INSANIA LYRICS

1. Praeparatus Supervivet

When I'm laying down to sleep, there's a feeling I can't help
I'm thinking of this world and all the horror
Well, I know for sure that darkness always seeks the light,
I'm waiting for the war and all the sorrow

Can you see the signs clear as I do?
Or did they trick your mind as well?

Binary numbers are the code of modern times
Seeking for a way to reach within our minds
When we lose our power and confusion is at hand,
The silent horse of Troy awaiting final commands

Can you see the signs clear as I do?
Or did they trick your mind as well?

You will know how far I will go
I've prepared all my life to survive the storm
Only the strong and prepared survive
I will never give up this fight

[Solo: Dahlin/Östros/Dahlin]

You will know how far I will go
I've prepared all my life to survive the storm
Only the strong and prepared survive
I will never give up this fight

You will know how far I will go
I've prepared all my life to survive the storm
Only the strong and prepared survive
It's now kill or be killed that goes down

2. Solur

Strike a pole into the ground, and make sure you see the sun
'Cause it will show you in which way to go
And where you're left out in the dark, you'll be surrounded by the stars
Let them tell you, You're never alone

Travel far, let the sundial show the way
It will never leave you astray

Raise your sails and you'll cross the mighty seas
Release the ravens and hope they won't return
Enter lands that you've never seen before
Let them fires burn

When you look upon the sky, – have you wondered why?
Why the stars, they are moving away
And when you pray to ancient gods, and they're all demanding blood
Can't you see they are not here to stay

Casting blood, searching glory to your name
But your whole world is about to change

Raise your sails and you'll cross the mighty seas
Release the ravens and hope they won't return
Enter lands that you've never seen before
Let them fires burn

[Solo: Dahlin/Both/Dahlin/Östros]

Travel far, let the sundial show the way
It will never leave you astray

Raise your sails and you'll cross the mighty seas
Release the ravens and hope they won't return
Enter lands that you've never seen before
Let them fires burn – Just make them burn

3. Prometheus Rise

Pro-Me-The-Us, Re-Surg-Emus Arise

Dark horizons are surrounding me
Lost in time I am reaching for the light
Long ago we could live from this earth
Now it's gone, we payed the ultimate price

We turn to powers from above
Will the titans hear – our cries from below

Prometheus rise, Prometheus rise
From the ashes we return, with fire in our eyes
Prometheus rise, Prometheus rise
Giving knowledge back to man, so we can rise again

Stars are shining, wind is in my hair
I can feel a presence growing near
Eternal fire paid with Eternal Pain
The titan's rise, brings Eternal Flame

We turn to powers from above
The titans heard – our cries from below

Prometheus rise, Prometheus rise
From the ashes we return, with fire in our eyes
Prometheus rise, Prometheus rise
Giving knowledge back to man, So we can rise again

[Solo: Dahlin/Östros]

Prometheus rise, Prometheus rise
From the ashes we return, with fire in our eyes
Prometheus rise, Prometheus rise
Giving knowledge back to man, so we can rise again

4. Moonlight Shadows

I gaze at the moon
I'm watching the frozen crystals gleaming in the sky
Time passes by,
Now we have to struggle with the cold to stay alive

We've burned our houses down, left nothing in behind
We haven't chosen this but war is what will come

In the moonlight shadows

We're standing in line,
My tears, they are freezing in my eyes before i cry
No sense of time,
Our minds, they are screaming with our hearts before we die

We're facing hell, but side by side we feel so strong
This is our legacy, our freedom will be won

In the moonlight shadows, our vision is divine
We might die side by side, to keep our land alive
Moonlight shadows, our shelter in the night
Remember us in time, and our cause – for what we fight
In the moonlight shadows

[Solo: Both/Dahlin/Östros]

In the moonlight shadows, our vision is divine
We might die side by side, to keep our land alive
Moonlight shadows, our shelter in the night
Remember us in time, and our cause – for what we fight
In the moonlight shadows

[Outro Suomi: Dahlin]

5. My Revelation

You don't have to love your life, but you will have to live along
Life goes up and life goes down, it doesn't have to mean it's wrong

'Cause every morning has its nights
Otherwise they won't look bright
But if you cry out for a while, it might get easier to smile

So – your life is bad, is that your calculation?
Then try to understand
You will cry and you will laugh depending on the situation
And what life has in its hands – that's my revelation

In the coolest winter nights, ice and snow reflects the light
If it's too dark, just close your eyes
It will for sure improve your sight

'Cause every morning has its nights
Otherwise they won't look bright
But if you cry out for a while, it might get easier to smile

Every peace will need its war,
So the hearts know what they're crying for
If you cry out for a while, it might get easier to smile

So – your life is bad, is that your calculation?
Then try to understand
You will cry and you will laugh depending on the situation
And what life has in its hands – that's my revelation

If you decide to end your life, you'll never see the heavens gate
You'll lose everything!
But if you choose to carry on, I'm sure the day will come,
When you will hear the angels sing – and they're singing

[Solo: Östros/Both/Östros/Both]

So – your life is bad, is that your calculation?
Then try to understand
You will cry and you will laugh depending on the situation
And what life has in its hands – that's my revelation

6. We Will Rise Again

Tell me did you listen to the stories – did you believe in one
They say we're buried in the shadows – that we are dead and gone

We understand that we have so much left that's still undone
We're rising from the ashes back into the light
And now we've set our minds to listen to the voice inside
We realize that have hymns to write

Now we are standing on the stairs up to the skies
And we will claim our place in heaven
We never lost belief 'cause music never dies
And like a fallen kingdom we will rise again

So now we visualize our dreams again – and we will treat them well
We have to answer to our legacy – no one will break out spell

A challenge greater yet a frontline that could win a war
We're rising from the abyss back into the light
We gathered forces, and we're stronger than we've been before
Now hear our voices, we have hymns to write

Now we are standing on the stairs up to the skies
And we will claim our place in heaven
We never lost belief 'cause music never dies
And like a fallen kingdom we will rise again

[Solo: Dahlin/Östros/ Interlude: Dahlin – Licks: Östros]

Now we are standing on the stairs up to the skies
And we will claim our place in heaven
We never lost belief 'cause music never dies
And like a fallen kingdom we will rise again

7. Like a Rising Star

You know when happiness is far away
When tears and anguish is your destiny
When there's no difference between night and day
You dedicate your life to agony

You live your life in madness
And the result is sadness – try to see
There are so many changes
This is your time to glance
Just let your mind brake free

You know when life just feels so down and low
When there's no light upon the sky
Then suddenly you're falling down below
And life is just not worth a try

You live your life in madness
And the result is sadness – Try to see
There are so many changes
This is your time to glance
Just let your mind brake free

Don't give in
Search inside and you will find a way to win
Please don't throw your life away, seize the night and day
Try and you'll get far – like a rising star

[Solo: Östros/Dahlin/Östros]

Don't give in
Search inside and you will find a way to win
Please don't throw your life away, seize the night and day
Try and you'll get far – like a rising star

You know when happiness is far away...

8. Blood, Tears and Agony

[Intro melodies: Östros]

Fate is calling, stop the crawling, it's time to brake free
Why don't you stand up and shout
This war is with or without you
There's no healing, when our planet is bleeding
But we will prevail, there is no reason to hide
We'll wake the anger that sleeps deep inside

Your invasion will fail

Leave while you're still alive, go in peace and harmony
But stand and I swear you will die,
In you own blood, tears and agony

Sun is rising, we're realizing that daylight has come
Is this our last day to see, our fate is called "freedom"
Mothers are lying, the children are crying
Cause they understand that the doomsday has come
That we must stand up as one for our land

There will be blood on our hands

Leave while you're still alive, go in peace and harmony
But stand and I swear you will die,
In you own blood, tears and agony

[Solo: Östros]

Leave while you're still alive, go in peace and harmony
But stand and I swear you will die,
In you own blood, tears and agony
Leave while you're still alive, go in peace and harmony
But stand and I swear you will die,
In you own blood, tears and agony

Entering Paradise

Here I stand so terrified of falling down
But I can never change the things I've done
Just let me fall from down below
Let the curtains fall 'cause I have done my show

And I can't stand this pain

Leaving my past behind
On my own I try to find my way
Searching for Paradise
And at last I will be free

Lost in time and total chaos in my mind
Shadows from my past are passing by
The greatest view appears before my eyes
As I see the gates of Paradise

Slowly I realize

I'm leaving my past behind
With all the darkness in my life
Entering Paradise
And at last I am free

[Solo: Östros/Both]

Leaving my past behind
On my own I try to find my way
Searching for Paradise
And at last I am free

I'm leaving my past behind
With all the darkness in my life
I'm entering Paradise
And at last I am free

9. Entering Paradise

10. Power of the Dragonborn

A new era is dawning, our king he has fallen
The world eater is calling, his kinsmen to arise
A man with no future, before an executioner he must kneel
With his head on the line, the bane for his savior he'll be

Here starts the path of the chosen one
Fus-Ro-Dah
Face of a nord, soul of a dragon

Hundreds of years without the dragons, the need of a hero, rises again
The power of the Dragonborn
With strength in his swords, to the ground they'll finally fall

[Solo: Östros]

His voice is like thunder, the tongue of the dragons
An ancient wisdom, mastered at the throat of the world
Absorbing souls of the "Dovas", enhancing his powers
On his journey to face the "Nordic god of destruction"

He walks the path of the chosen one
Fus-Ro-Dah
Sovngarde in reach, two fates colliding

Hundreds of years without the dragons, the need of a hero, rises again
The power of the Dragonborn
With strength in his swords, to the ground they'll finally fall

Fus-Ro-Dah, it's the voice of the Dragonborn – Fus-Ro-Dah

[Solo: Dahlin/Östros]

Here ends the path of the chosen one
Still alive, but in afterlife

Hundreds of years without the dragons, the need of a hero, rises again
The power of the Dragonborn
With strength in his swords, to the ground they'll finally fall

11. The Last Hymn to Life

No light, there's nothing there but darkness,
Only fear, is running through our veins,
Day by day, the end is getting closer
Now we pray, that there will be no pain,
In our minds, we're asking for forgiveness,
But in our hearts, we're screaming for revenge,
Where is God? 'cause he's the only witness,
When our world is coming to an end

Please remember us through time

This is how we tell our tales, that never have been told,
We gather all the memories, from the young and from the old
Immortalize our history, as carvings on the wall,
Colliding with another world, that for sure will take us all
To the stars

Now our sun, is hiding in the heavens,
As the clouds, retreating for the seas,
In our caves, the children they are crying
But the old are finally at peace,
There's a light, painting the horizon,
And a roar, gently sweeps the ground
Closing in, is fire, rain and thunder,
Yet so strange, cause there is not a sound

With our hands held to the sky, we will sing a hymn to life

This is how we tell our tales, that never have been told,
With melodies and harmonies, for the young and for the old
Time have passed,
And now at last, the end is not that far,
Uniting with another world, we're heading for the stars
Here we are, here we are

[Solo: Östros/Dahlin/Östros]

Please remember us through time, we will sing a hymn to life

This is how we tell our tales, that never have been told,
We gather all the memories, from the young and from the old
Immortalize our history, as carvings on the wall,
Colliding with another world, that for sure will take us all
This is how we tell our tales, that never have been told,
With melodies and harmonies, for the young and for the old
Time have passed,
And now at last, the end is not that far,
Uniting with another world, we're heading for the stars

(Have you ever thought of things, you should have done in life,
Always feeling it's too late, as time is passing by,
Knowing that your soul is clean, with all the things you've done,
And in your mind there's no regrets, not a single one)

This is how we tell our tales, that never have been told,
With melodies and harmonies, for the young and for the old
Time have passed,
And now at last, the end is not that far,
Uniting with another world, we will be stars
Here we are

(Suddenly you see things clear, and there's an inner voice:
Close your eyes and just let go, cause there's no other choice,
Pictures passing through your mind, of how you've lived so far,
Be at peace with space and time, reach out for the stars)

[Outro Solo: Halén]
