vocari dei

Pain of salvation'un 2004 çıkışlı be albümünün 8. şarkısıdır. "I dont ask you to save me, i just want you to speak to me" cümlesi ile insanı sorgulamaya iter, boğazı düğümler, grubun ne kadar aşmış olduğunu bu 3 buçuk dakikalık şarkı ile bir kez daha bize kanıtlar.

(bkz: Sözlerini de yazayım tam olsun)

“I just want you to speak to me...

“I'm still waiting for you God; I pray because this has to be finished.
Goodbye, God. Goodbye to you all.”

“I don't trust in any Gods. I don't know who God is, but I know what God should be...”

“Oh, take a look here, take a good look at what you've created!”

“Hi, God. This is Lorenzo, and I want to ask you something:
Why life is so hard? Why love is so cruel? Why I can't really be me? Not someone else, just want to be me...

Hey, God. It's Fiambio. I just call to thank you for being with me when life seems to fall apart.
You carried me through my darkest hours and I'm very grateful for that. Thank you...

"Hi, God. It's me, from Earth.
I know you haven't returned any of my previous call,
but maybe you were simply not there.
But here it goes again: I want to thank you for giving me the opportunity to be part of this world.
But didn't you also give us people the mind to pursue and question?
So...where are you? And where’ve you been when we needed you the most?

"It's funny speaking.
I must be drunk or far away,
for I no longer believe in you anymore.
So I thought you are non-existent.
‘Cause I figured this out.
For all the harm and the grieving
that you bring into this world…
either you're a cruel entity for not changing things,
or you don't exist."

"Please tell me why these horrible things happen!
Why did those two towers have to fall,
and how can you let it happen?
Does there have to be such hatred in this world?
Why must society struggle so hard for tolerance?"

"I prayed every day for weeks now. Why won't you answer my prayers?
Prove to me and so many others why I should continue to pray.
I have faith in my friends and my family, isn't that enough?"

"Hello... Hello?
Hmmm...
Shinjiteru?
Shinjiteitai?"

"Please God, if you exist,
help me believe that the world is real,
that I am real,
and that everything is real.
That we are more than just a coincidence."

"This world is what we can give."

"Speak to me.
I won't ask you to save me.
I just want you to speak to me."

"Hey...Did I apologize to you for...you know...
I just want to say I'm sorry and...thank you.
Oh! And only one more thing:
Please, help me fly."

"Please God, take me away from here.
I can't take anymore.
They're always devouring me...
I'm so lost.
I'm so lost...
God?"

"Kamisama-san
Naze sensou?
Naze shi?
Naze kiga?
Naniwodesuka?
Omaeha naniwotameniiru?
Sayonara."

"Hello, God.
I wonder...what are we?
What's our importance in this world?
Where are we going to?"

"Uhh...
Yeah, uhh... listen God...umm...
I just want to say
a really big thank-you on behalf of...uhh, everybody.
And...thanks for getting the whole thing started
and...for getting it off the ground, but...
I think that this time, we have really screwed things up,
and I am so, so sorry."

"I need you now.
I need you."
