Letra de Larger Than Life - Sonata Arctica
Letra de canci�n de Larger Than Life de Sonata Arctica lyrics
I climb up on the stage
Wearing an old man's face
I've 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, that's what I am!
I am a goddamn Peter Pan, man!
But the one palace I won't grow up in
Staged a broken leg deep in my grave"
When life becomes a play and I don't know the role
I'm cast it's all wrong but 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 in the role written
In a drunken haze, it seems, by Shakespeare in me
Stage, film and television,
Twenty-four seven on the scene, I'm
(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 I've 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 don't 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
Where nothing ever happens
Where nothing ever happens
I climb down from the stage
Remove the young man's face
And underneath reveal a sage
"Young man, you play my role
Breathe life into that soul
Prepare to live a thousand lives"
Now when you think it's all over, you find love
A flower starts to bloom, a chapter starts anew
The greatest moment in life
Mirror still lies, time is cruel, silent landslide
It builds you up within, destroys the shell you're in
And everything will fall into place
When life becomes a play
And I (you) don't know the role I'm (you're) cast
It's all wrong, but I (you) cannot
Escape before the curtain call
One last time, build yourself a wall to cry on,
For anybody to see
You will fall deeper in the role you wrote in a drunken
Haze, it seems, with Shakespeare within
Stage, film and television,
Twenty-four seven on the scene, I'm
(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...)
I lived half a century aboding deep in vanities
Am I now wise, when I've learned all the traits
Of a fool?
Wearing an old man's face
I've said those words a thousand times

To get here took its time, I forgot to make a life
