about

About the song:

This song was composed during the deepest midwinter months of Finland inside my "home bunker". I wanted the song to start with some kind of mystical witch-drum sounds and after that kick in these orcherstral rhythm patterns that build up to explode into this fast metal track. Already at this point it became clear that this should be the opening track.

The lyrics of the song are about the idea that time here is limited, it waits for no one and hence should be used accordingly. There was supposed to be a movie quote in the end from the film Lucy, but due to not being certain about copyrights I decided to drop it from the final version.

Fun fact: I originally came up with the main melody while watching The Moomins cartoon TV series.

lyrics

Lyrics:

We keep on looking for answers.
To the point we cross that line.

Our fight runs out at a rapid rate.
But yet we bleed for another day.

Give yourself over to chaos.
Give yourself over to chaos.
With unrelenting ferocity.

Our final act has just begun.
And the past is done.
Time will not wait for us.

This is just a fade in and counting.
Exhale the past.
This is just a fade in and counting.
Strike!
Then swiftly fade out.

There ain't no lead of divinity.
There are no binding ties.

You'll come to see what it's all about.
Our time ain't up but it's running out.

Give yourself over to chaos.
Give yourself over to chaos.
There will be no infinity.

Time waits for no one.

Our final act has just begun.
And the past is done.
Time will not wait for us.

This is just a fade in and counting.
Exhale the past.
This is just a fade in and counting.
Strike!
Then swiftly fade out.
