Lyrics: In Darkness

it never really started
yet we have reached the end
cause nothing lasts forever
in our own minds
we knew it could not happen
in silence so resigned
the end owes no forgiveness
to the night

I don’t want this to be something I cannot control
the dark in our mind seem to take on a life of its own
with every day in an absence of light and time
I don't want this to be
don't want this to be our lives
in darkness and out of control

what could eventually be
so far from what we are
when nothing seems to matter
in the end
lost without an insight
while trying to escape
never will our mindset
let us out

Santeri Kallio - Keyboards ( Amorphis )
Victor Brandt - Bass ( Dimmu Borgir )

a very heavy hitter lineup there, if you ask me.

[Cruxvae]

For 20 years, I have been curious about what it would sound like if Mikael did something where he sang clean the whole time. So glad I am finally getting an answer!

[mitchb.]

"In how many bands would you like to sing? Mikael Stanne, yes!"

[midwinterwinds]

So glad to see Vesa Ranta back behind the drums

[stonervinch]

Mikael Stanne is everywhere this year :D. This song is amazing, can't wait for the album !!

[parisdimitropoulos]

Being a huge fan of Sentenced since my young age and seeing now Vesa Ranta behind the drum set in a band that puts beautiful music again out makes me wanna cry from happiness!!

[ScottishImmortal]

I love how Markus decided to get some friends together to make music of a certain sound that the musicians aren't necessarily known for, and they proceed to absolutely nail it! Speaks volumes to the artistry of all the musicians involved.

[matthiars]

I am very happy for Vesa Ranta!! Sentenced always in my heart!

[Anderson_Lopes]

Mikael should start a new band singing with clean vocals! I've been saying this for years! Finally happened and sounds amazing!

[eekenulv]

2024 is a Stanne year ....
OMG an explosion of amazing stuff

such a great voice

[Akherousia]

Stanne's in his workaholic arc and I'm here for it

[evanluis]

I love Cemetery Skyline, Dark tranquility, The halo effect and Gran cavader and love all Mikael Stanne project🔥🔥🔥

[Khazandar]

At this point, I'm fully convinced that Stanne just cannot do any wrong. He joins or starts a project, it's somehow amazing every time xD

[WernerKust]

Wow, this sounds like Gothic Depeche Mode. Good stuff!

[MetalPilgrimUA]

I love how different Mikael's voice sounds in every of his projects!

[BigD]

Im sorry, but Markus Vanhala will go down as one of Metals' greatest ever. Period. No questions asked.

[denizozturk]

It is always a great pleasure to see Markus Vanhala live!

[Ebi-mayodayo]

ミカエルの新たな境地。

この路線でもイケるとは、目の当たりにすると感慨深い。
最高だ。

[glacialregret]

This song, and Violent Storm, are my two favorite songs right now...period. Such good stuff!

[chondrinenigma]

I'm a simple metal fan; I see Mikael Stanne in a music video thumbnail, I click on it.
