Текст песни X Marks the Spot - Sonata Arctica
"I
was
in
a
really
dark
place.
I
even
thought
of
packing
it
in,
but
I
just
could
not
bring
myself
to
do
it.
I
met
an
old
friend
that
I
had
a
real
connection
with
And
he
saw
my
despair
He
asked
me
if
I'd
like
to
play
with
him
And
as
we
played
I
felt,
slowly
but
surely,
rock
'n
roll
grabbed
me
by
the
neck,
and
I,
well..."
You
are
a
man
of
impeccable
taste
And
you
know
when
the
X
marks
the
spot
We
all
need
a
map
for
the
trail
of
your
thought
Where
to
go,
well,
the
X
marks
the
spot
You
seem
to
have
a
misgiving
Hell
yeah,
you
make
a
living
Don't
add
bricks
to
what
we're
heaving
We
would
so
much
Rather
enjoy
the
beach,
beer
and
a
fire
You
think
something
somewhere
Has
a
copyright
for
the
world
And
you've
signed
where
the
X
marks
the
spot
You
join
a
cult,
fill
the
void
that
you've
got
Deep
within
where
the
X
marks
the
spot
There
you
stand
and
talk
and
holler
How
dark
are
all
your
colors
When
you
paint
another
sunrise
You
leave
out
the
sun
Birds
like
you
fly
straight
to
heaven,
heaven
Or
they
slowly
float
away
How
well
do
you
know
those
you're
calling
your
own?
I
mean...
come
on
dude!
(X
marks
the
spot)
Your
starving
soul
in
your
house
of
skin
and
bone
You're
an
island,
the
X
marks
the
spot
"Testify
children,
testify."
There
you
stand
and
talk
and
holler...
How
dark
are
all
your
colors
When
you
paint
another
sunrise
You
leave
out
the
sun
Birds
like
you
fly
straight
to
heaven,
heaven
Or
they
slowly
float
away...
Birds
like
you
fly
straight
to
heaven,
heaven
Or
they
slowly
float
away...
"Rock'n'roll
allowed
me
to
join
this
band
And
there
was
a
period
of
time
when
I
hadn't
exactly
lost
my
soul
I
just
didn't
know
where
I'd
put
it
And
I
ended
up
in
some
very
dark
places
and
some
dire
circumstances
Now
let
me
tell
you,
children,
I
was
trying
to
fill
a
void
in
my
heart
To
fill
that
void
I
got
what
I
always
wanted:
Success,
prosperity,
the
admiration
I
wanted
as
a
player
I
got
a
place
in
big
shows
and
travelled
the
world
from
end
to
end
And
the
next
of
it
all,
I
had
this
yearning
in
my
heart
Yearning
in
my
heart
for
rock'n'roll."
"I
was
called
to
join
this
band
And
I
was
surrounded
by
good
folks
there
and
servants
of
the
rock'n'roll
who
passed
on
the
love
I'll
testify:
the
fear
was
in
me,
I
was
afraid
of
everything
I
can
swear
I
saw
my
own
living
heart
beating
through
my
shirt."
You
are
a
circus,
but
where
is
the
clown?
There's
no
map,
still
the
X
marks
the
spot
There
you
stand
and
talk
and
holler...
How
dark
are
all
your
colors
When
you
paint
another
sunrise
You
leave
out
the
sun
Birds
like
you
fly
straight
to
heaven,
heaven
Or
they
slowly
float
down
into
the
night
with
senior
John
Barleycorn.
Heaven,
heaven
Or
they
slowly
float
away
"Now
you
children,
are
you
ready
to
spread
the
word?
Everybody
sing,
"Eo
– wohoho
– hey-hey
– wow-wow
– hey-hey
– hu?"
Birds
like
you
fly
straight
to
heaven,
heaven
Or
they
slowly
float
away...
Birds
like
you
fly
straight
to
heaven,
heaven
Or
they
slowly
float
away...
"And
the
funny
thing
was
I
was
like
a
spiritual
baby
running
around
with
diapers
on
where
the
X
marks
the
spot.
I'd
given
my
life
to
rock'n'roll
but
I
still
wasn't
sure
was
there
rock'n'roll?
Is
it
real?"
