Magnficent



Oh, such a breathtaking sight,
Of purest beauty and innocence.
Uncorrupted by this cruel world,
Spirits not crushed by this cold life.
I can't look away...

You bathe in the sunlight of spring,
While I'm forever stuck in this dreary autumn.
Like a flower that will never bloom,
Forever in this dreary autumn.

You glow with the warmth of the sun,
But your rays don't reach me.
In the cold, dreary autumn,
The sun doesn't warm...

This dreadful emptiness,
The cold, cold world.
You slammed the door on me,
you locked me in the cold.

I craved your warmth,
But it was to late.
Too late you realized,
That I was in the cold.

I am sold, this song sends chills through my body. From the very shrieks to the atmospheric tone that this song has created, it does bring myself to sadness yet I see a sense of hope in it. Not very many bands have managed to do so. They have definitely matured with their use of clean vocals, great song structures, strategically placed keyboards, and subtle drum patterns I don't understand why I hated this at first. Perhaps it was because my musical tastes were immature, my palate was not ready for such magnificence. The use of theory is evident, this is not mindless "I like the way it sounds", it's music that plays tricks on you, sends you through a roller coaster, sends you through Life. They've thrown away their use of pseudonyms and corpse paint, and all it has done is promote their seriousness. This song contains the much needed hope that I had always wished for. I have delved into death to come out with the desire to live. . .


So Sad. . .
