Torn

I'm walking through fields of the fallen alone in silence
I'm praising their courage and envy their loss
My steps leaves marks of another forsaken soul
My choices might haunt me forever
Until I'm gone

With so much lost in anger
Too much built-up fear and all these thoughts collididing
Making my wounds seem fatal
Pushing my head under water
Making me tired and Torn
If only things were different, only things were different

My soul and my inside's been couloured
and there is no silence
Not distant from courage I'm wearing the loss
My eyes sees the dawn of another horizon
My battle it rages forever

With so much lost in anger
Too much built-up fear and all these thoughts collididing
Making my wounds seem fatal
Pushing my head under water
Making me tired and Torn
If only things were different,
If only things were brought to me in a different shade
Shown to me so that I could relate
Lock all doors that would make me stray
and offer me a brand new day.
Never claimed to be someone I'm not
and always feared to be forgotten
So led astray that I lost all worth
So Torn by wounds in a world of hurt

---------------As I have stated before, I love music that prety much oozes emotion from every musical note and lyric. Dark, yeah but something about it is just.....I don't know. hits home at times. This is probably my favorite song off the new album....though the track These Scars has I think the most beautiful part in it. Which is a female vocalists solo. That solo in the middle of a metal/hard rock song just makes me stop and just appreciate. The huge contrast in the music and how well if flows is something that I admire about Evergrey. A Swedish metal band with a string quartet and vocal chorus coupled with beautiful female vocals......just won't hear it on the radio here in the states.

It is amazing how music can sum up your emotions, and to make you feel pleasure and pain. It brings thoughts to the forefront, and electrifies your emotions.
