I might one day play them too
To get here took its time I forgot to make a life
Between the scripted ones I knew
When admiration grew I was only loved by few
My true love and passion everyone knew
Hamlet in Lapland King Lear died in Vienna
Venice and Othello Madrid I am Henry the 8th
I am I am
We all shall one day become what we play
The marvelous magical bewildering array
Of trees and stones as we work our way up
To become these icons of lust and what not
''We live in the sin of self-indulgent larger than life
Yeah thats what I am
I am a goddamn Peter Pan maaaaaaan
But the one palace I wont grow up in
Staged a broken leg deep in my grave''
When life becomes a play and I dont know the role
Im cast its all wrong out I cannot escape before the
Curtain call
One last time build myself a wall to cry on
To hide in plain view
I will fall deeper into the role written
In a drunken haze it seems by the Shakespeare in me
Stage film and television
Twenty-four seven on the scene Im
Larger than life
Nightclubs cabarets spotlights never turn away now
Larger than life
The meaning of the fame is getting
Lesser by the day for me somehow
Larger than life
My friends all have families
Who now have their families
I lived half a century aboding deep in vanities
Am I now wise when Ive learned all the traits
Of a fool
The mirror now cries ageless mask fades to true life
To taste the immortal grace I lived the role I played
Alone in a golden cage
Life is what we make of it sometimes sometimes
Sometimes we just want to play
So dont take life so seriously
Play love have fun leave misery be
Regrets are built in a cold dark cage
Where nothing ever happens
Where nothing ever happens
So dont take life so seriously
Where nothing ever happens
Where nothing ever happens
Where nothing ever happens
I climb down from the stage
Remove the young mans face
And underneath reveal a sage
''Young man you play my role
Breath life into that soul
Prepare to live a thousand lives
Now when you think its all over you find love
A flower starts to bloom a chapter starts anew
The greatest moment in life
Mirror still lies times a cruel silent landslide
It builds you up within destroys the shell youre in
And everything will fall into place
When life becomes a play
And I dont know the role Im cast cast）
Its all wrong but I cannot
Escape before the curtain call
One last time build yourself a wall to cry on
For anybody to see
You will fall deeper into the role you wrote in a drunken
Haze it seems with the Shakespeare within
Stage film and television twenty four seven on the
On the scene Im
Larger than life
Nightclubs cabarets spotlights never turn away now
Larger than life
The meaning ofthe fame is getting
Lesser by the day for me somehow
Larger than life
I lived half a century aboding deep in vanities
Am I now wise when Ive learned all the traits
Of a fool
