All I Need

Spent the weekend working on a song. Yup, I'm still going to be a rock star. Okay perhaps that's not really my scene, I'm a lot more mellow when I really think about it.

"All I Need" by Within Temptation is a lot closer to my kind of stuff. Funny I know considering personally I'd call the likes of Ozzy, Marilyn and Britney my major influences then again if you think of tracks such as "Dreamer", "Speed of Pain" and "Everytime" I guess that pretty much does sum up a lot of things.

I just love the lyrics, the music and overall arrangement of this one. Simple, but then again less really can be more.

I'm dying to catch my breath
Oh why don't i ever learn
I've lost all my trust though i've surely tried to
Turn it around

Can you still see the heart of me?
All my agony fades away
When you hold me in your embrace

Don't tear me down
For all i need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something I can believe
Don't tear me down
You've opened the door now
Don't let it close

I'm here on the edge again
I wish I could let it go
I know that I'm only one step away
From turning around

Can you still see the heart of me?
All my agony fades away
When you hold me in your embrace

Don't tear me down
For all i need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something I can believe
Don't tear it down
What's left of me
Make my heart a better place

I've tried many times but nothing was real
Make it fade away
Don't tear me down
I want to believe that this is for real
Save me from my fear
Don't tear me down

Don't tear me down
For all i need
Make my heart a better place

Don't tear me down
For all i need
Make my heart a better place
Give me something i can believe
Don't tear it down
What's left of me
Make my heart a better place
Make my heart a better place


Just looking for that better place.

  2. @ Irvin, thanks. Have to say this band really has grown on me and with Nightwish have to be one of my current faves.
