Try your hand with guessing some of my personal favorite lyrics... Just for fun, ya know. You can grade yourself, I s'pose, seeing as I might not be able to grade such a high amount of posts.
No cheating. Seriously, cheating = not cool.
Easy stuff:
1. "I lie awake and sweat, afraid to fall asleep
I see your face looking back at me..."
2. "On a small world west of wonder --
Somewhere, nowhere, all
There's a rainbow that will shimmer
When the summer falls..."
3. "Screams of pain in death descending
Rise again from hell, defending..."
4. "Whisper things into my brain
assuring me that I'm insane..."
5. "Waiting for my number
To climb upon the cross
Maybe they'll forget about me..."
6. "They tomb inspiration,
it's my obligation..."
7. "Maybe I'll be back some other day
To live again just who can say..."
8. "Spent your youth in reformaties
where your hate grew day by day..."
9. "A lifeless object for my subjection
An obsession beyond your imagination..."
10. "Born with a king's heart
But fate fooled me
And changed my cards..."
A little trickier now...
11. "Controlling the minds of the bloodthristy dead
Unholy seizure slicing through your head
Who will survive only time will tell
Dripping from your mouth comes a rancid smell..."
12. "The parades at the Red Square
Under threat everyone is smiling
From the divided states
Illegal movements under ground..."
13. "I came here to watch you bleed,
Oh how I love to gloat!
If you had any balls at all
You'd grab me by the throat..."
14. "Make sure your reach does not exceed your grasp
All that is to be done before you act
In a pact of invoking spirits from the past..."
15. "Been doing some thinking and I have an answer
To arrest the spreading cancer
Send you back to where you came from
Get the Smurf rid of you (sub)human scum..."
Deathly difficult
16. "Enigmatic longanimity of ruminent mass graves
Meritorious victory, into body-bags now scraped..."
17. "A vision of life
On television screens
An existence created
From empty dreams..."
18. "Gotta get out...
Out of here.
Cannot breathe...
With the stench of... fear!"
19. "Stay where you are, don't get consumed
By what they created from sheer neglect..."
20. "How dare thou cross the paths ov mine
And leave my fallen sons behind..."
Have fun... hehehe...
21. "Today she's done, today she's gone
Gently veiled in violent slumber..."
22. "You are stronger than the gods,
a warrior of flesh and blood..."
23. "Hear me and my calling,
Receive my prophecy..."
24. "We seek what is lost, and together, at last
We finally find what the pain is inside..."
25. "Skies are mad with thunder
With the lightning fire..."
26. "Don't fall as a hero
Die if you want to, but man you can count me out..."
27. "The bright light in her eyes
Could guide me through the darkest night..."
28. "He was the strongest,
He was determined to help the weak..."
29. "And then the night is falling
sepulchral the demon is calling..."
Nobody will get this. EVER.
30. "Famlade bland tankar,
min själ bedriven.
Urdriven var min broderhälft,
hörde nattens barn..."
Scoring --
0/30 You know nothing. Go curl into the fetal position in the corner,
for that's all you'll ever be good for.
1-5/30 You know nu metal, and perhaps a tiny bit of true metal. Still,
you should avert your gaze from true metal fans.
6-10/30 You know something, you just need to listen to more metal.
11-20/30 You have listened to metal a lot, but you focus on the more
popular stuff.
21-25/30 You are quite experienced. You know your metal well, but my
obscure tastes tripped you up.
26-29/30 You're damn good. You must listen to my iPod a lot, or you're
just a metal meister.
30/30 Either you cheated, or this is just me retaking my own test.
So, yeah, just post the artist and song.
