Decades
Theatre Of Tragedy
(A Rose For A Dead)
Here are the young men,
a weight on their shoulders
Here are the young men,
well where have they been?
We knocked on the doors
of hell's darker chambers
Pushed to the limits
we dragged ourselves in
Watched from the wings as
the scenes were replaying
We saw ourselves now as
we never have seen
Portrayal of the traumas and degeneration
The sorrows we suffered
and never were freed
Where have they been (4)
Weary inside, now our heats
lost forever
Can't replace the fear
or the thrill of the chase
These rituals showed up the door
for our wanderings
Opened and shut, then slammed
in our face
Where have they been (4)

Theatre of Tragedy is a Norwegian band from Stavanger, formed in 1993 and known for its early albums that significantly influenced the gothic metal genre. The group used a vocal contrast between male bass vocals (occasionally using death growls) and female soprano singing (commonly referred to as "Beauty and the Beast" vocals). In the first three albums, lyrics were predominantly written in Early Modern English. Starting with the album *Musique*, Theatre of Tragedy underwent drastic changes in style, becoming significantly influenced by industrial rock, abandoning Early Modern English writing and death growls in the process. The band split on October 2nd, 2010, after 17 years.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
